Living the good life I see

Beautiful chant we sang at the church of interbeing yesterday

"When inward tenderness
finds the secret hurt,
pain itself will crack the rock
and Ah! Let the soul emerge."

Rumi

That looks epic, strong ancient Egyptian vibes

Ah, probably this one

Curious which model and which topic

I love smoothie bowls.
I get to pretend to eat something healthy, but it's basically a bowl of ice cream 😁

Becoming relevant again as I'm in Flores, Guatemala, now, heading to Tikal soon.

Poast more violin! Poast more singing! The people demand it!

AI generated image that shows a great, half man, half Mayan ruin, in front of jungle

Cool image the AI came up with. Wanted to illustrate my journey to Mexico so far.

Forgot my laptop at the last place I was staying at, I think my subconscious is trying to tell me something....

I've been traveling here in the Yucatan area of Mexico for the past week and notice myself dragged into the traveler lifestyle. Really hard to find my own way when there are obvious paths to follow.

Suddenly feeling tender nostalgia and a sense of home, entering a random bookstore in Merida, Mexico. Don't read the language well, yet, but bookstores are bookstores.

What's the occasion? Luigi?

Student: I understand recognition of awareness, but I sense there might be something subtler I'm missing. Can you point me to it?

Why is this moment | experience not complete, not whole, not perfect?

Yes, mom, I should be packing, but I'm having a meditative insight talking to my AI, ok?!?

Stunned by the depth of knowledge in symbolism and images.
And the friendly eliciting attitude is good for sharing and introspection

Yeah, it's pretty great for that

oooh, or maybe this one?
love the texture in the wall on the left, the nebula on the right, the woods and moss, the rift and energy core, tough choice, tough choice

crazy how you can feel seen by an AI image generator...

Let Us Sing of the Syncretic Gods of Outcasts and Wanderers The Emerald · Episode

The episode

Was touched by listening to the Emerald's podcast on syncretic gods of wandering.
Touches on this sense of being slightly lost and away from home and how that is part of the human experience.
That every deeply rooted people wandered there at some point.
