So, I’ve come to see the world not as good vs evil, positive vs negative, light vs dark but instead as a balance between two essential energies. Yin AND Yang, creation AND destruction, growth AND decay, expansion AND contraction, preservation AND ruin… The value of viewing the world from this lens is simple, it allows my energy to stay expansive. You see, fear moves us into contraction, understanding/acceptance keeps us in expansion. Fear is a powerful tool of manipulation but it truly is False Evidence Appearing Real. I’ve also come to view everything around me as naturally leaning towards one energy or the other. For example, I view a hammer as a tool of creation, although it can be used for destruction, and a gun as a tool of ruin although it can be used for preservation. Similarly, I view Fiat as a tool of ruin and Bitcoin as a tool of preservation. Ultimately, this brings me to a place of gratitude for fiat, for without the havoc it has wreaked, we may never have brought into existence its’ counter balance, Bitcoin.

Enjoyed this quote from Jesse Myers “The internet is ascendant” in relation to changing world order and the 100 year change to new global reserve currency.

It always astounds me, the notes this amazing community zap me for… some days I write notes and it’s just a random thought or reply to another and I don’t really think much of it and I get significant zaps … other days I think, in my own little brain, that I’ve written something truly profound… and donuts. The logical conclusion: what I think is profound is clearly, insignificant and what I think is insignificant is obviously, profound. 🧐 😂 Regardless, I’m grateful to be able to provide zap worthy content. I’m grateful to the Nostr community for each and every zap. And I’m grateful for this space where I can share my random thoughts amongst people with hope.

Thanks @Lyn Alden I’ve just finished reading the mist born series, I caught your recommendation on your recent pod with @walker … great episode BTW. Loved the mist born series, particularly the ending. About 20years ago during a deep meditation I came up with a new definition of perfection for myself. I awakened to the understanding that true perfection was a balance between order and chaos or in other words, between preservation and ruin. Thank you for all the value you continue to add to the world. I’ve learned so much from you. 🧡

So pleased to see this little gal in my backyard today. We used to have one as a permanent resident however I, very sadly, found her run over on our street about 2 years ago. I’m hoping this new one likes what she sees and decides to make it her permanent abode. #greentreesnake
