I'm lucky enough to be located next to a strong mountain spring at the moment.

Last summer my partner and I stopped overnight at a truckstop in a small town in New Mexico during a road trip. The evidence of hydrofracking was abundant there. We both got sick after drinking the tap water.

Clark Moustakas, Loneliness:

"Without intensive ties which have genuine meaning, modern man maintains an essential anonymity in society...Associations often are on a contractual basis and the person is treated as an object or thing or commodity. The individual fulfills his role in order to attain a higher reward, not because there is intrinsic value in being one's self, but because there is an economic value toward which one is directed...In modern life, much social interaction is between surface figures or ghosts rather than real persons."

The Clark Moustakas quote rings quite nicely with your sig line Grizzly. Culture has betrayed us by adopting a vertical authority distribution system, (via dualism and a split reality model) resulting in expressions of being that are either imposing toward others or seeking of approval. If culture is to flourish then all people need to practice and become (non-reactive) decision makers and that will only happen through the medium of a horizontal authority distribution system.

Because the current systems for understanding require more and more layers of bullshit to cover the internal contradictions produced by reactive minded ghosts that insist they are real authentic people, eventually the beanstalk simply rots at the base and the giant falls from a very great height.

Try your best to not be underneath him when he falls. :partydance:

Much :lovehearts: to all.
All these things will continue as long as coercion remains a central element of our mentality.

:lol: That's funny MinM, I have always seen you as being the friendlier, less sardonic face of HMW. Maybe you are a fan then?

At any rate, I enjoy your oblique style and the many interesting bits that you post. Thanks.

Israeli police forces detained Washington Post Jerusalem Bureau Chief William Booth and an employee of The Association for Civil Rights close to Jerusalem's Damascus Gate on Tuesday.

According to another reporter at the scene, the two were detained on grounds of incitement and taken to a police station for questioning after about an hour delay.

This is a developing story.
