There's really nothing else

[Devin]

The world can be so boring, you literally can run out of things to do, see, or experience in the world. You literally can run out of the point of it.

 

Luckily, something that has never run out for me or seems like it can run out, is the peacefulness. Aside from the world, there's the deep filling, satisfying, replenishing peace, like your favorite blanket and most comfortable place when you were a little kid. It doesn't get old

[Phil]

There’s always consciously creating. 

[Devin]

@Phil maybe after some rest I will agree, but I feel like it will all get boring

[Devin]

How do you turn the illusion back on? I want to be like a kid playing make believe. I don't want a rigged deck, I don't want to consciously create, I want surprise and adventure.

[Devin]

Got it, whhew, another tired close one.

Just follow the feelings, do what you want, it's back.

 

Sweet dreams everyone

[Devin]

The consciously creating still doesn't resonate with me, I prefer more just being along for the ride.

 

I've found I more and more enjoy the smaller things over the grand. I prefer watching the original grinch, having plain rice with just salt and butter, clean water, eating on the floor, sunbathing half the day away, staying up all night watching the sky, watching a storm, gardening, cooking, cleaning, fixing things.

 

Somehow I now love those things more than travelling and shows and new restaurants, which I used to think I loved. Now when I think about what to do I think about the big things and feel nothing, I never remember the small things, that's what I actually love.

If an author is writing a story, is the story predetermined? 

[Devin]

@Phil @Mandy

Thank you two. Yeah the author is making the story, I guess it still is consciously creating, I think I mean take a break for the simpler things or read what's already written, taking a break from the more complicated things. Wow, that's a weird feeling or realization, the small things are consciously created, as weird as that being surprising to me sounds; I want to sit outside, see the sky and clouds and fields and birds and butterflies.

@Devin

Heck yeah. Soak it up while ya can! That stuff won’t be around much longer.
