50 HEARTS AND by (me!) sandra, tvgp

no time to finish thinking of a title.   as i mentioned on squidmann blog today.   i'm at the pleasanton library.  my own computer is being attacked again by the disappearing screen virus.   waiting to see dr. larry robinson  -again

anyway..  here at the library.   computer/internet is free  -but!   you only have 40 minutes..

and this CLOCK AT THE TOP reminds you exactly how long you have left.   write now, i have

/let me peek.  i covered it with a paper so as not to be distracted.

oh my God...  27

no, 26

this is awful.    i've so much to say:

k-

working on a poem about the NIF/LLNL   -inspired by colm thomas whelan.

thinking about how much I CANT WAIT to share the pictures from yesterdays walk.    had breakfast/coffee with my beloved friend, catherine teeter and then must have seen some 50!+ hearts on my walk

did not take a picture of every single one, but   -took a picture of very many

so many!   most on the ground, created by the sun coming through the trees, light/shadows landing on the sidewalk, the street, the grass

can't share them until my computer is up and running again.   oh! the frustration

and what else..

watching the science channel again...   here's how it shows:    started wonderin' about the speed of thought.

hmmm.     and, if you remember something from a long time ago, and then imagine something in the far, far future    -wonder if that distance can be measured

and then...    oh!  i thought about how much the mind is to the human body, as quantam physics is to   -regular physics

you know..   how once you get to quantam level   -all the rules break, change.. everything becomes unpredictible

isn't that same thing true about our minds.   that is...  our physical bodies acknowledge the three dimensions..  up, down, left, write, backward, forward..

but, with our imaginations we can break all those rules   -all those physically limiting truths

i just traveled to new york to be with my handsome prince...   but i didn't do it physically.

but Wow!   -i mean..  even in my mind...     

anyway..

last thing before i go...    was thinkin' about what i said about blogs..   a long time ago.   how,   "blogs are as important to writers as a mother's breast is to a new born

-everything else is just formula."

write.

then it hit me..    God is an original.   of course!    you can't put God inside a formula.    probably why it's harder for match/science types to figure things out..

but i came to this conclusion...    when they do find the way to create energy the same way the sun creates energy

which i believe is acheivable

it won't be a formula.

and last, last, last...    as i only have...  oh!  18...

17...

even with such a noble goal acheived:   energy for all of humanity for all of time!

we will still need to remember

or better said,   we will be instantly reminded

that man does not live on bread alone.    just look at us now..   this very generation, here in pleasanton, california

we do not need to worry about oxygen, or the sun running out...  or concern ourselves with the whereabouts of fresh, drinking water...   we have food, shelter, air condioning, public education, freedom of religion..

streets, electricity, shopping malls..  fast food, slow food...   a great climate... beauty..  

a charming downtown...   gorgeous parks...     what more could we ask for?    -and yet..  look at the wants and needs...   the dysfunctional families.   the divorces..   the counselors offices filled...  children commiting suicide..  alcoholics...   drug addicts...  gambling addicts..   the greed...   the power plays...  the politics..

i could go on and on...

so, yes..  i pray for the success of the NIF project...   and i fully believe the goal is acheivable

"energy for all of humanity for all of time!"

but we are still left with a quite a bit of work to do, aren't we...

so help us God.

halleluhjah!  and amen!


oh look, at that!   13 minutes to spare....
