Sandbox BeaconTake a StrollThroughYour Mind

December 15, 2017

Another, Friday, night, and I ain't got nobody!...Yea!! Liar! Liar!...We, always, have, someone, here, at WA! I, keep, my, email, on WA, and it, bings, all day! That, happened, today, as well...Several, conversations...man, you guys, are getting more profound, everyday!! I, love, it! Such truths, from the heart...All, honesty! People, facing, issues, with clarity. Objectively, without the mushy, feelings. Sounds, cold...No, Acceptance.

Feelings, are subjective...limited, view-point...ones, own. Sometimes, the mind is a very dangerous, place to go...The, mind can be a very dark alley...Go there, alone...you may get mugged!...3rd Step of Recovery..."We, turned, our will (thoughts), and our lives(actions), over to the care of God, as We understand, Him!"

All, actions, are preceeded by, thought. Thoughts, become behaviors. It, is much, nicer, for all, if, we behave, nicely, toward, others. This, sometimes, is difficult, where trust, issues, are present. Fear!...We, are blessed, to be, here, all together, growing, and sharing, like a Functional, family!!...Wow!...I, don't know, where that came from!! LOL

Break-time! Music!!...Inspired, by, pals, today...

"Whiter Shade of Pale"- Procol Harem...never, really, listened, as today...right after, meditation!...

"A Whiter Shade Of Pale" We skipped the light fandango

turned cartwheels 'cross the floor

I was feeling kinda seasick

but the crowd called out for more

The room was humming harder

as the ceiling flew away

When we called out for another drink

the waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later

as the miller told his tale that her face,

at first just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, 'There is no reason and the truth is plain to see.'

But I wandered through my playing cards

and would not let her be one of sixteen vestal virgins

who were leaving for the coast

and although my eyes were open

they might have just as well've been closed

She said, 'I'm home on shore leave,'

though in truth we were at sea

so I took her by the looking glass

and forced her to agree saying,

'You must be the mermaid who took Neptune for a ride.'

But she smiled at me so sadly that my anger straightway died

If music be the food of love

then laughter is its queen

and likewise if behind is in front

then dirt in truth is clean

My mouth by then like cardboard

seemed to slip straight through my head

So we crash-dived straightway quickly and attacked the ocean bed

16..Vessel, Virgins..."In, Ancient Rome...Women, freed of the social, obligations to marry, and bear children, and took a vow, of chastiy, devoted to study of state rituals...off-limits, to male, colleges of priests." (wikipedia)

1967! You've got mail!... "Whiter Shade of Pale", arrived, for Christmas, cracked, but, playable...a real teasure!! San Francisco! My, brother, Chris, had moved, with, Karen...."Are You going, to San Francisco? Be, sure to wear, some flowers, in your hair!"

Chris and Karen, together, in high school... Both, intellectual, deep, philosophical, seemed, well, suited, I, thought...Scorpio/Capricorn...Water/Earth...He, was water! She, was the office manager!...They, graduated, June, of 1966, and went off to Antioch, Ohio, private Christian college... Well, that didn't last, long!...Soon, from, Antioch, they headed to San Francisco...Fillmore, district, on, Steiner, street.

Trip to San Francisco, Thanksgiving, 1967...another, Mom, story.

Chris, has, moved, to San Francisco, and Mom, was not, really, happy...Looking, back, we, took, many, trips, at, Thanksgiving... Mom, booked, a flight, for, both, my, sister, and I, to go, as, well. Very, cool, to, leave, school, early, so, we, didn't have, the air traffic...rarely, missed, school, so this?...Another, journey!!

I've, mentioned, before, Mom,was, a cook-alcoholic!!...Had, to, cook!! Trip, to Chris and Karen's? "She's no cook, I'll, make, Sarma!"... Serbian, stuffed, cabbage! Now, imagine, this...She's cooking this in, Michigan. This, afternoon, we fly out, from, Detroit, Metro!...We're all, packed, and ready, to go! Car's, packed! Just, waiting, for, Mom...She, walks, out, with a dutch oven pot of sarma!...It's going with us, to San Francisco!!... My, sister, and, I, were, both, hysterical and appalled!! LOAO, all, the way, to the airport!! Taxi driver, thought, we, were, nuts!!... "Nuts, don't fall, far from the tree!!"

Upon, arriving, for, our flight, we checked, in our bags, but not the sarma! Thank, goodness, Mom didn't trust, either, one of us, to carry, the pot, down the aisle, with all, those, people!! Times, like, this, only, a sister, can, really share!! The, plane, trip, was, rather, uneventful, except, everyone, around, us, was wondering, what they were serving, for, dinner!! Mom's, pot, was wafting, from under, her, seat!! As, the plane, touched, down, Mom, bellows, out, Bravo!!...always, the opera diva, and enthusist!!

We, made, it, to the apartment, over, a store...this, is different! Hmm... Mom's, not really, excited, about the bed, made, of 2 doors, on, concrete, blocks!!...Weekend, was, strolling, around, streets, of SanFranisco, seeing the Fillmore, where, all the great, bands, were, booked, getting, those psychedelic posters, big and postcards!...What, an experience, for this, 9th, grader! Weekend, was, over, and off, we went...Mom, was very concerned, about, Chris' color, health, and overall, declining welfare.

Enter, the Classroom, folks! Building: Exterior Immunity

We, begin, again, with a polarity(opposites) Interior-Yin/Exterior-Yang. We'll, began with the exterior.

Most, immune, problems, begin, on the exterior of the body, active, and acute, but of short, duration.

Externals, include, skin, muscles, hair, tendons, and all, orafices, as the mouth, and throat, as, well, as sexual, and excretory. Joints, and exterior, of bones, not the marrow, where stem cells, are located, and blood reproduced.

External, conditions, are of sudden onset, and usually, of short duration...not chronic. Infections, to the eyes, ears nose, throat. Sexual, diseases, accidents, to muscles, and bones, not effecting internal, organs. Treating, of such, conditons, should, be rapid, therefore, inhibiting, infections, to internalize, and become, chronic! Sweating, greatly increase, the release of toxins, through the pores, and cleanses. If, a person, is weak, psychically, to start, with...these, pathogens, can travel, very, quickly, the inside. I'm, reminded, of this, as I heard of many, people, getting, staph, and yeast infections, while in the hospital! Makes, sense, to me. Note...treatment, for External, conditions, that are really, internal, can be, very detrimental! Sweating, for internal, problem?... No!!

External, conditions, such, as colds, and flu, if not treated, may, become, pneumonia, or bronchitis.

It, is Friday, night, ...No, now, Saturday, afternoon...so, class..., we will, look, further,. into the External ImmuneCondition, as this, story, continues...leaving the Internal, coming, soon.

I'm wrapping this, up...without, a song, but, a hint..."Time is on, my, side..." When, God's working, it's nothing, half-assed, but preefection!... Note, to self...stay out of His, way, unless, called!!

Sorry, if this, is, bit disjointed, but 3 hours of sleep...going to take a nap!ZZZzzzzz.....

If, songs, come, out, bunched, up...haven't learned, how to single space...Sigh!

God Bless, this, Happy Sandbox...
