Martin Luther King: “In spite of these spectacular strides in science and technology, and still unlimited ones to come, something basic is missing. There is a sort of poverty of the spirit which stands in glaring contrast to our scientific and technological abundance.”
The law is a...
A web of shame,
A spiders game.
How do we justify?
Try some more,
Esprit de corps.
Suppress the hue and cry.

The human mind is an awful thing,
In it's selfish dysfunctional glory.
For all it's sophisticated look,
The bottom line tends to be gory.
Left to it's own...
I got reminded of that David Bowie song.
Burnout and started crying at the office last friday. I had to leave early because i felt too angry.
I am crying now because i had to leave work. Bc of this office i got some self esteem, but the workload is too much for me. I feel so sorry for my...
Fairly tired today, I'm on a new round at work. A new area and clients always causes a degree of nervousness. But my anxiety for these new rounds has steadily declined. fact, there was only one location where I had high anxiety before starting, and it turned out to be a lovely round. Being...
I'm not blogging anywhere near as often as I used to. This morning I felt the urge to write, and it's only now, in the late afternoon that I figured I'd sit down and get started. Not that I haven't been sat in front of my computer all day as usual - because I have.
Went through some new music...
I'm hiding away,
in my favorite place,
Where I can go when I'm

Remembering you and the feelings i felt at the time. Loving you was like paradise to me, with its good and bad.
I felt like now that i know there is someone like you in the world, someone with a heart of gold i can bear all the unhappiness i will endure from now on. Maybe i idealized you too...
I thought I saw a despot,
A shooting at a duck!
I looked again and saw it was,
A golden clusterphuck!
If ignorance enables it,
We'll look a right old schmuck!
The chutzpah of our leadership,
Just how much do they suck?
(and really just how much,
do you give a flying phuck?)
While all across...
Tonight has been a big one for me. Not because of an event or someone visiting.
Tonight is a big night because I am facing what I internally have feared for a long time. Failure. Or more specifically perpetual failure. Constantly expecting myself to fail somehow and avoiding to try entirely to...
When I was growing up I was really into The Sandman graphic novels (comics). My favourite character was Delerium. I relate to her on so many levels... Originally she was Delight until her brother Destruction did something that traumatized her and she became Delerium. I love her and her...
Love your mistakes, for that's all it takes,
To reach some enlightenment.
For each one you make is like tastiest cake,
Or wine with a perfect ferment.
Because so you see, eventually,
It's only by making these bloomers.
That you'll ever learn, to thus overturn,
The mistakes of the other...
This is my serpentine crystal egg, it's just as small as a small chicken egg.
I roll it around in my hand like a Chinese meditation ball
The crystals magic powers are supposed to bring you inner peace and help to get rid of chaotic emotional energy. Surprisingly it's doing just that.
I...
I grimaced as I slowly sat down in the cushioned chair next to the window in my room. The grey, evening mist swirled in the parking lot and around the drab houses and bare trees across from the hospital. I contemplated the ominous sound the doors had made when they locked behind me upon my...
Here, the imprimatur of my treatise on AI and it's place in our world.
(and can you get to the end without wishing you hadn't? And is that down to style or content?)
Or, ignoring the fancy sounding but meaningless title (I always wanted to write a treatise - not sure what it is? But it sounds...
I took the next semester off. My life briefly spun out of control. I was in and out of the hospital for a couple months. My downward spiral lead to more trauma since that's when I met the person who would later become my husband. I was lost, alone, and so, so vulnerable. Due to my overall...
The thought that I repeat myself,
Is driving me to tears,
It has to be among the,
Very greatest of my fears!
It's something that intrudes so much,
When talking oft to others.
I'd really rather opt to find,
A deafness of my druthers.
For ignorance is bliss they say,
And this one doth intrude...
The elephants in the room,
The one's are ever outside.
The one's as quiet as the tomb,
The one's they can't abide.
We're the one percenters,
We're the blackest of the sheep.
We're the great dissenters,
We're the one's who'll never sleep.
Why are we the who of this,
Why are we the chosen.

Honestly. I see alot of mixed beliefs with religion and God, heaven and the like. Good on everyone for having the views you do. Mine are... not as cut and dry. Though I'll try to shorten my thoughts as much as possible. No sense writing a novel to get across info.
I have stated a few things...
