Who is this beautiful little flower showing she can do blocky, pixels better than any AI this morning.
I’ve been wrenching myself away slowly and painfully from social media for the last year or so. With friends scattered accross the globe, I sometimes feel the disconnect and loneliness of not being on Facebook anymore… But whenever I try to interact with it, it feels so deeply disjointed in my body. There is always something to trigger, enrage and entangle…
In this long road to reconnection with my self and those around me, I bought a van. It was my inaugural trip this week, and it took me a few days to settle into “just this” - I was driving around trying to ‘sightsee’ - what an idiot 😂
It was Z actually who brought me back on day three as he went live. And I tuned in and drove back to my campsite, and I sat watching the waves for 7 hours, watching the wind and rain roll in and out… Watching the seagull politics and simply being witness.
Just this.

More shit that I post on Facebook:
There is a saying that proclaims that "You're a Soul having a Human experience."
No.
I think I'm an experience that goes through a chain of apparent souls.
I say "apparent" because there is nothing static about the phenomena I call "me." They say every cell in your body is replaced over a 7 to 10 year span, but I can change my mind in an instant!
What defined me as a child was not defining me as a teen. What defined me in my 20s is not me now. All through my life I was defined by my activities, opinions, vocation, and physical attributes. I am fat when I am fat, and I thankfully am for now! I'm not a student, conspiracy denier, radio DJ, card player, married, a child, a teen, a 30 something or..... well, you get the idea.
I am not having an experience.
I am the experience!
I am a moment.
This!
