Something to consider on this day - the longest one of the calendar year by sunlight standards and Earth position. Yep, the earth is constantly moving and tipping and the Sun is actually not budging an inch. This is probably a metaphor in ways for so many of us down on this tiny planet. I think that we primarily feel falsely empowered and almost too superior at times to recognize that we are mainly just pawns of the Sun. It is just throwing these planets around on a string in this enormous galaxy. It's true, and the universe is the master (of our souls if one will). Think about just how petty so so so many of the things that run through our mad minds become when we view life and being in this form of perspective. It's powerful. And yeah it maybe forces us to face the fact that we won't live forever and that our time is pretty precious, but we can surely make the most of it. After all, we are really just travelers around this giant star for an indefinite amount of orbits. maybe 10 times, maybe 76, maybe even a fraction of a single spin. It's true, and the most definite proof of living from the inside-out and defining our time here, and working to do our very best to tuning out the manufactured and mundane and anything otherwise. Yeah, there are things we need to do to live and make a living, but freedom in genuine form comes from how our minds work, how we view our existence, and how we choose to devote our attention over periods of time. Damn, good stuff in here :)
Cheers
