We look at pattern through concepts. We chop it up with definitions, with stories, this is one thing and that another. And then we observe and capture in math what we see. And we can predict shit. We know that if we do certain things certain outcomes will follow. Maybe. There is always some uncertainty.… Continue reading Another way

Don’t believe something that you do believe. Are you sitting on something? Say a chair? Stop believing it’s a chair. Can you? Why not? If you have free will… Use it, to not believe it’s a chair.

That means there is a 0% chance that the one you are telling yourself is true. Zero. ZERO. And the thing is, there is no truth in any story. Not even… Continue reading Listen

We’re all waves in the ocean pretending we’re somehow apart from the rest of the ocean. Where does a wave begin and end? What does it mean to say you’re a wave? It’s just a little story. Made up and essentially meaningless. We don’t mourn the passing of one wave or celebrate the birth of… Continue reading 🌊

Let go of the tiller. Trust the universe. Go with the flow. Stop squirming. Surrender the notion of free will. Trust your intuition. Accept everything. Do what is indicated.
