Welcome Samantha, I appreciate your positivity. I hope you find community here.

We’re experiencing a meaning and purpose crisis, I believe because we’ve been conditioned to be told what to do and how to think, instead of being left alone to unfold naturally in our unique way of being.

Interesting, that’s Mary, a good friend of mine from my years in Sedona. Is she on Nostr?

Fully agree

Everyone and everything is a mirror.

“What are they showing me about myself that I have been desperately avoiding?”

So bittersweetly tangible to see this.

Lived in Canggu part time for the last 7 years. Sold our little place last summer, and I spent that season driving my scooter around grieving.

I’ve changed so much since we first started living there, and so has Bali.. a relationship that inevitably and sadly grew apart.

I want to try and knock the rust off of the old Starcraft skills sometime!

I wonder if all the hotkeys are still buried deep in muscle memory somewhere..

Little drizzle of a bourbon barrel aged maple syrup and I bet those would be pretty good.
Funny enough, it’s the eggs that will keep me from trying them.

I am actively cultivating my social environment to be ever more direct and productive. To foster expansive perspectives and conversations, even if they are at first uncomfortable.

It’s easier to reshape who I spend time with as far as friends and digital social interactions. But it was far more challenging to navigate this with the moms this last weekend, in the face of generational perspectives on this emerging and confusing world.

Yes, I admit my use of the word ‘abundance’ was itself lazy. What is a good word for the exact inverse of scarcity? That was what I was attempting to communicate..

Your observation of people becoming lazy in the face of these questions is exactly why I’m attempting to grapple with them. The unknown is paralyzing when we believe we need solid structures to stand on to be ok.

What I’m attempting to communicate is that it’s possible to jump off the “sinking ship of certainty” into the “turbulent waters of the unknowable” and still feel perfectly safe. A sense of safety that isn’t tied to any conceptual framework of a physical or social structure.

This techie guy married a woman who was a former computer engineer.
Though now, both of us are far more interested in all manner of consciousness. It’s wonderful that we have shared language across two important domains.

Over the last decade she’s become a masterfully effective coach for tech execs and ceos who are wanting to learn to navigate their “inner software environment”.
I’ve become obsessed with how these emergent technologies are affecting our individual and collective consciousness, our paradigms, and our social operating systems. And how they are likely to continue to unfold and mutually evolve.

I don’t disagree in the near term. I’ve had all my ideological chips on orange since ‘17, and the cosmic roulette wheel continues to land on it.

What I’m ultimately saying is, given the fullness of time, that nothing escapes change.

Bitcoin emerged as an incredible solution to a problem that has existed for all of recorded history. But even the problem that Bitcoin solves is subject to change. The need for holding and exchanging value through time and space is likely to become obsolete.

What happens when we move to a post scarcity world? When energy is as abundant and free as the air we breathe. When anything physical is as easy to create and replicate as it is in Star Trek. Does Bitcoin still offer a solution in that future?

I don’t claim to know what the future holds, other than ever more rapid and unpredictable changes.
I am learning to dance in a world where every footfall emerges and disappears , and the tempo of the music is picking up.

For the moment, I’m delightfully dancing with Bitcoin as it is imposing a new paradigm.
What is next!? What else is possible, and where will the cosmic music lead us?
The tune is sublime
