Tom Segura wisdom, Harvard Philosophy Lectures, time travel vs memory, ideals, goals beyond surviving, tea drinker habits, and communication!

"Doesn't really like."
"Really doesn't like."
Word placement matters.

"The meaning of life is...getting the f**k home." - Tom Segura (If you think deep enough, this really does address most religious/spiritual end goals - getting back to the Source, getting back to God, becoming One with the Universe, etc).

12 Free Harvard Philosophy Lectures on Justice (because who wants to pay for an education when you can get it online for free?): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBdfcR-8hEY&list=PL72C62342291D5DAE

Taurid Meteor Shower this week and next! Look up!!!

....I've reached my quota for spilling things this week...

What if time travel is real, but it only happens in your mind and we call it "memory". You can revisit moments, reconfigure them, explore all of the possibilities, but because everything has already happened, all the possibilities already collapses into the timeline, nothing changes when you revert back to the present? Hmmm...

“Life is to be lived, not controlled; and humanity is won by continuing to play in face of certain defeat.” – Ralph Ellison

What ideals are we striving for? What does a Utopia really look like? Is it impossible to say because everyone has a different view of it?

What goals beyond surviving do we want to achieve? Space Travel? A society of play? Full understanding of ourselves and this world? (Is that possible?)

"There are times in life when people must know when not to let go. Balloons are designed to teach small children this." - Terry Pratchett

With moving comes a semi-spontaneous cross-country road trip. New Orleans to St. Louis to Denver? Tennessee to St. Louis to Denver? Which route to take?! Aghhh! 

How some people use tea strainers while others just throw the tea leaves in the cup and drink it.

Appreciating differences. 

Communication...makes the world go 'round!

:-D
