Fix me! Searched for miracle vision cure and came up with unusual article on increasing myopia and another on the limits of surgery. Also found coaching material as follows:Transformational coaching So it is with individuals. When you reach a peak, something tends to pull you back. Recognizing this and developing self-mastery with it, are your keys to fulfillment, success and outrageous freedom.Life Vision and Mission posted by TT 3:27 PMYour vision could be entitled MY BIG DREAM, and your mission is WHAT I'M GOING TO DO ABOUT IT.

To the east is the 1924 Pacific Telephone Building by A.A. Cantin of the J.R. Miller & Timothy Ludwig Pflueger architectural firm and SFMOMA by Mario Botta in front.North is the jukebox Marriott that forms part of the urban landscape of Yerba Buena Gardens.
To the south is the expansion of Moscone Center, which at this point involves numerous exit staircases along the alley wall facing Fifth & Mission Garage.

This is the day to be yourself for the purposes of the ministry. There is the story of how the auto guys figured out how to get people to donate old cars to their church for tax writeoff, they'd fix them and give them to single moms. Matthew 4:[18] As he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
[19] And he said to them, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men."

The beauty of the Poetics of Space begins in its first pages, when Bachelard considers space as frozen time. For example, a daydream, a thing of duration, has spatial dimension where it occurs, such as all alone in a room of a house.

Enjoy this little snippet from Herb Caen, "Out to Lunch," April 8, 1989.Lunch is an invitation or a brushoff... "Hey, long time no see! Let's have lunch one of these days." Other guy, a touch too eagerly: "Sure, when?" First guy, moving away rapidly: "I'll give you a call - we'll set something up." As Prof. C. Northcote Parkinson once put it so wisely, so well: "Delay is the deadliest form of denial." When a Cal student asked, "What does that mean, exactly?" Parkinson replied, "I'll tell you later."

"Dog bit me."
Geo. tells a tale of the Mill Valley P.O. One carrier whose route was up in the tony hills would go on disability twice a year for dog bites. Unlike the huge Rottweilers and mastiffs in the flatlands, his potential vicious attackers were always toys. He'd put a dog biscuit in his sock, and his mark would come up to him and nip at his heels. Quickly he'd fall to the ground, grab the "wound" and toss the biscuit. He'd get weeks off work this way, tax free pay while on disability and $1000 or $2000 insurance settlements to augment his $36,000 a year salary. No moonlightinng for Bite Me!

AT THE METThe catalog argues that the Surrealists' plays with dream imagery, assemblage and eroticism aim to reveal the hidden rule of desire behind the rational facade of mundane life in society.

What can you do to turn it around now? In school, the past is always, dog ate my homework, or there's always the future, that shibboleth of a bright and shining citadel. The present is nothing. Example.

Today, while taking a walk, I was lying
on the grass, and a van pulled up
nearby. A lady jumped out and yelled
if I was all right. She seemed a little upset that I was
doing what I was doing. I suppose I was daydreaming --
in the grass on the lawn near the Aquatic Center, and I
suppose I looked like I was in distress because I was
still. It's very nice that folks in Sequim notice old folks
like me, but it's a little difficult to daydream and watch
the clouds in a public place. I should carry some kind of
sign with me that I can drive into the grace along side
me that says: "I AM OK. I AM NOT DEAD OR DYING. I
AM MEDITATING. THANK YOU." This marks the third
time this has happened to me since I moved here. It
does say something about the aged population of
Sequim, doesn't it?
I didn't quite get this mirror right. While I'm at it there are always nocturnes to think about.

I still can't accept I did this. About ten years ago, I loaded it into the back of the car and took it to East Palo Alto, weighed it on a huge scale, about 60 pounds, and sold it for scrap.
Branden says that self is not an illusion. I see a red flag. It crosses my mind often as I think about the book I'm reading, turn off the self, the clatter. Out of nothing, something, form.Some of what I say may evoke associations with the Buddhist concept of "mindfulness." To be sure, there are some areas of agreement here--for instance, the importance of being present to what we are doing. (And sometimes I speak of living mindfully as a synonym for living conciously.) But there are differences that anyone familiar with Buddhism will recognize--for instance, I do not share the Buddhist view that self is an illusion (as I discuss in chapter 7). -- p. 65, Nathaniel Branden, The Art of Living Consciously, New York, Simon & Schuster, 1997
John Wesley Powell, Wesleyan? Yes, if his father had any influence, but he was more a keen observer and scientist. Toward the end of his life he wrote Truth and Error and Good and Evil. These may be a little difficult to find on the web.
"Sometimes at that moment [of despair] a wave of light breaks into our darkness, and it is as though a voice were saying: 'You are accepted. You are accepted, accepted by that which is greater than you...' Simply accept the fact that you are accepted!"

Took ourselves on behalf of Ranger to Shamrock Ranch for training. We must always correct him the second he shows anti-social behavior, never "That's ok, see the nice doggy over there." That's rewarding him for being aggressive. Instead, "No!" Tug on his collar if he still doesn't respond. Only when he makes the right decision, praise.
what kind of junkie are you?
