So much is hidden that is right before our eyes.
Isn't it strange that we have to imagine what it is like to be a newborn? Say you just 'arrived' today; you pretty much might accept all that is. You know little or nothing, not unlike the remainder of our lives. So you laugh and cry. You feel true love along with uncommunicable fear. Never is...
Neighborhood smells different--it smells different. Maybe I'm making a big deal of nothing, maybe it was some fleeting aroma set to rise away--maybe it isn't my neighborhoods new mark.
Maybe it is, isn't.
It's just alarming, how you walk in on something new without no one even warning you before you walk out your door or open your eyes--just...

I recently had an email exchange about Space Collective with our well-known friend, Obviously Subtle . In the email, he said something that really stuck with me. Referring to what Space Collective is all about, he called it "post religion and post politics."
Of course, I already knew what Space Collective was about before I read...
It is undeniable that the world has grown increasingly complex, and it has become increasingly complex to live in. I mean this not only in the sense of there being more and more factors and information to know of and respond to, but in the sense that new technology and global interconnectedness creates new and increasingly bizarre situations,...
We are, as specie, vastly underestimating the speed with which we are approaching the moment of singularity. Though it is true that most of us have heard about or are involved, to this or that extent, with the coming technological singularity, it is also true that the vast majority of those involved are underestimating the immensity of the change...
