Hello to all and LoneWolf
I hope you don't mind my using this gate.
I have been away for many reasons, mostly PC issues, which I am trying to upgrade.
Mainly , I live in a rural area of Western North Carolina , where Dial-Up is the only option, unless you are wealthy enough to afford satellite connections. and it is not so efficient.
I can't run video.
Also , I used to work 50-60 hours a week, which left me little time to deal with Online communication.
Now that I am retired, on Social Security, I must deal with leisure , which seems to suggest more responsibility around the homestead.
What is odd about that is , that, with less money to spend, being careful as to what I spend , I seem to have more to spend when the needs are there.
I don't have to commute , so less is spent on fuel.
Anyhow, I was going through some paperwork , and I came across an essay by SSilhouette from 8/24/07 , titled 'The Fliers Method' , about Co-Dependence and narcissism.
I went to A Place of No Pity to leave a message, without luck , due to my connection issues , or hers. I also wondered if she was still alive.
By a post here , I see she is still among us. That is good. Her essay is excellent, and her website , as is yours, Lonewolf, is quite attractive.
I recall SSil from 10 or more years ago , from Lonewolf's old Castaneda Forum , where I began my research of the Castaneda books.
Of course , my learning was not limited to Castaneda, and that is good , as it seems that Carlos became lost as well as many others of us.
'Don't follow leaders, watch...' if you get my drift.
Think for yourself seems to be a good idea, for even those we love, or who claim to love us, can mislead us to foolishness .
We mislead ourselves enough as it is.
I suppose that having regrets is foolish , but I have a few. I can only wish that I knew what I know now a little bit sooner. Seems like there's a song about that I keep hearing these days.
I will be 66 years old in a few months. I have some health problems , some my own fault , but mostly due to work in the exploitative industrial system. Makes me think of that story Carlos wrote, about Don Juan teasing him by imitating the factory whistle , calling the sheep to clock in.
My name is Bob.
I have nothing more to hide , and , when I can find the time, I am open to discussion.
If you are sincere, feel free to e-mail ; if you want to play games , you will be ignored.
Also , I have a fairly good firewall, so don't try that ****!
