163. The Sacred and Profane Project—Meet the Places and Spaces I Was Raised: Part Fifteen—Countdown 8: Land Ahoy! All-Hands On Deck! Prepare for Landing! Wheels Down! Initiate Reentry!—Waaaiiit A Minute! Splashdown? Recovery? Into Station Platform? Docking at Pier? At the Gate? Aye, Aye, Aye? Now Hear This: "Holding Pattern* or Lost in Space**?” I have been asked in a variety of ways (surreptitiously interviewed?) about where I have been: why, how, and when, what did I see and do, who was I with or meet? Too many anecdotes for here, but because of the way I was asked, the reaction and response, I get the feeling there is an element of “chest thumping” or "one-uppersonship" or a "pissing contest” going on, as if experiencing and traveling to and/or through some place or space somehow legitimized a claim to ownership? This has come up enough that it was added to the list of "assertions, discrepancies, inferences, intimations, innuendos, rumors, suggestions, speculations, zingers (whatever you want to call them)” to be addressed. In context of "The Sacred and Profane Project,” this is a great quote to ground the 'Meet the Places and Spaces I Was Raised' sub-series: “You can’t really know where you are going until you know where you have been.”—Maya Angelou Duly noted— -stanzas 17-32: "the soul"*** -holding patterns, held in place, -loose in thoughts, lost in space. -bobbing, weaving, floating, drifting,  -hurtling through air-land-sea-time shifting. -body spinning, mind reeling, -disorienting tumbling feeling. -suspended animations slowing, -sentient observations flowing. -coming about, full circle’s loop: -miasma, plasma, primordial soup. -at last: astral, celestial, cosmic projections, -avast: galatic, planetary, stellar interjections. -from this perspective, observe sensories, -collectives of past, present, future centuries. -retraction/extension, explosions colliding, -expansion/contraction, implosions uniting. -omniuniverses expanding to beginnings, -metamultiverses shrinking to endings. -then as the world turns topsy-turvy, -when as the globe spins nervy-dervy, -winds calm, clouds part; waves, smoke, dust settle: -planet shows its true colors of earthtones' mettle. -up, down, all around, views from vaunted vantage points: -deserts, fields, forests, mountains, oceans, space adjoints, -from here you see biospheres of bubbles (shells of fears), -overthere they flee telomeres of troubles (swells of tears). -hey zeus, is this what you intend, what you want? -jésus and betelgeuse to rend and eternally haunt? -universe paid to pin a tell on a donkey? -multiverse paid to pen a tale of a monkey? -my soul for haven, hire, rent, or sale? -nah, nope, no: not my loves nor i for sell!

#Ourstory: "do you remember, what I told you, that we would be coming back, today we are going to wake people up", "we are going to see a massive head, of course in my opinion, a dragon", as coordinates of another becomes clear, "America" was named for "Amaru-Ka", the feathered serpent's remains lay throughout northeast United States- https://mythlok.com/amaru/ "Amaru, a mythical creature featured in Inca mythology, is depicted as a double-headed serpent or dragon"- it's head is in Louisianna, wraps around embayment, where it was impacted December 16, 1811, feathers quite visible through northeastern states... ...more fossilized remains throughout northwestern Africa- https://lnkd.in/eJWN88Ct "Gaia, the Earth, gave birth to Typhon in Asia Minor", apparently in last breath, throwing up on an enormous fish, fossilized just below, that the eye had rolled out of, just below the fish, "Eye of Sahara", is its actual eyeball... #Biogeology: https://lnkd.in/eW_57drD -massive wildlife had grown during "a time without a moon", on the side it was traveling, after splitting Pangaea at Mediterranean sea 13kya., until a comet hit Hudson Bay 11kya., resetting our dynamo- -now remnants dotting our landscapes- -"The Year of the Dragon"- -reasons dragons are also quite famous in China, just upstream from the city of Yunnan, following this river, into its mouth of extremely sharp teeth, look-up, as eyes stare back, follow its crown, mountain ranges become shoulders of wings,.. Lugu lake is just off its left eye, "tears of the dragon",.. everyone Please meet, my own personal discovery, "Yunnan the Dragon"- -evolution is cyclical- -biological remains become geological features, Biology turned Geology, may be reasons for "Fairy-tales of Dragons & Giants in those days", seems there a little more to this story- -what really happened is so much more AMAZING!!!- -remember- "find the truths behind the myths"

Someone wise already said it all. "The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known." - Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot https://lnkd.in/eHHiYmfN #PermaCrisis #ProtractedConflicts #War #HumanRights #Peace #Earth

That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.
