Guidance

Friends (visible or otherwise), coworkers and other acquaintances have always seemed to be there to guide me in my life. What I know I have learned, and I realize there is more that I don’t know than do know…

Maybe you could help me to understand something: Does everybody have trouble putting knowledge into practice or to realize this is something I should do, not just think?

One of the best pieces of guidance is, “You should compare what you experience [on LSD] with other people.” Translation from that lifestyle: Compare notes, Talk with and listen to others.”

That’s another thing I still have to put into practice…

Crap. Here I go again, adding another ad nauseum to my “To Do List.”

The point being finding how to navigate life includes conversation.

What’s a conversation? Face to face interaction. (Facebook is not face to face conversation)…“Doesn’t anybody live in one place anymore?” (Carole King)

Ahhh! Music! Boy oh boy! Tons of guidance! 50’s and 60’s, what a treasure trove! And I barely used any of it! But one…Does anyone talk about it anymore? Does anyone even try? Does anyone seek? Does anyone have changes nowadays? Does anyone even try to see ? Is the road visible anymore? “There’s still time to change the road you’re on.”

I know folks exercise walking and running, but does anyone look to find the way of righteousness and get up to exercise the inner man?
