Dots, specs, shapes and sounds

Dots, specs, shapes and sounds

d15cb2bf.png



"I am a mere dot"

A cosmic spec

Interwoven as tapestry

One step, then another

Onward to the edge


  • One Earth
  • Humankind
  • Nature
  • Celestial
  • Stagnant or ever changing--ever moving


Dots and circles

Squares

Triangles

Boxes inside or out

Matrixed all in all


  • I see
  • I feel
  • I listen
  • I hear
  • I learn and grow


Yes, "Onward to the Edge"

Content with just the questions

And at least for now, like the tides--ebbing and flowing--searching for enlightenment

Sharing in the path, Sharing in the Earth, Sharing in the Sun and Moon, Sharing in the Yin and Yang

One to One, One to Many, Many to One and Many to Many


  • Awakened
  • Enlightened
  • Embracing the cycle of life
  • Seeds of growth
  • Planted in the essence of our being

Complex

Chaotic

Simple

Yet in the end;

I am, because we are


Inspired by Debasish Majumder, Savvy Raj, Ali Anani, Harvey Lloyd, Sarah Elkins, Deb Helfrich and so many others.

To all, keep making a difference in a world needing difference making. Daring to take the steps to rise above it all and make this world a better place on a collective journey focused on Peace, Positivity, Kindness and Humanitarian Goodwill.  Rock on my friends!

Ali \ud83d\udc1d Anani, Brand Ambassador @beBee Thank you Ali for the reinforcement. I thought it interesting that right after I made the comment at #23 I just happened to see Javier's post on LinkedIn that drew me back to beBee: The context was "Coexisting together" https://www.bebee.com/producer/@fernando-luque/bebee-linkedin-coexistiendo-juntos Javier uses a quote up front in that article that is, in one aspect, spot on with respect to the affinities we find ourselves drawn to--as if in "an attractive force between substances or particles that causes them to enter into and remain in...combination." "With such a lack of people with whom to coexist, as there is today, what can a man of sensitivity do, if not invent his friend, or at least, his companions in spirit?" Fernando Pessoa

Thank you Joel Anderson. I simply concur completely with you "I have found over time that regardless of who I tag, who reads one musing over another, that the interactions, ensuing conversations and thoughts on this site are absolutely refreshing". I am in a position to approve your statemet as most of my buzzes have enjoyed extensive discussions and few of them crossing the 300 mark comments. I have writen a miminum of twenty buzzes based on the comments that my buzzes received that triggered new thoughts. Yes beBee is the platform. I know that Javier \ud83d\udc1d beBee will approve my comment because he has noticed the engagement and was joyful about it.

As I wrote this post, it actually made me think of another one I wrote recently: https://www.bebee.com/producer/@joel-anderson/6-degrees-of-separation-peace-positivity-kindness-and-humanitarian-goodwill In the grand scheme of specs I find myself somewhat conflicted. In this one I specifically called out six specs who touch my search for my horizon. The conflict in view of my 6 degress of separation or connection as Ali \ud83d\udc1d Anani, Brand Ambassador @beBee might say is that I could have tagged so many others. Despite that, and despite my small sphere of influence, I have found over time that regardless of who I tag, who reads one musing over another, that the interactions, ensuing conversations and thoughts on this site are absolutely refreshing. For me, there is immense value in the exchange and dialogue of so many folks, that yes, are way smarter than me. If I can touch one person and then another, and they one, two or three others then as for me, I am a happy camper. Thank you all: those whom I mentioned, those whom I inadvertently excluded, and those who just took the time to read, comment and share. So with that, this simple little cosmic spec would like to say thank you to Javier \ud83d\udc1d beBee for creating such an interactive and rewarding site. Please pass on the same to your team. And with that I will end again with "Rock on my friends!"

Randall Burns I think there must be something in the water here in Kansas or maybe even the specs of "dust in the wind." On a funny no kidding note, when I was a kid every once in a while they would come practice in Manhattan and my brother and I would listen to them. Still a huge fan. Thanks so much.

Harvey Lloyd As Lenny Pepperbottom would say "How neat is that?" I think I have warped my wife. We were driving home awhile back and wallah, she screams out (and yes, I thought we were about to have a wreck) THERE IT IS, THERE IT IS!!! I slammed on the breaks and slowed to a crawl looking for whatever it was that had caused her such alarm. She just started laughing (she had been preparing for this moment and had checked to make sure there wasnt any traffic). She pointed and in the back yard of a house was an 8' metal silhouette of, Yep--Sasquatch.

You not fooling me Joel Anderson, i know the code word for search for Sasquatch. We search for the same creature of meaning. Much to the dismay of our spousal units sometimes. So please keep us abreast of the sittings of Sasquatch.

Ah to be a spec would be recognize our place within such a universe. It brings wonder and excitement to the challenge of potential of such a small circle in such a large one. Some deep thoughts of existence. Is this a 60's flashback or Jurassic period revelation. Regardless it is where we find ourselves. I enjoy the aspect of freedom to wonder about such topics as Ali \ud83d\udc1d Anani, Brand Ambassador @beBee brings and this post espouses. It seems such a waste to think our circle is larger than it is. We spend more time with magic in presenting the larger circle while we all know the spec is a spec within the cosmological precepts we think we have discovered. Thanks for your thoughts and yes the journey is the goal.

This is an example of a buzz that looks simple, but is filled with thoughts. I am honored to have inspired you in any way Joel Anderson. Your wrote "Onward to the Edge". yes, you deserve to be there for this is the creative edge, the edge of finding new ways, new patterns and new approaches. I must tag Harvey Lloyd for he is mentioned in the buzz."
