…choosing to make this the final day of my game.
It has served its purpose. Continuing this blog for another 135 days to complete the year won’t be necessary.
I am grateful to anyone who’s contributed or commented. Please enjoy prosperity in the many ways it is finding itself in your life.
You’ve been a wonderful addition.
Do you remember Sherman and Mr. Peabody? There was a cartoon when I was a kid of a scientific dog and his kid side kick who’d jump into a Way Back Machine and scan time for answers to mysteries they were facing.
It was an awesome show.
I keep feeling like a Way Back Machine would be so much fun. I’ve written about my theories of time-travel in other places. Today, I want something along those lines, but I’d call it a Make-It-So Machine. A box or device that would ask enough questions about our yearnings or desires such that it could manifest them next to instantly.
I guess, our computers are sort of like that. But at the moment they are extraoridnarily primitive. They don’t engage in conversation and resource allocation to the point that we can instantly generate a result around a desired outcome. We have to connect with a ton of people through the computers first.
Anyhow. Today, I’m putting $229,000 toward a Make-It-So machine. While you’re pondering the value of that, have a chuckle at Mr. Peabody and Sherman.
Good stuff right? The Make-It-So machine would be very popular around New Years Day when so many people lob intentions for the year into the vast empty space of the future.
This machine would receive these intentions and work on them in our absence and report on progress and findings as time winds on. The more I think about it, the more I realize our Intuition works just like this. Hmm…
Have an amazing day.
One of my favorite activities is piling gear into the ride and stopping at State and National Parks one after another. From the Redwoods in Northern California to Big Sur at the Central Coast all the way to San Onofre and out to Taquitz, there’s an abundance of natural beauty to absorb in the state where I presently live.
While there is still some West coastline left I’m setting aside a fund to help support the Park Rangers who have been cut back to part time recently. The fund works to fill in the gap on the State payroll so that people can keep trails safe, wilderness response up to par and check-in stations staffed. Today’s total is probably enough to run a fragment of the State system for a day.
So, instead, I’m putting the money into a fund and piling it’s interest into State coffers, earmarked for this purpose. The resource will also be accessible to people who want to raise more funds for this purpose. I’m sure one day society won’t need advocates for trees and recreation. But today, this feels like luxury combined with fulfillment to me.
