I’m getting impatient sorry; I might have sounded intelligent☎️☎️iMessage to Mom video Here is the correct verse; the song lyrics are from the writing “we are under a sky without piece”; Taoism also has a mystical side where the Taoist Masters live healthily for centuries & practically fly with super duper martial arts techniques so talking water talking sand; Taoism is actually a nature based religion; anyway here is the correct verse to go with the song; ☎️☎️Distraction Text
Tao and the Art of Drowning
Tao te Ching Verse #31
Weapons are tools for violence
A man of noble character will only use them when there is no other choice
Without peace, there cannot be joy
If you find joy in victory, delight in killing, you have murdered a part of yourself
When many people are slaughtered, there is no victory
Only mourning and funerals
Bo-shi pg 45
Zhu* = to comment on, to concentrate on pg 191
My response:
In spite of my best intentions and attempts at vigorous physical discipline, I have gained
thirty pounds in four months. It must sound silly to plummet physically when I am
surrounded by health conscious athletes. Runners, swimmers, surfers, up and out from
early morning to late night. Dance, martial arts and aerobic classes and rehearsals
populate the beaches in the early mornings.
I would love to swim in the ocean every morning like I used to. However, with my
mobility decrease and the “leaving the walker unattended in the shallow tide while I’m in
the water” aspect, there is no way I could get in and out of the water without becoming a
daily spectacle.
Sometimes when I go alone to a café or shopping mall for the first time it causes panic.
Especially if I do anything that might confuse strangers about my intentions or vagrant
status – like looking like I’m looking for something or sitting in a café writing for a
length of time. Occasionally, people react apprehensively (and once a security guard was
even called) if I use the public bathroom or happen on a circumstance where they are in
close physical proximity and I am looking awkward (with the giant walker, the dog and a
door for example).
Well, it is exhausting to be such a fright, although I do bathe and pay my taxes. It doesn’t
happen all the time – most people seem comfortable opening a door for another who has
their hands full – but it happens enough that – who knows – the sight of me ascending
from the ocean in full stumbling glory might cause a surfer to fall off their board, get a
concussion as their confused hysteria might lock their limbs preventing them from
shielding their face, and the poor surfer would drown and I’d be arrested and sued by the
family.
Maybe not, but it might (oh yeah, there is the ADA so probably not). Solutions,
solutions. I’d love to have a swimming buddy. Muscled, agile daily surfers and

swimmers who could lift me out of the tide with one hand surround me. Both Doggie
and I retreat, however, from intrusive touch – and trust – so a swimming friend isn’t an
easy solution – but it sounds good. The other “obvious solution” to my dilemma – asking
for assistance – to make my daily swims possible and enjoyable seems impossible.
I don’t know how to bridge this communication gap.
Right now, Honolulu is having a well - publicized traffic crisis with pedestrians getting
run over daily. Deaths caused by motorized vehicles aren’t the binding thread of
similarities that I was hoping for, but the daily deaths are changing people. Many are
saying that they do not want to kill others by accidental negligence or because the sun
was in their eyes.
