Prosaic, the signs I’ve been seeing all day, right down to the snail that suddenly showed up leaving a trail in the house, the gecko – I love both these creatures (though everyone else around me – they seem to hate ’em) (but they tolerate mice and roaches – wtf?????) …
The power failure that lasted so long (says a lot about how people are impatient when shit hits the fan for one, and “survival” etc or the lack of it) that my wife got an offer from the parents to show up at their place, and lo, it was extended to me too.
I had not eaten anything all day, I was planning on more oven cooking at night, but the power failure put paid to that. You’d think a warm meal and bed would appeal?
It took me nary a second to say NO.
I know there’s always a reason my parents offer me any sort of assistance (or help, or anything – and not just me, but I’m talking me) – and even though this is something “normal” – given MY own relationship with them, or the lack thereof (and vice versa) I’d be a hypocrite to accept that so called help.
OF course, the wife despite all her negative comments about ’em raced off instantly.
I always “knew” the power would show up.
Before she left, she left an emergency light on which I was instructed to turn off when I went to bed, so I stood in front of it a while, and her Indian Goddess (the picture of “her”) that she has plastered right in front of the fridge.
Lo, a minute after she left, despite power poles having collapsed – the power showed back up.
I always knew it would.
It was then I saw the snail, though I saw the lizard earlier.
The message it – they – were sending me – well, many. I did up a private video on it which will NOT be shared ANYWHERE except “for me in the future” – suffice it to say certain things in my life need to resolved, and like the matter of divorce I mentioned the other day, I’m heading there.
Despite all sort of opposition.
Anyway …
Lots of you pooh pooh at spiritual signs, and thats fine. Do so at your own risk though, I LIVE by those signs, and my gut – – I always have.
What you cannot deny is this – and something I’ve been saying for so long.
REMOVE the -negative from your life, something positive almost always shows up – and nigh instantly.
So it happened here, magically, right down to the TIME.
Obviously in this case I did not remove anything.
She left of her own accord, no-one wants to sleep in blazing heat without power, of course, for yours truly who used to climb mountains in tropical heat that was pouring one minute – you’d be drenched to the BONE – then next minute sun’s out, and the damn jungle’s so hot and humid your shirt sticks to your back instantly – with sweat – before the rain’s even had a chance to dry.
“This is real climbing!” I remember Kelly saying admiringly as I literally left buckets of sweat behind me on my fourth trek up that hill.
And it is.
It’s one thing to do that in good weather – tough enough 7 days a week with no breaks, and not as much nutrition as you’d think (two boxed meals a day was what I was on at the time).
Its another to do it in hot oppressive conditions from 11AM – 2 PM, the nigh hottest part of the day but it toughens you up like nothing else can.

Not everyone needs to go that extreme, but I have done it for years, thats yet another reason what fazes most folks makes me laugh.
Dont get me wrong.
You know I love A/C as much as my cold beer – but if push comes to shove, my friend, I’m well prepared to tough it out, and have been planning for it for years – in the past, I had do way worse to survive.
You learn a lot from those experiences… they also make for great learning as the product reviews say.
Anyway ………………………..
Cooking would have been an hour long process, which would have been close to midnight I’d have started eating, so despite wanting to cook some spicy peas along with what I had planned, I decided to … well, go on that impromptu fast I mentioned on youtube.
I’ve had four solid days of food behind me, perhaps a 48 hour fast at the least.
But, we’ll see how far we can go …
And that, friend, is the story of the night – thus far.
Back soon!
Best,

PS – To those of you dealing with messy divorces, completely x 100 dysfunctional relationships not entirely of your own making, or at all – – and there are tons – dont let yourself get walked all over, or at all.
By all means stand up to Nazi feminism in the right way.
And if you’re a woman, well, the male equivalent.
However, and this is key, make sure to do the right thing by YOUR end at the end of the day.
I cannot emphasize this last bit enough. Whatever that right thing is, your situation will specify it, I’m being broad here.
Be sure to analyze your own actions, and make damn sure you’re not living in a glass house before pelting stones…
The Universal Court of Justice sees ALL.
And that, my friend is that.
