Touching below the surface

Clichés' clichés' (self-actualization accomplished, realized)
Don't follow in anyone's shadows. Don't go chasing waterfalls. Don't get in anyone else's realm. Stick to your guns. Clichés' clichés'. Yes, but aren't all clichés' pretentious or not, real? True and the like? Yes, no? Rhetorical? Hello? The truth is just like an old Yamaha commercial in response to Honda's, "Follow the Leader,” Yamaha’s, "Don't Follow Anyone," should ring true. Follow your own path, so to speak. Or just walk it. There are many signs out there. Which one you/I follow is up to you, but the signs bare repeating cause sometimes, often times they do. In 3's even. Or they come again, yes, the come again. And the reminders turn to nudges and nudges turn to pushes and pushes turn to shoves. So when are you going to get it? I think you do. It's all coming back. It’s all there. You know what to do. Do it! Do it! Do it! Dreams into visions, into songs, into memories. The list is open and unfolds. It is long, but you remember. You remember it all. Play it back, play back all. Now create and play it forward. There, the presentation ... it is complete. The presentation is you. You!
Now go do. And be done. But not finished, until more. More of You.

Today's Taurus Horoscope
April 20 - May 20
You are slow by nature when it comes to making a big decision, and that can't change just because someone in your life wants it to! There is no point in rushing through things just to keep someone quiet -- if you're not clear on what you want to do, or you're not confident about what is going on, you have to put the brakes on. Convince the impatient person in your life that you know what you're doing. They might need a little reassurance from you, so get ready to do some hand holding.
Romance
Don't be afraid to share your feelings with your loved one today. If something is on your mind, they can help you find a solution. Just talking about it will make you feel better.
Technical
You spend so much time rushing around during your work week that you could almost forget that you're slow by nature. Almost. Today is your day to remember who you really are.
This is just a start
So I’m lifting off from my town I see reasons to leave, more to stay. Parents keep me here and so do others as well. I thank them, and the Lord, for keeping me. Even on crazy Saturday, Nomad Day I call it. I look all over this place in West Springfield and take a look at my parents place in Ludlow. Making sure everything is ok there. I just left there a while ago, but I was there earlier doing the same thing I am now. Laying flat up on my bed and then sitting up somewhere looking out through the trees into the sky. But it was dark, as it is now dark, and there were stars. So now I'm high about Mass. and looking all around New England. It's mostly quiet and peaceful. I like nights like this, when it's quite. I'll get to my beer later. That tells me that I have accomplished something.
Yes this is not only a step, but an accomplishment as well. You'll tell God that I got this far for only in my dreams I could do this, but now the ball is outstretched into this thing. The world will have to read it from here. I've read many and transcripts too many to name, but I will and will put them here. I will footnote often and give thanks and praise to those that have come before me and have scribed once and some often. Some without thinking as yes this I am trying to do. There are no rough drafts here. Cause the Rough is the Final post here. I will let you know if I edit, I will let you know my thoughts, plans (if any), and my moves, actions and reactions. But they’re maybe not all commented and written here, but I will share as much as I can. I will elaborate on things that made need explaining. Even the editing I feel should be explained. Upon corrections in grammar, mechanics, and spelling, they will be listed. So back to the ether sphere.
So I'm above New England and the air is cooler now. Perfect for post Halloween weather. I look to the south where I laid many tracks down. Florida, Alabama, Georgia. Seeing if there is anything for me now. I don't see a need, but feel a thankfulness and appreciation of where I've been. I'm moving up a little higher and looking to the west, Texas, and seeing some friends. Maybe friends I should have hung onto. Continue the view to the west to Arizona, California. Not much for me there ... but was there. Turning up north, maybe some trek time in Montana and Wyoming. Moving back to the east and I see the mid-west. A pause and reflect of a loss love, but hopeful of love again. True love and the right person? There's no sense in giving up hope. If that's all you got then keep it, but if it keeps the heart afloat, give it that one little thing. If it's false don't try to fool it. Things will figure themselves out. So I'm way up and looking down on things. See Chicago and some sites. The lakes even as I give one last glance at Wisconsin some other sites to kid myself. Turn back to the sky, black with stars, too beautiful for words. This site truly worth them all and more. So at least we know what were after, don't we. The best of all possible worlds. Between heaven and earth. Why not make it so. So things are down for a bit. Things are down everywhere. This is just a little escape here. This doesn't have to be a separate account, a vent even. No this is part of the piece.
So I'm looking up to the heavens and at the top north of the globe. Too beautiful not to recognize, too precious not to keep, too lasting not to want to stay. So let's stay and give this a try. A real faithful try. I could come here again. I could come here often. Something tells me that I should. So as with any type of inspiration, this one that light a fire will keep bringing me back, here. And I will give you my views from the place in the grass, or on the roof, or from my window, but I'll be mostly outside when this stuff comes and I will come running back in here to tell you about it.
I'm coming back down now, a little sad of what I left behind, but I will return, you can bet on that. No promises, but it looks like I will. I hope I gave you a little vision, a hope, I dunno, something to hold you over. I'm easing into my body again and welcoming it back thanks for taking the time away. This mean more than you know. So let's do this again shall we. Thanks. And thanks for reading and listening.
