Hailing Hinds’ Feet Post-Dancing with Depends
-
Here’s a song I sang a lot this week - even played guitar alongside it, too. And soon I’ll be a pro-busker. As soon as tomorrow, it may be. So, I’ll have to prove it with a video then :) UNTIL THEN…. here’s a song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL_Mv4PmEik. I remember catering for her once, this singer. Backstage I served her and her band. Then watched her perform to a huge huge crowd of thousands, I watched from backstage. It was wild to experience. A normal person, just go be that epic on stage suddenly, singing so beautifully… and then done. I’d never heard her music before, but I saw how it wasn’t THAT hard. She was just there eating with me, her and her band… then, next thing you know, performing to thousands… and a career out of it.

This post is not for much of anyone but future me. Who will read it? Well, I know some people are keeping up with my blogs now for whatever reasons… (you may even keep it to yourself (and don’t even want to tell me) 😂) - but here we are. My website is public and you keep clicking. So, these are my reflections. I don’t want to get into to much (of course I ACTUALLY DO) its like 100% on brand for me to rant, ramble, and explain and a lot of me would love to sit and write for 20-200 hours straight right now. However, its just not the time/existence (?). Its just not right or needed (?)… which could be argued, but we’ll leave it at that.
Why Attend: Today, I’m just making this blog. Unfortunantely, times ONE HUNDRED, I also missed a big event today that I was very eager to attend (an event related to the entire world, technology, and quantum-computing/intelligence), but it wasn’t meant to be. Instead, I was meant to be somewhere else and doing other things these past few days/past week, so there I was. Again, idk how much I will get into any of it. But no matter what, I’m stepping away realizing that I have a lot to think through and it will all come together and make more sense bit by bit, with time. Until then, there’s plenty going on that is great, that I’m working on, and that is just all around amazing for everyone/everything, nearly completely. This includes the books I’m writing, the songs I’m creating, and things along those lines. In addition, I’m so committed to my hard work and missions to empower children, retail investors, families, and the great people who never stop standing for what they know is right. Below, I’ll address a few topics including: KELLY TUTORS, NATIONAL BORDERS, & MENTAL HOSPITALS.

Topic 1: Kelly Tutors
And for real I’m extremely bummed and surprised I missed this huge event today. It is ironic how the timing lined up. But, then again… those events don’t often make a huge difference. These huge policy events. I mean, it’s hard to say how much of an impact they have on reality (because the one I went to last year, I heard a speaker talk again many months later saying that NOTHING had changed since the big policy event… you know? Even though he was a featured panelist with huge important issues related to energy/the world… the event didn’t work for him? Nothing yet. So… missing a big event isn’t a huge deal if the marketing is bigger than the reality. Though, I hope its not the case and I hope this event I missed today actually had a good/big purpose. To help with the future and a great world. I’m sad I wasn’t there to cover it.
But this brings me to the next point, which is: FOCUS. I feel my focus is spread a lot on this website. I mean, not really… my goal is to help stop human trafficking and overall help foster a great culture of education, entertainment… everything. The whole ensemble of the life experience (in the USA/globe) for humans… and grab a hold of the motifs and themes that have been sliding under the radar for so long, shine light on them, and help people stand behind/for the things they truly stand behind/for. And nothing less.
I’ve just spent a lot of time away from my blog, even from feeling free to have my own thoughts, you know… so I’m a bit rusty. And I’m writing so vaguely for the sake of myself (and I think that plenty of you already know exactly what I’m working on, so it doesn’t need to be said so clearly) - but… I’m standing for humanity, goodness, productive systems, healthy futures, integrity, truth, safety.
I’m not always getting things right, but I’m trying every single day to do a number of things: help kick-off MOASS, protect children, change our systems and these perverse norms which have infected our entire society. And I’m sure I’m getting some wrong, but I’m getting a lot right. But, systems are strong, to keep things “the way they are” and have been for decades. Or more.
So, as I am at this sorta “next chapter” here… I think to myself: what is my focus? And it doesn’t change. I’m here to help with MOASS, protect children, THINK THROUGH THINGS MORE (sure) but… my mission is good and I am filled with integrity. That won’t stop nor change.
Though I do want to add a few things to my weekly experience:
Once a week (at least) busking + selling my books downtown. I may even start tomorrow. Buy a guitar and start singing. Lately, I have written so many new songs, too - I want to perform them.
Tutoring, keep it going and turn it up even more. I have a few students and I want to expand
Online lessons… build my own portal… really lean into AiEDU4Youth.com
Topic 2: Borders
It was indescribable (hahaha not really, but, we’ll let it be that for now)
I was surprised and grateful, too.
Topic 3: Mental Hospitals
These are wild.
A common room with only MSNBC on with EXTREMELY LOUD volume. You could literally only sleep, eat, pee, or watch MSNBC. After a few days of staying calm in that, you get to graduate to the section with more channels, more people, roommates, and more to do.
And if you explain yourself using memes, its not enough.
This was a good lesson.
