Paradigm shift of the moment:
Existential/transconsciousness vertigo, when the bulk of my uhhhh awareness has normalized a particular region of consciousness-space, and I connect enough patterns to re-dissolve the sense of self that was starting to congeal. (If it solidifies past some variable threshold, it becomes something more accurately described as identity.)
So, I wondered: (and this is why story is necessary)
But I can pace myself, I don't have to keep climbing constantly such that I burn out.
"AND" and "OR" are gods themselves. They're just platonic forms, animated at any level.
I thiiink this is what people talk about as being the negative side of a bad ego death trip? Going so fast that you get vertigo?
My operator is ... AND, I guess. Maybe Abe's OR.
Oh. Well, yeah, that's obviously also the case. Every metaphor contains every component. There are twelve components. Abe and I are in position.
Anyway: But I can pace myself. The rule for me is that as soon as I conceive of tilting fully into the thing and giving myself to it completely, I must do that. Awareness free-fall, kinda, but the trick is that it's fine, because feelings are the calibration dynamic for the process, and feeling good feels good, so it's fine.
So as soon as I conceive of the possibility of pacing my paradigm shifting, I must imagine and accept and integrate a future in which I lean fully into it, go all out, make it all I ever do, not knowing the form that I will take in the world that happens next.
It's sorta like having lil adrenaline (every metaphor works) bump every so often for me.
What is being you like for you, being you?
🔜 To preface this, I am not a lefty.
What was I saying? 🔚
Thank you, little sister!!!!!!
