GM Rex--I see two pig faces in three quarter view-top left and right. It is not a good feeling for me--kind of nightmarish, like a slaughterhouse

"Don't strive to solve - said as if you read my mind. The world is a MYSTERY This, everything you look at, is not everything there is. The world has so much more things, so much that it is endless. When you're looking for the answer, all you really do is try to make the world familiar.
You have to take responsibility for being in a strange world - he said. We're in a strange world, you must know. Head banging in a statement - We're not talking about the same - he said. For you the world is strange because when you are not bored you are hostile with it. For me the world is strange because it is wonderful, scary, mysterious, impenetrable; my interest has been to convince you that you should take responsibility for being here, in this wonderful world, in this wonderful desert, in this wonderful time. I wanted to convince you that you should learn to make each act count, because you will be here only a little, in fact, very short to witness all the wonders that exist... "

"When a cat falls out of a tree, it lets go of itself. The cat becomes completely relaxed, and lands lightly on the ground. But if a cat were about to fall out of a tree and suddenly make up its mind that it didn’t want to fall, it would become tense and rigid, and would be just a bag of broken bones upon landing.
In the same way, it is the philosophy of the Tao that we are all falling off a tree, at every moment of our lives. As a matter of fact, the moment we were born, we were kicked off a precipice, and we are falling, and there is nothing that can stop it.
So instead of living in a state of chronic tension, and clinging to all sorts of things that are actually falling with us because the whole world is impermanent, be like a cat."

Thank you!--I will look into both suggestions.
I've never done that. We usually have too many tomatoes and cucumbers. If you have enough plants to risk it not working--you could experiment and see if it works.

Do you have a suggestion for a metaphysical novel?--a hero's journey type of adventure story.

GM Rex! You're back! Hurray! This one is so powerful! I see a complete purification by fire moment. --a complete alchemical crescendo--the moment of release--ashes to ashes--but NOT dust--the fire spirit arises as the true inner essence becomes the new enlightened perspective! WOW!🤗
