Once upon a time, it used to be a compass, but now it’s GPS. Soon, AI will be telling me not to worry my pretty little head about things like direction, that it will get me where I need to go.

PROMPT: Quote
“I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them have never happened.” – Mark Twain
“There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.” – William Shakespeare, Hamlet
“What you imagine, you create.” – Siddhartha Guatama Buddha
All restatements of one key principle, that our [mental / emotional] experience of the world is an entirely separate thing from the world itself. The latter one has almost no control over, the former one can reach a state of complete control (granted through painstaking and relentless effort.)

PROMPT: Favorite Holiday
Halloween. It’s the most wonderful time of the year. (Suck it, Andy Williams, December is too cold.) And I like a holiday that has a dark side and embraces it.
I like Thanksgiving’s food but think a practice of being grateful just once a year is bad form.

PROMPT: Camping
Many times. Of course, one could argue that living in a house is just camping in a sturdy tent with a lot of gadgets.

PROMPT: Productive
Generally, I feel most productive when I’m in the act of producing something, but I have had some measure of success in tricking myself into feeling productive when I’m actually goofing off at high intensity.
