Once you've been hit with enough 2x4’s with spikes in them.
You realize it doesn't have to get that bad before I change. It’ how we learn.
Some of the signs in life are easier to read than others.
Many times, I have used these words, "The kindest people I have ever met got that way because of being put through the grinder enough times. I know this maybe a judgement. That being said, it is based on personal experience. Apparently, a hard life produces a soft heart.
I believe this thing called life does play by a "set of rules", let's say. I just don't think we consciously know what they are, so we are playing this game "in the dark." One thing about playing "in the dark", the smallest spark of light is HUGE! It changes everything in a flash. Just like life. Everything changes at the "Speed of thought."
My observations of the "signs" apparently is unique to some. Growing up if I did not like something, anything, guess what? I did something different. Let me give you an update on the Great American "Nightmare" Dream. Doing what you did yesterday, today. Even though you hated it. Then repeat tomorrow what you did today because it didn't kill you yesterday.
Somewhere along the path I discovered I did not appreciate the world around me the same way I saw others did. I also saw I could make any choice I choose. Did you ever hear this "Parents statement", "If they all walked off the cliff would you just follow along?" I just described my current observation of the world.
Welcome to M.E. Kapla's The world according to M.E.
As I see the "Current Average Human Daily Experience". The short version.
Awaken early at the same time to alarm clock. Pre world interaction preparations identical daily. How they shit, shower, shave, breakfast, right down to the tv program and chair they sit in, identical. How they choose to commute, time, route, fuel locations, grocery shopping, identical. Right down to the pattern they shop in, even in grocery stores they have never been in. Work in a job that underappreciates and under compensates them for their time and energy. Eat dinner, watch tv, sleep. Making the choice to repeat what was done yesterday with the hope that in 40+ years, they will be able to retire at 65. Rinse, repeat, pay taxes, die. To be slightly blunt.
How many times being hit with 2x4’s with spikes in them is enough? I realized and learned by the observation of others over time that it doesn't have to get that bad before I changed something. Apparently, it’s how we've chosen to learn in the past. How different does our world appear to us all when facts like this are held in the Social Consciousness of the "Human". "Nothing that has ever happened before this moment, has any effect on this moment, unless you think it does."
Just a thought to ponder. What if life was not like a movie, one scene leading to the next scene over and over again. What if it was more like slides. Not actually connected to each other. Each slide a representation of you in your then current now. That slide of you at the Grand Canyon is a slide of you in your then current now. That slide of you at Yellow Stone is a slide of you in your then current now. That slide of you at Skiing is a slide of you in your then current now. There is no connection. They are all simply representations of a then, current now. The only moment that actually exists. I believe before I go any further down this rabbit hole, I need to give a little background. I will start right there on Monday.
On the lighter side. You can always choose something you have never thought of one time and change everything you think of as your life. If you're ready for the real magic to be the spark of your life, do something you have never done. Watch what presents itself to you in that current now.
I started this Substack to present observations I have made during this journey I call life. To attempt to present my observations in a way that is uplifting yet informative. Something that could, if applied, change all aspects for the participants.
In 2023 I live on the ocean next to my daughter and her family. I designed a #1 Google ranked business I get to play in 21 hours a week. If you choose to come on this journey with me, I believe you will have thoughts you never had before. Then we change the world.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Cheers,
M.E.

Next week's subjects:
Monday) A little background.
Tuesday) Can you tell I have two different color eyes? Can you tell I have a tear drop pupil? I was born with this.
Wednesday) I was raised by a mechanical electrical engineer which is another reason I am what I am. I perceive numbers or math or volume differently.
Thursday) The chances of having two different color eyes is roughly 1 in 500,000. A tear drop pupil is 1 in 750,000. Mathematically it comes out to about 1 in 32 billion. Modern science says in the species that we consider ourselves part of, there's been 90 billion in the history of our species. So, when you hear of someone talking about being 1 in a million, I’m Actually 3 in a species.
Friday) Now imagine knowing this your whole life. Every time you brush your teeth, and you look in the mirror, you realize you’re never going to meet somebody like you. That’s how it began.
