RE: Cartagena City Tour

Thanks for your interesting posts in classic blogging style! It almost inspires me to start doing the same again however the incited trend for self-surveillance makes me question if classic blogging and the popularization of it was also part of this agenda. Ultimately people like to share - but sharing potentially en-mass creates energetic shifts and imbalances within the group - I suppose it's like anything throughout history, people and things have became popularized and drew in a large energy of the group then became changed by that energy they drew in to become something different than what they started. The group then in a way 'owns' the image or idea and the person lives merely as the vessel or tool of the group. Seen in one way, this is service and part of our duty being here as humans is living this service unconditionally as long as it isn't done from a starting point of insecurity or 'making up for something'. The other possibility of course is that sharing in this way simply becomes a pattern and habit of the regular self.

I still have issues justifying a broadcast of an impression of self or an idea. Maybe I can work through this, maybe not, in the meantime I enjoy it when people share unconditionally without filters. If humans are going to find their way back to the garden of eden as it were - they would do well to learn to communicate directly again. The first direct communicators stand as headland in the wind - exposing parts of the self which would otherwise be perceived as not ok because it is showing vulnerability.

When I can share in this way without a need to direct or change a person's mind, but rather as an unconditional expression of myself - then I will do so. Blogging may not be this for me - as I have tried many things and quickly discovered my authenticity was like a tap and it drained away - especially if receiving no reciprocation. We hold ourselves within like a treasure, when treasures truly connect then it creates a regenerative force. Until then it is an island in the black etheric cloth of the entirety of everything.

Good luck in Cartageena! Tourism has never really been my thing either - I find I can engage with the energy of it when I do it with others. Otherwise, traveling the streets of the world as a homeless street musician - I care little for these things. The study of people in the many varied contexts through simple observation is enough to keep my mind occupied with a thousand theme parks worth of entertainment.
