Well said cousin. My friends and the other fellas in the band speak about these illusions constantly. Too much sometimes. (Rolls take over.)
I remind myself in the showers quite often that with greater awareness comes a greater responsibility to maintain our own healthy perspective. The alternative creates a disposition of spite, for me... it can worsen if it goes unchecked. I read a book about mindfulness practices once. It taught me healthy practices. I trust you have your healthy practices. I know this post of yours is healthy for me. You too, right?

I think I kinda wrote a song about this stuff. I'll gift it to you if you think it's funny.
Sarcasm is one of my old techniques for survival. Still not sure if it's a good one yet. (That smells like a sales pitch, it's not.)

I look forward to seeing more from you as soon as I stop follow the bs accounts I mistakenly brought upon myself.
