I realize my manner can come across as annoying or worse. In the previous couple of years, when I had more time, I'd work on my language a lot to try to fix that, with mixed success. Sometimes my thoughts are inherently in conflict with other people's thoughts, because of the way we're blind in slightly different areas, and there's no way to communicate while avoiding that. Now I have much less time, so if I'm going to say anything at all, what I write has to be pretty much the first thing that comes out.

Pretty much all of my dreams seem to be 'shared' to some extent now. I'm working on how to make sense of it.

I think that all of our ideas here and in the 'evolution' thread are how we try to connect the experience with our other thoughts having to do with waking life experience. And so these thoughts help make the experiences possible. But these thoughts don't very well capture what's really going on in general. Modern physics ideas really don't apply to 'spirit' stuff very well. Older physics ideas such as having to do with four elements really don't apply to spirit stuff very well either. Likewise for thoughts about gods, or sympathetic magic, etc.
