Poems that make you think

“I wasn’t just trying to get High—I was trying to get Quiet. And I loved it. I loved the feeling THC gave me, the way it stretched time and softened the edges of my brain. I didn’t know what ADHD was back then, but I knew what it felt like to bounce between thoughts, sensations, and emotions like I was made of lightning. Cannabis didn’t fix that—it didn’t need to. It gave me something else: a way to ride the storm instead of getting ripped apart by it.People called me a stoner. Teachers, peers, even some family. But what they never understood is that I wasn’t just ‘escaping’—I was finally accessing a version of myself that could pause, breathe, and focus long enough to enjoy the world instead of survive it. I think a lot of people would use cannabis if they could feel what I felt. Not necessarily every day—but enough to understand that sometimes, the thing we reach for isn’t dysfunction. It’s design.”

"I am grateful for the strength, wisdom, and patience within me, and for the guiding presence of peace in all situations. I am connected to a field of infinite understanding and compassion, knowing that I am supported in each interaction.
In every moment, I am calm and resilient. I receive negative words and actions with patience and kindness, letting them pass through me without disturbance. I feel a sense of calm strength in my chest, and I see myself responding with understanding and positivity. When others speak or act from a place of pain or frustration, I meet them with compassion, offering responses that reflect the peace I carry within. I am unaffected by negativity, anchored in the joy and strength of my own spirit. I feel peace surrounding me, steady and unbreakable.
I release this intention to the universe, trusting that I am continuously guided toward peace, positivity, and resilience. I am open to the wisdom and calm within me, knowing that my responses are gentle yet strong. I trust in the unfolding of these intentions, now and always. And so it is."

One of the things about photogrammetry is getting images from every angle. Possibly taking several hundred images. Possibly making multiple passes. In the images below you can notice that the purple print is very close in detail to the almost 40 year old wax. Where the detail is lacking is the hollow area inside on the original wax. This requires a change in the overall position of the wax in the scan.

Brilliant Anthony Hopkins on the urgency and essence of living a meaningful life:

“I know that I have less to live than I have lived.

I feel like a child who was given a box of chocolates. He enjoys eating it, and when he sees that there is not much left, he starts to eat them with a special taste.

I have no time for endless lectures on public laws - nothing will change. And there is no desire to argue with fools who do not act according to their age. And there's no time to battle the gray. I don't attend meetings where egos are inflated and I can't stand manipulators.

I am disturbed by envious people who try to vilify the most capable to grab their positions, talents and achievements.

I have too little time to discuss headlines - my soul is in a hurry.

Too few candies left in the box.

I'm interested in human people. People who laugh at their mistakes are those who are successful, who understand their calling and don't hide from responsibility. Who defends human dignity and wants to be on the side of truth, justice, righteousness. This is what living is for.

I want to surround myself with people who know how to touch the hearts of others. Who, through the blows of fate, was able to rise and maintain the softness of the soul.

Yes, I hustle, I hustle to live with the intensity that only maturity can give. I'll eat all the candy I have left - they'll taste better than the ones I already ate.

My goal is to reach the end in harmony with myself, my loved ones and my conscience.

I thought I had two lives, but it turned out to be only one, and it needs to be lived with dignity.”

There was a guy in my life so I did a lot of work for he would be the one saying that his work wasn’t getting done when I ever showed any interest in doing something different than what he wanted me to do. The truth of the matter is is that he was on a different vortex. Mine was just to learn from him, the beauty of everyone on their own is the idea that you should learn from the people in your immediate life. It’s always showing you how you should grow. As I heard it said once in one of the videos videos, I’ve watched this woman said just smile and wave at them and say” I look forward to the next time you don’t like what I’m producing because I don’t have to stay in your vortex”

Let not grudges consume us, let go and release,
For in forgiving hearts, we find lasting peace.
