“Latent Image” January 31st. I waited for you last night, but you never came. I waited by the stream just like we planned, by the stream. You asked me to wait there for you at eight. It was so quiet in the park by that stream. I listened for your footsteps but they never padded across the frostbitten leaves to greet me as we agreed. You never came, but a stranger did. A woman came by the stream with a black dog on a leash. I noted that it was very similar to a Shepard, but I wasn't certain.
A Second Look at a Solo Story Ain't so Bad
My initial plunge into Han Solo : A Star Wars story did not go so well. I believe this paragraph encapsulates the drudgery. Following the green screened air locomotive chase, “This Star Wars story was more like someone put a camera on a bank robbery and simply followed the characters along. Stressful and dramatic for the perpetrators but not necessarily for those who are being spoon fed the feed. I struggled to stay awake and soon walked out."

You are teaching hypnosis and the concept of reality often comes up. What isn't often shared is the implications of accepting one model of reality over another to live one's life by. Does the premise of our reality being imparted through our communication affecting the clients that are attracted to us? I think so. I believe those clients also bring with them specific relational beliefs that communicates how they construct reality in different contexts. This takes us into the rabbit hole of what is objective reality? Objective reality means that reality exists independent of our minds. The description "objective" doesn't make a lot of sense on its own, but it does when grounded in the theoretical relationship between consciousness and existence.

Anna NguyễnPublished 4 years ago in FuturismLet's Talk about Star Wars...
Okay... we've been along for the ride since the beginning. We were Luke Skywalker and Han Solo's geek group. But what the heck!? Somehow we've taken a left turn into an alternate reality. Let's look at a few things from the new movie that make NO SENSE! (In my humble opinion).
The Beginning
Galactic Coordinates: Star Date:(1:33)17E 255C Earth Date:2070 The night sky was dark, stars twinkling in their countless millions around the blue green planet. Children sleep soundly in their beds, mothers and fathers slumber, wrapped in each other's arms. Above them, aboard the Independent Space Command Satellite, Private Oshenko stares at his monitor, watching the long range scanner sweep back and forth through the Sol Star System. Watch Commander Greyson sits alert in the Officer's Chair, red hair and pale skin easily visible in the bright lights of the Bridge. She turns around, surveying the crew seated around her. Her left eye glows a pale blue, a cybernetic implant received as a reward for outstanding valour.
