135. and who is to say
what 'consciousness' does remain? Perhaps you can't hear the dust- does that mean it has no consciousness? We need to learn to think outside the box- Like Galileo, Columbus, Da Vinci, and perhaps the wisest humans of our time- the Native Americans.

If we limit ourselves to our own 'experiences'- (things we have already 'known' or 'lived') then we are already dead.

We humans are pretty ego-centric. And sadly 'prove-it' motivated.
That limits us tremendously- It is those who dream things that never were, who open up new understandings.

Waxing very philosophical, as i watch my existence in this 'dimension' grow closer to ending- and looking towards new frontiers.
