Have a 5-day retreat starting tomorrow —- A good idea to leave some reminders on how to be human — in case we need it
1. Talk to people like you were both reading from a script — unearth the story already there
2. Have preferences — so people don’t get confused
3. Learn to sit — as a side note — In Drugstore Cowboy those curtains in my bedroom which were put there in 1971 appeared — This must have been taken after I went to college and the bedroom became Dad’s part-time office
5. Most humans don’t pay attention — they assume your status is human with the addition of threat / no-threat — knowing this how do you present to the world?
6. There are different ways of seeing — most do not involve ‘eyes’
7. Although your true nature is headless — The head is a signal to others saying you are most likely human
Well, y’all feel free to refer to this list when in doubt.
The person who introduced Mary to me, Lizbeth, was the make up artist for "Drugstore Cowboy". Weird Factlet.
