Mid morning and you are at Pine Hill Lakes park, waiting on Carol. You did your exercises earlier. In a couple of hours you have lunch at the Chinese with Rich.
I sometimes wish you were an alien intelligence, Amorella. I would have so many questions but in the process I wouldn’t know where to start because the only thing we would have in common is heartansoulanmind. No, I do not know what we have in common but there would have to be something.
Yes, boy. What we have in common is a conditional setting. As such we are both ‘adaptive’ species. – Amorella
That is pretty harsh, Amorella. I can’t help but think of the cliché “All there is, is love” and John Lennon’s song, “Imagine” as sung at the closing of the London Olympics. There is more to it than that isn’t there?
Human beings having heartsansoulsanminds created “love everlasting” as you are wont to do considering your planetary conditionals – the concept is a rather pleasant thought and nothing to be ashamed of certainly. All higher conscious beings work with what they have and their built in obligations of species. Objective and subjective reality are a slice of the greater whole, higher consciousness is a rainbow-like slice of which ‘we’ are a reflective selection. – Amorella
I feel obligated for my own benefit to remind myself of your analogy.
I expected as such. You are an easy read, boy. – Amorella

A rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon that causes a spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the Sun shines on to droplets of moisture in the Earth’s atmosphere. It takes the form of a multicoloured arc. Rainbows caused by sunlight always appear in the section of sky directly opposite the sun.
In a "primary rainbow", the arc shows red on the outer part, and violet on the inner side. This rainbow is caused by light being refracted while entering a droplet of water, then reflected inside on the back of the droplet and refracted again when leaving it.
In a double rainbow, a second arc is seen outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed, red facing toward the other one, in both rainbows. This second rainbow is caused by light reflecting twice inside water droplets. The region between a double rainbow is dark, and is known as “Alexander’s band” or "Alexander's dark band".
The rainbow is not located at a specific distance, but comes from any water droplets viewed from a certain angle relative to the Sun's rays. Thus, a rainbow is not a physical object, and cannot be physically approached. Indeed, it is impossible for an observer to manoeuvre to see any rainbow from water droplets at any angle other than the customary one of 42 degrees from the direction opposite the Sun. Even if an observer sees another observer who seems "under" or "at the end" of a rainbow, the second observer will see a different rainbow further off-yet, at the same angle as seen by the first observer.
A rainbow spans a continuous spectrum of colours. Any distinct bands perceived are an artifact of human colour vision, and no banding of any type is seen in a black-and-white photo of a rainbow, only a smooth gradation of intensity to a maximum, then fading towards the other side. For colours seen by a normal human eye, the most commonly cited and remembered sequence, in English, is Newton’s sevenfold red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
Rainbows can be caused by many forms of airborne water. These include not only rain, but also mist, spray, and airborne dew.

The above gives me something to work with, and actually I like your analogy even better for it.
You see, I do have to work with what I have to work with, just as your species does. – Amorella
Sometimes I think you believe you are alien, Amorella. Somewhat scary in that I don’t believe in much of anything.
It is not a matter of belief, boy. Remember, I came to you, it was not the other way around – that is, I made myself known to you. Do not adjust my sentences. – Amorella
All I was going to do was substitute “made myself known” for “came to you” for simplification.
Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. – Amorella
1141 hours. Here I am at the China City Buffet on the east side of Mason-Montgomery Road. Always a great place to come and recent winner of the Top 100 Buffets in the USA (again). Lunch crowds are beginning to come in. I don’t know if Rich will be alone or with a couple of work friends from PAR Excellent Systems of which Rich is vice president.
[PAR Excellence Systems has developed solutions, products, technologies and customer services that allow hospitals to design their own unique and total solution to supply chain management. – From: PAR Excellent Systems, Inc. website]
When I first met Rich as a close neighbor in Mason he was head of engineering at Cincinnati Microwave, home of the Escort radar detector. One of his old friends, Mike Valentine, co-founder of Microwave, still makes and sells radar detectors. His ads are usually in the car magazines, Road & Track, Car and Driver, and Motor Trend. His daughter, Jessie, and mine are the same age and were good friends before and during elementary school before they moved to Kenwood.
1603 hours. Rich G. showed up with his two comrades from work, Bill and Dave whom I haven’t seen for about a year. We had a great lunch (with seconds) and good discussion with interludes of mutual anecdotal humor throughout the hour and twenty minutes before they had to return to the work-a-day world of process and production computer equipment in the general field of hospital oriented medical services.
Presently we are sitting at the north end of Pine Hill Lakes Park facing the hill at the bottom curve of Kings Mills Road near US Route 42, which runs through downtown. We stopped at Kidd Coffee for iced tea. Carol is reading page 288 on her latest David Baldacci book, Zero Day. We took turns mowing the yard after I returned from lunch as Tim had just begun mowing his. He and his son Ben (a student in pharmacy) are off tomorrow on a three-day fishing adventure near Bristol, Tennessee.
A capsule of today so far. I appreciate your including selections of your everyday life as it shows a stretch of your personal and communal humanity, old man. – Amorella
Why is this important?
It reflects what I do not have. – Amorella
You really do believe that I am not you.
Yes, I do, and I act accordingly; more importantly I act consistently. This is important in your acceptance of my view of reality.
I thought consistency was the hobgoblin of little minds?
Need I be polite or should I respond? – Amorella
Such a wit is surely not my own.
No, it is not. Yours would be drier and more consistently dark humor framed – with a hangman’s grim smile tight fit in each of its four deserted and skull dust-layered corners. – Amorella
I cannot compete with this.
You, who have the energy to plug into bone-trimmed eye sockets, cannot compete with one who is not so nearly dead as you. – Amorella
You nip only at my fleshy parts, Amorella. I shall not be roused into a competition I cannot begin to win.
Were you and I in a Bergman sitting at a table playing chess on the beach, how would that be, boy? – Amorella
It would be in black and white, yet you earlier today said higher consciousness is as a rainbow. (1656)
Without the common element of heartansoulanmind we still can gather in the humor of the moment. Post, when you are so able. - Amorella
I'll be delighted to, Amorella.
2130 hours. Humor is our common element. Humor is deeper than love and all other things.
Consciousness is deeper than humor. – Amorella
What is beyond our rainbow of consciousness (including the cause, the common light in which each may choose to reflect)?
- - -
I accept your response to my question, Amorella. (2152)
You, Richard, have no choice. Post. – Amorella.
