Notes - not my intent / spiritual chess? / theme?

         You feel your passion for writing is slowly ebbing away because the idea that a ‘presence’ can be modified by robotic science. The point being that you doubt (more than usual) that all this is nothing but imagination trying to find a way to justify itself. – Amorella

         0907 hours. I have good reason. Plus, when I look over the list of ‘new’ characters that don’t ever see the light of day in the book the revelation is that in real life I am one of those. Oddly enough when I see the fictional names and dates I think there is a story for each one of these individuals as singles or couples. I had a few die the same year. What was that about – an illness or accident; drowning, for instance? What about the others in the family? Who were they? What are their birth and death dates? Where are everyone’s marriage dates? It all has to do with perspective on how the world of imagination is and how well it does or does not correlate to the shared reality of how life is. I want to grasp and hold on to a broader picture of humanity over a sense of time we do not physically have to better appreciate what the human spirit may be, that is what the essence of the environment of the human spirit might be, at least in/through a reasoned imagination.

         Orndorff, you just gave authentic reason for justifying your continued writing. – Post. Amorella

         0922 hours. That clearly was not my intent.

         Carol wants to go shopping and have lunch at the Crab Trap II. Later, dude. - Amorella

         1108 hours. We are in the Outlet Mall at I-75 and Rt. 301. While Carol is shopping I am looking at a field of palm trees while facing east under two well-defined oak trees – the palm trees for me and the shade of the oaks for Merlyn and me, figuratively of course. There was my first hit by one.

         Let’s work on Grandma Seven and finish the list of characters thus far. – Amorella

         You didn’t get very far when Carol called to pick her up. Then you had disappointment when you drove to the Crab Trap II and found it closed and the building for sale. You met another arrival, a local, who was also disappointed. She said Crab Trap I off Rt. 19 in Bradenton is also closed – the end of an era. In 1978 after Carol’s parents were established in Sun City Center you began going there and have been almost every year since. Tomorrow lunch though, you are off to Linda and Bill’s, then they will drive you to the Columbia in Ybor City for the yearly. On the way back to the condo you drove up Rt. 41 to Ruskin to buy tangerines from long time Dooley Groves. It is too early for oranges, from there out to Sun City Center to drive by Mom and Dad Hammond’s old house (which they built). Back south again to cross the Sunshine Expressway bridge. You ate lunch at the quaint Sea Horse (est. 1938) at 800 Pass-a-Grill Way, St. Pete Beach – good food but somewhat expensive. The old Merry Dock is across the street for added atmosphere. Carol reminded you to make reservations for tomorrow. Thankfully, she did. – Amorella

         You and Carol had very light supper with the local and national news. You have 465 words on the reworking of Grandma Seven and you have all the tombstones set up like setting up moves on a chessboard. In here human and marsupial lives are not a game but we can use the analogy for partial explanation. Post. – Amorella

         1923 hours. I thought of one chess move after another with one mother and father on the line and the child and her or his spouse on the next line down. I am hopeful this concept will work. If so, it can show the line from dead to living within the framework of the Dead and within the framework of the Living – continuity of spirit is what it is. Is it more than that in the books? Perhaps. I would like to think so. I am refreshed in this recent thinking.

         2117 hours. I had a long soaking bath. The first one since we have been here. Otherwise it has been showers. Showers are not so relaxing but they are quick. I wonder if in this working analogy to something if the parents are one move and the child another, or are the parent(s) and child one move?

         For now, let’s go with the biological mother and biological father creating the child, one move; raising the child to responsible adulthood, another positive move for the human spirit. – Amorella

         2125 hours. This is interesting to think on; it is as if an evolutionary-like force is a work to ripen and mature the human spirit.

         Evolution, ripen and mature are not appropriate to the analogy of the human spirit in this working analogy. Flowering’ also does not work nor does the sense of a weak or strong spirit. This is not evolution. The spirit does not adapt in these books. – Amorella

         2135 hours. Consciousness can better adapt to the spirit?

         Can it? – Amorella

         2139 hours. I don’t even know it there is a connection between the two here. Is having the sense of a basic overall human civilization, or a variety of human civilizations living rather peacefully together, a spiritual quality?

         Is it? – Amorella

         2145 hours. As a romantic I would like to think so, but thinking or even doing does not make it so. To believe something is true does not make it true. To say, a collaborating human civilization is an example of a spiritual quality, does not make it so. This is going nowhere for me in the sense of a book orientational theme at present; enough for tonight.
