Mid-afternoon.
Carol is on her walk at Rose Hill, you are facing west waiting in the
semi-shade cattycornered from the Whitaker mausoleum. You had lunch, with Jen
as your long time server, at Longhorn’s, a tradition after Carol gives blood at
Hoxworth. – Amorella
1430 hours. I just got yesterday’s joke, ‘an honest
self-appraisal’ does not necessarily equal a true one.
It
is an inside joke, boy. – Amorella
1433 hours. Do you want me to attempt yesterday’s
assignment? I’m well rested, did my exercises and had a good refreshing bath
earlier. (I love this upgraded air-bubbler tub.)
Carol
has more yardwork when you arrive home.
Why don’t you gather the leaves on the deck while she tends to other chores. –
Amorella
1436 hours. I thought about blowing them off the deck
earlier but figured she would be upset because they would still have to be
picked up. There are not that many more leaves. I’d just let them blow away
this time of year. We don’t think alike in terms of late fall leaves. The
Deerfield Township fellows are working, there must have been a funeral at the
south end – this place will be full in a decade. Shoot, I could easily add to
the pile in Otterbein by the end of the decade. Our President-to-be may be the
last one I’ll ever know. For me he could be the last Trump. This is just plain
funny, not even associated with a thin dark curtain of surrounding humor.
You
have been working on the deck leaves and others as well as putting watering
hoses down for winter. Carol is still raking as it is windy and tomorrow will
be worse as well as much colder. You think this will be the last of good Fall
days. – Amorella
1605 hours. I’m tired.
You
had more chores and errands and are now at Kroger’s on Mason-Montgomery. Carol
wanted to get some more things as the cold front is coming in about eleven and
by morning the high will be in the forties rather than seventies. You have
decided to see “Arrival” in the morning. The local paper gives it a four out of
four rating. The ‘necessaries’ from Kroger’s include Fritos, Doritos and
microwave buttered popcorn. Neither of you is hungry as you each had a kid’s
cup Graeter’s before arriving at the grocery. – Amorella
1744 hours. Late dusk and I have the
windows open as well as the sunroof. Awesome weather. I guess we’ll spend time
with the TV tonight. We still have lots of shows to catch up on, but the best
of the new ones is “Designated Survivor”. Very much the viewer rush we you to
get with “24”. I cannot imagine what the Dead must do for entertainment. Old
Mark Twain used to say he would be bored to death in Heaven. I can’t imagine
Hell being very entertaining either. Maybe we could sit around with friends and
reminisce on the old Seinfeld series. That would be fun. I’ll bet six or seven
fans could sit around and pick their way through each thirty minute segment of
the series. That would be good fun even now. Then after picking through the
show, watching it to see if the group forgot anything important on such a
non-important show. I’ll bet there are some people out there who could write
down the entire script of some of those noteworthy pieces of entertainment. (1756)
Shut
it down for now, boy, or check your email. – Amorella
Carol
finished Longhorn chicken plus strawberries, etc. salad for supper; you had a
piece of wheat bread, crunchy peanut butter with raisins on top and a cherry
coke Zero with Fritos. You watched two and a half hours of delayed TV, she’s
talking to Kim about Thanksgiving. You are wondering what’s next. – Amorella
2051 hours. Do you want me to mark the outline? I realize
you put it together but as it is from my ‘heartansoulanmind’ I should be able
to decipher which is which.
As
you wish. – Amorella
2055 hours. I should have known, but didn’t. Unbelievable.
2109 hours. I answered each. Should I add
with the response underlined?
Yes.
Also number each thought then add here. – Amorella

Soki’s Address
[Outlined] and Noted
1. I am the
Soki, a being of fortitude within the casement of humanity like the quiet
susurration consciousness people ‘hear within’ from time to time; however, I
exist in the unconscious realms. I am rarely heard and never seen outright.
Soul
2. Like the
quiet rustle in one’s moral consciousness, I the Soki whisper best
when a person listens closely to the fine line between what is real and what is
not.
Heart
3. The
unconscious, you see, fine-tunes consciousness, and this can bring a quick,
ever so small wry smile to the unconscious face; a smile hardly detected by the
casual observer of human nature and sometimes hardly even revealed to one’s
conscious self unless one is quietly listening to what is visually murmuring in
the still features on an outward mirror.
Mind
4. The Soki knows one’s real humanity
inside out. This is who I the Soki
am.
Soul
5. I am a potential experience that exists in
every human, but where if not the heart, soul or heart? Humanity, as such, is
alien to the physical world.
Heart
6. Humanity
interacts with a higher level of self-aware consciousness that can be observed
in all forms of life where self-awareness includes empathy, a reaching out of
one’s self in understanding and kindness. One can witness such in their pets
such as cats, dogs as well as wild animals towards one another and when
interacting with humans.
Heart
7. One can
find all sorts of examples on the Internet. If a person can come to accept
herorhimself as alien, then it is easier to accept others of the same or
similar species as alien also.
Mind
8. There
are no strangers in strange lands where I exist. Humanity is an evolving
addition of kindness to self-awareness, empathy and higher consciousness.
Heart
9. Where is
this place that kindness flourishes?
Soul
10. Alien humanity is in an alternate dimension,
a stretch between time and free of space above consciousness.
Mind
11. Think
of it as any small Medieval college campus, not a university that is spread
over a few acres, lots of trees, grass, sporadic clusters of flowers and; this
is a delightfully calm setting.
Heart
12. On the
front of the college stands a three floor stone building laden with ivy on the
left side, and on the right side are pea vines with white flowers.
Mind
13. The
front of the building shows off the granite stone blocks. The windows are
Medieval narrow and on each side of the building are twin turrets and near the
roofline flourishes. The slanted roof is a dark blue.
Mind
14. The
landscape is similarly pleasant and open spaced, particularly behind the
somewhat large stone building with two turrets, one on either side.
Heart
15. The
campus atmosphere is that of an ancient cemetery with various sized trees
growing where gravestones might otherwise be carefully placed.
Soul
16. This is a location built on kindness and
respect, not love. Love is reserved for heart or soul but not both at once.
Soul
17. Back beyond Humanities’ building are four
other lesser buildings also of stone with similar narrow windows.
Mind
18. Each
outer building is one floor in height with the same slant on the dark blue
roof. Behind and beyond the five buildings of campus are trees, grass, flowers
and walkway is a large open grassy field.
Mind
19. Where
the field ends is smaller stone building similar to the others and after
walking through is an open gate. Some people stop and turn back while others
blissfully walk on through.
Soul
20. All
this is in an alternate dimension of doorways without the intrusion of a single
door, a stretch between time and a dimension free of space above the touch of
consciousness.
Soul
21. To the
Living this place does not exist. “After all,” smiles the Soki, “Why would it?”
Soul
22. The
purpose of what I call this campus, Humanity Central, is to be a buffer before
the Dead move on. Thornton Wilder describes this in a line in Act III of Our
Town; the ‘they’ in this quotation is in reference to the Dead: “Aren't they waitin', for the eternal part in
them to come out clear?”
Mind
23. The
eternal part comes out clear once you pass the Gateway beyond Humanity Campus.
This is where I speak from, the Gateway beyond physical death and before
walking naked into Eternity.
Heart
24. This book is about an
extraordinary development where two alien species with humanity meet and learn
more about what it is to become more fully human.
Heart
25. I will show this story through
the discoveries and events of several people; all are alien whether they
recognize it or not. “I, the Soki, exist and so does the Gateway.”
Soul
26. Humanity
Central is a way station for at least two universes so for simplicity’s sake
I’ll leave it at two. From my perspective both are alien universes, that is,
both have biochemical creatures that have developed consciousness with
humanity.
Mind
27. Specifically, an alternate Earth
very similar to your modern day Earth; however, in 1988 almost everyone in that
alien Earth world died within a day.
Heart
28. Only
a handful of people survived in this alien Earth on 14 June 1988 and one of
them is a fellow named Mexito who lived in South Africa at the time. Mexito was
the only survivor on the African continent. Today, in 2016, he lives near
Washington D.C. in sight of the Smithsonian complex.
Mind
29. In
1988 he was quite a shock to discover everyone dead after he woke up from a
most peaceful night’s sleep. He thought he must be the most cursed man in the
world – to be alone. Within a few days of quiet, no humanity but his own voice,
he heard the whispering voice of his unconscious.
Mind
30. Thinking the strange voice a
miracle he shouted, “Saki!” [SawKey!] to all the accompanying dogs without
masters, and that became my name to him. Mexito immediately explained to his
long and short tailed companions that, “Thee
Soki is a friend in my head and he be someone I can be talking to besides you
kind, lonely dog friends.”
Heart
31. I, the Soki, had always been attached but how was Mexito to know that.
If there hadn’t been all that silence he would have never heard me.
Heart
32. Mexito
gave me up after he met Friendly, who he immediately thought was an Angel. He
didn’t have anything else to give her so he gave her the most unique precious
thing he had discovered, me, the
Soki.
Soul
33. I allowed this under the
difficult and unorthodox circumstances in which he and Friendly found
themselves.
Soul
34. I
secretly left a part of myself within Mexito because I like him for who he is.
I also wanted Friendly to gain a deeper unconscious sense of who and what alien
humanity from Earth was like. That Is a gift that Mexito could not give.
Heart
35. Friendly and her friend, Captain
Fargo, both humanoid marsupials, had come to help prevent the calamity that had
befallen most Earthlings, but they arrived, needless to say, too late.
Mind
***
36. Eventually,
Friendly also gives up a part of herself, her humanity that had inherited me, the Soki, to Diplomat, a young hybrid, a
mix the marsupial humanoid, Yermey and the Earthling, Pyl, who is Blake’s
sister and wife of Justin Burroughs.
Heart
37. I found these interchanging
experiences interesting because I too was broadened by humanity in two
alternate universes – a very lonely human male miner, Mexito, in South Africa
in universe B, a confident middle aged female marsupial-humanoid, Friendly, and
a young hybrid of both species in universe A, Diplomat.
Soul
38. Empirical evidence; arc myths
and dreams, particularly dreams; proof of collective unconscious found in
synchronicity, archetype.
Mind
39. Then move to higher
consciousness that includes the spiritual and physical connections of the
Living with the Dead of both species of higher humanity.
Mind
40. Moving towards both a conclusion
and an introduction, I, the Soki, need to instill a truth about humanity that
is seldom spoken.
Mind
41. Science, genetics in particular,
has shown in recent years that Homo sapiens have incorporated at least two
earlier species, the better known Neanderthals and the Denisovans.
Mind
42. Many Homo sapiens have one or
both earlier species within their genetic makeup. This story is really little
different from the earlier ones but it takes this journey a step or two further
from birth through physical death of two separate species, galactic cousins
actually, and their consequential spiritual release through a hitherto unknown
and invisible doorway to serve a broader based humanity that understands the
differences of being heartfelt, being soul-felt and being mind-felt and thus
solidifying the common human element, seed really, of heartansoulanmind that is
transposed from the physical to the spiritual in an instant without end.
Soul
43. How can such an event be
plausible when science cannot account for it? It is basic grammar. You are
given a proper name and when you die you are left with an antecedent. It’s as
simple as that.
Heart
44. The problem lies in the
hinterland where the proper noun must learn to agree with the antecedent.
Mind

2137 hours. I have completed this task.
It appears interesting but I see no meaning to it. Should the lines be shuffled
so that souls are first, hearts are second and minds are third (something of
that sort)?
No,
but we are going on the assumption that the soul lines are more important than
the heart and that the heart lines are more important than the mind. – Amorella
2141 hours. This appears counter-intuitive. The heart always
comes first, the mind second and the soul third because it is further away from
the earthly reality. We humans generally follow our heart first, that is after
we realize what our hearts want or need; then we reason and hope our souls will
be settled by our decisions. That’s what I try to do in any case. Teaching as a
profession was following my heart first. Marrying Carol was following my heart
first.
What
about your friends over the years? – Amorella
2146 hours. It’s been a mix. My mind may have been attracted
to another’s mind but after a time some of these people moved into my heart
others did not. A very few moved into my soul. This is my perspective after a
lifetime. – rho
Tomorrow
you plan to see the film “Arrival”. Enjoy your evening. Post. – Amorella
2150 hours. I don’t see if anything has been accomplished
here with the Outline. I don’t see the relevance as to whether a thought comes
from heart or soul or mind. Soki’s Choice appears to be a novel like any
other of mine. These points do mean something to me personally if they are
valid; but even then, this is subjective, and even if I can keep most of these
heart soul mind sequences uniform so that people might see there is a validity,
that is my judgment is standard, what does that mean? I think I can do this –
develop a standard for the differences from soul to heart to mind – it seems to
me it is not much different from grading students’ essay material. I know an A
from a B and a B from a C. My criteria is built in from 37 years of teaching.
If I have the soul represented by an A; a heart represented by a B; and a mind
represented by a C. I can do this. After a time I can write down what a soul
shows, and a heart, and a mind in intent and timelessness.
Now
you are getting somewhere, young man. You are developing an understanding that
will underline Soki’s Choice in a different manner. Post. - Amorella
