Sean Garrisson: I can only speak from personal experience and books I've read. There is something very magical about human beings. I like, or did like in the Pre-Covid Con Days, to sit and just watch and listen to people.
Just watching them move, talk, emote, interact... was amazing every time. So much variety but in every person I could see that magical spark.

Oh and I haven't forgot. I am going to get a list of books you have recommended once I get caught up. Im into a few right now plus I like to study Rappoports work. I listen to his collections, do some exercises and I like to write out some of his talks and reread those. I find writing what he talks about is really good. I figured that out a while back when I was writing down all of his Imagination Exercises and compiling it in a notebook. Then I found myself writing some of what he would comment on in regards to an exercise. I'd look at it. Reread it. And say, wtf is that? That is some really good stuff. Ive head him say it and I figured out it was even more magical writing it out and reading it. So I do his full talks. And same thing happens. Still. Anyway. I would have never known the world of non fiction until him and you. And its true importance. Never knew.
Sean: I never thought of writing down other's words. I have copied passages from books and articles, even typed them sometimes, so I see what you mean. It does increase understanding.
Currently I'm reading "Phoenix & Belgrano" by Ricky D. Phillips. It is about the USS Phoenix light cruiser in WWII which after the war, was sold to Argentina. A British submarine sank the Belgrano in the Falklands War (1982).
It is interesting to me how people interact with each other in government, military, and on the streets.
Wow, that is really neat. Variety. I finally can see that. Magical Spark. Now that is something I will have to work on. To me it is someone allowing me and to not interfere. Then I reflect, am I violating that myself? Yep.

Sean: As long as they don't tell me what to do, I can handle them.
