@gemswinc A band of brown smoke hung across the morning sky, and the Sun cast an orange shadow on the morning, as it unfolded the arrival of the day.
These fires are an indictment of the privalage-at-any-cost way of life we embrace in our rush to leave inconvenience behind.

@jackdetate @gemswinc

the good news is that over time the trees will grow back (new trees, I mean).

@jackdetate @gemswinc

Regardless of humanity, the Earth knows how to heal.

@mims It may heal faster without any more human influence. @gemswinc

@jackdetate @gemswinc

true, but we're here, so there's that

@mims
Going forward,
this dilemma is corrected faster,
when there is less
of the problem
to deal with.
No?
@gemswinc

@jackdetate @gemswinc

Sunbeam / Jack.. what am I missing that you're getting at?

@mims
Nothing,
that I can see,
the only question for me is
how fast,
or long
will it take,

@gemswinc

@jackdetate @gemswinc

how fast?

how long?

put your focus on the positive.

when you lose yourself in that frame of mind, what you want comes more quickly than the opposite.

#FocusOnThePositive and WORK IT. Then it is not just words or thoughts. When you put the positive into action that is how we change the world, one human at a time.

@mims
As fast as possible.
As long as it takes.
That is all.

@jackdetate @gemswinc wellm, specifically it looks like some getting over the hump days happen Dec2026/Jan2027 & 2028/2030. So hang on to your hat! It's going to be surprisingly fun/better/exciting. There Is a reason that you are here NOW. It is to experience the highs and the lows that we are going through. We are all on this roller coaster together. Let's do our best to laugh and have fun as much as we can! PS I HATE roller coasters, but here I am. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
