day 9
you know how with each person you meet, they emit this sort of vibe? and this vibe (for me at least) seems to be like a glimpse into their unique human energy. ["energy"... kind or reminds me of when mac would use the word to describe various things. at first, the word energy didn't really jive with me. for me, energy was a term reserved for discussions about physics or chemistry or something. but the more he used this word, the more i became used to it as a way to describe any combination of a person's mood, spirit, and/or aura.]
anyways, you can have good and bad mixes of these energies between people resulting in good or bad relationships. good and bad are fairly simplistic adjectives for these mixtures, but hopefully you get the idea. as a result, we can get upset, intrigued, distracted, aroused, etc, etc.
but these psychological results/changes aren't always a product of a mixture of energies... sometimes they can be brought about through the various complexities/events in everyday life. ie. a bill you recieved was twice what you expected... the weather was perfect on your vacation... the taxi you're sitting in has a bright yellow interior... etc...
now i mention all of this as more or less background... the other day, as i sat with my back up against a tree, i felt a great sense of bliss and simplicity. now i'm not sure if this would be classified as some random convergence of events that caused that emotion because it sure felt like i could feel the energy of the tree that day.
