How fortunate I am that in this life I am one who has been allowed to create beauty with responding to madeline's comments.
It is my responsibility to create peace, beauty, and love with responding to madeline's comments.
I WILL BE KIND TO MYSELF
IT IS ONLY RESPONDING TO MADELINE'S COMMENTS
No matter my level of development in responding to madeline's comments, how good or bad I think I am, it is only responding to madeline's comments and I am a beautiful person.
I will not compare myself with my colleagues. If they do responding to madeline's comments beautifully, I will enjoy it and be thankful and proud that I live in fellowship with them.
There will always be someone with more abilities in responding to madeline's comments than my own as there will be those with less.

To contribute to the world's spiritual growth.
To contribute to my own self-discovery and spiritual growth.
To pay homage to all the great practitioners of responding to madeline's comments, past and present, who have added beauty to the world.

Love the concept of this series! I just started reading Tabs, what beautiful timing.
and the Practice Guide is a gem! Reminds me of the iconic Killers lyric - “Are we human, or are we newsletter?” at least, I think that’s how the song goes...

I found the coffee maker on the desk absolutely shocking. It strikes me as totally dangerous. If I was sitting that close to the coffee all day I’m sure I’d be up to ten cups in no time. Five is bad enough!
Also love this: “I can be convinced almost anything is cool by someone who really believes it is.” So true! Enthusiasm really is infectious!
I'm still new to you, Alex, or vice versa rather, but I dig the questions you choose to ask and love how you autopsied the photo! I've done that with selfies that people have sent me over the years, or selfies my friends have shown, i go deep beyond the bra and panties/pulled down boxers and hone in on the random box of opened Cheez-its on the table behind them. Also, I have the same Kettle, computer, and grinder as Rusty! Weird to feel a connection via things, but i did.
"I minimized everything until I was comfortable with just this old 13" Macbook air. I like that it's extremely portable and wherever I can open it: there's my whole workplace. The limited screen real estate also helps keep me focused on one thing at a time, instead of my undiagnosed ADHD brain bouncing all around."
I've been in a similar situation for years now. Every so often I set up an external keyboard and mouse on my desk with my laptop, thinking I can transition to having separate/multiple displays again, but I always revert to just using the laptop on its own. Having a single workspace and way of working that's the same wherever I am (and this works even though I transition across multiple machines, with a MacBook Air that I take on the road with me) just seems so much more preferable than having some extra screen space that would likely be a distraction more than an aid.
omg I love the practice guide
