i'm an internet addict
i notice this when i
turn off the computer finally
my ibook
my precious my magic my shiny
. . .
anyways
i play this game sometimes
it's called dying
and i pretend i'm dying it's my
last moment on earth and the process
i'm going thru is the same process my
computer is going thru right now
booting down
the programs
slide off the screen
and disappear
the frame falls away
i'm breathing comfortably
the hard drive unwinds
ticks off a few items
the screen
turns a lovely violet blue
lingers a moment
blink
it's black
as if it had never been lit
it grows cool
and i walk out by the pool
to look at the sky it's quiet
and i go to bed
lie down on my cot and look
at the dark inside my head which
isn't dark it's light somehow an undark
not a computer dark which must be black
as night and soundless not like the bells in
here
that sounds great !!

This is breathless with beauty like a beautiful woman running down the street after her hat on a windy day except better!

I have often wondered about the source of light in dreams. I cant say for sure how a computer feels and sees!

I share those "dying" moments too.
As my body shuts down.
And there is a name for those swirling images that we see when we shut our eyes in the dark.
I've forgotten though.
Blink is nicely put.

When we turn off own computer at death--what remains? The energy that powered the computer returns to the source. We are essentially part of the source. When the body dies we go back to the Source. All along we are not the computer--we are the Source--we pretend we are the computer. Rohn pretends that he is Rohn--but he is not. He is the source and that Source is One.
