Some animals are merely reactive to the environment . . . we can consider the “machine” here . . . the nervous system, environment, genetics . . . Behaviorism.

But many others have much more built in between the input and the output. Our “psyche,” for instance, with the construct, thinking and programming influencing what happens.

The “Person” is in here, Self-Consciousness.

We can think and consider; but intentionality is much more sophisticated than even that. This abstraction then, without this higher functioning, is only “the “mark” of the beast.”

We are embedded within this nugget with knowledge, consciousness, power; higher forms are possible.

I’ve been through many stages; but I guess you could say that I got that additional flow, core, moving within me. It has its own meaning, insightful.

One could imagine starting within one’s typical situations, sense of me. One may feel stuck there; but with the proper attitude and orientation, one can deal with more of it. There can be unraveling, openings, enhancements. It was like there was a sudden change, a second attention, and there was the appearance of this esoteric round circle of energy and light. I was very curious and moved up to it quickly to examine it more closely. The typical situation wasn’t the same anymore. Wow! Then there was the experience of “me” changing; I became a much more sophisticated being, with differing feelings, and lighter . . . Hollywood here I come. Being more like a child like thing; it was like a grabbed a fence and pulled myself up to look over: I caught a glimpse of a much more refreshing feeling and energetic reality on the other side!

The ordinary situation can change . . . new to me! I always knew intent could move into a more enhanced level; but this is me and my situation changing, transforming, per se! With intent, there can be a greater orientation, redrawn perspective, multifaceted view, a more global meaning overall including other pieces of the jig-saw puzzle.

Digging deeper, extensions, an enhanced context.

With that change of attitude, it was like I was within this space, like in a house and opening cupboards and doors . . . stuff was presenting itself, like a round yellow plate.

This is like driving around in these extended spaces.

Addendum: It was when I considered Chase when that yellow thing showed up; and recently he’s been talking about sitting in my car, or going for a drive.
