Tell your life story in moments.

:- Doug.

Chapters of our lives need not be discrete portions of time, could also be themes that come back around.

:- Doug.

It’s not about wisdom
It’s about where we find ourselves
Being here
While lost
Our kind of presence

:- Doug.

The foundation below me is safe, pulls me to play and try out the inscrutable language.

:- Doug.

Friend, into you, into your language, the foundation beneath me, beneath all conversing.

My dream for the grandchildren elders 300 years out: to speak out their message even if they do not have the words. Speaking brings forth the words, maybe only in the years beyond the instant.

:- Doug.

The desire has us, the desire to get a message up to others who cannot see, cannot interpret nor understand the message, but wanting to give it themselves. We must develop in our own time. Maybe to ourselves/myself who cannot see, cannot yet understand. So we try, playfully, to speak.

:- Doug.

I was above, looking down—hearing down—trying to speak the inscrutable language.

:- Doug.

What’s your dream about you and the grandchildren?

The meaning of masculine and feminine, agency and communion, is changing (us?).

:- Doug.

I am because we are.

:- Doug.

There is a greater spirit and field among us.

:- Doug.

It’s perhaps helpful to see the ages of humankind as passages, places or fields we go through. Then it is less tied to your years and more to our progress: I was in the middle passage, now I am in the elder.

:- Doug.

You are an expert—at being human. You can help others through their decisions even in this field—so do your expert work, too.

:- Doug.

Do people only come to you for the technical things you know, or for the application, that is, the humanity and kindness you bring to their need?

:- Doug.

Grow, See, Let it be are aspects of life available to us, opening us as elders: turning us inside out, filleting us.

:- Doug.

Is this technology a tool for doing something human or something financial? Both: it is up to us to decide how to employ it.

:- Doug.

You have a special role for the grandchildren. Are you game?
