This ain't it.

@LoneWonderer don't mind Joseph, this thread irritates him

So the surface we walk on has no impact on gait, the foot or mechanics? It won't effect the body over time? Doesn't sound right.

It is a challenge to maintain a regular habit. So often there is internal resistance to beginning the task. Once engaged it isn't so bad - and there is usually never regret after! I normally experience enhanced focus and wellbeing following a hard workout. It's only shit if you get injured or overtrain (overtraining is my issue).

I am glad to hear this!

@Cubbage I enjoy your speech patterns, pacing and accent - I recall noting that in your video for Majora's Mask while I was slicing up vegetables for dinner

I want that film to be good - but I am hesitant to get hyped. Pessimist in me >.<

I went through a phase - then I ran out of money. But I love performance cars. NA is my preference JUST for the engine note (but I have personally only owned turbo engine cars). I love the scream! Or a well maintained rotary... brrrrrr br br br br br

@EdgeGod900 You are so pessimistic. The humorous part is @Jirh and @Joshe typically clash and fight with me more than most on this forum (not in a bad way, in an intellectually stimulating and respectful one). You just need a cuddle!

Are we meant, or did we evolve, walking on shit that is smooth as fuck?

I have your questions noted down to answer next round

I reckon this is how it would work if I were speaking to you directly also I haven't ever spoken about them vocally so openly and within the context of actualized.org and similar nondual teachings. So sometimes there were some colloquial phrases used to fill in gaps while I considered. The contrast here is that I am well used to speaking in front of crowds, performing and hosting meetings with many stakeholders (but business related, clients and government ministers). So I have confidence in my conduct and no performance anxiety. I am happy to say "I don't know the answer - but I can get it if required". But this was VERY different. It was a direct accessing of a totally different aspect of my mind. Strange shit came out I didn't even plan on elucidating on. It was very, very fun and I am glad others got something out of it. Appreciate your words.

@Rigel Shoes might not be the source of the problem - they could be necessitated by the man man substrates (unnatural) we typically walk on. Could be either or.

@Joshe @Jirh Appreciate both of your inputs (outputs?) It is really crazy how differently I perceive interactions via voice as opposed to text. I am much more charitable to the person when listening / speaking as opposed to written communication. I often wonder if it works this way with others also. I assume it would be a spectrum rather than binary. I was less self conscious about my voice, tone, accent, expression & appearance compared to my actual language patterns. Certain repeated phrases I used made me want to put a staple gun to my face >.<

The compression. Rivals the power of a singularity >.< I think @LordFall is bisexual? If I am not mistaken.
