...I will unplug stuff more...

I unplugged some stuff and I was like, wow, that felt so amazing. I'm doing my part. What made me want to do that? Oh yeah, it was that friend of mine. Great lady. She's got like these barely tamed red curls and we were talking and she told me she was planning to unplug stuff more and I was like, wow: yeah. I'm gonna do that too.

And then, after that, I left the car at home. I had been meaning to do that more. I don't know why. No, wait. I do know. It was because of my neighbor. She has this amazing cocoa butter complexion and she said she was planning to leave her car at home more, and I was like, yeah, she's so right on. I want to do what she's doing.



The last time I felt this healthy and right was during my Thrive phase, when I had this mysterious compulsion to eat blueberries and catch frisbees on the beach and do yoga in the park.

I saw this flock of geese flying in like an inverted V-pattern and I got this warm feeling like there was something really positive about that shape. For some reason, it reminded me of going to see The Nutcracker at the Paramount Theater. At the end, they gave every audience member these little boxes of chocolates? And it was like, wow, so generous. And on the box there was a symbol like that. And a word. I want to say it was...CHEVRON.

Yes! That was the word. My mind was spinning. In a flash I knew the redhead and the cocoa butter lady and the
Nutcracker chocolates magically intersected at this word. That the redhead was not my friend but my guardian Chevron angel. I felt the aura of this Chevron everywhere, encouraging the use of solar power, funding the local arts institutions, asking me to join. What was this extraordinary force for good? What shape did it take? I knew not. I asked around and apparently they are running this virtue factory right out of nearby Richmond.

I will visit sometime.
