The young man wrote, "James, what the actual fuck are you doing other than riding around and pissing and moaning all the time on Facebook? If you spent as much time making a difference, as you do on this platform, you might actually make a difference. Dude, I’m so sick of watching you talk shit over and over and over, and then point fingers, blaming everyone else. Shut the fuck up and actually do something. You’re such a hypocrite." Years ago the young man had encountered me in Washington where I was advocating in front of the White House 12 hours a day and I think his impression of me was very favorable. It seems he has actively watched my Facebook feed ever since. He has become quite the Trump fan and a month ago was horrified by something I wrote about Trump and we had what seemed to be a honest and constructive interchange although he certainly was not swayed to my viewpoint. His comment above was on another post that was scathing of the vile creature dump. I chose to reply to him, well, I guess you're not a fan of Jesus. He replied, you maybe his hands and feet, but you are not his mouth. I chose to block the young man on second thought because I've had a prior interchange turn into the individual complaining to Facebook about my page and getting me blocked for many days. I periodically ask myself similar questions to what the young man raised. But I have come to a different conclusion, although sadly. Sadly because my early adult decades were spent in the World of Concrete achievements which at the time I thought was what was needed. His purpose was to hurt, to express anger, but also to to express his hurt. to a degree he lives in the world that I used to inhabit, the material world, and the world of our cultures values. No, I'm not getting metaphysical here. I am getting psychological. You or I will never know if we are other than and energy stream in The Matrix. Neo did not do his fighting in the material world, but in The Matrix where it needed to be done. This young man's notion of Jesus is the prevailing notion, that he is to be worshipped, and the words written attributed to him spoken by rote. I understand Jesus differently than that. He found his father within himself, unconditional love for all of creation and he lived and died to  reawaken, to bring to life,  to save, that same father and to channel That father into the world. This is what I try to do, this is all I want to do, this is my only hope for the world, or for any individual. And to almost all or maybe all it looks like foolishness, hypocrisy. Your life is your message, said Gandhi. My life is my message. My life is seeing the existential truths as carefully and clearly and honestly as I can, speaking those truths, living those truths, living is close to a perfectly sustainable lifestyle as I can see how to do, trying to do my part of Saving the one in a million Souls that can still be saved, saving them from the living death that was my existence most of my decades, channeling what goodness, particularly goodness here in nature, back into the world. And unceasingly asking of myself and Creator and the cosmos, how I can better serve. Seriously, this realm of the psychological in which I fight Rich this young man finds so incomprehensible, is very much how I built a materially prosperous executive life in Hi-Tech. Ultimately I work with people's Souls, people's spirits, trying to create opportunities where those Souls could find an extraordinary Outlet and then running interference and doing what I could to inspire to make that connection happen.

Infinitely more hideous and deadly than what Trump is doing, is what tens of millions of Americans are not doing.

Update. Major repair, recovery, and preventive work on the electrical system.....

Update. Major repair, recovery, and preventive work on the electrical system.


This is an experimental vehicle, we have few if any like it in the country or in the world right now. It has taught very much about where the limits are and where the needs are and it keeps on teaching. It seems to be trying to kill me but with the decency of a few people that help the mission it has not killed us yet.

Recent days and another set of coming days, maybe another five or six, are being spent repairing, recovering, and doing preventive electrical work to do with solar panels, batteries, wiring.

If there were a team of us, adequate funding, stable suitable testing facilities this process would have happened quite a while ago and would be happening much faster now. And all of it would have considerably more certainty. Having said that under the circumstances I think the few people involved can feel that were all doing rather good work.

The work and Investments being made are not a matter of just doing more of the same. Further Investments and efforts are taking place only based on learning that failures thu's far provide. We may well be at the light at the end of the tunnel. Without question we are getting much closer. Solar panels have been failing and almost certainly it is due to either the shocks and vibrations of this form of transportation, possibly major design flaws from the solar panel manufacturer (a new manufacturer is now being tried) , and possibly electrical spikes in this complex vehicle, and within a week that latter cause will be protected against with new diodes, and additional measures are being taken to eliminate the issue of vibration and shock. And regarding the battery failure which amazes leading Engineers, they don't understand it, within a week there will be new protective measures, diodes, protecting the existing and soon new battery.

Update. Very important mission progress, possibly. If it doesn't kill you you grow, and we're not dead yet.....

1. My dealing with people. When people approach me very often it is a harsh encounter for them. Most who approach want to be entertained, that's their right, but it's my right to not spend my time entertaining them. I never seek to offend and I avoid it to the degree I see how. Although I have yet to try this it occurred to me today how to see and speak the truth in a way that might be much more productive than I have seen how to do now. "Friend, please take no offense, but I'm dealing with a series of emergencies here. Everything anyone wants to know about the vehicle is at my website, the first thing that comes up if you Google start loving." I am dealing with a serious of emergencies. This is where I choose to live, every breath. The world is and has been for decades a Cascade of unfolding emergencies. I believe that life is found only in the face of those. And that's where I have planted myself my entire adulthood as best I could see how. But I have not thought to speak this to those that approach me wanting entertainment. I think it's going to be a big help.

2. Crushing financial situation with the vehicle, moving further into debt with a tiny Ray of Hope. A friend of the mission has stepped up with some funding that will go a substantial part way toward dealing with the failure of the major battery and almost all of the solar panels again. In addition one of my two credit card companies, my owners, I am in a position for a very low interest situation for some number of months. So by going more deeply into debt gambling that in fact the vehicle is becoming more stable, Maybe infinitely more stable almost, it's a roll of the dice and we'll either die or maybe survive. Time will tell.

3. Passport, travel schedule. Additional documentation had been requested, understandably given my facial tattoos and years of dropping out of the system in Washington DC Etc, and Friday I confirmed that the documentation has been received by them. They know I am trying to get into Canada August 7th and apparently they try and work around such dates. Middle of next week a clearer picture should emerge. If I do get a passport which I expect to that still leaves the question of whether I am on lists from my years of activism in DC and standing rock that will cause them to prevent my going into Canada at the border. That will be interesting to see.

Financial Lifeboat badly needed. Donation would be great but Could be in the form of a substantial short-term loan. The vehicle has received tremendous small medium and large upgrades over the last nine months and longer that have made it ever so much more robust. Doing so has cost every penny and more but it has been worthwhile. I am totally willing to let this thing die but not prematurely and it would be premature now. So I'm prepared to go even deeper into debt but I'm putting the word out there that if you know anyone that has substantial Financial Reserves that won't hurt themself to contribute either a donation or a loan it would be extremely timely right now. A $700 battery is now dead. Unknown why. But it's dead. Recent climbs here in the Rockies have shown me that it is past time to have a more powerful., $600, motor mid vehicle. And there are ongoing issues, unknown cause as of yet that are causing solar panels to fail. The mission needs $1,000 to keep afloat right now. If you know anyone that would like to help without hurting themselves, which I will not allow, now would be an excellent time to let me know. I'm almost certain that the answer is no, but it would be irresponsible of me not to put the word out. James

Third installment. On goodness, internet searching.

It is good people who make good places.
Anna Sewell

Don't go on discussing what a good person should be. Just be one.
Marcus Aurelius

Evil is committed without effort, naturally, fatally; goodness is always the product of some art.
Charles Baudelaire

Hide yourself in God, so when a man wants to find you he will have to go there first.
Shannon L. Alder

Good is a product of the ethical and spiritual artistry of individuals; it cannot be mass-produced.Aldous Huxley

To be good, according to the vulgar standard of goodness, is obviously quite easy. It merely requires a certain amount of sordid terror, a certain lack of imaginative thought, and a certain low passion for middle-class respectability.Oscar Wilde

Goodness is the only investment which never fails.Henry David Thoreau

A man, to be greatly good, must imagine intensely and comprehensively; he must put himself in the place of another and of many others; the pains and pleasures of his species must become his own.Percy Bysshe Shelley

It is very hard to be simple enough to be good.Ralph Waldo Emerson

Look for no reward in goodness but goodness itself.

It is easy to perform a good action, but not easy to acquire a settled habit of performing such actions.Aristotle

In goodness there are all kinds of wisdom.Euripides

No man or woman can be strong, gentle, pure, and good, without the world being better for it and without someone being helped and comforted by the very existence of that goodness.Phillips Brooks

The devil himself is good when he is pleased.Thomas Fuller

It is within my power either to serve God, or not to serve him. Serving him I add to my own good and the good of the whole world. Not serving him, I forfeit my own good and deprive the world of that good, which was in my power to create.
Leo Tolstoy

Real joy comes not from ease or riches or from the praise
of others, but from doing something worthwhile.
Wilfred Grenfell

If you have not often felt the joy of doing a kind act,
you have neglected much, and most of all yourself.
A. Neilen

Do things for others and you'll find you self-consciousness
evaporating like morning dew.
Dale Carnegie

If one is to do good one must do it in the minute particulars.
General good is the plea of the hypocrite, the flatterer and the scoundrel.
William Blake

Riches and power are but gifts of blind fate,
whereas goodness is the result of one's own merits.
Heloise

And when we come to think of it, goodness is uneventful.
It does not flash, it glows. It is deep, quiet, and very simple.
It passes not with oratory, it is commonly foreign to riches,
nor does it often sit in the places of the mighty: but may be
felt in the touch of a friendly hand or the look of a kindly eye.
David Grayson

Doing good for others is not a duty. It is a joy,
for it increases your own health and happiness.
Zoroaster

Let the first act of every morning be to make the following resolve for the day:
- I shall not fear anyone on Earth.

- I shall not submit to injustice from anyone.
- I shall conquer untruth by truth. And in resisting untruth, I shall put up with all suffering.
Mahatma Gandhi

How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a weary world.
William Shakespeare

It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there'll be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mahatma Gandhi

I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, "aw shit, he's up!

Arthur Schopenhauer

Good people see the good and bring out the best in other people.
Roy T. Bennett

Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good.

To my mind, the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a human being.
Mahatma Gandhi

You are protected, in short, by your ability to love!

First installment. Quotations on goodness. Internet search today

God's dream is that you and I and all of us will realize that we are family, that we are made for togetherness, for goodness, and for compassion.
Desmond Tutu

A good person can make another person good; it means that goodness will elicit goodness in the society; other persons will also be good.
Bhumibol Adulyadej

Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. People are just people, and all people have faults and shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness.
Anne Frank

Goodness does not consist in greatness, but greatness in goodness.
Athenaeus

Of all virtues and dignities of the mind, goodness is the greatest, being the character of the Deity; and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing.
Francis Bacon

Each person has inside a basic decency and goodness. If he listens to it and acts on it, he is giving a great deal of what it is the world needs most. It is not complicated but it takes courage. It takes courage for a person to listen to his own goodness and act on it.
Pablo Casals

That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come. Don't spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes.
Denis Waitley

In Christ we see a maturity of love that flowers in self-sacrifice and forgiveness; a maturity of power that never swerves from the ideal of service; a maturity of goodness that overcomes every temptation, and, of course, we see the ultimate victory of life over death itself.
Vincent Nichols

One goes through school, college, medical school and one's internship learning little or nothing about goodness but a good deal about success.
Ashley Montagu

I happen to be a Christian, but I know that there is one God. People worshipping goodness and love and kindness and truth are worshipping the same God.
Anne Lamott

Goodness is uneventful. It does not flash, it glows.
Ray Stannard Baker

It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.
Leo Tolstoy

We are each made for goodness, love and compassion. Our lives are transformed as much as the world is when we live with these truths.
Desmond Tutu

A leader is one who, out of madness or goodness, volunteers to take upon himself the woe of the people. There are few men so foolish, hence the erratic quality of leadership in the world.
John Updike

By their innocence and goodness, by their boundless capacity for forgiveness, and by the sheer power of their faith and hope, children redeem their parents, bringing out their best selves.
Cass Sunstein

True religion is real living; living with all one's soul, with all one's goodness and righteousness.
Albert Einstein

It's better to be good than evil, but one achieves goodness at a terrific cost.
Stephen King

There is not enough love and goodness in the world to permit giving any of it away to imaginary beings.

Two more solar panels have failed after about 4 months. This is not financially sustainable. It's killing us. In 5 or 10 years maybe there will be a service industry for this type of panel but today it is virtually unknown. The odds are quite High that one or both of two things have happened, vibration has cracked a cell breaking the circuit within the panel and or one or both of two diodes that I'm told are in the tiny control box have failed. On Tuesday an electronics place will be evaluating the diode which I pray is the problem because I think that is repairable.

Update. What is goodness? These are the musings that are going through my mind as I desperately try to find.... my footing among these tidal waves of evil unfolding on Earth, or rather, showing themselves. They've been there for thousands of years. It is not that I feel at a loss for what is good, for knowing what is good, I feel that I do. I feel that almost every young toddler knows before we destroy that within them. And even more

than one in a million people Beyond toddlerhood there is still a dim obscure clouded light as to what his goodness. But how to set a lighthouse on a hill that goodness can be more Shirley found and stood on? This is Central to my task right now. Somehow my lifelong study of history is great change agents is relevant but not on point. By way of analogy I have studied those who were courageous and Brilliant and good at stopping out plague or weeds of evil. But what is more essential is what is good and how to cultivate it.

Update. Several things. The level of relative peace that I'm feeling..... continues from the other day when I saw that the Arc of the moral Universe does Bend toward Justice and Justice is that we tiny tiny tiny hearted American citizens and World citizens really are finally coming to justice for our small heartedness with our Collective torture and suicide as a consequence. But my instincts to try and save everything are still there so it's very hard for me not to spend too much time watching world events and looking for some way to stop it all. But I must to large degree because what's needed from me as best I can articulated right now is to do the work that I wish had been done for young James, me, 60 years ago, 50 years ago, 40 years ago, that might have saved me from wasting so many decades on Pleasure instead of joy. On a more pragmatic note, as mentioned yesterday the journey is lengthened by several weeks due to passport creation delay the so one or two or three significant vehicle issues may be addressed in that time. This fabulous RV trailer, experimental, could use an improvement in the hitch arrangement to make it more solid and with the advice of a fellow that I encountered by chance yesterday I have found a metal fabricator than on Monday May do so about 50 miles from here. Horribly, another solar panel has failed. The two lead theories are Road vibration but there's also a possibility that an electrical problem is causing high voltage to go back through the panel. A warranty was purchased on some of these panels and for the first time I am exploring to see whether those will be honored. If not it might be in Oregon or Washington which are fairly Progressive from an energy standpoint that a solar supplier might be willing to help me diagnose what's going on. The ongoing expense of replacing these is crippling. Major work was done to increase the support under the solar panels, about a month ago, and it is hoped the that will protect the panels and keep most of them from failing. Or at least your medically slow the failure rate down. Probably in the next few days additional work will be done along those lines.
