Fefonz Quan: i will need to go for some minutes, brb
Pema Pera: btw, we have this new suggestion: to be silent for 90 seconds . . . .
Mickorod Renard: I was wathching your Avi typing and was expecting a huge response Pema
Pema Pera: (the idea was Tarmel's, I worked out the details, Storm implemented it )
Pema Pera: we thought we would try to periods of silence for a while, to see whether we like them
Scathach Rhiadra: well, so far I like:)

Fefonz Quan: (when did the 9 got to ninety?
Pema Pera: And thank you, Storm, for implementing the new bell conversation!
Pema Pera: yesterday, Fef, as a special treat :)
Storm Nordwind bows slightly
Mickorod Renard: yes its great
Scathach Rhiadra nods
Fefonz Quan: so next interation will be 900?
arabella Ella: or a week?
Pema Pera: that's 100% dedication, yes
Pema Pera: so far only 10% time tax
Fefonz Quan: yes, you can't get over that
Pema Pera: we just got a tax hike
Pema Pera: we can try it for a while, see how we like it: 1% tax in RL and 10% tax in SL
arabella Ella: :)
Mickorod Renard: gets his calculator out
Pema Pera: value added tax?
Fefonz Quan: wel, in my RRL i pay 555 tax :)
Pema Pera: ?
Fefonz Quan: 55%
Pema Pera: !
arabella Ella wishfully thinks ... if only all taxes were like this one ... mmm
Pema Pera: perhaps in a Really Real Life there is no tax, Fefonz?
Fefonz Quan: than no one could support the poor ara ;-)
Pema Pera: (you typed RRL)
Fefonz Quan: yes sure
arabella Ella smiles at Fefonz
Fefonz Quan: i meant RRL
Pema Pera: alas, I am in a coffeeshop without a power outlet, and my battery is running low, so I'll have to say goodbye . . . (>_<)
Pema Pera: bye everybody!
Mickorod Renard: bye Pema
Qt Core: bye Pema
Storm Nordwind: Bye for now

Pema Pera: welterusten Wester en Schathach
arabella Ella: apologies but my chat is not always appearing here
Scathach Rhiadra: tot ziens!
Wester Kiranov: tot ziens
Pema Pera: perhaps Scathach can chase your chat, Arabella
arabella Ella: great idea
Scathach Rhiadra: :)
Mickorod Renard: its proberbly chasing my mouse
Pema Pera: a Cheshire chat !
Fefonz Quan: are we through with the theme if this time slot?
Wester Kiranov: :D
Fefonz Quan: in this*
Mickorod Renard: did we have one?
Scathach Rhiadra: was that not earlier?
Fefonz Quan: ok, fefonz punch himself on the head for replacing saturday for sunday..
Mickorod Renard: I was saying how nice your wisteria is here Storm
Fefonz Quan: those weekend days all look the same
Fefonz Quan: whay is wisteria?
Storm Nordwind: Thank you Mick. Yes I really like it
Mickorod Renard: its those hanging flowering tree's
Fefonz Quan: ok thanks.
Storm Nordwind: Actually it often grows against walls, but free standing is good too
Mickorod Renard: I have tried twice now to grow them in RL but to no avail
Fefonz Quan: i just noticed the fountain water look white from a far and turquoise from aclose
Storm Nordwind: I'll bet you could grown buddleia without any problem Mick!
Mickorod Renard: yes I did,,they grow like wild fire
arabella Ella: its probably the brit climate you have probs with mick
Storm Nordwind: There's a light shining on it all the time Fef. That may affect what you see
Mickorod Renard: well,,it was in France I tried
Mickorod Renard: too dry I think
Fefonz Quan: so turquoise is the original color i gues
Fefonz Quan: guess*
arabella Ella: may i quickly share an experience i had today?
Mickorod Renard: ahh,,I see what u mean Fefonz
arabella Ella: if my chat comes through ... smile
Fefonz Quan: please do
arabella Ella: ok ty
Mickorod Renard: yes please
arabella Ella: this morning i went to the sea to reflect and meditate for a short while
arabella Ella: and i noticed this old wall
arabella Ella: big blocks and thick in how it is built
arabella Ella: and it is amazing how even something ... material ... makes an effort to survive the elements
arabella Ella: as the bottom bit is all gone
arabella Ella: so there is a gap between wall and sea level
arabella Ella: yet there it stands majestically
arabella Ella: resisting any forces that may make it collapse
arabella Ella: yet not having any solid foundations to rest upon
arabella Ella: a bit like us humans i reflected
arabella Ella: that's it
Mickorod Renard: wow,,was that an old Roman one?
Fefonz Quan: (is it floating on the water?)
arabella Ella: sorry to say it is not roman just only 200 years old
Mickorod Renard: ok
arabella Ella: yes it appears as though it is floating on water altho it is about one foot higher than water level
Mickorod Renard: ahhh,,,they dont build them like the romans did
Fefonz Quan: so what holds it?
arabella Ella: but yet there is stands
Storm Nordwind: Perhaps it stays there by "Art" ;)
arabella Ella: holding on only since the huge blocks are resting on each other ... horizontally as there is nothing to hold it up
arabella Ella: the bottom bit seems to have either been washed away or perhaps the rocks it was on have gone
arabella Ella: but i think we are often like that
arabella Ella: there was a wooden rod in the sea
arabella Ella: and another thing i noticed was
arabella Ella: with lots of tiny silvery fish trying to jump over it
arabella Ella: and it seemed like they were practising hurdles
arabella Ella: very pretty
arabella Ella: and it reminded me of all the hurdles we have to face often on a daily basis
arabella Ella: yet the fish seemed to do it so beautifully and effortlessly
arabella Ella: so my reflection was
arabella Ella: could we too attempt ... from what we do here ... to effortlessly surmound our own hurdles?
arabella Ella: like the fish
arabella Ella: playful
arabella Ella: e3ffortless
arabella Ella: beautiful
arabella Ella: fun
arabella Ella: overcoming
Mickorod Renard: I think if you can look upon problems from that feeling of distance,,it does feel pplayful,,and even humourous
arabella Ella: yes it does
Mickorod Renard: just sometimes I get dragged into the brawl,,if u know what I mean
Qt Core: i don't only think we can but also that it is the best way to do it
Fefonz Quan: hello amandynha
Mickorod Renard: I think you are right Qt
Qt Core: (but that don't mean that it ios easy)
arabella Ella: yes just relating this makes me feel much less angry ... and more peaceful ... in spite of my SL connection problems tonite
Mickorod Renard: sometimes I feel I have been lured,,or conned into getting too close to a problem
arabella Ella: could you look at that from a different perspective Mick?
arabella Ella: a new point of view?
Mickorod Renard: keeping that distance to see a problem in its whole is a skill I would like to learn
arabella Ella: it is upto you to learn it i think INHO
arabella Ella: IMHO
arabella Ella: not easy ... not impossible
Mickorod Renard: having the pressence of mind to recognise beeing lured in
arabella Ella: yes and to try to look at it from above and beyond
Mickorod Renard: yes
arabella Ella: as though you are an onlooker and not directly involved yourself
Mickorod Renard: I do manage it well,,but not well enough
arabella Ella: time and patience mick ... especially the latter ... smile
Mickorod Renard: yes
arabella Ella wonders whether anyone else has any other experiences to share too?
Fefonz Quan: i find sometimes it help if you imagine how will yourself look at it backwards five years from now
arabella Ella: yes
Mickorod Renard: yes Fef,,a good idea
arabella Ella: altho i prefer a sort of out of body point of view myself
arabella Ella: like seeing a movie of yourself
Mickorod Renard: I prefer out of range myself
arabella Ella smiles
arabella Ella: not always possible mick as we all well know
Mickorod Renard: ;-)
arabella Ella: i like the image of a duck ... water just slides off the feathers but does not penetrate them
Fefonz Quan: this looking back for me is easily related, because if you look back at prblems from years ago, you tend to see how small tehy were on the big picture of your life
arabella Ella: yes that is so true Fefonz
arabella Ella: altho i must admit i think i would find that rather difficult to do
arabella Ella: due to the subjectivity of problematic experiences
arabella Ella: but i am finding i can see things from a distance while still involved in them
arabella Ella: a meta point of view
Fefonz Quan nods
Qt Core: seeing things from "above" is quite easy (at least i found it easy) i find much more difficould act after seeing abd deciding
Mickorod Renard: what are those sea creatures that act like jets,,consuming and blasting it out the back?
arabella Ella: yes Qt our subjectivity often constrains us plus decisions are not always easy to take
arabella Ella: and there are always other factors too ....
arabella Ella: what sea creatures mick ... could you describe them please?
Fefonz Quan: ? Mick?
Wester Kiranov: what happened to our 90 seconds silence?
Scathach Rhiadra: mmm, yes just wonderinf=g thast:)
Scathach Rhiadra: that*
arabella Ella: the hour is over i guess so no 90 min silence now
Mickorod Renard: hi
Wester Kiranov: the bell was ignored (or just not noticed) twice in the last hour
Scathach Rhiadra nods
Fefonz Quan was silently bserving his fingers appearing to type on a black keyboard
arabella Ella: oh
Wester Kiranov: and as far as I am concerned, if we're in this pavilion we might as well obeserve that silence period
Wester Kiranov: *observe
Fefonz Quan nods
arabella Ella: yes Wester you are right of course ... I suggest you gently remind those of us who may forget ... me included ... apologies!
Storm Nordwind can add another visual cue (like making the pool glow very slightly) for the 90 seconds - if people think something like that would help
Fefonz Quan: yes, sometimes we don't have voice
Fefonz Quan: .... silancio.....
Qt Core: i was thinking about people who would like to shut their eyes in that time
Storm Nordwind: I am going to add a small queit bell at the end of the 90 seconds
Storm Nordwind: *quiet
Fefonz Quan: cool
Qt Core: so a gentle sound could be useful too at the ent
Qt Core: ohh, ty storm
Scathach Rhiadra: yes please, that would be good:)
arabella Ella: yes ty
Wester Kiranov: I'd like that
Mickorod Renard: what about some budhist chant too?
Mickorod Renard: or horns
Storm Nordwind: Pema only requested this 3 hours ago, so this the first outing. Thank you all for the feedback
Scathach Rhiadra: mmm, don't think so Mick:)
Fefonz Quan: there are groups in SL for that Mick :)
Storm Nordwind throws a cushion at Mick
Mickorod Renard: he he he
Storm Nordwind: Does anyone want a visual cue too (in addition to the green lines of text)?
Fefonz Quan: yep!
Mickorod Renard: please
Storm Nordwind: I'll see what I can do that's subtle
arabella Ella: i think a chat reminder by one of us here would help ... in regular chat ... not the script greeny type
arabella Ella: plus the bell at the end of 90 sec too ... would be great
Wester Kiranov: a reminder in the chat, i think that's a good idea
arabella Ella: mind you the green script is great but some times when engrossed we (means I) tend to overlook it
Storm Nordwind remembers Moon's sirens and fireworks at the old Pavilion in Rieul >.<
Wester Kiranov: ty ara
