--BELL--
Calvino Rabeni: so need to ... fill in the blank!

Paradise Tennant: laughs
Paradise Tennant: nice to be blank together :)
dranna Tempura: hm so need to not listen to anyone but myself lol
Paradise Tennant: think sometimes it is hard to hear your self ..
Paradise Tennant: just so many other drills get in your head .. the must dos, the should dos
Calvino Rabeni: over the din?
Paradise Tennant: yes do you not think we walk around with our own little din going on
Calvino Rabeni: maybe - I think it is noise to the extent it is not made my own
Paradise Tennant: the trick is to know where our volume control ... is .. how to turn it off or at the very least down
dranna Tempura: mine  is rather loud and opinionated lol no problem hearing it lol
Paradise Tennant: smiles at dranna ..
Paradise Tennant: all good to be yourself
dranna Tempura: I just have a habit of repeating what it says out loud lol
Paradise Tennant: that is what makes you the unique and charming you
Calvino Rabeni: Interesting if we could more easily try on the masks worn by others
Paradise Tennant: or touch them where they are the most real .. share  beingness J
--BELL--
Paradise Tennant: if we could do that trade masks what would it look like
Paradise Tennant: feel like I wonder
Calvino Rabeni: perhaps we might have an adjustable mask with switches and settings
Calvino Rabeni: adjustments
Calvino Rabeni: it might be like turning the speed up on the treadmill at the gym
Calvino Rabeni: setting it quite a bit faster, one would become an extrovert
Paradise Tennant: funny I was thinking it would be like a big swoooosh of water that would flow over you like ten buckets just dropped on you .. a wash of someone else .. that you would feel taste  be immersed in
Paradise Tennant: then would run off and you would be you again but for those few seconds .. there would be a different flow
dranna Tempura: I think the closest you come to the real you and another is when making love to one you love
Calvino Rabeni: it might max out, say, one would become a character or caricature like
Calvino Rabeni: oh, this computer is slow
Paradise Tennant: definitely flow in lovemaking :) an ultimate creative act :)
Calvino Rabeni: does one take off the mask for that ?
Paradise Tennant: so love makes us real ...
Paradise Tennant: or maybe love is what we really are .. :))) when we get away from it ..then we are wearing masks
dranna Tempura: when one is at a hm cannot think of the word for me it was always ,,like another world
Paradise Tennant: a hm works
dranna Tempura: no mask no anything just
Calvino Rabeni: Sorry friends, gtg as the computer is overheating for too long
Paradise Tennant: smiles nite nite cal :) sweet dreams :)
