HIVE CHALLENGE - Quarantine Goals to Save your Souls

I'm starting to appreciate the opportunity to write these challenges despite being initially leery at doing so. Being given a prompt by these #HIVE guys really helps me to focus on a written piece of work that has enough of a scope to satisfy my obsession with investigation & research. It's a relief to know that when I begin one of these, I will finish it in one setting. So yeah, thanks for these prompts.

The introductory comments regarding how Covid-19 is changing the way we live and will continue to do so made me fart; a squelchy, sickly one like a cloud of acidic pollution. It's not so much the sentiment expressed of an irrevocable change having occurred with Covid-19, it's the deflection of trying to understand on a personal level what will irrevocably change for me, for you or for anyone at all.

Once the quarantine is lifted because the powers that be finally had mercy upon us enough to control Covid-19 worldwide, we can sit back, breathe a sigh of relief and blankly say to ourselves "nothing will go back to how it was." The author here states that the virus definitely changed how we lived and it will affect how we spend our days from now on.

Changed or Destroyed?

Definitely changed? No, it has destroyed the notion of how we once lived. It has destroyed a comfort we never knew we had back then. We never knew that a bio-organism could paralyze the world with it's exponentially inflating financial systems of indebtedness, that it could reach practically ever corner of the world and impact us in ways unexpected, and completely unprepared for.

On a side note, I still have six rolls of toilet paper remaining. I gathered a modest stockpile back in January when first reports started filtering through on-line: several weeks prior to the WHO, UN, CDC and MSM providing any public service announcements.

The pre-pandemic happiness in ignorance is gone and I will never be able to harbor any allusions again regarding the safety that society and my position within it is meant to provide. To seek a positive out of this house-arrest (this quarantine of 23 days insofar) will be my goal of my writing here. Destruction of allusions so completely can still prepare the fallow fields to regrow and bear fruit for a future harvest.

ISAAC NEWTON

Interesting to read that he suffered like the entire globe is now: he was under self-quarantine during the Bubonic Plague? Never knew but don't doubt it, although it wouldn't have been called "self-quarantine" in the mid 1600's I think.

My turn now: Did you know he was a prolific researcher & scholar not just of mathematical and scientific areas? He was extremely dedicated to creating his own religious interpretations relating to the Holy Trinity. What I find of greater interest was his passion for Alchemical Arts: it was an occult practice which he pursued keenly. Alchemy combined the analytical and computational genius of his intellect with the alluring curiosity to investigate the unknown.

Reviewing some online archives, you can see many such alchemical, metaphysical, religious and occult works. He also studied Freemasonry and can be safely assumed to have been one due to his higher personage and astounding breadth of knowledge.

Ironic to see that Sir Isaac Newton had a fixation upon the apocalypse and predicting it, something I can relate to entirely. Well, far more than alchemy or freemasonry.

Recipe Translated from Latin:

Translation: In cases of malignant fevers and plague, mix this spirit with equal amounts of grossly powdered Virginia snakeroot and Spanish contrayerva so that the spirit floats on top to the thickness of two or three fingers. Digest for two or three days. Pour off the spirit by tilting the vessel. The same dose as above will now provoke the sweat more.

Translation: The tincture extracted by means of this menstruum from Opium and Cochineal in equal amounts induces sweat and sleep.

And here's an interesting article Wired Magazine dated May 2014: "The Strange, Secret History of Isaac Newton's Papers." In this article, Wired interviews a researcher and biographer who discusses the focus of her biography on Sir Isaac in considerable detail. By the end of t his article, we come to realise that Sir Isaac would have been deemed a Heretic or worse if these more esoteric and occult works were published during his lifetime.

The parallels from the past are so fascinating when compared with our struggles today; aren't they?

The shittest status quo of my lifetime & rename it #QuarantineDeath

I actually love this paragraph by the original author

If after this quarantine, we come out of the house the same person we were before all this madness and chaos, then this wasn't about time, stress or daily worries... we simply didn't achieve anything else in life because of our laziness, lack of drive and abundance of excuses.

So What Next?

I had Covid 19 and I survived. I don't have much else to add to this except the day will come when there will be no more regard given to those who so willingly put us into cells.
As long as we retain a desire to not be imprisoned, to not let authority choose the path our lives follow then soon, very soon we will start to subconsciously share the same essential thought.

Well, what are we waiting for?

Well this was quite the informative article. Safe to say sir Newton would have done well with his eccentric theories in this age, specially during the ramble's pypt. lol

Anyways, happy to hear you're now cured, can't wait for when all of us jail break!
