This post was taken from the vault and you can find my previous post on positivity here. In the previous entry, I was not talking to myself, perhaps the isolation really has made me go bonkers.

What about negativity?

My philosophy uses the Ying Yang as quite a central symbol so yes, negativity is also amazing. It helps you think like a greedy entrepreneur or paradoxically, raise awareness about climate change. Positivity is the digestive process whereas negativity is the food.

When I get upset with someone, sometimes I have negative feelings about them that actually turn out to have helped me be less naive in retrospect. However, positivity digests most of that anger so that hopefully, what is left counts as wisdom.

Another benefit of negativity is that when I notice that it is becoming too present, I know I have to make a change.

The secret of positivity is that it encompasses a good knowledge of one's own limitations, including with compassion. Sometimes, enough is enough.

So if Zombie Apocalypse, happens, does positivity go out the window?

Probably, I would say so. You need an incentive to respect others and not have an ulterior motive. If you lack everything, it's a different system. Kill or be killed.

So, tell us about these beautiful pictures, are you proud of them?

Not really, well... actually yes, I love about them that they showcase my friendship with my ex. People are always so surprised, both he and I are like "are you kidding, get over yourself?"

Or as he says: "Bitch please?",

You know, when I sing I generally try to be, "bitch perfect."

We thoroughly enjoy watching Drag Race together!

So where is this, Squamish?

It is, how did you know?

Actually, funny you should ask because the picture above is Pemberton and the one below is Squamish. The indomitable Chief!

By the way, I would like to take the opportunity to shamelessly plug @pinmapple

Thank you, what an amazing dapp #ILIVE

So, are you aware that you are interviewing yourself?

What is this the Turing test? Well, in that case, of course I'm a machine duh. What a thing to say!

Who is this young man.

That is Simon, Ken's nephew and absolutely my muse as far as inspiration. I like his way of thinking, it's very different. I was a little worried that he might become a grumpy teenager but it never happened. I mean he fell in love with this ultra rambunctious vlogger called Jeffy who apparently used a very bad word in one of his videos.

It's so wonderful to be with you.

You too, you are wonderful.

Do you like taking pictures?

Yes... I love it. It gives me something to focus on, it's relaxing and so worth it to create memories.

So anyway, I feel like we got completely sidetracked, we were supposed to talk about negativity, you mentioned the Ying Yang?

Yes, it's all about sporting the good vibes. A song in a minor key is generally sadder or spookier, it can still be productive to reflect on those kinds of emotions, it's part of living the full human experience.

I think the Ying Yang is a beautiful symbol and I can only hope to one day have a deeper understanding of its exact significance. It can be very powerful in a magic practice because it can prevent a spell from running amok by stabilizing the energy. Furthermore, it has a philosophical use because for all it's simplicity, it activates a powerful thought. There is always a bit of good in evil and vice and versa. No matter the area of spirituality you go, it follows you around like a little puppy.

Yark! Yark! Yang!

Someone recently reminded me that inner beauty is most important as it radiates from within. I like to think that the reason this person thinks I'm super gorgeous on the inside is because of my story for all its faults and awkward moments; for all the guilt and shame I may carry with me.

If people still love you after they have seen what a jerk you can be at times, that is what life is made of, the building blocks of any social life. If there wasn't a self-saboteur, life would be boring, that's why the idea is to keep that voice in check.

Anyway, it's been real, myself, but I gotta go, I have an important appointment to go to on Zoom or whatever.
