Newness

Today is a day of newness. A sort of nebulous feeling of such. Let's explore.

This morning when I drove into work, I felt a newness to everything. To myself. To the air. To reality. I feel this sensation sometimes, but today it is particularly strong.

During the staff meeting, one of my coworkers joked about me having alien DNA (we were discussing allergies and I shared how my allergies just stopped existing one year). To which I said, "Probably" as I hid a grin behind my coffee cup.

We've been having an "issue" at work, and everyone is freaked out. I have realized my job this week has been to simply be there and act normal while everyone else flails about. So, that's what I've been doing. I'm plugged in right next to the team responsible for handling such issues, and I do hope my presence has helped them all feel calm and rested.

Mostly that's what I'm there for is to provide my presence to stabilize everyone who can handle that, and destabilize the Earth Matrix programs.

Anyway, today everything feels new. I feel new. A little giddy. Not excited like I'm anticipating something. Just giddy. Feels a little bit like being in love being with alive. Something like that. That's a wonderful feeling to have.

Last night, sometime in the middle of the night, I had a dream where everyone was speaking Taygetan. I woke up and tried to remember what it sounded like. I recall that you all say it sounds a little like Navajo, so yesterday afternoon I decided to listen to pronunciations for that language. To understand the diacritics, of which there are many, but now I see them as like notes on a sheet of music determining which pitch of sound.

Then I sat and stared at what Mari wrote for me and had me practice comprehending telepathically. And I slowly tried to sound out the words following the diacritics like I'd follow notes in sheet music. I'll continue to do that privately for now.

I've realized there's a blockage around channeling languages (and speaking other languages in general--even Earth ones), and I sat for a while this afternoon releasing that blockage. I'll spend a little more time working on releasing it after dinner. Lots of feelings of shame around that activity. That won't do and needs to go. It's not even me anyway.

In the meantime, enjoy some Legend of Zelda music played by an orchestra all the epic pieces. I love the "Ballad of the Goddess" here. Music I'd play in the background while I did heroic things in space.

Tears of the Kingdom still has one of the coolest openings to a game I've seen in a while. It's not just Link falling through the air, it's also the way the title card comes up. The way the camera pans around and you can see the actual game landscape. The way the music crescendos at just the right point. Just well done. Makes you feel heroic and like you're in a movie without overriding the game graphics with CGI. I hope whomever wrote that game's story, setting, and cinematic moments continues to work on future iterations.

Plus, the entire Nintendo Switch generation of Zelda games has just been the biggest love letter to Studio Ghibli.

I thank you for your time. Adiamas.
