Presence is to stay present and not futurist, it is better a future that arrives, than one that is more difficult, merely because imagination created an escape plan, the escape from self to live with another version of ourself.

We are imbedded in a culture to consume, this idea to find better places, is an ability to ‘buy better’, yet perhaps realize, the cost of better, needs more cost to keep it better.

Somewhere like Scotland, is littered with the history of better, thousands of broken castles, still the ruins of today, an ego of building better without sharing, and then the collapse of the bureaucracy unable to maintain the gains and promise of protection.

It is such an old story, yet repeats every day in the rent of human capability and not the capability of friendships beyond walls.

Nature does a sponge, accepting, changing, shrinking, expanding, living with the flow of life, with no absolutes.

It was never about the buildings, it is always about the friendships to be free of burden and demand from others and our lived patriarchy to assume more and learn less, all while admiring the advertised leadershit model.
