Hi gg. I don't have a what will be will be philosophy. On the contrary, I have defined reality now because I created the future long ago so that when it arrived as it relentlessly seems to do, it arrived in the form that suits me.

I do accept that I can't define ALL of the future. But I can have quite some influence on it. So things right now are not perfect. But pretty good compared with what would have been if I hadn't done all that design and foundation work years and decades ago.

Right now I'm defying the nihilistic fatalistic ideology which seems to be common around the world and reinforcing the idea in myself that I am a LOT more than something just washing along in the currents and tides of time, happy with whatever comes my way. Though that's an important part of it.

And I do worry about him being an Einstein [more accurately, develop as well as his DNA allows]. So I give him cod liver oil, lecithin, iodized salt, sardines, feijoas, lemons, and stuff which I think helps grow brains and which he likes. He gets zero Coca Cola, lollies etc from me. The "Fluffy" was from Mummy at Benediction. It's boot camp with me. Life is a serious, but fun, battle. People need to learn young how to win it.
