Scott:
Hi Ed, Thanks so much for a nice birthday celebration yesterday at Sweet Adeline's bakery! I've begun to write in the beautiful Marco Polo creative journal already! My new book "To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually! ..." is supposed to arrive tomorrow per text this morning. Let's find a time for me to give it to you! Fondly, Scott

Hi Ed, glad to write my 4th book, "To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually!: How different it is to soak at Harbin Hot Springs, than to realize it in virtual Reality" (10 books of 4th book) arrived today ! :)
Hi Ed, glad to write my 4th book, "To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually!: How different it is to soak at Harbin Hot Springs, than to realize it in virtual Reality" (10 books of 4th book) arrived today ! :)
Would like to give you a copy ... let's perchance find a time to get together for this and a hike or a treat! :)
Blogged about your great 'Marco Polo Journal' gift here ---- http://scott-macleod.blogspot.
Ed:
Hi Scott. It's great you are enjoying the active writing, the physical act, not the virtual. This is a lot more secure also.
As to the question, am I real?
Ed:
I like
This is I
croaked the rock
but I'll be gone by tomorrow
Scott:
:) thanks, will ponder this awhile, Ed
Hi Ed, how are you doing? The real? In what ways? ... that you symbolize (Lacan)? That you're authentic? That more styling of you as a great MD could grow the reality of what you are - as MD, father, husband, care-giver, thinker ?
Support of MDs at Stanford Medicine is an issue too ... how does KP do this (perhaps in little ways)? ... Would creative MD opportunities via KP help wirh identity crisis re the real? ... so a change of focus in part? ... and in a generative direction? (And what about even in creating online psychoanalysis for MDs, for ex.? ... brainstorming-wise).
I wonder too if the creation of a realistic virtual Harbin in VR could be coded for supporting MDs too, Ed!
(And even per my recent book) ... I find some people get a sense of real self soaking in the pools there (partly due to the releasing, - meditation it is)

Hi Ed, appreciating re what you wrote the Desiderata ('speak your truth quietly and clearly...' https://mwkworks.com/
And yes re the 'real,' and what Angela writes ... the real too is impermanent ... (like the symbolic and imaginary, Lacan's other 2 registers? ... perhaps) ... appreciating the impermanence of the real in your thinking (a difficult word to define for Lacan, but where George used the example of a physical table) ... so thanks for your texts ... hoping said 'real identity crisis' is navigable, manageable, talk-able about :)
Thank too for your (these) interesting and thought-provoking text messages

Spa architecture in Greece? This Kaiafas Spa (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hot_springs) building is a lot like the somewhat new spa building at Eftalou, on Lesvos, Greece, very close to Angela and Victor's Yoga Hall ...
This Kaiafas Spa building is in Zacharo (Greek: Ζαχάρω) which is a town and municipality in southwestern Greece - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zacharo.
