I’ve been climbing up on my pyramid. Here: I have a photo:

I was born to be an excellent writer. Wait . . .
Maslow Proclaims Me to be a Born Writer!
Damn! They weren’t kidding about the value of bold and CAPS.

I Had to Put Up His Mug Shot

I’ve already spent most of an hour formatting this stupid article.

I had to learn the hard way how to turn an SVG into a JPG. As if I actually leaned anything. Just the usual BS from Microsoft insisting I use their Totally Stupid Version of Firefox called “Microsoft Edge.” Jeezus.

Here. I’ll just show you. Then maybe, maybe, maybe I’ll write something interesting or valuable or at least self-affirming.

All right, and okay. For all my complaining it really is interesting to learn about this pyramid and some other versions of it that are even stair-like or three-dimensional.

I simply didn’t know any of this. When you look at the simple pyramid up there you can see how you rise through your natural biological necessities and ultimately claim your esteem and at last your Self-Actualization.

Anyway, this video is less than 5 minutes long. (I may as well keep borrowing other people’s media.)

FYI. I got vaccinated yesterday morning and my left arm still aches and truth be told I have a touch of covid-brain, which I suffered from a year ago as well.

I thought I was getting vaccinated to help other people, but I already know that’s not true — no — I did it for myself. It’s a wonder and a mystery, but I feel it in my heart and soul.

This article is just another article. You don’t have to read it, but I had to write it.
