Premium Member rocket ship toilet costs nineteen million
What is the cost of one space toilet, dear? Nineteen million, the price point is clear. Why is it so costly? What makes it great? Astronaut waste is stored for a later dumping date Sent into earth’s atmosphere where it burns up Urine is recycled for drinking. Go fetch your cup....

Premium Member Kindness Costs Nothing
Kindness Costs Nothing Miracle Man 10/30/2024 I’ve Found It’s true, “The best things in life are free” Not free stuff, but a prayer, a smile, a hug, or perhaps a kind word directed my way. An offer of help when I’m facing difficulty, whether needed/wanted or not. For after all, the thought also counts, and shows me that others care. Start today with a...

Premium Member The Living It Costs
So, we lie here again, under the same old moon. You are a constant my friend. So, we examine my fears, my tears and my thoughts. The reasons I fail, the silence, the pain, the living it costs. So, I know what you think. You rattle my cage each time I try sleep. So, your power over me?...

Premium Member Counting Cumulative Costs
What does it cost to love a degenerating Earth, home, habitat? Where NO TRESPASSING signs speak out for natural sound defensive silence, for spiritually medicinal fragrances only, in sacred space and times forbidding mechanized transport across Earth's MotherLands and feminist HealthCare Oceans. Degenerating natural landed bodies, spiritually disconnected minds cannot divide such universal costs against ego resilience too willing to sacrifice ecosystemic environmental health, transmogrifying into angry and frightened cosmic players in toxic EarthMother quicksand No...

Premium Member Costs of Freedom
The value of individual freedom seems impossible to quantify without at least knowing, What is this freedom for? What is this freeing political and economic purpose? Will my freedom and your egalitarian side by side sometimes competitive sometimes cooperatively multi-sided liberty liberate us to live in robust wealth of interdependent multicultural health? Is this individual freedom's disvalue to die in unhealthy, boring, lonely, divisive pathology of pretend autonomy for individualistic lack of thriving...

Premium Member At All Costs
As it is where do we stand in the face of fear? Fear for a child, a parent, a loved one or a peer! How do we rationalise the chances we take? A soldier may die in the experience he or she makes. But, that’s what their training and mindset are prepared to accept in the...
