    Tomorrow, June 21, will be summer solstice in the northern
    hemisphere and winter solstice in the southern hemisphere.

    Happy Solstice!

    It will also be National Indigenous Peoples Day here in Canada.

    Turtle Island Day may be a way
    to refer to what was a geographical area.

    It's odd to me to ponder a nation, a country,
    a group of people, a confederation of tribes,
    along with other identities taken as given.

    ...
    I plan to begin another attempt ...

    I said previously that it would be my final attempt, but if
    it fails I think I will try one more time ...

    Sometimes there appear to be multiple personalities,
    spirits, forms of energy which express their selves
    as going or not going to do an activity.

    They tend to cycle.
    Each one pushes the other one
    out of a frame of mind or intent.

    To watch them do that is curious.
    To identify with them occurs as wells.
    For me, two are involved with sobriety.
    The alcoholic tends to dominate.
    Hosts of others can emerge
    when observed over time.

    - thanks! Cheers!

    Thus it is quadruply auspicious.

    Today, given w'hat is known as the Sea,
    except spelled as CE as an axis temporarily,
    is six to six to six which is a triple of a sort.

    The to is probably m'ore like two.
    Six two-six, two-six. Which is also like too.

    The name, the ming, that is Chang Ming,
    has no spelling any one being mite knows.

    Three words, to, two and too.
    The name that names can be heard
    yet to herd them remains a mystery
    of the spelling of spells.

    Suspicious, prehaps.

    - thanks! aye. Cheers!
