We can be so silly

in #life6 years ago (edited)
A good friend brought me one of the guitars I built for him a year ago or so. The visit was unannounced, but honestly very opportune. I suspect that the setup that he wants me to do on the guitar is more connected to his desire to find out if I'm doing OK, if I've gotten over the hump sort of speak.

Us boys can be so silly at times, and I mean that in the best of ways. Showing signs of concern, sometimes are construed as signs of weakness, as if a phone call or a visit that is solely done for the sake of saying hi, needs a manly excuse to pass under the radar undetected.

It's not that I don't get it, because I've done it myself so many times. There are a couple of elements at play and its extremely hard to generalize the dynamics, but I'm sure there is a considerable number of people who will relate to my thoughts on the matter.

After all, even after all the advancements in science and the undeniable cultural evolution, we fall back into the simpler understandings. Hierarchy within our social groups has never not been a factor throughout our existence. The concept of alpha, beta, omega of what have you, might be obscure to those who don't bother with sociology, but its effects and our primitive behaviors are still the underpinnings of our social interactions.

I guess that is why I find it silly at times. As someone who observes humanity as both a participant and a self proclaimed alien, I tend to be overly conscious of how primitive we can be, regardless of titles and fancy suits. No doubt emotional connections with other sapiens are at the core of needs, and those who we have chosen to love are part of our own unique recipe for peace.

I'll fix the guitar of course, I'll do the best job I can possibly do. But I know that's not why he visited me, and that actually makes me smile... all silliness aside.

Would you fix my guitar if I go visit?
Thanks always for your philosophy post. I confess I am not that good many times at reading people though I do consider myself a fair good observer. I confess I will go and read again now because as usual I need to dive deeper in them to find the decypher, and when I feel I may have left something important something is because I have.

100%

I disagree, i think you are quite good, you are just careful and maybe that is a great thing you have.

<3

Hahahah, you still bring the silly game here, I thought it belongs to us in the inner room... Hahahah

I never knew you make and repair guitar, thank God for your friend who was just silly around that makes you to reveal this part of you... Lol

Don't mind him, just try and be yourself, that's the best way he know how to behave.

Overlook and repair the guitar... Lol

Hi @meno ... just hi, hello...

hello my brother, when are we unveiling your magic?

I'm not sure tbh... how has it been working out for you?

I love it bro... i use it everyday, and I feel like we are missing out on something super ninja....

I use it every single day, every single post... never crashes... solid as a rock

Awesome :) I'm glad. I haven't worked on it much since I gave you it. I know the tts part either needs to be improved or removed. Have you used the tts much? I have it in my head that no one will want to use it given alternatives that exist out there. I use it and I'm happy to hear someone else likes it. Maybe I should get back to work on it and give people another alternative tool. I have a ton of ideas floating around for ways to improve this and other projects. I spent way to long working on it and got real burnt out and I have also been dealing with some health issues, so I have been giving it a bit of a break... I have considered opening the beta version up to all Helpie Members for the time being... a "resource for helpienauts"

I say do it, get their feedback too... i have not used the tts but i use just about everything else...

Nice content!!!!@meno
