How does one value the self?

How does one value the self?
What is one's natural identity?
Where is security of the self?

Does the geometry of all that is, care about its identity?
Are you not part of the whole circle?

Fear of tomorrow is like a bird who flies away from the flock because it thinks tomorrow there will be no food, that the other birds are leading him astray. In thinking, he stops living.

If you let others define the meaning of word, success, they will always be in charge of your success.

If you let others define your life as successful or unsuccessful, the bank, the job, the markets, the crops, the tides, public opinion, will control your success and be external from you.

What is your natural value?
Does it come from within or without?
Will you choose fear or choose love?
Will you choose what is today, or be in fear of tomorrow?

Will the illusion of space and time bring one to rituals and worship of the means to an end?
Or will life radiate superabundance, mystery and majesty?

When one values the world or sees it only in the way others do, he devalues himself and the others.

But the heart is deaf to measurements.

What good is today, if one fears for tomorrow?
What good is tomorrow if one cannot love today?

Knowledge is a double-edged sword

Knowledge is a double-edged sword on which many impale themselves. The mind onli knows how to cut and separate, because as itself alone, can never have or be anything of its own, it can onli cut everything else that is sees as the outer jungle. The mind can onli grasp things in duality, and loses sight of what is known deeper. Thus it is a tool as a veil that covers, and a tool as one that cuts, but never as one that knows what is meant to be covered, and what is meant to be cut. Wisdom is necessary to guide knowledge, else it becomes abuse of power. 'What is a good man but a bad man's teacher? What is a bad man but a good man's job? If you don't understand this, you will get lost, however intelligent you are.: It is the great secret.' Lao Tzu   https://www.organism.earth/library/document/tao-te-ching

: Sleep-apnea: solutions and healing, facial-development-theory and facts.

I'm not sleeping well now and I've had nightmares about drowning here and there since about 14 yrs old.  I remember waking up in the morning when I was a teen, trying to get up earlier than the other kids just so they wouldn't try to shame me about waking up later than them. 90% of those who have obstructive-sleep- apnea are undiagnosed. 65% to 80% of stroke patients also have Sleep-apnea. I couldn't admit to myself until recently, that I've had sleep apnea since I was a kid, periodically because of changes in growth versus the orthodontic treatment and teeth straightening procedures. I remember seeing a poster in a hallway before a school concert one night regarding the prevalence of sleep-apnea, but my mind rejected the possibility that I could be in that category. But my body knew there was something related to that.   I've always wondered if my teeth would have been better off without so much straightening from human hands and minds, if they were allowed to...

Gluten caused my teeth to get off track, my breathing to collapse

I remember thinking that allergies were something out there, or in the house that I couldn't control. I wondered why the rest of my family didn't have problems breathing for no apparent reason some days, when I did. Gluten > glue > poor-digestion > [autoimmune-reactions] body's-safety-system-self-harms > breathing and throat-airway-constriction > mouth-breathing causes malocclusion (see: mewing, orthotropics) > maloclusion causes other problems like further breathing-problems from lack of the correct-energy-flow-pathways. The allergies are actually coming from inside you, based on what you eat, at least much more than what is in the air with the pollen or dirt or animals.  Most allergies are just the peak of the iceberg, when the body is saying "I can't handle anymore! I have to sneeze."  It's what happens before you have allergies, that is the root-cause, not so much the allergies to a flower or dust or a cat.
