The evolution of the subconscious must be as cultivated as consciousness.

Koan? Let's talk fashion statement a moment. Little known factoid: Jennifer and Colin both consult with the same haberdashery.

Look into her eyes.
Jennifer is uptight. You know WHY?
Cuz it's just a "look" for her. It is just a look. It is a falsely arrived-at effort to look like me.

I, on the other hand, am LIVING the "look", the result of an active outdoor life.

I hereby invite Jennifer to join me where I can melt her furrowed brow and help her to free all that is trapped (tragically I might add) under those poseur sartorial efforts.

Either Colin needs a boob-job..or Jennifer needs 48 hours on the open road with the Itinerant. Id vote for the latter...

How?
Colin
Boom!, Happy New Year!

How? You asked, it is my opinion that we laugh at jokes and create from the subconscious, Dreams are an obvious window to that world.
So with comedy, creative "arts" and dreams we have direction to that energy that is subconscious.
What do we find funny? What inspires us to create? What are our dreams?
The quickest way to Get creative is to be bored, focus on times of boredom cultivate it, watch a clock move, or meditate I guess.
I'm sure Einstein had something to say about this creativity factor.
Boredom has been used to create in many medias throught time,
Watch kids get in trouble when they are bored!
Watch adults do the same!
The key to be aware, and set goal posts beyond fart jokes or similar creativity.
So my conclusion is this, Get bored, create, dream and watch how the evolution of your subconscious blossoms.
To be continued and added to hopefully.
Try and excuse my grammatical errors and appearance of incompleteness in my thoughts, I'm creating here.
I do not think in words, I only translate what I feel into them, everything is pictures in mind, so sometimes it comes out in ways I didn't intend.
And I'm not directing fart jokes at you or anyone on the forum, just a generalization to make a starting point.
Aloha

Editing is really hard for me, because it starts another train of thought altogether and everything becomes a word salad at some point.
After three edits I kept finding errors that I had just created while fixing the ones from the last edit , sorry.

Jennifer does look quite harried. Yes, she should disappear and spend a month on the itinerant circuit while all the bloggers, twits (those who tweet) and paparazzi try to figure out where she has gone. I'd love to be in the supermarket checkout lane, and see one of the tabloids with a telephoto of her helping Colin pull a CV joint from a bay window, in matching wife beaters, with cans of carb cleaner littering the site. "Jennifer Found! Thrown Under the Bus!" Or "New. Braless Pics of Jen...Is That Lithium Grease We See?" Or "Jen Goes Hippie, Takes Up With Road Gypsy!" One thing for certain...that brow would unfurrow.

Lol..

While I will say I (like most) wouldn't refuse Jen entry into my bedroom for any reason, she is looking a bit "older". That picture does capture her more mature appearance in her face. It looks a bit waxy in a weird way. I know she's now 45 and is still VERY attractive but it's kind of a bummer to see her aging vs. how she looked back on "Friends"..

I will also concur that there should be a "wife beater, short, shorts" competition/judging. Get both Colin and Jen strutting down a runway. Let one side of the crowd be her hollywood cronies and Colin's Itinerant gang on the other side. The person with the more boisterous applause, wins..

I find it disturbing that you even notice the furrowed brow. I hadn't until it was mentioned several times. :la:
