bodyYeah, as a west coaster from Oregon, yeah, was asking what it all meant when I was about seven and it grew with age and I am 33 now and I guess people do tend to think about it earlier on the west than the the east like you said and I was on the east and met people on the east. # China is interesting. I was in Vietnam. Good to ponder life. Great to think about what we might be Living For (L4) and when we got important things to share, we can spread it more in parodies, through smiling, songs, memes, music videos, if we don't take ourselves too serious with life truths, proverbs, etc.

titleDon't Worry, Take Action, Get Results
bodyThis passage is from the book 365 Tao ![worrying.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZXtQeGhREjjsG1K7uB4oQkgcXHNREQRxD4wGw5zUiQps/worrying.jpg) Worry Worry is an addiction That interferes with compassion. Worry is a problem that seems to be rampant. Perhaps it is due to the nature of our overly advanced civilization; perhaps it is a measure of our own spiritual degeneracy. Whatever the source, it is clear that worry is not useful. It is a cancer of the emotions – concern gone compulsive. It eats away at body and mind. It does no good to say, “Don’t think about it.” You’ll only worry more. It is far better to keep walking your path, changing what you can. The rest must be dissolved in compassion. In this world of infants with immune deficiencies, racial injustice, economic imbalance, personal violence, and international conflict, it is impossible to address everyone’s concerns. Taking care of yourself and doing something good for those whom you meet is enough. That is compassion, and we must exercise it even in the face of the overwhelming odds. Whenever you meet a problem, help if it is in your power to do so. After you have acted, withdraw and be unconcerned about it. Walk on without ever mentioning it to anybody. Then there is no worry, because there has been action. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ This is my response: ![action-changes-things-452-679x388.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRRt5UgPbPKhQfDRsCobU3xnEQkpnSLD5tXVciqTniW4H/action-changes-things-452-679x388.JPG) Ordinarily I wouldn’t have anything to say about this passage. I am the type of person to take action in the face of problems, either to resolve them quickly or to prevent them from getting bigger. Indeed, the most common thing I used to say to my ex-wife was “don’t worry” when she was obsessing about something small in the future, or even about something big in the future. My attitude has always been if it is small we shouldn’t be discussing it, and if it is big we should be discussing it, so talking and then taking action eliminates the need to worry about it. I have generally had the same attitude toward anger. It is worth getting angry about things over which you have control, but which are not working as you wish. If you do have control, then sufficient planning should help things go as you wish, and if you don’t have control, then getting angry is pointless. These were things I kept telling my ex-wife in the early days of our marriage (in 2000 and 2001) because she had an anger problem. She would worry about everything, and she would get angry about very small things. It was her default reaction. She would worry because she had nothing better to do, and she would get angry because she didn’t know any better response to situations. When I was taking care of my two kids as a stay-at-home dad, I lived around my mother-in-law a lot. She did not get angry much, but she constantly worried about everything, and she told both me and my ex-wife about her worries daily. My ex-wife and I learned to filter out these worries since they had no impact on our family, but it was interesting to see the life of someone who always worries. My mother-in-law was a coward. She was afraid of everything: how people would think of her, how people would think of me and my ex-wife, what would happen with her family, what would happen with money, etc. She almost never took action, even when my ex-wife provided very detailed instructions about how to take even simple actions. So, instead of doing things, my mother-in-law simply asked us to do stuff for her, and then she worried the rest of the time about everything. I have learned that being worried means being limited in approach and looking only at the appearances of things. Worry not only interferes with compassion, it is the product of a lack of creativity and intelligence. My mother-in-law was crafty in that she knew how to manipulate people with her words and actions, but she had no clue how anything around her actually functioned. She lacked intelligence, or perception into the nature of reality, and therefore she did not think about new ways to accomplish things. She always talked about the way things were in Bulgaria, as if that was the way things were supposed to be. My own mother is not much better. At least my mother thinks about the nature of things and tries to look beyond surface appearances. Therefore my mother rarely worries about anything. However, despite this lack of worry, she still thinks that the way things are in her city is the way things are everywhere. She doesn’t think creativey. Therefore, all of her ideas come from someone else. I’m grateful that I didn’t learn how to worry from my mother, and therefore the lessons of this passage don’t really apply to me. Yet, I have to constantly remind myself that action is required on everything.

bodyHi joeyarnoldvn, thank you so much for commenting on my first post! I think most people start out as consumers because that is the only way to learn about the world around us. At a certain point, probably when we enter our 30s and 40s, I believe we start to ask "what does all of this mean?" if we are not too busy with our careers and families. As I traveled between Arizona and Boston or New York City for 25 years to obtain my college and graduate school education, I noticed that people on the West Coast started asking about the meaning of life much earlier than people on the East Coast. I concluded that the warm climate and the relative ease of living on the West Coast gave people more incentive to contemplate the meaning of life than people living on the East Coast. Now I am living in China and I am immersed in a culture that seems to take contemplating the meaning of life very seriously.

titleReading Myself in The Red Book
bodyIn 2 weeks I will attend my 20th college reunion. 2 weeks ago I told two of my colleagues at China Foreign Affairs University that I will attend my 20th reunion instead of going on a school-sponsored excursion in China. They responded by discussing how awkward their reunions were for high school and college. They met people at these reunions who they barely remembered. One colleague described herself as very shy, so she did not have many friends in high school or college. My other colleague told us that her reunions were always awkward because she kept in touch with former classmates through Facebook and Twitter, leaving almost nothing new to discuss at a formal reunion. I told them my case is different because Harvard University has alumni reports called “The [Number]th Anniversary Report,” so I have received the 5th, 10th, and 15th anniversary reports before I went to every reunion. The report is unofficially called “the red book” because it comes in a red cover, the Harvard Crimson red. Each book contains classmates’ names, location, occupation, phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, and social media web site addresses. I expect my red book to arrive by next Friday, May 18, because I go to my reunion in Boston on May 19. Before I went to the 15th Reunion in 2013 I discovered a novel called The Red Book, written by Deborah Copaken Kogan. It’s about four women who were roommates in the class of 1989 and return to Harvard in 2009. One of the characters in the novel is Clover Love. She is the female version of me. She came from a commune in California, was born to Hippie parents who practiced free love (hence the last name “Love”), and conceived in a field of clovers (hence, “Clover”). ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmPQpxwYdMB9pGtzbSKsRf3krg2Xnac1omVm1PmXPDvYBP/image.png) I grew up with hippie parents who were traveling musicians. Communes were a temporary home for me. More often I found home in my parents’ station wagon, with temporary stops at relatives’ houses, college campuses, national forests, air force bases, and highway rest stops, among other places. Clover Love grew up in extreme, abject poverty, barely able to watch television or eat food while she grew up. Her mother was a black, feminist, poet activist. Her father was a white musician who met her mother when he stopped by the commune to play music. My mother is a white feminist singer-songwriting political activist who was at protest marches in the 1960s and 1970s. My father is a black musician and philosopher who met my mother as he was stationed in Tucson, Arizona, at Davis Monthan Air Force Base, nearing retirement after 20 years of service. Clover witnessed rampant drug use and orgies. My parents smoked marijuana together and played music together, often in front of large crowds. Clover Love was a child of nature, but she hated the hippie environment and did not tell her parents that she applied to Harvard. I accepted my hippie lifestyle until I realized that, because we were poor, I couldn’t do many things I wanted to do. By the time I was 8 I decided to leave it, abandoning home school and entering public school. My parents’ hippie community created a parallel existence for me, a different universe with opposite rules. ![Harvard University.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYk3ycreZJT4HdUDeVsgm99ptvt3ALa6gKQbcinsoKXbo/Harvard%20University.jpg) Once Clover Love got to Harvard she abandoned her hippie heritage. She became an investment banker dealing in mortgage-backed securities at Lehman Brothers until it went bankrupt. She defines her life entirely by her job and her income. I would have had the same experience at Harvard and made the same decisions as Clover Love, except that my heart was broken during my Freshman year of college and I spent the remaining three years suffering depression. Reading about Clover Love gave me a completely different perspective about how my life could have turned out “if only” certain events had gone differently (if only my heart had not been broken....) I already knew about the Homeless to Harvard story, expressed by Lauralee Summer (Learning Joy from Dogs without Collars, Simon & Schuster, 2004) and by Elizabeth Murray, but this is the first reference, fictional or biographical, that I read containing the Hippie to Harvard story. ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmfSBKfyiMoJNEtiNUATT7fyzisWCD3S2dfXR2c2SVCepu/image.png) ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcCQ8N3wtFX6wk6ptwDhzPMwyDa6Vf77hSDW9sNUTc3qM/image.png) Reading this novel gave me a renewed appreciation for all that I have experienced since graduating. After I read the novel, I contacted Ms. Copaken to find out if the Clover Love character is based on a real person. Ms. Copaken told me the character is completely made up, but based on the model of someone like that growing up in the 1970s. At our 15th Reunion (Ms. Copaken’s 25th Reunion) I saw her speak about the novel. She told us that the motif of the novel is the shedding of people’s masks as they reunite after the 20th year. She said, at least for her class, their true selves came out as people realized they were all dealing with different kinds of successes and challenges in life.

bodyWhen I was younger, I was more a consumer and became a mystic as I got older, maybe at times, maybe around college, and I'm 33 now and might be an explorer now, or generally, on average in my life. # Grew up in Oregon, volunteered in Hawaii, and was working in Vietnam. I love travel and many things but prefer to stay in one place to let people come to me. Have ran around in life but I tend to try to get away from rat races in life. You are a smart man. I'm Oatmeal. nice to meet you. I'm near Seattle now.

bodyHello marriahstar! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you: 1. **Keep your passwords safe:** Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure. 2. **Get Steem rewards:** When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more. 3. **Upvote wisely:** When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power. 4. **Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power:** Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes. 5. **Have Fun and Enjoy!** _For a detailed writeup, check our post [Getting Started: 5 Essential Tips for New Users](https://steemit.com/@steemsociety/getting-started-5-essential-tips-for-new-users)._ Good luck on your Steem journey! Follow us if you like to receive more helpful tips and maximize your Steemit experience.

titleI Am An Explorer, Searching For Truth. Please Join Me!
bodyHi everyone at Steemit! I have another account here under @profmarriahstar. I will use that account to share writings and ideas as I prepare them for publication in various forms. For this account, I will talk about the experiences I have had, both in the distant past and in the recent past. In a sense, the @profmarriahstar account will be used to make a map of reality as much as possible. In contrast, this account will be used to explore all kind of experiences, the territory of life. ![marriah star-edited.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmNMpiAcg9mwyvozU7S6yKxzRSiGZWyAMHa3VCbbQeHRbN/marriah%20star-edited.jpg) I have identified that there are, in general, three kinds of people in this world: 1) consumers, 2) mystics, and 3) explorers. The consumer ![consumer-behavior.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmUR4rU8ogasbh8QvW2yAdDiY7CYf7QWgkiK8ZTsGLSg1B/consumer-behavior.jpg) A consumer likes to experience all kinds of different things in life. I have a good friend who loves food and loves traveling all over Asia. I have traveled all over Europe. As consumers, we like exploring different things, sampling the enormous variety that Earth offers human beings – landscapes, plants, animals, climates, cities, natural vistas, musical styles, dance styles, culinary styles – the list is endless. The challenge with being a consumer is that it is so hard to appreciate everything when there is an infinite variety of experiences. The beauty of being a consumer is that this world is filled with infinite surprises! The mystic ![mystic-wallpaper-1280x800.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcUw1LtFuDyaMi3xip9h5Pq5wPnYQpMpDuXmqxwZsG3GL/mystic-wallpaper-1280x800.jpg) A mystic is the opposite of a consumer. While the consumer travels all over the world to experience the variety of life, like a train going to many destinations, the mystic stays in one place to meditate and dream, letting the world come to him (or her). By staying in one place and increasing the sensitivity of the physical senses (especially taste, touch, smell, and hearing because so much information comes in through sight), the mystic notices things that other people may not. The mystic has keen powers of observation and deduction, like the fictional Sherlock Holmes. The mystic can easily sit on a bench in a park (like Eckhart Tolle did) and observe everything happening in the environment. The challenge with being a mystic is that the mystic is so sensitive to all experiences, each experience takes time to process. The beauty of being a mystic is that the world is filled with amazing experiences that transform and improve the person having the experience. The explorer ![world-explorer-clipart-1.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmf8Ye6oJJuQRjq1DEuFYt1M62f1i2DUrBMw4S8iVNFS7m/world-explorer-clipart-1.jpg) An explorer is in the middle between the consumer and the mystic. While the consumer might say “nothing is amazing” and the mystic may say “everything is amazing,” the explorer says “some things are amazing and I want to find them.” Every explorer depends on a combination of good maps and intuition to function in a new environment. Once the explorer finds something amazing, his or her greatest desire is to share this discovery with everyone on the planet. The challenge with being an explorer is that sometimes maps are inaccurate and the explorer reaches what seems to be a dead end. The beauty of being an explorer is that with luck and hard work, even a little bit of patience, the explorer eventually discovers something that improves everyone’s life. I have been an explorer in academia for 25 years. Now I am in China, exploring Chinese culture and history while I teach international relations to students at China Foreign Affairs University. I also have a huge collection of movies and TV shows. I use this collection to explore American culture and history. The best thing about Steemit is that I get to explore life with other people every day and get paid for it. This is a much better idea than the previous attempts at social media, including Twitter and Facebook. Thank you for joining me on this great journey, and please share your discoveries with me!

      "body": "Hi everyone at Steemit! I have another account here under @profmarriahstar. I will use that account to share writings and ideas as I prepare them for publication in various forms. For this account, I will talk about the experiences I have had, both in the distant past and in the recent past. In a sense, the @profmarriahstar account will be used to make a map of reality as much as possible. In contrast, this account will be used to explore all kind of experiences, the territory of life. \n![marriah star-edited.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmNMpiAcg9mwyvozU7S6yKxzRSiGZWyAMHa3VCbbQeHRbN/marriah%20star-edited.jpg)\n\nI have identified that there are, in general, three kinds of people in this world: 1) consumers, 2) mystics, and 3) explorers. \n\n\nThe consumer\n![consumer-behavior.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmUR4rU8ogasbh8QvW2yAdDiY7CYf7QWgkiK8ZTsGLSg1B/consumer-behavior.jpg)\n\nA consumer likes to experience all kinds of different things in life. I have a good friend who loves food and loves traveling all over Asia. I have traveled all over Europe. As consumers, we like exploring different things, sampling the enormous variety that Earth offers human beings – landscapes, plants, animals, climates, cities, natural vistas, musical styles, dance styles, culinary styles – the list is endless. The challenge with being a consumer is that it is so hard to appreciate everything when there is an infinite variety of experiences. The beauty of being a consumer is that this world is filled with infinite surprises! \n\n\n\nThe mystic\n![mystic-wallpaper-1280x800.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcUw1LtFuDyaMi3xip9h5Pq5wPnYQpMpDuXmqxwZsG3GL/mystic-wallpaper-1280x800.jpg)\n\nA mystic is the opposite of a consumer. While the consumer travels all over the world to experience the variety of life, like a train going to many destinations, the mystic stays in one place to meditate and dream, letting the world come to him (or her). By staying in one place and increasing the sensitivity of the physical senses (especially taste, touch, smell, and hearing because so much information comes in through sight), the mystic notices things that other people may not. The mystic has keen powers of observation and deduction, like the fictional Sherlock Holmes. The mystic can easily sit on a bench in a park (like Eckhart Tolle did) and observe everything happening in the environment. The challenge with being a mystic is that the mystic is so sensitive to all experiences, each experience takes time to process. The beauty of being a mystic is that the world is filled with amazing experiences that transform and improve the person having the experience. \n\nThe explorer\n![world-explorer-clipart-1.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmf8Ye6oJJuQRjq1DEuFYt1M62f1i2DUrBMw4S8iVNFS7m/world-explorer-clipart-1.jpg)\n\nAn explorer is in the middle between the consumer and the mystic. While the consumer might say “nothing is amazing” and the mystic may say “everything is amazing,” the explorer says “some things are amazing and I want to find them.” Every explorer depends on a combination of good maps and intuition to function in a new environment. Once the explorer finds something amazing, his or her greatest desire is to share this discovery with everyone on the planet. The challenge with being an explorer is that sometimes maps are inaccurate and the explorer reaches what seems to be a dead end. The beauty of being an explorer is that with luck and hard work, even a little bit of patience, the explorer eventually discovers something that improves everyone’s life. \n\nI have been an explorer in academia for 25 years. Now I am in China, exploring Chinese culture and history while I teach international relations to students at China Foreign Affairs University. I also have a huge collection of movies and TV shows. I use this collection to explore American culture and history. The best thing about Steemit is that I get to explore life with other people every day and get paid for it. This is a much better idea than the previous attempts at social media, including Twitter and Facebook. Thank you for joining me on this great journey, and please share your discoveries with me!",
