I know have an (obvious) idea for my extensive collection of sayings, inspirations and amusement currently stored in a large box. As a retired graphic designer and book designer, making a one-off for personal enjoyment is eminently do-able. Thanks.
Not boring at all I really enjoy listening it expands my mind I love the way you think I appreciate being able to hang out listen and learn thank you for your time looking forward to more have a good night
Oh wow. Memory unlocked! About 12-15 years ago I worked in a book store. I loved flipping through this on quiet nights in the shop. Such a fascinating and hefty tome.
The scavenger hunt for the book was so fun even though I was not one of the people who figured it out. Can’t hear the music or the trains. I wish we could hear them.
Got a copy that shipped to USA MI from the UK for 38.31 after tax & shipping. 1-3wks shipping. Looking forward to adding to my collection of conversation starters at my house
Wow! I was in an old book shop yeeeears ago in Monterey. My ex at the time was golfing and I drove around in his car amd needed somewhere to go. Anyway, I remember thumbing through this book. Should have nabbed it that day, dang.
Abraham, love the long format. Keep it up! Also KEEP your tag line. "Come along if you like it." You'll probably never get this because this video is months old now. But on the topic of books and GOD. Did you ever read "The Four Agreements" By Don Miguel Ruiz? I'd come along for a discussion on that!
Book publishing is so weird. I read David Halberstam's book The Children, about the SNCC, the Freedom Riders, and the Civil Rights movement of the early 1960s. At the end of the book, Halberstam just mentions in his acknowledgements that Gunnar Myrdal's An American Dilemma is the best, most insightful book he's ever read.... So, I decided to get a copy.... Jesus Mary--all the copies are ridiculously expensive.... I ended up getting a hardcover 1962 edition from a Goodwill somewhere for a hundred bucks---which was below market value, from what I could see..... But that book is totally worth it. Halberstam was right. Even though it was written in 1944, it's still very contemporary..... My point is, the fact there's lots of demand, for a book that's out of print? Seemingly, that doesn't mean jack. Gustav Hasford's books about the Vietnam War (The Short-Timers and The Phantom Blooper) are long out of print, and insanely hard to find.
Abraham, you're such a fascinating person. I've seen your studio now, but I still don't know what you do for a living. I know you sell puzzles online, but is that your main career? You obviously have a passion for words. Are you a writer?
This is random I would love to hear your thoughts on “Deep Adaptation”. I think some of it is flawed but I really like the 4 R’s to consider and I do believe climate change will impact us not only in a ecological but social way. “Resilience: what do we most value that we want to keep, and how? Relinquishment: what do we need to let go of so as not to make matters worse? Restoration: what could we bring back to help us with these difficult times? Reconciliation: with what and whom shall we make peace as we awaken to our mutual mortality?” (I would add to the last part what do we need to not forget in this reconciliation?)
Any ideas of what could help children: 1) appreciate and value our planet as more than a commodity to be plundered 2) understand our impact 3) help change our societal short-sighted perspective of time 3) relearn skills required in future 4) address the social emotional aspects of a changing climate.
I encourage you to do something you're already going to do when you feel like it even though you'll do it when you feel like it no matter what this comment says. May your trails be boring. 🪴
Woo! Episode 2! It's not boring at all. It kinda feels like hanging out with you for a few minutes more than watching a video.
As a former PK who just found you... I want to tell you that you sir, are an absolute gem.
I am so glad I searched and found the book at $89 a few months ago! It is amazing!

It's obvious to see that you practice thinking deeply. Thanks for uploading.

Can’t hear the music or the trains. I wish we could hear them.
I'm glad I'm not the only one wanting to hear the music and trains😭😭😭
I bought a copy for around $80 with shipping. I've never seen a book quite like it. Cool recommendation.
Thanks for the awesome lead. I found a copy at my price!🤫👍
Awesome book, the title is perfect

Is this book for anyone or mainly for artists?

Not my style of book, but I'm glad to have you on TH-cam! Commenting for the algorithm.
No Hidden Meanings an Eschatological Laundry List by Sheldon Knopf is wonderful and also rare. You've probably read it. If not, do so.
Is that a Wordle blanket behind you?
I thought it was, Keep Looking OK

bro really speaking facts
Sounds a bit like Meditations from Marcus Aurelius. But with pictures, and much more recent quotes.

The only reason anyone knows who this guy is is because of his dad. Yet he uses his dad's platform to try and defame Christ. Tragic.
