' At Cingino Dam - located 7 kilometres (4 mi) southwest of Antrona Schieranco, Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola in Piedmont, Italy - you will find some Alpine ibex wild goats climbing its wall.
The Cingino Dam is just about vertical.
It is 160 feet high and these wild goats climb almost to the top of it.
This species of goat lives in the European Alps, it has split hooves with rubber like soles.
They are exceptional climbers...but to see them climb this vertical wall is absolutely stunning!
Why would they do it?
Their diet, which consists mostly of grass, gives them a major salt craving.
Coincidentally, the wall of Italy's Cingino Dam is built with salt encrusted stones - with the really good, salty stone blocks near the top of the dam.
So in order to get to these mineral rich salts, these goats do what looks to be impossible...they climb a vertical wall. '

' As Fern expressed the philosophy conversationally, in its simplest terms:
“You go up to a man, and you say, ‘How are things going, Joe?’ And he says, ‘Oh, fine, fine — couldn’t be better.’ And you look into his eyes, and you see things really couldn’t be much worse. When you get right down to it, everybody’s having a perfectly lousy time of it, and I mean everybody. And the hell of it is, nothing seems to help much.”
This philosophy did not sadden him. It did not make him brood.
It made him heartlessly watchful. '

' "The reason I told Ransom K. Fern to give you this letter only if your luck turned bad is that nobody thinks or notices anything as long as his luck is good. Why should he?
So have a look around for me, boy. And if you go broke and somebody comes along with a crazy proposition my advice is to take it. You might just learn something when you’re in a mood to learn something." '

We are having quite robust conversations about men and mythology in our private community groups recently.
We are having quite a few discussions about the work of Jordan Peterson and the polarization, the conflict surrounding his work; people who have experienced their lives being changed in profoundly positive ways as a result of being exposed to his work, people who have experienced violence that seems to be predicated upon parts of his work, or maybe reinforced by some of the rhetoric around his work... not necessarily from him, although I think partly sometimes... certainly, the way that his work is being talked about in certain spaces, there is a certain amount of violence that is going on, that I understand him to be in disapproval of that kind of dynamic.
I have been familiarizing myself increasingly with Jordan Peterson over I'm not sure how many years. It's been spotty. It's been here and there.
I'm watching 'The Rise of Jordan Peterson,' the documentary mentioned in Ian MacKenzie's first episode of The Mythic Masculine, which is linked above from the 25th of October.
I've never seen this documentary before.
The last few days I've been watching part by part, gradually, over the last couple of days. Maybe I started it yesterday. Maybe it's yesterday and today.
And there are so many really important touch points here for our groups around Intuitive Mythology, for our groups around Intuitive Edge, Intuitive Prowess, Intuitive Unknown.
Intuitive Social Intimacy is persistently, repeatedly invoked on the basis of the kinds of conflicts that are occurring in community spaces; conflicts that make people unsafe in their social environments; conflicts that do create dangerous scenarios, especially for severely disabled people, for trauma survivors, for people experiencing very different forms of gender expression, very different experiences of who they are inherently in terms of sex and gender, in how they can interact in their community spaces for work, for school; in how they can build relationships to be treated respectfully by other people.
And there are a lot of elements in all this that seem to just not be getting talked about at all.
I'm not seeing certain kinds of conversations to be part of this landscape at all.
Some of what I needed to find, I found in that episode of The Mythic Masculine, TheMythicMasculine.substack.com, Ian MacKenzie's site.
On the basis of this and some other materials that Intuitive private groups are processing together, we want to uplift some and more of these very important conversations we don't see happening anywhere.

"Life is suffering. And love is the desire to see unnecessary suffering ameliorated.
Truth is the handmaiden of love.
Dialogue is the pathway to truth.
So speech must be untrammelled, so that dialogue can take place; so that we can all humbly learn; so that truth can serve love; so that suffering can be ameliorated; so that we can all stumble forward towards the kingdom of God."
