Thanks, @moderndayhippie. I'm sorry about my late reply. I'm still getting the hang of monitoring and replying to comments. I'm not used to getting replies to my posts.
But I started working with the Steem Engine and Bam!, there they are.
As to voting trails, I got my butt kicked by them a few days ago, and am still recovering. Don't do 100%, and just do one guild. I would do something like that and put them at 10% that way I don't get completely whacked on VP. I have just applied to @qurator, so we'll see what happens.
Alan Watts totally changed my perspective on life, and his work is a big part of why I'm agnostic about everything. I want to be able to see, as clearly as possible, what happens next. So to do that, I've tried to set aside as many beliefs as possible and still be sane.
I think that the hippies of the 60's and 70's really did dig Watts, too. And I'm glad to find other people with common ground. I write what I want to write thinking that hey, there are 7 billion people on the planet. There is at least one person besides my mom, who likes my work. :)
Anywho, have a great day and write on.
