often ... and to sleep at night too.

The Person Beneath Me reads stuff on the internet to relax before going to bed.

Since that happens to be what I'm doing now, I'd have to say yes.

TPBM has made a change in their life recently.

many.

TPBM has decided to love the image in the mirror rather than be frustrated at comparing themselves, physically, to others.

Still working on that one. I certainly love many things about myself, but I can always find room for improvement.

TPBM has made a toy for themselves from scratch.

well *I* think your user pic is to DIE (and diet) for. capital "H" for "Hottie" and that is magnified by a googleplex by dint of your intellect and empathy for non-hominid 'neighbors'. TRES sexy.

as for an answer, oh HELL yesss. Bought wood-files and sandpaper and carving knives and also grew a wisteria bush just to cut the switches at "just the right moment" and use the petals for a secondary purpose as soothing scents during "relax time" after the switches were used.

Also made a plug of a pliable but firm substance.

T P B M

has been on a Valentine's Day outing with someone while sadly wondering about someone from their past, and hoping that would not make them perform "less admirably" for the person they were with, that day.

Wait, you can make switches from wisteria? I have one of those in the back yard!!! When, may I ask, is the right time to cut the switch?

As for your question, I don't think so. There have been special days that have made me nostalgic about people from my past, but it has never (to my knowledge) made me perform less admirably with the person I was with at the time. That person from my past is my past for a reason, and while I may wish them well in their journey, I'm fine with not being a part of that journey. I also tend to give myself time to heal before jumping into another relationship.

I did meet one of my exes at a single and bitter party a mutual friend was throwing for Valentine's Day.

TPBM actually knows where Valentine's Day comes from.

With the "arrows" and the fact that it's a Celebration of appreciating people PLATONICALLY, with no sexual or romantic n'oblesse oblige? HELL YES.

The PBM is equally aware that Pre Padraigh Erin (aka 'Ireland') did not worship a unified "Goddess" but in fact held-to a fully egalitarian Pantheon of many deities.

Of course. Even the Goddess wasn't one entity but rather had 3 personifications in the form of the maiden, mother, and crone, not to mention many other deities.

But I'm not sure what you're referencing with the arrows and Valentine's day. The story I know has to do with secret marriages for roman soldiers and the execution of the priest that performed the marriages (hence St. Valentine).

TPBM retains random bits of useless trivia that they find fascinating.

Most of which may be of less interest to others. i.e unenforceable laws still on the books. There used to be a newspaper column with such stuff.

The Person Beneath Me plays trivia games.

Ah yes, but the most important Tuatha De Dannan of the Irish Pantheon were De Morriga (who was Fea, who was Badb, who was Nemon, who was Macha), and the Dagda, and Brighaidhe (wrongfully subsumed into the persona of 'St. Bridget') and Aengus Mac Og (male god of good sex and poetry) wrongfully subsumed into the role of "St. Aengus". All equal, but never 'unified goddess divided into a female version of J. Campbell's many faced God theory'.

As for St. V's day, I was going off the opinion that The Feast of Lubercus would never be stymied by the Church (like the adoration of Brighaide and Aengus above, who were 'transformed' into saints), and so the celebration of Lubercus was - likewise - absorbed into the Catholic practice.

but USELESS, you say? oh, WOUNDED. Knowing why and how silver and other chemicals were used for photography isn't useless! Knowing the difference between Maori iconic-based art and Polynesian iconic based art isn't useless! harrumph, I playfully say! (but knowing the reason why the "ear lights" of the daleks in the Peter Cushing Doctor Who movies, as opposed to the perfect usage of the lights in the TV Show? THAT'S useless!!! and fascinating to Whovian Geeks)

NBA, I love learning about the various pantheons and stories surrounding them. I find it infinitely fascinating. I once read a description of the divine, likening it to a cut diamond. All religions look on the same gem as the divine power. Some see only one side, some see many facets, but all are viewing different parts of the same divine gem.

As for V day, this is the story that I remember learning in school. St. Valentine's Day began as a liturgical celebration of one or more early Christian saints named Valentinus. The most popular martyrology associated with Saint Valentine was that he was imprisoned for performing weddings for soldiers who were forbidden to marry and for ministering to Christians, who were persecuted under the Roman Empire. During his imprisonment, he is said to have healed the daughter of his jailer, Asterius. Legend states that before his execution he wrote her a letter "from your Valentine" as a farewell. link

I love random bits of useless information. It usually ends up not being that useless (sometimes).

To answer Dom68005's question, I usually don't play trivia games, but I love crosswords.

TPBM has a period of history that fascinates them.

true. I have been fascinated US odd history we seldom learned in school 1808 - 1899
much was learned digging into my family history. i.e. ancestors counted twice in the same year US census.

The Person Beneath Me has an interest in their family history.

"All religions look on the same gem as the divine power. Some see only one side, some see many facets, but all are viewing different parts of the same divine gem. "

not quite true. MAJOR difference between all of Campbell's beloved Belief Systems and the Pagan Irish, and Goddess based systems: The Irish NEVER believed that any creature, even 'divine' or immortal, had any form of moral mandate. They were never 'in the right' simply because they were a 'goddess' and confronted by a mortal. The mortal had the legal and ethical right to punich or kill a deity, if the deity was *in the wrong* (which they often were). Aside from Native American tales, I don't know of other Belief Systems that say Hera or Duurga can be murdered for making an egregious error.

"TPBM has a period of history that fascinates them."

oh yes, 5,000 BC to 2,500 BC

TPBM has at some point has enjoyed a desert that was SO good they remembered it over 15 years later!

I think we're all cross posting here. But that's okay.

I didn't say that the different religions believed that description, or even that it was Campbell was the one that wrote it (or the version that I read). What I meant to say was that I thought that it was a potent way to view theology as a whole from the outside, and that (in my mind, at least) it made the need to fight over differing belief systems miniscule and unimportant. Not that the devout ever really believed that. What other reason was there to justify the various crusades, genocides, conversions, etc.? I just liked the concept. We all view things through our own lense of experience and upbringing.

btw, I love the idea of holding the gods accountable for their fuck ups. Keeps them honest (sort of.....)

NBA, I haven't had a desert that I remember from that long ago. Mind you, there's whole sections of my youth that I don't remember with vivid clarity.......

DOM68005, I don't have a huge interest in my family history, but my mom has traced our family tree back at least 4 generations. I've visited 3rd cousins in Germany. My dad's family is a mystery to me. He had a falling out with them, so I never got to know any of them other than one brother.

TPBM has a favourite myth or fable that helped shape their views on the world.

"btw, I love the idea of holding the gods accountable for their fuck ups. Keeps them honest (sort of.....) " and that is The Hound of the Forge holding the Irish Goddess of Murder (and war) accountable.

a statue of such is in a place of great prestige in Dublin. Many places came from a place without "overview" so their belief systems do not have "overview".

I have seen the Ocean and swam in it more times than I have seen a woman smile. No joke.

Lover Ocean is the first great romance of my life, since the first time I spluttered as sea-foam went down my throat, before I learned my first word.

TPBM has never nearly died in a horrific manner.

I can honestly say yes, I have never nearly died in a horrific manner. But..... if it hadn't been a Volvo that I was driving....... the answer would be different.

TPBM has read historical accounts for pure personal enjoyment.
