Instinct and Intuition

Instinct everyone knows about. It is what allows a baby to be born and to be able to breathe air and suckle at his mother's breast and to bond with her "external placentas or external umbilical cord" her breasts for food and comfort.

So, this bond is the beginning of each humans potential. I was lucky that my mother was a natural intuitive and a full blooded Scot which made me  half Scottish. She was always very calm and usually never said an unkind word about anyone. So she was always kind of amazing that way.

Depending upon where you live you will learn different aspects of instinct and intuition. So, because of this you likely will be more suited to the environments you grow up in. However, then there are people like myself that lived about 50 places between the ages of birth and  40, so you learn to adapt to wherever you  move to fairly quickly. This also helps when you travel to other countries as well in being a fast study about what it takes to survive in a completely new environment. However, since the age of about 45 I have lived only in my wife and my two homes we have owned, one for 5 years and one so far for over 15 years.

However, I must say that I had some panic attacks when I first went to places like India in the 1980s where people's bodies might be laying dead on the streets with no one picking them up and removing them then or seeing people with leprosy with no noses or fingers many different places.

But, instinct and intuition are usually culturally conditioned to where you live on earth through your family. And your religion or lack of one is also usually culturally conditioned also by your surroundings.

So, what you choose to believe or are forced to believe or not believe has a lot to do with how you tend to think about all these things throughout your life.

For example, both my parents loved the out of doors so I had a lot of time on weekends and vacations to learn about mountains, oceans, deserts, trees, animals and wildness of the Western States which I always found really wonderful growing up in the 1950s and onwards.

So, as I moved through my life I always saw wildness wildernesses and nature more my church than anything else, because in the end nature is where all religions came from in the first place. So, in nature will you more naturally find your place in the universe more than any other single place.

So, if something upsets me in life my first thought is to go into the wilderness and usually after I go into the wilderness I'm usually a whole lot better coming out of it than when I went in.

So, in understanding where we all came from originally, there is a groundedness that just doesn't exist in large cities of people.

So, this is my thought: "When Wilderness is gone humans will tend to go crazy and drive themselves extinct". So, if you live in a place where there is still wilderness for you to visit, just know you might be able to stay sane by having access to it. But, I worry eventually there will be no wilderness left and then I believe we might go extinct through overpopulation. This is my concern.
