I'm looking for larger scented candles but don't exactly want to spend $30. Does anyone know of any secondhand stores maybe selling furniture that also sell secondhand candles? Not seeing anything great on craigslist. Looking in DC preferably
Has anyone read any de Chardin? I'm working through The Phenomenon of Man, which addresses whether evolution has a direction and how man exemplifies what direction evolution is heading towards. He argues life grows and moves so as to maximize both structural/cellular complexity and consciousness which are interrelated. Interesting thoughts about how since there is no definitive point at which consciousness emerges, even matter we deem inorganic has a soul/life force/"within"-ness. And how beyond humans we can identify an organism or greater lifeform dubbed the noosphere consisting of our collective thoughts which envelop the Earth like another layer of atmosphere. And evolution converges toward an Omega point of pure love, etc. I know, you know, "I am the Alpha and the Omega" but I haven't fully read the Bible.
I haven't finished the book, just read some and learned about him in class, so my interpretation may be off. This kind of genre of scientific spiritualism (moreso than woo quantum, not that I'm super familiar though) appeals to me even if some interesting logical jumps are made. I am content day to day but know I'll regret not dying with a more constructured, cosmic viewpoint.
Looking for an electronic song with the lyric "I want to watch the sun rise with you" either sampled or sung. I believe the complete lyric is always sung just at different speeds. And I believe there is a lyric preceding the given lyric beginning with "I want to" as well. Thought it might be by Justice, Cassius, or soulwax but I can't find it.
