Hmmm.
Is HERO Origins a Pathfinder manifestation for me?
Some serious thinking going on tonight.
It started with a reread of the description.
Struck a chord within right then. I had read the whole thing prior to purchase, but that jumped out at me tonight.
Transformation. It’s a choice, a chance, a branching point. A possibility. A timeline split. However you want to term it. For once, I recognize it prior. It’s always easy to see in hindsight, but rare at the time.
I feel (very strongly) it would not be appropriate to run any sort of sex scripting if one was running HERO. So, for me, it would be a stopping of my WB custom. I think InnerWork would synergize well with HERO. I think Alchemist would be good with it as well.
I can continue as is, and do fucking great. I’m enjoying life lately, overall. The option is to set aside fun stuff and focus on better things.
Is that a call I’m ready to answer? What contemplation because Saint hit publish yesterday!
I have a coworker I judge rather harshly because I feel he’s in the wrong line of work. Dude wants to direct, not lead. He should be doing some sort of consulting work, imo. I’ve told him as much. Ask a question, get an answer. But then he’ll mention of all the years spent at the current job, as though they would then be wasted or meaningless. 15 years at the same job in food service. Shrug. If you’ve been unhappy the whole time, find something else. Don’t waste time.
So for myself, I know that at my age I can still keep messing around pursuing sexual ends, trying to adjust myself to what…attract my wife more? I’m not interested in any extra marital relations. The fame aspect of WB, it’s fun, but I had it prior to running that one. It came about at work after I quit porn.
The speech aspect is a module, unless some sort of speech scripting is in HERO. Anyways.
I see this as the opportunity (FFS I’m using this word ALOT lately in daily life) to start a higher path. So interesting.
I could go on, but there’s not much point. The decision was made.
Interesting. I was going to reference a part of the Kolbrin, a document that resonates with me. YMMV.
In going to search for what I wanted, I first came upon this:
CRT:5:4 The circumstances, Enidvadew, of the traveller conform to the
law of sowing and reaping; he may travel in comfort or pain, happily or
sorrowfully, with strength or weakness, heavily burdened or lightly burdened,
well prepared or ill prepared. When the destination is set according to the
degrees of a former life, then the circumstances of the journey should
conform with the desire. For what use is it desiring a great destination when
the law of sowing and reaping decrees that an intolerable burden must be
carried on the way? Far better to have lesser aspirations. The decrees of fate
are many; the decrees of destiny are few.
How relevant. But what I was thinking of, aiming higher:
CRT:6:7 Dadam said, “These things I know too, for my eyes have always
been opened. I too have looked out into an endless plain without any horizon,
but I shall lead those who have grown strong through seeking and striving,
while those in your ranks will be weakened through indulgence in the
fleshpots and pleasure places of Earth. We are the disinherited, but not the
disowned; we have the seeds of victory within us. You and yours were never
more than you are, sons of the easy path, followers of the downhill road.”
So. The easy path, or the HERO’s path?
