Welcome to Words! I never thought of myself as a writer until I retired and started to enjoy composing words. I like to think of my writing the same way that I think of my website, art and music… Aesthetically good works and especially good at helping others feel something of what I feel. -Ed… Continue reading Foreword

Growing Up
I was born in the same year that the original sci-fi movie, “The Day the Earth Stood Still,” was released. Being bipolar disordered, this knowledge triggers mild temporary delusional mania in my grand little illusionary brain… It’s soon squelched after a quick smile. I didn’t have a good relationship with my parents. My five years… Continue reading Growing Up
Bipolar
I’m like the 9 year old in your family that wants to gain your interest by banging his own little wacky doodle head with a soft plastic toy bowling pin.🤪 My grandparents made an 8mm movie reel of me doing just that. I’ve known for a very long time that my “attic” is full of… Continue reading Bipolar
Episode
I happen to be bipolar, but that’s not how I identify myself. For most of my life, I’ve identified simply as a working family man. I have a loving family and I’ve worked more than one profession. I’m retired now so it’s time to relax, smell the roses, and share. Because both the mentally ill… Continue reading Episode
Off Grid
“Off grid” is a term indicating non conforming. It’s used for example, to describe a CAD datapoint that’s outside the established computer design coordinate system. It’s also used to categorize people who live in the wilderness independent from mainstream society. In Words, I write a bit about my spiritual thinking. My thoughts flow somewhat outside… Continue reading Off Grid
The Road
“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will… Continue reading The Road
Sean of the South
Truth is the MOST important ingredient of Ed’s Art Net… Heck, the whole Universe! I don’t struggle with truth but I struggle with fluid and uncluttered thinking, especially when writing. It’s a gene thing but it’s okay! I think that I’m getting better at writing and I’m feeling better mentally these days. Probably because I… Continue reading Sean of the South
Well Spaced
Sometimes I think I would make a good spaceman… I enjoy being alone as much as being with others because I have my Art brain. The Internet is well ‘space’ suited for “alone” remote audience commonology oriented work like Ed’s ArtSite. Because the Internet is crowdless. Nobody physically goes there. The world wide web exists only within the electronic ether. … Continue reading Well Spaced
God Package
I was introduced to Christianity at an early age. I was a typical wacky kid with a wild imagination. While I was growing up, I maintained God’s image from the seed in my little child’s brain as a beautiful, older than anybody, white haired, white robed, bearded, distant, brightly glowing super Man with a tall staff… Continue reading God Package
Birds
work, sing and playlike the songbird greets the sunwith thanks for a new dayand grace from an old one I’ve mentioned that I have a knack for the obvious. So this post is not going to surprise you. Of all the creatures I’ve personally encountered, birds are the most spiritually inspiring. First off, they personify… Continue reading Birds
