“Mobile homing” by

Throughout his entire human life, Harv has traveled. In retirement, Harv has developed Everlasting Travel, and more recently, Harv has appreciated both the local and non local aspects of Everlasting Travel. Then, as if a rolling stone gathers no moss, Harv began to develop thoughts about Mobile Homing.
The term Mobile Homing came from the idea of
his growing comfort with his mobile home or re-creation vehicle (RV). That RV,
beyond a simple recreation vehicle, facilitates freedom within his territory.
Human territory for Harv equates to his
world, contrasted with the earth world as inhabited by 100 billion humans and
their collective thoughts, talks, and writings.
If one sits on a ‘fence’ 10,000
miles from the human earth world, the earth’s living human population,
their spirituality, and their material possessions are not apparent.
Fence-sitting was sparked in Harv’s
mind by a one-hour religious discussion in a public restaurant. That idea has
everything to do with Harv’s mobile homing.
Perhaps the human homing function can be
identified as the facilitation of the basic human needs of existence,
relatedness, and growth.
FACILITATE: transitive verb: to make easier: help bring about <facilitate economic recovery>: Synonyms EASE 3 [EASE: freedom from or mitigation of pain <medication brought him instant ease>: Synonyms alleviation, easement, mitigation, relief: Related Word decrease, diminishment, moderation, reduction; calming, soothing: Contrasted Words discomfort, unrest; agony, pain]. (M-W.com).
Harv has labored long with the idea of a life
of ease – always by working harder, or working more. Working smarter for
Harv – never coming close to ‘instant genius’ – also
entailed working more. Fence climbing may well be an apt description of the
process, worthy of further exploratory thought.
FUNCTION: synonyms FUNCTION,
OFFICE, DUTY, PROVINCE mean the acts or operations expected of a person or
thing. FUNCTION implies a definite end or purpose that the one in question serves or a particular
kind of work it is intended to perform <the function of language is
two-fold: to communicate emotion and to give information -- Aldous Huxley>.
OFFICE is typically applied to the function or service expected of a person by
reason of his trade or profession or his special relationship to others
<they exercise the offices of the judge, the priest, the counsellor -- W.
Functional Organization is the sliver of
science that logically answers the why question, then in the interest of
validity reverses direction to answer the how (the way) question. How-Why
Diagrams and Precedence Network Databases are tools of Functional Organization.
In short, Harv’s why answer for his life as an organization aims at joy,
love, and freedom. As has been the case throughout his life, he seeks to
integrate the functionality of “homing”.
Home: verb Inflected Form(s): homed; HOMING Intransitive senses 1: to go or return home, 2 of an animal: to return accurately to one's home or natal area from a distance 3: to proceed to or toward a source of radiated energy used as a guide <missiles home in on radar> 4: to proceed or direct attention toward an objective <science is homing in on the mysterious human process -- Sam Glucksberg> Transitive senses: to send to or provide with a home.
Using what Harv describes as the fifteenth
re-creation of his life time, Harv notes that the “proceeding to or
toward a source” was the same as he as a toddler or he as he is
sixty-five years later - that life process is managing his life
‘well’. The proof of Harv’s wellness being non hypertensive,
that is, being tensive without having excess weight and high blood pressure.
Can Harv become ‘hyper’ prioritized so as to be tensive without
hypertension?
TENSIVE: adjective: of, relating to, or causing tension.
TENSION: noun 1a: the act or action of stretching or the condition or degree of being stretched to stiffness [not flexible]: TAUTNESS b: STRESS 2a: either of two balancing forces causing or tending to cause extension b: the stress resulting from the elongation of an elastic body 3a: inner striving, unrest, or imbalance often with physiological indication of emotion b : a state of latent hostility or opposition between individuals or groups c : a balance maintained in an artistic work between opposing forces or elements 4: a device to produce a desired tension (as in a loom) - tensional adjective - tensionless adjective.
Harv, seemingly forever, has had “inner
striving, unrest, or imbalance often with physiological indication of
emotion”. Additionally, he clearly seeks “a balance maintained in
an artistic work between opposing forces or elements”. Fence Sitting may
be just the term that signifies that balanced tension, for it may not be easy
to fence sit, but it may be the essential for Harv to continue the progression
of remaining life time.
Thus Harv ‘homes’, or practices
‘mobile homing’.
MOBILE: adjective 1: capable of moving or being moved: MOVABLE <a mobile missile launcher> 2a: changeable in appearance, mood, or purpose <mobile face> b: ADAPTABLE, VERSATILE 3: MIGRATORY 4a: characterized by the mixing of social groups b: having the opportunity for or undergoing a shift in status [ballroom dance and conversation leads] within the hierarchical social levels of a society [defined Orlando dance scene Nov 2004] <socially mobile workers> 5: marked by the use of vehicles for transportation <mobile warfare> 6: of or relating to a mobile - mobility noun.
Harv has proven to be “capable of
moving”, “adaptable”, “versatile”, and
“characterized by the mixing of social groups”. The Mobile Homing
phase of Harv’s life time (re-creation 15) will be “marked by the
use of vehicles for transportation”, even more emphatically than in his
previous life phases – local car travel, national car travel, bicycling
within minutes, inline skating within several more minutes, and hiking within
still more minutes. Harv will tryout the practicality of GPS for this life
phase.
At his conception, Harv was a mistake. The
mistake was not corrected because of the fear of religious retribution - mortal
sin, et al. Days before Harv's birth a wedding provided him with two parents of
record. Mother and sister-in-law were close and father was deferred from World
War II for truck driving. Despite the war, Harv's life began happily, and to
his benefit he was provided with developmental alone time. As a toddler and
then as a child, Harv was brought up to be alone - an essential that vitally
contributed to the persona of Happy Harv.
ALONE: adjective 1: separated from others: ISOLATED 2: exclusive of anyone or anything else: ONLY 3a: considered without reference to any other <the children alone would eat that much> b: INCOMPARABLE, UNIQUE <alone among their contemporaries in this respect> - aloneness noun. Synonyms ALONE, SOLITARY, LONELY, LONESOME, LONE, FORLORN, DESOLATE mean isolated from others. ALONE stresses the objective fact of being by oneself with slighter notion of emotional involvement than most of the remaining terms <everyone needs to be alone sometimes>. SOLITARY may indicate isolation as a chosen course <glorying in the calm of her solitary life> but more often it suggests sadness and a sense of loss <left solitary by the death of his wife>. LONELY adds to SOLITARY a suggestion of longing for companionship <felt lonely and forsaken>. LONESOME heightens the suggestion of sadness and poignancy <an only child often leads a lonesome life>. LONE may replace LONELY or LONESOME but typically is as objective as ALONE <a lone robin pecking at the lawn>. FORLORN stresses dejection, woe, and listlessness at separation from one held dear <a forlorn lost child>. DESOLATE implies inconsolable grief at loss or bereavement <desolate after her brother's death>.
BRING UP
SOCILIZE
SOCIAL
MATURITY: noun 1: the quality or state of being mature; especially: full development 2: termination of the period that an obligation has to run.
Being raised cannot be considered as
childhood training - Harv's being raised was more of a personal development.
Harv was left alone to manage his life in pursuit of his basic human needs of
existence, relatedness, and growth.
Existence as an only child. Latchkey. Parochial
education - Sister of Notre Dame, Dominicans, and Jesuits - lifelong learning
was instilled. Summer farm work. Worked for spending money. Worked his way
through school.
Relatedness development was not impressed by
his kin nor his educators. A fatally flawed marriage was sanctioned by his
relatedness environment.
Growth meant job recognition - he moved on
for the challenge of social statue, monetary gain, but unsupported in family
socialness - a factor in declining promotion to a substantial Vice Presidential
position. After that, growth was titled but not substantial eroding mid-life
crisis. Harv returned to education as a job as well as for personal growth,
working on his post PhD interests intertwined with early retirement.
Loner functionality exemplifies itself from
toddler, through childhood, a bland teenage period with great sexual curiosity
- without relatedness, sex developed as masturbation. Decades of relatedness
with females always reduced to prostitution - when Harv's monetary earnings
weren't there or was threatened, the females went to greener pastures - his
loner status was developed further, moving further from the monetary earnings
of careers to the development of earning the joy, love, and freedom promised
from his study and experience in psychology through his master's degree in
Business, education administration career, doctorate dissertation of Functional
Organization, and post PhD work, including reconciliation with religious and
spiritual tenets.
Retirement progress.
Mobile Homing saga.
What Mobile Homing is not?
The following muse therefore excludes ongoing
children relationships because they have been truncated.
Orange County offers Public WiFi, St.Cloud
offers Cyber Spot, temperate weather, beaches, parks with electricity, West
Kissimmee Motel 6 as a low cost resort (pool sunning, Celebration skating,
bicycling to St. Cloud and possibly beyond), ...
Life resume includes excellence as a (1) male
companion to ladies (Harv's ideation - however, most were simply monetary
prostitutes), (2) 24/7 live-in Home Share companion with relief when relatives
visited the house, (3) sex partner - although no female ever lasted as a life
partner, (4) recover from health abuse - codependence, fatness, hypertension,
cholesterol, etc.
If nil familial relationship pulls the rug
from Home Caring then Mobile Homing may be the developed outcome -
Self respect - CLEARING (surf - web and
television, local and regional travel,
Self encouragement - HOMING, EXERCISING,
SPIFFING, ...
Self challenge - WORDING (lucid web site),
GROWING, COMPANYING (blood donation, cruise travel), ...
The above says that Harv's companying will
come through Harv's growing and preceedingly from wording. For example, this
worded analysis paralleled growing and can lead Harv to substantial companying
that is one of Harv's basic needs expressed as existence, relatedness, and
growth. The problem is that Harv's growing prerequisites Harv's companying -
not of his choice but of the others' choices. In the past exposure led to
consequential companying - McDonald's for Tom and Earl, blood donation centers
toward the six billion living of the 100 billion of the spirit of God - the
wholly spirit. However, Harv needs substantial companying (joying, loving,
freeing). Substantial companying currently does not include family thus Harv
must move to companying on the open market - blood donation centers since my
skill is O- blood type, cruise ship dancing and conversation because of his
success with non success with ladies and men - a requisite for Gentleman Host
assuming that as the best fit for his skill set.
The afore finds encouragement support from
homing for exercising for a long life and spiffing for self joy love and
challenge that also integrates with substantial companying while using
consequential companying.
The basics as clearing > resting >
healthing solidifies by wording > growing thus Harv's wholly spirit can
expand for a longer and fuller life time.
Harv listens to Tom and Earl but must move on
to more substance. Mother is not friendly thus Harv separates a 2005
