    30-Day writing - Blavatsky

    When I was a child there was a book at home called "Metaphysics". It wasn't the one written by Aristoteles Aristotle, but one inspired by an assortment of ideas picked out from the New Age movement. I used to read this book and I found it pretty cool. It presented a different perspective about the world and religion, and it included some numerology too, so I had a great time working out the birth dates of everybody around. Then when I had access to the internet, for to my utter dismay, I found out that the author had committed suicide and that pretty much all of her ideology had been based on a misinterpretation of Helena Blavatsky's ideas. For the record, Helena founded the Theosophy movement that mixed esotericism, religion, occultism, spiritism spirituality and a bunch of other things. She was, without a doubt, an influencer of her time and of the times that followed her, even the Nazis based their ideology on some of her ideas.
    Nevertheless, despite the fact that the book was totally mistaken, it gave me access to new ideas and opened my mind to a new knowledge that I came to comprehend later in life. So the moral of the story is, on the one hand, don't believe in everything blindly, and on the other hand, that you can learn something valuable even from a bad source.

    The impression I get from reading the passage is this: In music a metronome will beat time, tick tick tick tick... You play the music to this beat at whatever pace the metronome is set to. So in the case of this passage his arms are acting as the metronome, and since he's running we can assume the beat is very fast, so his thoughts were also very fast, or put another way, his thoughts were racing. Hope that makes sense.

    These are mostly extremely slang terms. Are you going to come through? = Are you going to stop by? = Are you going to come over? Open it up, he means create space or open a space between his eyebrows. Hook me up means, help me or give me. Hook me up with a car = give me a car.

    In this sentence last week means the week previous to the current week we are in and the week before means the week previous to the week spent in Paris, or two weeks previous to the current week.

    Telephones And Email

    Telephones and email have improved the way we communicate with others. Therefore, I disagree with the statement that both of them have made communication between people less personal. On the contrary, I think that thanks to both tools we can have a better communication with others.

    Before the mass use of phones and emails, it was very hard to reach someone, even in most cases even impossible. Consequently, there was not any much communication. People had to send letters, which took a lot of time to arrive in at their destinations. Having to walk a some distance in order to talk to someone to and deliver a message could be something more personal than using a device,. but, it is not something efficient or helpful due to the amount of time spent doing so.

    Telephones and email make communication easier. For example, I have friends who have left my country and now live far away from me. I We often talk to them by phone or to keep in touch with each other. Even though, we do not speak face to face, we have a good communication. If telephones or email didn´t existed, we would not have any type of communication. Nowadays, we have the option to talk to others with our phones by using video chat. This gives us the impression of speaking face to face.

    Using email is another good way to communicate with others. At work, many people prefer to send an email. This is due to the fact that there are not any less chances that the receiver of the message will misunderstands the content of the message, since there is a physical evidence of it the content of the message. All in all, it is my opinion that telephones and email have highly improved the way that we communicate with our friends, co-workers, or and relatives.

    Pitch is throwing something out, away from yourself, and reel is bringing something back in. Totter and sway seem to be rather similar. Do you have more context? Do you have sentences where you have seen these words? Some words, like totter, aren't very commonly used so it's easier to explain in context.
