FOMO means fear of missing out.

For most of my life, I have had FOMO. I don't think I had FOMO as a child, but when I became a teenager and left for college, I developed FOMO.

Right now, I am cultivating reverse FOMO - OMOF.

What is omof, and why is it important?

Every Yes is a No

Every time you say yes to something, you say no to something else, perhaps many things. A Yes is a no.

A yes means a no, and a no means a no. But a no is also a no. Saying no to something opens up space for the right yes. It is an asymmetric relationship.

A no though opens up the space of probability; a yes closes it down.

Everything is Space

Space is necessary for an event to take place. Everythig is really space, except for a black hole which is density.

Space relates to my idea of a container. For change to happen, there must be a container.

No's are the structure of the container, and the clearer of space. Yes is what goes into the container.

What do I sound like?

I meditate to hear my voice, my sound. The more I do and the more I indulge my FOMO, the less I can listen to that voice.

Missing out on something external is also tuning into something internal - connecting with what is all ready there BECAUSE ther is no missing out.

Everything that is happening right now is the thing

What am I missing out on anyway? The thing that is right for me is happening right here and now.
