Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Hi. O/
Rise and shine, Sunshine Valentine, this show must go on.
Hope all's well.
The Sun's aglow,
Time to go,
On with our show...
...
What's new?
Certainly not The News, not yet.
It gets better, by the way.
The current news cycle, News as we know it, is not sustainable.
We simply cannot continue to feed ourselves with bad news and hope to continue as a species.
You are what you eat.
Keep eating bad news and your life becomes a safe haven for everything awful.
All the confusion, bitterness, manipulations, sleights of hands, placed in front of us everyday have to die or we will.
It's how the math adds up.
Not doomsday rhetoric, common sense.
If all you're eating are images and words of hate and Hell, you're either a decent person and exhausted having to retranslate them into something good, or you take what's fed you as real and become a monster yourself.
Life is still a good place.
There's still Beauty here, still Good.
Life is absolutely fair; people often aren't.
Because we're out of sync.
Because we try to get into sync, get to know each other, through doctored images and words of what's worst about us.
What we focus on we get more of.
What we value is where we spend our time and money.
Do we really value all this crime?
This Hate?
This 'rile up the masses and call it crowd control?'
We're so much better than we're showing ourselves.
The Internet is the cure and the bane.
Want to help heal the World?
Talk to each other.
A mother is a mother the whole world over.
A friend is a friend regardless their language or home address.
Friendship, love, and decency have no borders.
Governments and trade deals do.
Talk to each other.
Show each other how similar we are.
The food, the music, the customs are different; the people aren't.
In my Country right now, we're spending billions to round up people who value our way of life and throw them out of our house.
Seems it makes more humanitarian and economic sense to teach those 'aliens' what it means to live here, what the expectations are, and make citizens of them.
"But they'll take our jobs."
- Reader Misled by Well-paid Media
You're feasting on lies if you believe that.
There's plenty of work to go around.
If you can't 'find work,' make your own job, call it a small business, and live The American Dream.
Remember that?
If we don't start changing our focus The American Dream will soon become a nightmare.
We need to talk values America.
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness if your HMO will keep you healthy enough to live it, is no Dream worth living for.
It's time for Good People to speak up.
A single post of Hope, of something good in your world everyday will bring the attitude adjustment we need...
Will keep this Dream from becoming a Nightmare.
Take care, share some good news, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Welcome back. O/
At it again.
Cloudy, cool, the steady stream of the morning traffic commute from the freeway.
Hope all's well.
On with our show...
...
There's something new.
It deserves a question mark or a hopeful exclamation.
Is it that thing you've been waiting for so long you forgot you were waiting for?
You ordered something wonderful online, the most wonderful thing!
The shipping time on it was: Takes as long as it takes to arrive.
The cost?
Your time.
It's your dream, any and every dream you have.
You invest in it.
As long as you commit, it has to show up eventually.
The only way to ever lose is to stop.
Start to work on your best loved dream and keep it going.
Sounds like a life plan to me.
Find the dreams that inspire you best and commit to them.
Once you dedicate yourself to a dream Life helps you out.
"Dream on, this dream is on!"
- Reader with the Right Idea
It's not a secret; achievers know.
The World assists dedicated dreamers.
It's how The World literally, actually, really truly works.
Stay true to your dreams, take care and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Welcome back. O/
Another day, another way to say, "Good morning."
Wildfires in Canada make a different kind of cloud, a different lens to filter the sunlight.
Hope you're well.
On with our show...
...
Fire and water have something in common: They both make clouds.
There's the fluffy white rain droppers and the billowy smokey haze displayers... both clouds.
See, even fire and water have something in common, a shared experience, something to discuss, a reason for friendship.
Smoke for a forecast seems a good time to talk about the weather.
Reverse engineer the blaze, prevent another, and onto brighter days.
...
How's the day?
A Transition one, for sure, here.
Smokey skies and that feeling something new showed... a larger than usual large (and they're large by definition) elephant sauntered into the room and no one's mentioned it.
Should you say something?
Did they already discuss it?
Is this a normal occurrence?
A larger than normally large elephant sauntering into the room?
Is this normal?
Perhaps it's just what happens on Tuesdays.
That must be it... you're new here.
Remember: Larger than large elephant sauntering into the room without mention is Tuesday's business as usual.
It's eating everyone's lunch.
Maybe it's National Feed a Hungry Stealthy Sauntering Elephant Day?
You didn't get the memo.
You seldom do.
Guess the office will skip lunch for the sake of the obviously acceptable elephant eating everyone's lunch.
Oh...
Now it's knocking over the fridge with its trunk.
Isn't anyone going to say something?
There goes the office food supply.
Hey. O/
The World's on fire.
Thought you should know, thought you did.
Take care, state the obvious, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
How's the day? O/
Spectacular rainbow sunshine supreme?
We can dream.
Sun's up, a cool bedsheet covered sky.
Hope all's well.
On with our show...
...
Practical business thoughts the past few mornings.
"Write 'em down, Wynn. It's still your morning journal. Others think similar thoughts at times. It helps not to feel alone."
- Voice Great Within Poets Always Mention
Wonder Fell is now over five hundred posts large.
No worries, I'm not stopping.
It's habit and there's 'Epic' in front of this poet's job title.
An update to the navigation system on the site is called for.
You can, Dear Reader, always read the posts chronologically... though with over five hundred entries that's a bit daunting.
Tags and pages and hyperlinks galore!
There are themes to my dreams, Wonder Fell Ways and topics addressed... to you... for you.
There are also questions on set up and display of some other work I have for you.
Epically Epic Stuff.
Programmers, computer geeks, those who at times tragically think they lack creativity; here's some truth for you: Setting up a webpage is no different than setting up a poem.
There's content and then there's the presentation of the content.
Every poem is a web page.
Allusions to poems gone-by, to Greek Myths, to Religious experiences... any reference to any established metaphor is an invisibly underlined hyperlink to that metaphor's powerful historical definitive experience.
...
There's a book titled 'How to...' for just about everything these days.
There's at least a YouTube video to show you how.
Our metaphorical hearts have a way, and though there's no YouTube post to map it out, there is poetry, there is story, there is myth.
There are screenwriter formulas to writing a successful movie script.
There are plot point beats to drum.
There's The Hero's Cycle and there's the Hero who writes the Cycle.
Language is magic; we call it spelling for a reason.
But my AI bot can make a story. Isn't that the same thing?"
-Reader with a Good Question
No.
There's nothing new in AI's words.
The best Artificial Intelligence can do artistically is be clever.
Clever is for Science.
Art is Spirit.
Art is Life... Alive!
It's +he Ghos+ Point.
If you've read me much, you know me much.
How'd you do that?
"Well there's that Social Media account where you discuss... wait. Where are your social media accounts? We'd love to talk to you? How can we reach you Mr. Wonder Fell Sunshine?"
- Wonderful Wonder Fell Readers
Who's this you that you wish to speak to?
How do you know me already?
What is it about my words, what's in here that shows me to you?
Boo. O/
The whole reason for the Internet, for AI, and I believe Life itself, is to share whatever this Ghost quality that makes me for you with just words.
We roll our empirical eyes when we call it soul.
But here it is. O/
Over five hundred posts with my heart and thoughts exposed so you can see the power of Spirit.
So you have a reference point of understanding the next time you hear the word soul.
Your understanding of me, through just reading me, is your relationship with my spirit.
I'm glad you're here.
I get corporeal real real soon.
A social media account or two.
I look forward to talking with you.
Take care, thank you for reading, consider your spirit, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Made it. O/
Tomorrow showed while you were sleeping, changed its name to Today, and let in the sunshine.
You snooze you lose Tomorrow, but gain Today.
¡Ole!
Hope all's well.
On with our show...
...
Something in the air today, some kind of feel... cool potential.
Did you know everything's okay?
It may not be exactly what you want, but everything is okay.
Okay enough for you to have space enough to recognize it could be better.
We like better.
Better is always a possibility.
Something to work for: "Let's make this better."
Something to recognize and enjoy: "See, now this is better!"
Want to learn about yourself?
Ask: "How can I make this better?"
The answer tells you what you value.
Better is a question of values.
See, you do have a moral code after all.
It's in your memory storage folder labeled: Better.
...
How's the weather where you are?
A lot of entries lately regarding climate change.
AI can help with that.
We're standing at the threshold of An Age of Automation.
Machines will soon do our heavy-lifting better than we ever have.
Operating farm equipment will look more like playing a video game soon enough.
So many of our labor intensive jobs will.
This is a good thing.
We're not losing tons of jobs; we're recreating our economy.
We're freeing up our hands to work in other areas.
There is always a way to make every neighborhood, every relationship, better.
We'll simply refocus our priorities to grow our environments to raise our quality of life.
Nine to five living is dead.
Good.
We evolved.
Let's make sure we take care of each other to keep the transition to a new way of life enjoyable to all.
Younger generations work the job, not the clock.
Our new economy trends that way.
It's an evolved way of running a society.
Made possible by easy Internet access and communication.
It will take some time to institute, but nine to five living is dead.
There's always plenty we can do to serve life positively.
Always plenty of good work to be had.
It's an exciting time to be alive.
Technology advancements open doors to so many new opportunities for cultural growth.
For a Better World.
Take care, find better, do better, be better, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

A Very Big Win for Humanity

Saturday, August 02, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Back. O/
Sun's coming up.
The gold rimmed white sky starts to remember it's blue.
A couple birds cheep. Maybe a sparrow. Perhaps a robin.
A soft breeze nudges full green oak leaves on their strong branches awake.
Hope you're well today.
On with our show...
...
Good Day Sunshine. You know it. Time to glow it.
Good dreams.. and uppity Ghos+ is back on the scene.
Hope your dreams treat you well. Hope you follow them.
Thoughts on Wonder Fell itself lately.
Because of the nature of the writing, its direction, and my voice; it's more than just a journal.
Epic Poem works.
A poet's business is getting the words right, and Wonderfell is an Epic Poem for The Sunrise.
If you're new here, there's even a section for more classically considered poems.
...
Getting AI to make images is a joy. I make the process quick.
It could be easy to get caught up in the playing a video game feel of the exercise.
A couple of relevant nouns, a verb they're engaged in, time of the light, and an artistic style(s), and Enter.
The software is still in its infancy. All AI is growing up fast.
At times there are obvious misunderstandings from the translation.
For example, any and all syntax from letters... to words...to punctuation.
AI has a tough time making images words; it's like it's trying to bite its own teeth.
"You can't chew those; you chew with those."
- AI in an Existential Crisis
Ideally they ought to feed off each other.
One bot makes perfect replica 'teeth' for the other to chew.
"Here are the proper letters AI friend, arrange only these as images, don't search. Just use these."
- AI bot friend of an AI bot.
Many hands, and AI servers, make light (binary or otherwise) work.
Ghos+ Geek thoughts.
Though at some point programmers will see that they've made the AI understand definitions of words so well... now what's needed to get the most from the software are people who use language best.
O/
Poet's Poetical Pay Raises, OTW.
Finally some Scientific respect.
And a very big win for humanity.
Thank you for reading, enjoy your work, enjoy the sunrise, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

The New Blue
2025.08.01
Friday, August 01, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Early... still July in California.
How are you? O/
Hope all's well.
On with our show...
...
Time zones.
Time is a much more practically interesting thing in an Internet Age.
If you were reading this live from the West Coast, USA as I wrote it, I'd be writing to you from tomorrow.
A different day, a different month.
It's numbers; it's math.
We require language more than numerics to best express our experience.
There we are.
Here we are.
Happy tomorrow. Welcome to today West Coast!
If you're from California, no wonder you're always late... you're so punctual.
New York's children are in the cafeteria having lunch when California's kids are just getting on the bus.
Blame it on the sunrise, on the arc of the sphere.
That's an interesting topic for a Doctoral Thesis: The Real World Effects of Time Zone Differences in The Modern Age.
Go for it, soon to be Doctor.
...
Now we're all here, what's new?
Tsunami got your mommy?
Volcano spoil your lawn?
Flood drown your hopes?
Hurricane blow your dreams away?
How's your recycling campaign?
More trash in the blue bin than the green?
The winds of change showed up.
No one but Dorothy and Toto expected they'd be tornadoes, though.
Unless you go for that whole 'End of Days' theory.
But, as we just finally got California into the same day as us, we're back to just one day... so it is truly the End of Day(s).
Literally.
We could blame The West Coast's tardiness on their predilection for wildfires, but we know it's the angle of the Sun's fault.
Speaking of faults, let's not forget earthquakes.
Nature is really shaking things up, lately.
Did you know the Ocean is a whole new shade of blue?
Really.
Ask your AI bot buddy.
They'll fill you in.
If you're asked, "What's new?"...
"The Ocean's Blue," is probably one of the best answers.
Why's the Ocean a different color?
Because something changed on a 'It's such a big deal, it changes the color of the whole ocean' level.
But paparazzi say she, you know her, had a bad hair day.
It's probably the fault of the New Blue water.
Only so much a new designer shampoo can do if the whole world decides to change the nature of the tides.
But no worries, AI can comb her hair.
"Where's the uppity positive Ghos+, Wynn?"
-Dedicated Reader
Waiting on the sunrise...
It's here.
It's an entry on priorities and time.
There's looking good and there's dodging volcanoes.
There's hair dryers and there's hurricanes.
There's a comfortable bathtub and there's another flood in Texas.
And it's not your problem.
And there's 'yet'.
Let's get together, clean up our acts to clean up our house, make sure our outfits don't clash with the new ocean blue, and make wonderful this wonderful day.
