Ep 20 Musings w/Mookie

I’m not sure if there was an episode of Peter Pan battling potatoes. These potatoes were formed in my imagination. They were created to give shape to the monsters of mathematical proportions - whatever that means. I never thought to actually quell these monsters I created to dance freely in my head to give form to my angst of solving literal math problems. I though maybe give them an outlet in my head would somehow appease my angst. The angst of mentally solving how the ramp speed on a interstate was determined. Or how detectives determined you speed by the skid marks on the road from your stopping distance. The random moments of solving functions. I mention Peter Pan because some of the best and simplest solutions are childlike as my daughter pointed out to me. That any dilemma that I create, I can defeat. The solution was given to me and at first I didn’t understand. She heard my frustration with the dancing potatoes in my head and she provided me a solution to what appeared to be my core frustration.While it wasn’t my core frustration it was one I could solve myself, in turn quelling the angst that rose from it. First deal with the monsters that you created in your head to give you room to handle everything else.Mookie Toujour💜 This is a public episode.
