Who is The Father of Silicon Valley?
Dave Muffly... tell me about the way Silicon Valley used to be. Before the money. And which Zip Code you lived in, so your kid could go to the better Palo Alto school...
Tell me about the look of the place, before the companies moved in. The highways expanded...
When I first got to Cupertino, Apple hooked me up with an apartment and a car. I have no idea where the car came from to be honest. But there was so much Abundance you just had to be nearby, and the overflowing cup would naturally find its way onto you...
Driving through town to get to work, and many days biking, I was surrounded by lush trees, and never-ending concrete. The place it seems was made for quiet tech work, deep in thought, nobody seemed to notice there was a rich soil here, and a powerful energy from the mild climate, that led to incredible Natural abundance as well...
Except of course the people who lived there before the Tech Boom. One man did know, he who himself was a major cause of the expansive concrete, Steve Jobs. He knew that the area was filled with Orchards before Tech Offices.
One day, on my walk around Apple Park, I met a man also gazing up at the trees. I introduced myself, and he told me his story, of meeting Steve Jobs, being 'Hand Chosen' to revitalize the land, and create a Park reminiscent of Steve's dream of old Silicon Valley, filled with Orchards....
The irony of it all, is that a child grew up in Silicon Valley, where there was an abundance of nature and trees, worked in Technology, brought on even more big offices and structures, made all the money in the world, to be able to buy up the concrete, and turn it back into the nature he already had for Free at the beginning of it all...
