Brie rules in so many ways I can't even count them! She is such a wonderful and yummy friend. SUper snuggley, super great at listening and calling it how it is...super fun to dance with...to be silly with, to be real with.
Yup. She's my girl. Well, in that non-romantic way. ;)
BRIIIEEEEEEEEE!

Just as
a seed
is a pump –
The structure of the seed such,
that it pumps gasses and water,
warmth and light
through itself
in harmony with its inner patterns…
the structures swirl out solid particles
and they choose to succumb
and settle,
fragile,
in the very fine pattern,
ever stronger, building itself,
extending outward…
the pattern of roots,
the pattern of reaching and meeting
‘self-not-yet-self’
…The plant grows,
the tree grows,
the flowers, the frui...

The other day, I was considering how I wish for the world to be aware of itself, aware of its joy, of its power, and its ability to laugh at itself and facilitate its own blossoming power with the confidence and trust of vulnerability itself. I wished for the world to be enlightened! Affirmations like: “humanity is already enlightened” are hard for me. So I wished for myself the ability to do my part in the shifting of my own consciousness. I playfully considered what the result could be ...

children just try on the mask that they see us wearing, longing to be seen through it, and yet longing to wear what we're wearing to feel like one of us... they hold that mask up over their non-existent face so accurately, we actually believe they are becoming it/us/just like us/or no... not me... different.
children are mirrors - mirrors that are so clean, we hardly recognize ourselves.

Note about the first sentence: when I typed this, I was trying to elicit my motivation to write a resume (and it worked) and empower the motivated part in harmony with the hesitation, by accepting the resistance (paragraph 2) NOT by empowering one part over another.
There is a chance, however remote, that what I am about to write will get me a job I want. A job I really, really want. A job where kids and I co-create an environment of love and flow, of pushing the edge and feeling what’...

I want my mommy - (you're not doing the trick, lady) - I don't want to be here - (you can't make me feel good) (I'm afraid that nothing can)
Tuesday there was a little boy who didn’t want to get in line to go inside after playtime. It wasn't that he wanted to keep playing, it's just that this getting in line made it clearer to himself that he was feeling something that didn't fit. His feelings became more important to me than my job of getting him inside.
I asked him questions,...

about me
inner history:
as a perpetual foreigner and a comfortably open human being, when i was sick of constantly being asked to explain what i am, and why i am one way or another, and where I got my ideas, i became aware that i was none of the things words could convey: I am
when at age 10 i wanted religious paradigms that worked, i distilled the essence of my catholicism to a less complex, and, for me, more functional Consciousness/Holy Spirit/SelflessEnthusiasm, to find my actions being carried (out) by Christ when reflective quick-'prayer' allowed me to define the False notion (from ego/overthinking/analysis) to lovingly set aside
compassionately feeling the suffering of others over even my own for a while, i was in so much suffering, that i learned that pain withOUT suffering is the only way out
during adolescence, when i was taught not to trust myself to be a constant, i put one certain role model on a pedestal; i made an image of her being an inextricable piece of my identity, and she made an utterly unchanging identity for me; that was painful to grow out of, and a Great Teaching
having witnessed infinite teachings to which i became more and more present, in my 20’s now, i feel that acceptance is everywhere except where i sought it – it is within me!
thriving and experiencing liberation in Teachings where master and student are inter-exchangeable names, and i am/we are One with the realization of the Teaching, the Bliss is addictive and it’s hard to believe I already know all i need to know to do right right NOW
when, in disbelief, leaping to different ‘points’ of view, enthusiastically displaying the uselessness of consequence-based reasoning, my behavior tires many who wish for me to save them/myself and conclude something based on choosing one way of reasoning over the others; however, i find it pleases me, playful as i am (if i stop in time) to describe my own Awakening: death to the Infallibility of reasoning
this bubbly behavior, or: transparent reflection, energizes those ready to Celebrate themselves and need to ride my train of thought to see how futile thought is, and how we all think it’s fascinating, but that there is always another side to a story, and we can think forever and forget to Be
when not standing at any point of view, i enjoy the Vibe that past and future movements leave in my body and listen to the tones, for harmony or disharmony with the silence and the world around me
Silent Practice is my Greatest Teacher- pure pleasure and intention; even before the amazing world of human Connection, must come Authenticity
