Bio
About me! OK ...Here goes!
Sometimes I get tired of all the blubber, the grinding of systems, the metal to the rubber..........Singing to the choir, pickaxe in place of feather...Look there's a bird upon the wire! From my poem Blubber.
Ok that might be vague. How's about this one from Lao Tsu;
"The truth is not always beautiful, nor beautiful words the truth"
Anais Nin grabbed my attention when she said;
"We don't see things as they are. We see things as we are"
You might be getting the picture! I'm not!
As soon as I think I got it, another whammy puts a sock in it. Every day seems to have a new angle, another perspective and another shooting ah ha! Flowery words and beautiful sentiments are ok but unless they penetrate all the way down, up and around and in, where the bullet hits the bubble, I'm not impressed. Until something something dredges my insides the jewel remains hidden. To write a poem, a song or whatever this is what has to happen for me. Otherwise why bother!
I've been known to over exaggerate or over dramatize but this too I am coming to accept as part and parcel of me....Me the ego, me the personality in this incarnation. I'm a Leo so that to be expected I suppose. Life has humbled me over and over. I have been pushed off the cliff a few times; Enough to have done some shadow work. Enough to have faced the black hole and my own emptiness....Not past tense of course. It's an ongoing journey and an inside job. The only thing that seems certain now is uncertainty. There are a zillion cons.....contradiction, conflict, confusion, contamination, concepts, conditioning, contraindications, constipation, contracts..........I am learning to embrace my shadow as much as I embrace my light. Resisting shadow is a slow burn! Even if the whole bang lot is just a figment of my imagination, even if it the pros do not outweigh the cons, even if I go numb in the face of a threat, still I can go on knowing that there are no mistakes. Whatever hits is for my evolution. IF it comes packaged in dirt, I probably attracted it.;
"If you realize that all things change , there is nothing you will try to hold on to. If you are not afraid of dying , there is nothing you cannot achieve" Lao Tsu
