Another good reason not to go alone into the Coastal Wetlands
And not to get out of your car
Allowing our intrinsic intuition to guide us
is to step outside the authoritative framework
of our thinking brain
and its ideas of what is in our best interest,
and to remain inside the body/soul network
and its deep sense of our calling and orientation.
The thinking brain is late on the scene
of evolutionary development.
The Old Brain is used to gathering information
of a different sort
from the sensory organs of the body/soul
and applying that to the threats and choices
coming to us through our experience
in the external world.
How our two brains read the world
and apply that to leading us along the way
presents us with a choice to make
regarding which guide to follow when.
Our intuition is a Right Brain function.
Our rational/logical/reasoning process
is a Left Brain function.
The two brains have different ways of
considering what is in our best interest,
and we have to decide for ourselves
in light of what do we live.
What is best for us in terms of our
body/soul connection,
may not at all be what is best for us
in terms of our early retirement
and bottom line concerns.
We have to manage our own conflicts of interest
and decide which side we are on
in choosing who is to guide our boat
on it's path through the sea,
in light of the destination we have in mind.

But.
What makes us think it is worth having?
Right brain and left brain have different ideas
about what is worth our time and effort.
What do we say matters most?
Everything rides on our decision here.
And we are all on our own with this one.
