This is the parent page for posts during the second quarter of 2022. Hope you are glad to be here! Seeing happens in its own time, in its own way, if we stay out of the way and allow things to unfold according to their own accord– just waiting, just watching, for the mud toContinue reading “2022-B”

01 Would it be easier for Russia to admit defeat, or to launch a nuclear strike against Ukraine? The is the ultimate damned-if-you-do-and-damned-if-you-don’t situation. “Do you want to die this way? Or do you want to die that way?” With a psychopath at the controls, he won’t ask the question. He will simply push theContinue reading “April 14, 2022”

01 It comes down to perspective. It is all about perspective. It is perspective all the way down. How we look at what we see determines everything that follows. We cannot change what we are doing until we change how we see– how we look at, how we think about– what we see when weContinue reading “April 08, 2022”

01 We do not out-live traumatic experiences. Flashbacks come without warning, and a fifty-year-old experience, or collection of experiences, is right here, right now. And so, the process of waiting it out. Sometimes the practice of emptying myself of all reactions to the events eases things after a while. And sometimes something startling, like theContinue reading “March 28, 2022”

01 I don’t know what keeps you going, as for me, I can’t wait to see what happens and what I do about it. The Mystery is abundant. It unfolds in all directions every day. Something drops out of the sky several times a day. I wonder what will be next! I’m thinking new thoughts,Continue reading “March 26, 2022”

01 When we are transparent to ourselves, we are also transparent to transcendence. And it is apparent to everyone. No kidding. There is nothing to it. And we get nothing out of it. Except the joy of being transparent to ourselves, and being just fine with who we are. –0– 02 We have no rightContinue reading “March 25, 2022”

01 We only have the moment to work with. This moment, here and now. What needs to be done here, now? Do it the way it needs to be done, with nothing but our original natures and the virtues that came with us from the womb to work with. Doing that, we make miracles happenContinue reading “March 16, 2022”

01 We aren’t here to get anything out of it, to have something to show for it. We are here to bring the best we have to offer to bear on the context and circumstances of our life. What we can enjoy while doing it is entirely up to us. And there is a lotContinue reading “March 08, 2022”

01 Some problems have no solutions. There is no happily ever after as a steady state of being. There are no steady states of being. Which means sadness and sorrow are not everlasting. It is all coming and going, ebb and flow, rise and fall… And we learn to let come what’s coming and letContinue reading “March 07, 2022”

01 A gyroscope lives from its center. A thermostat regulates the temperature. A human balances the contradictions at work in their life, maintaining harmony, sustaining the flow. Equanimity. Homeostasis. Equilibrium. Stabilize the forces at work in the moment, and provide an environment that is conducive to life and the true good of all concerned. WeContinue reading “March 01, 2022”

This is a page holder for the pages that will be published during the month of March, 2022. We have rituals throughout each day that establish a particular sequential arrangement of acts and mechanisms to order and structure our time. There are rituals and instruments that we use to transition from sleeping to dressing toContinue reading “March, 2022”

01 We find our rhythm, our balance and our stride, and step into each situation as it arises, see what’s what and what needs to be done about it and do what can be done with the gifts we bring to the moment, and let that be that. Reading the moment and responding to itContinue reading “February 16, 2022”
