Rob, The segment “ Who we are” just grabbed me by my rebellious existential inner raging resistance towards what appears to be the fixed path of destruction we seem to be on.
What a breakthrough to be reminded that I can be a militant dissident warrior in the ranks of the resistance and fill the darkness with powerful energy that rises above fixed limited solutions … I am writing a piece right now loosely called “ Well , I guess I’m a dissident for real now “ .
Your words offer me so much perspective this morning I’m in tears. I have been desperately searching for ways to embrace this synergy, this amalgamation….. of merging fight and light . Thank you
God is for Real - If you want it to be! Leap of faith is well worth taking! Love You Man! I am one of the growing number of folks in the USA mixing and matching beliefs as you say. Jesus rules my heart and soul, Buddha and Lao Tzu my mind and a sprinkle of many other sources of wisdom from around the world throughout history make up my spiritual/secular view. Frank McCourt, retired NYC teacher, Irish immigrant of humble roots and author of popular book/film, Angela's Ashes - once said at a college commencement speech I attended in CT many moons ago - "I treat religions like a buffet, I take what I like and leave the rest."
once I was caught in a riptide and felt concerned until intuition spoke and soon my feet were on the sandy shore. intuition seems to speak beyond human language.
Rob, this is brilliant, and so helpful: "Which of your maladies or pains might be gods in disguise? How might you get them to take off their masks and begin knocking on the front door?"
I have a lot of well-worn furniture up in my brain attic, and sometimes I stub my toe against an old dresser full of old ideas and while I hop around and rub my toe I wonder, "Wow, I need to get rid of that."
Now I have a new metaphor to use: I need to move that furniture into the sunlight and see what it would become in the front parlor. Throw open the armoire and let the light pour out of it.
Hi. I am Sagitarius and I did what you suggested.... I thought about two aspects of myself, said them out loud....and then you married them. I married my shame to my pride. Now I am scared that was too much....my goal is to love my WHOLE self......even the ick parts. What have I done?
Brilliant
