Far and away… difference is the central theme… to surround myself with sameness would not an interesting day be…I suspect it is more comforting to have a lot of the same… a lot of what we are familiar with to fall back upon… the purpose then becomes lost in the familiar… what is shared is a knowledge that we all possess… an affirmation more then anything else…
The way for us is the one we are most comforted upon… knowing… is knowledge transferred… how we relate to it and use what we have acquired speaks to our heart… I am unsure how I would take such information… real or knot… the words of the passed on are not as valid to me as the words of the present… the words that can help me in this day… to me the unresolved issues should stay that way until we meet again… and then we can work it all out when we are both on the same level… so to speak…
The circle grows smaller… an ever increasing decrease of choices… I reach out to push the possibilities wider… connect to a number… few liken the response… even less stay beyond a moment or two… I have passed on the opportunity… my words will find a way to get me there… to free my soul… freedom being the choice I have taken… the plan is to roam the shore for possibilities… not so much to bather in… rather to be bathed in…
A trip of the imagination is sought after… trip me… so that I may live…
Angels exist… they rest upon our shoulders… guardians for our souls… open your mind to their voice and befriend them… talk to them in your mind and listen for the gentle sound of their voice… at times we feel their tug… their hand upon our shoulder to push or prod us in a direction… often some thing just misses us… or we avoid a situation… or fall upon an opportunity that fits us perfectly… when we listen we hear them… our guardians never sleep… nr do they rest as we do… they stand over us and watch us with true patience… the voice of reason… of peace… of balance that directs us to our way… they are our spiritual comfort… directing us to the spirit that dwells within us… they share the knowledge of the divine and how we should follow it best within the frame work of our life… grasp hold off this wealth of knowledge and listen to their soft and grace filled tones…
Humor is the skew you place on the day… humor is the language others use in ambiguous form… humor is the tendency for others to appear as one thing when actually they are completely another… the language of humor is every day language… the joy of each day can be found in allowing the humor of life to strike you…let the language and expressions of each one you meet open as many avenues of thought within your mind… sea knot only the massage they intend… butt all the other possibilities the words can generate with inn your mine…
The ambiguous nature of language allows for a multitude of possibilities… our sense can be tuned to pick up the talking points… the running on… the passing words that express a alternative idea… that generation of humor within us such that as we listen and hear the language of the every day we can be tuned to the ever increasing opportunities to smile and let the humor strike us… openly to laughter… openly to enjoy the time we have… share the skewed possibilities with others… as they are coming around to your sense of humor related to life they themselves will sea the letters form the words in mine… and suddenly what seemed so real… becomes an exercise in endless possibilities to smile… to laugh… to encourage the smiles of others…let the humor of life strike you… stoke your mind awake…and your body to jump with joy…
When ever we set out to accomplish a task… we must consider all the possibilities that can be fall such a journey… for every action there are reactions… perspectives… specific points of view that will come to our mind… as we turn our view of the word over we will fall upon a view that is short sighted… in other words the view fails to grasp the end result… in preparation for an adventure in learning or exercise in creativity… it is important to find this point… for it allows for us to be prepared for the perspective… As foreign as it seems to us… as shallow or as far fetched as it appears… it exists… just because we can see the result of our journey… of the way we are traveling does not mean that others can… that others are willing to open their minds to such an adventure within themselves… we must allow for their short sightedness… we must compensate for their inability to see beyond the limits they believe exist… this view allows us to see the limits and possibly to move them… to alter their avenue or path of sight… so that they may see… the fact that we allow for it is often the opening of the door within them… an acceptance of their point of view… for even in disagreement we can agree to see life differently… and some times that simple agreement bridges a gap… breaks a wall… opens a door… allow for another’s shortsightedness and you will move effortlessly from one adventure to another…
Listen… turn off the internal sounds and listen… without question listening is an art form to be sought after…hear what the person is saying… without filtering in what you believe of desire them to say… listen to their words… their language of movement… their body of words as they form… learn to be a great listener… seeing the hidden meaning in the language that is spoken… lend your ear silently to the one speaking… lend your ear to those around you that feel a desire… a passion to speak what is in their hearts… remain silent in mind as they speak… remain curious in focus as they unfold their tapestry of language before you… listen to every word as it is crafted… surrounded… put forth into the air of sound… sight and sense of touch… allow the words to touch you… listen to the tones they set… the ringing of each note… as it is orchestrated in their speak… learn the lesson of listening… of hearing what is said… what is in the heart of the speaker…
Each thought is a single run on sentence of mind activity… later on I may wander back over and expand on the process… typically I leave it as is… for in the rambling nature of the art is an allowance for others to add to the open ends… to complete the uncompleted thought… to color the image they create differently… the running on of the words allows me to let my mind go off on endless tangents and skews… to pierce the fabric… rip and tear… toss the letters about and settle on new images that are created… how it happens… matters less then the fact that it does…
As dawn rises… as the sun sets… the time we have is limited… by each moment we have lived… our place is a balance of use of the limited supplies the earth can grant us… from her we are enriched and supplied with shelter… food and clothing… her beauty surrounds us… nurtures us and inspires us to be who we are… the balance is to defend the process that nature uses… to hold sacred the cycles of life… the inhabitants we share the world with… the earth does not defend itself against our greed… our passion for destruction in the name of technological advancement… the earth in time heals itself… recovers… moves on… we are the borrowers of the earth… we are responsible for its shape and ability to support the future generations that are to come after us… we are the stewards of the land… the sea and the air that we use to live… balance what you do in these regards… for the earth will long survive our passing… to the dust we once were…
The moment of thought must be captured in that instant or it is lost to the four winds… left scattered in an instant of indecision… what is there is there for a second before it is gone… moved over… so that another thought can take its place… the capturing of ideas is as creative a journey as the use of these ideas… each thing we have in our lives is a concept or idea created by some one… contributed to by others… encouraged by others… built upon by others… until the contribution of many produced the perfect image of the original idea… a single captured thought produces magical results… in the open creative mind…
Life is for adventuring out… for mingling in amongst the other fellow travelers… easy it is at times to shelter ourselves from the storm and chaos of life by settling in two a routine… to nestle ourselves comfortably on the side lines… as spectator… venture forth among the others… that inhabit your space and time… listen to their songs… sing them… let the feeling of the words settle inside you… share your expressions of joy… peace… happiness with each soul you touch… each soul that touches upon you… walk out in the sun… delight in the light of the day… venture forth in the darkness of night… holding the light of your inspiration before you to light the passage way… sample the foods of thought that others are willing to share… open your world to theirs… become engaged in the words they use… the language of their art… the passion of their cultures… the music that moves them to tears of pure joy… venture out to the far stretches of your imagination… return home singing… your soul filled with new expressions inspired by the people you have met along your way…
To judge is to put forth your life to be judged… your actions to be placed before the same court of judgment as you place another’s… in a religious sense we have guideline… in the sense of the real world we have a need to consider the possibilities and decide what we shall do with our lives… we must decide and in a way judge what we will do… we can judge for ourselves what is correct and appropriate… and as a society we must have laws… outside of those… we must allow others to live in a way that best allows them the expression of their true selves… their clothes… their music… their culture… religions… these are not areas for us to pas judgment on other then to decide for ourselves… our way… our need… judge not less I be judged…
Enough of the script to follow the words inspired in action of my reading of another time and place and expressed as a desire to place words in some semblance of an idea…curious I am as to the endless circles one can create in mind as well as soul… in the hopes of reaching the end… some end… logical or knot… the best of who we are is often lost in the chaos of the situation we are witness to… enough for now… there is work to be done… so it goes…
