Power restored

Alignment I feel like an old man as I watch the electrical company fix the knocked over electrical pole this morning. I quietly observed them from the woods with my dog for a few minutes before continuing on our walk. I’m optimistic that the power will be fixed by tonight…

Now is the only moment

While I can, I intend on fully being in it While laying in bed, I felt hope rise within me that the power would be back on, when I was told that it should, today. I recognized that it may come back on or it may not. …

From nothing

Came everything I wake up with no power but am grateful that I am here. That I can turn the heater on and warm me and my doggo up this morning. That I have warm and cold water to shower with. I felt moved to go to a local coffee…

Perfectly timed power outage

All works out in the end I drifted off to sleep smiling last night. My heart was open and full of gratitude. I awoke after 7–8 hrs of sleep and felt a blockage in my heart. I believe this blockage coincided with the events of the dream that I was…

Release & Receive

Recording today’s now My intention while practicing yoga earlier today was to release. As a snake sheds it skin, I too shed layers that I have outgrown. Writing this frequently as of late, has helped me in more ways than one. Mostly to remind myself that in a system built…

Rain drops

The grace of pain I take “The archetypes and the collective unconscious” by C.G Jung, with me as I slip out of the door this Sunday morning, like I used to take my bible with me to church. On the way to Oakland, I read the Encyclopedia of World Problems…

The American Scheme

Advocating for change, now I hesitate to sign my lease. Maybe I should give my dog to a family member, or someone who will love her, and move to a monastery. Is that running away? I hesitate because I’ve had experiences that I can only describe as stepping outside of…

Soaking it in

all of it The sun watches me as I watch, not too far from me, a lady eat what I assume is her dinner, in her car, while watching the sun. I remember when I used to drive to spots in Atlanta to eat takeout in my car. Such a…

Crashing waves

Touching a wave & the ocean As I write this nowism, I am also sitting by the river of this mind. Thought after thought passes by. Am I identified with them if I instinctually use I when addressing them? Am I subconsciously identified with an archetype or identification with or…

Crafting Equality

in 5 steps — I can’t say objectively or subjectively that we live in an equal world in 2023. I just don’t see any evidence that supports this. Equality is an aggregate of such a broad spectrum of topics. Many of which are interconnected in more ways than one. You can’t talk about racism…
