the essential me, digitally, to summer 2011.
- my first post–about cycling, naturally
- old news–catching up
- my belief–Declaration of Interdependence
- my theology–rev. tom honey
- i’m not alone
- i remain the eternal optimist, cuz hopeless isn’t true
- warning! god/dess up ahead!–writing and the divine spark; nudge nudge; internal work n divinity within; a short story about the beginning of everything; i’ll read a stephen hawking review soon; serenity prayer–extended version–who knew? aren’t desires attachments and thus to be avoided? how does one achieve compassion for all things? otoh, vanier, in ’God and Desire’, says desire is god/dess’s way of nudging you; but desire creates restlessness, from which i can’t get no satisfaction; hardly the final word, tho…
- parenting–i was a good dad (i think); my kids are growing up; i called each of my daughters tonight; downtown; what i am
- cuz it’s all about me–recovery can take a long time but don’t give up hope; if i were to have an epitaph, these might be my famous last words: ‘this song is over, but the story never ends‘; i think i’ve opened a can of worms; i was a good programmer, cuz i was lazy? why i (used to) like cats (however, i have since learned they are invasive, avian hunters, no matter how domesticated); on becoming a vegetarian. now what?; natural selection and historians; my most important lesson, i’ve known it all along, and feel like i’m going to have to learn it over and over, that we are all part of one another; i’m finally going home, but is anyone still there? how do i really feel? what do i really really want? i’d like to teach the world to sing; otoh, i’d like to explore the essential values and core politics of deep ecology; or maybe i just need sleep; but, i remain impetuous‘; however, when all is said and done–parenting, ideals, passion, even love–this is what i’m really after and home.; there’s my german half to consider; and many other p-o-v’s; i wanna live and love and die like ek-r; it may be all about me, but i think there’s a paradigm shift going on; still, i drink coffee;
- healing? act skills; rollo may–alienation, acceptance, and authenticity; act–ch. 11–values, direction, choices–circling ’round n ’round; act–ch. 12–choosing _your_ values–getting closer to the burning flame; but what is real?
- left brain and right reunited? computers and social justice and free software and social justice–a source of both hope and frustration; still, i’m idealistic, to a fault
- if you wanted to read more, you would…
- also, there’s search and themes
- any suggestions?
