Not sure how comprehensively understood it is, but gratitude itself is the root for some of the highest health possible. The mind and the body are bound and wound :)

This is worth reading.

Magic?

When the majority thinks of "magic" we think of things great and complex.

This is in ways a fallacy of mind.
Magic actually begins and resides in the places that are small.
Mother Theresa knew stuff - she said that "your strength will be found in the little things" - this applies to pretty much everything, and we all mostly know this fact.
Then the question Is - How come it is so damn hard to DO the little things??
Where did we "get away" from our ability (and probably desire) to act for life in some ways.
We possessed the clarity at particular points, but it ebbs and flows in ways similar to a river.
The fact remains though, and Magic is indeed built from this tenent.

Google just tried to turn the word "tenent" into "tenant" - maybe this is one source of our confusion. Collective confusion so to speak. We have never been in a time where the economy was in ways constructed in a manner to do things for us. And the direction it is on intends to closely do next to everything for us as human beings.

So where the fuck you at? You exist on the pendulum like the rest of us? When might we stand for things that make us "beings" in the least - because that word "Human" continues to be pretty hard to understand for so many of us. 5 simple letters, consider what they stand for, it won't take much longer than one minute or two. And this is the kind of little thing that is worth everyone's time.

It is so vitally important right now to be cognizant of not selling out "your person."
I may be nuts, but by this I mean the instinctive, non-data, and mostly non-technology self that does exist within each and all of us. Call it the native self, the primitive self, the 90's self, point is mainly that it does not quite matter - this is the person that we still quite recognize and reaches out to us daily posing questions that nothing manufactured can quite affirm or coordinate.

If more of us can slow down, acknowledge such a presence, and confirm this sense of "loss" in some ways and discuss manners in which we will collectively act and respond! to such a truth, this is where we create a new tipping point, one of human revitalization and a likely badly needed sense of actual (and long-lasting..) gratification.

Maybe I'm wrong. Have a great day anyways --

Just a (good) thought

But above all we do as p-e-o-p-l-e, we should probably seek to be an inspiration for one another.

Hey!

On the topic of 'Simple Human' which some of us thirst for now more than ever - here are the three primary desires we share as people. If not sure, as humans we clearly crave things in 3's 4's & 5s

1) Strength
2) Love
3) Understanding

WHAT ARE YOU DRIVING TOWARDS

.....

And, if looking for small guidance on the "person" prompt, this is simple:
1. Serve Self
2. Serve Others
3. Serve the Planet

It's nobody's fault

This could also be called "Limiting Poor Outcomes"
but
When we approach conflict or even the most simple and eloquent life situations, knowing somewhere with depth that we are not really to "blame" in the context of being ever-growing people - this attitude and mentality is beneficial for everyone. It allows the residue of guilt or shame to just slide away.

Sliding away, that is a nice metaphor to think of - however one wants.

Be a Person today! :)

If we truly do believe our main intent is to serve others (more than the ego)
Can we really lose??
Think about that shit

The tough thing

about Dreams and seeking to accomplish them (we all possess to a degree) is that the pursuit takes plenty of time, patience, and an almost ridiculous form of belief in the eyes of plenty.
Get Yours

It's Tuesday

..yo, make it great.

theparadoxyetpossibilityofbeinghuman

The great thing about us (historically and presently) resides primarily above our shoulders.
The challenge with this is that we are mostly inefficient at piloting out minds - in part with the world and it's formalities that we have understandably created. But we are at a definite crossroad.
The self-understanding and modification process is where it will probably start and likely flourish.
It is not too late for us and it may very well never be. But the earlier and more intently we can get together and combine our vested efforts, the better our fruits will definitely be.
So, commit to Self. Because a Commitment to Self is the same as a Commitment to Life. U agree

And it's confusing. And if someone said it isn't or shouldn't be, that is a load of shit. So no shame.

Whevever u are

Or to whatever group, sect, creed, "race" to which you believe - know that there is Always Truth and Always Magic. ATAM, It is inherent in being human! If in disbelief, may need to ask :)

A Thought

Nobody would doubt the level of bad and terrible in a video (and videos similar to this which surf along webwaves like a surfer in Oahu) but the issue at some point seems to become the benefit of sharing such things like this. More anger? More dispute? Increased awareness? More belief in our sensationalized segregation? http://www.okayplayer.com/news/baltimore-teacher-uses-n-word-berates-black-students.html

Of course it ends up being our right and choice to click, yeah?
Kind of like wearing a seat belt, which is a strange analogy?
But the web is where anything can get floated - but it still is our mind to control...

Go America
Go all of us.

What happens to Trust?

Think about this fallacy of being human for a second.
As people, we have long acquired some sense of "joy" from having faith in the weather.
Well, what about when the weather patterns shift dramatically and become possibly unpredictable?
That is what's happening, and it is even embedded in the election jargon, results and improbability.
We all appreciate nature, and our trust in "It" has forever been connected with that within ourselves.

Soul Profound**

Regardless of where one lives or land one inhabits, the Sun intended each spirit to be bold and strengthened. At least it is my personal belief. There are plenty of limitations. BUT:

3 points can relate to this insight, let's be simple.

1. Is your soul profound?? (how come)
2. If not, what are some ways to help it become more so?
3. If there is a lack of care or desire in #2, the knowledge this "hurts" us all to a degree can have the greatest propensity to catalyze change. Think Human condition..

...Still have some faith in this man

A little bitty for today is that most of what we are able to see is dependent upon what we choose - or more importantly - care to see. Open your mind, open its life.

This is called the 2-second rule.
All it does is work (constantly) to correct our minds and focus more on what is now happening.

Strive during the course of a day to think little more than 2 seconds into the future.
This is tricky, and of course takes sustained effort and some care.
In the course of a work day/deadlines/things we are automatically projecting, this is not quite appropriate or really intended... BUT

When walking down the street or faced with some glorious "empty time" - don't stray. Observe, wander, think only presently, and results will follow in due time. More of us for all of us.

Hey America - and especially now - remember to continue taking your cues from nature!

Just a little bitty to follow - while there may be some glory in the "gaining," the more actual and possibly purposeful glory (in the eyes of the majority) happens to reside in the "re-gaining.." "Member that.

America

In addition to casting any kind of vote today - the real purpose might be take some moments to reflect and just be with the idea of what America "is" and what we would like it to stand for and become in the decade or two ahead. This is the American promise - it lies in the hands of the people, still.

Getting in Position

If we can't have everything at once, we can at minimum work on small steps to a given goal.
*A given goal is an assumptive comment that we all have one :)
In this case, getting in a position to having the opportunity to do more that we want, and a little less of what we have to do - this is a small step in a healthy direction (think Dr. Leo Marvin?).
The world keeps turnin..

In regards to Time, it's probably best (and more realistic from a longview) to be seen as a thing that exists in the sky and the stars than on even the highest selling wristwatch.

A good question for everybody would be to ask "Hey, how come I am texting so much??"
Since everyone is watching every move we make - now more than ever - and it is only going to increase unless we act accordingly - the phones that will get manufactured in 5 or so years are almost sure to have no voice-calling capabilities.


Think of that "world" - phones that don't have calling capabilities.
It's a little like Humans having no or very. very little "human" capabilities..

Is handy as it stands for Always Time, Always Purpose. Guys these are constants - definite ones.

Lawless Element - "...Something (Remix)

Counting constants

This is a good and healthy habit for any person to engage. Periodically, say once per day, count the things one would consider to be a constant or go-to or thing that helps maintain peace, sanity, well-being, etc. It could be another person we rely on or support, an ice cream cone in the evening, or a daily cup of coffee in the morning. Whatever it is, the main emphasis is on the fact that we all have at least one or even plenty of these things, and many of us can become under appreciative or leisurely dismissive of the value of such behaviors and their nurturing qualities.

These are the places for each of us - and ALL of us collectively - to begin on our journey to higher and better. Muchas gracias.

Trees & People

It's probably the best kept secret (or most under-attended piece of knowledge) on the planet, but we are not very uncommon from the trees that reside on every reach of almost every continent. This is the coolest thing about trees, huh? Even though they too may have some differences in genus and species - the manner in which they live, work, grow, and behave is quite comparable to all other trees spanning the globe. Anyone can argue the fact that we as human beings are very dissimilar from this mention Right Here: ___________________________.

Okay now that that is covered, consider this fact a little more in day to day life. Without trees, we'd actually be mostly dead (think photosynthesis, leaves transforming all of this increasing carbon into air for us to breathe), so if this is not a good favor towards trees, come on up out of that hole.

When we seek to live more like trees - and possibly get past the fear or embarrassment of considering such a thing (Hey I am a Human being!!!), the benefits for every single one of us (Think Africa to Russia to Richland Center. Wisconsin) are too simple and too many. We all can do it, and practically need to do it maybe now more than any other time.

Dang learning is fun, and so is Life :)

One thing we all share is that we secure existence in and through a relationship with our environment — all living things do. In recognition of this fact, Marx thought of the human body as part of the natural world and called nature an extension of our bodies.

*True Belief

I truly do believe that it mostly takes 10-15 minutes per day (that's 24 hours) of focus on being one's "best self" to become one's best self. Don't underestimate focus, effort, or definitely Self :)

Nature's Way

Something simple - and also quite true is this - "If two eyes are what you (or we) are given, seek to use them both."



So much truth in the seeking, an attitude we all can ascend towards in a more proper manner.

Make one initiative today, for self, and stick to that thing like never before.
This is how growth happens.
This is how life happens.

An objective for everyone this month may be to learn how to shift some from seeing events or occurrences in life as obstacles and "problems" (or this is happening to me AGAIN!) and a little more in an opportunistic light. If life is seen more similar to a hill or mountain one is seeking to scale or in a more vertical direction, what are the components to making such a journey?

I do know one thing in this regard - the solitary quest is possible (while being much more challenging) but celebrating at the top can be pretty sucky giving ones own self a few fives.

We are going this path together - in unison - and our concerns and fears and joys and parallels are built of the same thread. Other words, we are biologically almost identical in our makeup, yet our minds run and can tend to escape the fact that the binding material is what enables us to scale with more shared precision.

That's all. Know Go Grow ---
