Consider this. If you tune in, really tune in to what is unfolding in your life, can't you feel when things are shifting and turning, realigning in a sense. I'm not just talking when things seem to feel better, or you start getting along with your wife, or you get hired to a more fitting [...]
I felt it....this morning. Unable to sleep....doing my toss-turn-flop-head churning-dreaming thing I do when I can't sleep. (it's the dogs and their incessant licking that woke me.....oooooh, my pups....CLEAN pups)! Okay, Mercury's in retrograde (and more specifically, here)....my friend Louise keeps me up to date with such things. I'm never sure what that means though [...]
Come on, they do....mine do.... ...but I have proof, solid hard evidence that if you love on a creature, (I'll submit this might be relevant for human beings as well).....if you LOVE ON an animal every day of its life, pet it, make sure it has food, water, exercise, clean bedding and temperatures not too [...]
'Don't be afraid to be outrageous; the critics will shoot you down anyway.' Sir Laurence Olivier It's true....working to please the world will just get you in one mess a trouble. My best friend 2Lu, (who has a milestone birthday this very day), tells me often to not have expectations and I'll never be [...]
I've been thinking a good bit about death lately. Of course we're all GOING to die....I don't know anyone who ultimately won't or hasn't. Certainly there are folks who work ardently in defying it....working to look young, stay healthy....all that. Well, I certainly have a measure of vanity and would prefer being a good looking [...]
It's truly the LITTLE things that keep me going. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxffKnPPKnI&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&fs=1] BB Webb
"Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance." - Morgan Freeman, Actor I'm practicing.....but.....ooooh, ooooooh I gotta run....I've got to go.... I have an appointment. So, you see the challenge. Still amidst mayhem and travail. I'm a practicing 'stillness' artist, feeling flushed all the [...]
Necessary Losses, Necessary Humor... This week has presented all manner of choices in my world....mostly on the perspectives I might best adapt. We make plans, reach out, pull inside, rally a bit, rage perhaps, break down, stand up, smile, meet, call, sit, watch, dream, fall back, write, write, write, write....sleep, imagine, engage fantasy, move forward [...]
I've always produced. Always. I was making up skits and plays when I was 4, dressed in plastic high heels, often wore a cape like Mighty Mouse (from the cartoons), and would jump off chairs feeling rather 'mighty' myself. At one point I thought it'd be fun to be an elephant when I grew up, [...]
The key, I am finding, is listening. The 'answers', if you call them that, the clues, signs, signals, guides, are everywhere. We just need to pay attention, to listen. I've had another test to my own faith in navigating through yet another (what I call), creative 'funk'. You know what I'm talking about, surely. [...]
