Simplicity

Wed, 20 Apr 2016 17:18:47 -0600

I have a tendency to build elaborate and complex models for why something is not happening the way I want in my life, or for why I shouldn’t do something, move, act. Models that include fear of failure and scrutiny by others. And I’m realizing, more and more, that those models aren’t useful to me. They are an old pattern, a broken record, recorded for another time and another place.

So now I’m beginning to wonder what the truth is. What I want to say, without all the layers of fear on top of the desire to say it. Am I willing to simply, vulnerably be myself in the midst of that maelstrom. To not need to defend my experience, but to simply state it for the record.

An acknowledgement of what is, plainly and simply.

And from that place of acknowledgement, to simply do. To act from that knowing.

My mission

Fri, 17 Apr 2015 00:23:55 -0600

I want to help people (starting with myself, and moving outward as quickly as possible) to live healthy, fulfilling, inspired and connected lives. And I want to help them live those lives from the stability, power, grace, groundedness and love of Emptiness, Awakened Mind. Awake and Growing up.
