Never a good sign: when I pulling into the work parking lot and crossing my fingers that I don’t see Fearless Leader’s car.

I am not unique-just a traveller on the road less travelled & i have faith it will b like the Frost poem, ‘…so i took the road less travelled & end the end-it made all the difference n the world’ Which is not 2 say that it is not noble & good 2 hold ones family & household 2gether, evolve n ones career, & live a sober life & b willing 2 help out other drunks..Thats what it was designed 4 & n that respect& many others-its done alot of good & i dont need 2 b playing iconoclast or jesus n the temple & sharing experience, strength & hope that goes against the grain & n some cases beyond the pale.

So anyway, i’m pretty sure u’ve heard or read during course of your journey, the zen statement, ‘Dont seek to follow n the footsteps of the men of old…instead seek what they sought. Basically 2 realize & experience that ‘lil god transmitter within u’ & experience it as u & embrace what your true self as the creator made u n its image, same n quality if not quantity with the understanding ultimately there is no well defined boundaries between the creator & its creation…n spirit & n truth there are no boundaries @ all. Which doesnt mean u shouldnt enjoy things @ this level of consciousness n what really is a temporal illusion just dont take2 darn serious or the roles u play-hard 2 swallow when yer a man with kid u love, a mortgage, a career-i know :-|

One of the more important lessons I learned after I grew up was that “it will stop” with the “it” being whatever painful emotion, negative circumstance, or feeling of despair that I’m stumbling over at the time. They will all eventually go away.

On one condition: I give myself permission to feel whatever that sadness or agony is, go through that miserable situation and see it through. I don’t escape my desperation by avoiding it. It passes when I give in to the heartache until it’s done and only then do I get to move on. There’s no avoiding it, no way to skip town or cheat it the dealer. I have to ride the bull one way or another.

Before I used to think that whatever I was feeling or dealing with was the worst possible feeling EVER and that it would NEVER go away. I didn’t know how to handle anything uncomfortable so I ran as hard as I could in the opposite direction.

I trust that the aches will stop today, the wounds will heal, the fires will cease — if I do what I’m supposed to do. Sometimes it takes a couple of hours, sometimes a couple of days, and sometimes years — but the pain will fade.

I try to reinforce this with Maggie fairly often. The cat scratches her or whatever and I tell her that it’ll only hurt for a little bit, just like last time, and then you’ll forget about it and go on about your day.

“Scatter some sunshine” to the other humans. That always helps during our own cloudy days.

As my dear friend St. James says, “Peace out, death to dogmas.”

While I was playing video games, Maggie was writing poems in Minecraft.

Just put pink frosting on a banana — much better than I expected, borderline fantastic.

DON’T JUDGE ME!
