creating a space for nuanced living
Thought

Perfectionism is a sign of not enough contact

I see that being able to push off of people, and have a lot of contact in my day/life, keeps me from over perfect ionizing.

(A person who is a perfectionist, needs a lot of contact, and release).


Faith

I only want to be seen, in the things I don’t yet accept.


Self-love and freedom

I’m not here to be the initial, wow-aha person. I work in the dedicated practice realm. That is where I shine and give/receive my gifts.  This is my self-acceptance.  I let go of guilt and shame.


Commitment 2

“I am a commitment to really being present.”


Commitment

“I am a commitment to compassionate strength, because it allows me to release my gifts.”


Empty yourself

First, you have to empty yourself out (that can take a lot of letting go, a lot of struggle) Nothing can enter before you release.


Power as you

“Power is your right to be your own unique self.”
~ F.T., a somatic coach and Aikido master, Oct 2014


Fresh start, into adulthood

Let the shell die and bring something new.


Return to Instinct

– When you move from knowledge to wisdom..
– You return to being a child.


Learner

“I am building my database, from the right materials this time, … with intimacy.”


Sowing the seeds

A new way of looking at each day:

Sowing the seeds,

not preparing.


Alive

I hug my mom, and it feels good.


Quote

“Excellence is staying in the threshold, constantly staying in that threshold because life is always changing.”
~ me, touchstone for my (yet created quarterly) newsletter


Letting go, again

I don’t have any energy when I’m letting go.

I have to allow wherever I am.

I need to allow other people wherever they are.

It unfolds naturally then.


A-ha

“No one can have power over me if I am present.” ~ me


I stop

And friends all around. Life all around.


And I stop

I come out of the fog.
*
I stop looking.


Dancing

I am really into dancing right now.


Acceptance

Acceptance.. preceded by wild negotiation, running, and grief. (Oh, so this is what they mean..)


In

If I can be bored, if I can be alone, then I can be free.
