I'll forgo "upward trajectories and positive certainties and clearly marked maps of progress" for what's real. :) Embracing the late-stage capitalist beautiful mess with you. Excited for that collage class!
I appreciate you so very much, you inspire me, as a fellow watery person and #4, but from a different background. I listen to your meditation tapes. Currently living on SS in Mexico to save money, when I make some extra I will help support you. I identify with so much that you have to say. Thank you.
Thank you for this. The idea that βFreedom is not an objectβ is working for me. The path is never linear no matter how often culture tells us otherwise.
Thank you for the invitation to embrace my very, very humanness. Sometimes it's hard not to think, "shoot--I'm off course," when really this IS the path.
I'm reading you for many months. Your humility "on this road" speeks to me. You magic insights frightens me. But I continue reading. And now : WOW. I always knew I would not touch liberation in this life (and I don't believe there will ne another one after) with the maps provided by others (buddhists or others). So my attempts were only to suffer less. But now, I understand I can navigate not "towards liberation with a map outlined by others" but by my own inner compass (do I understand right?). And you included a phrase in French! (I'm French canadian, sorry for my poor English to express such personal stuff). This letter is, probably, the one speaking to me the most. THANKS.
Itβs a true blessing to follow your βmeanderings.β And to intersect in this virtual mode with your thoughts, your art, your travels. Tennessee Williams, in the play Camino Real, has a character implore: βMake voyages. Attempt them. Thereβs nothing else.β You do, and are always willing to share your itinerary.
Mortal messiness...oh yeah...my god is it messy! I'm appreciating the reminder that getting free is a process and that all we can do is to live our ongoing process. Forever learning how to say a big, fat YES to it! <3
All of this!! After decades of being conditioned to strive for perfection and all the suffering that goes along with that, I am here to be with my very, very humanness with as much care and grace as possible. Thank you for these words!!
ooo.... an All Soul's Day collage offering... look forward to reading more! ππ§ββοΈπ¨

Yes, Ann! Care & Grace could be a new tattoo! Much love to you.
Thanks for sharing. I have a very similar economic/job situation going on right now. It is liberating and terfifying. Fun and unexpected..
I love being a Virgo :)
In my Natal Chart, my Mercury (our ruling planet) is in Virgo, and I was born during a Mercury in Virgo Retrograde season. βοΈ
