Dying Without You

     Deep within our-self is the source of our long lasting light.  The light was initiated in its creation by a pairing.  So, matches exist for each to resonate and illuminate more intensely.

     Connect with your pairings; and, may we all more brightly shine.

In Service of the Master

     To whom do you give your precious time and unique energy; and, for what connection?

     Do you gain anything for yourself in service?  Or, do you become more bound to the service of the Master?

     Perhaps a give and take exists between the Master and servicer, a balance skewed significantly in favor of the former.

     For a Master to exist, they need servicers.  The world is full of [courageous, strong, wise, cowardly, weak, ignorant] service members willing to bend and bow to serve a Master, conforming to the cult and culture of the Master.

     A Master also provides a service, not to the servicers, but to other Masters.  So, in this way, Masters are also servicers.

Name Calling

     Those who call other people names are themselves those names.

     There is an element of objectivity to the names and labels of people.  In the objective, name calling is free so long as the name and label are accurate to the objective individual.

     Though in the subjective, anything is probable.  Anybody can be anything, there are no rules, everything is subjective.  This subjective name calling has the power to cause in the minds of people to believe cats are sheep, frogs are comedians, and lovers are haters.

     Be very wary of the subjective name calling you hear and think. 

     Remember, those who call other people SUBJECTIVE names, such as a hater, are themselves haters.  So to say, “Takes one to know one!” is accurate.

Christmas Wish

     I wish we will encourage self-control, gentleness, faithfulness, generosity, kindness, patience, peace, joy and love within ourselves and each other for a more positive, healthy, expansive existence.

Target of My Love

You can discard my love before knowing it, or; you can receive my love.  In my love you can explore the unfathomable depth of your own beauty and wisdom.

Keep the spirit of Mid-Winter all year long.  Enjoy the Winter Solstice 2024-'25.

Offended

     The only real offensives are objective.  Personal responsibility must be learned for when the offense is entirely subjective.  Find a positive, healthy, expansive way to approach the imagined offender.

     Say:  I am sorry for being offended.  Please forgive my subjective experience.  I love you.  Thank you for challenging my perception.

     We exist in a world where people believe that if they are uncomfortable they are somehow also offended.  This ignorant belief is negative, unhealthy and contractive for both the individual and the community.

Till Later Ween

     Quitting negative and unhealthy addictive substances and behaviors is a practice, like any routine.

     One way to measure how addicted a person is to a substance or behavior is how soon after they awake do they reach for that substance or enact that behavior.

     When the body is conditioned to the negative and unhealthy addictive substance and action, the amount consumed and enacted should gradually decrease.  To wean, the addicted person wills the dosage later and later until - the contractive desire dies.

Twist of the High Life

     Our existence is one of intense vulnerability.  We all need connection.  We all need security.  Most times, in order to have connection, we must let down whatever guard and become vulnerable.

     Who is to say a mature professional woman can not afford to date a younger man in a positive, healthy,- expansive way?

     She brought him to visit her mother in a far away land.  While visiting they went out for a late lunch or early dinner at a fancy ethnic restaurant.  Soon after being seated outside, another party sat at an adjacent table - a mature couple, a younger man, and two younger women, one with a newborn child and the other with a pit-bull bitch.

     The young man living the high life with his mature woman desired a cigarette after the rich food and beverages.  The other party also finished their meal and their young man went out to the parking lot to have a smoke.  So, the two young men connected with their vulnerabilities over a cigarette.

     Meanwhile, the young lady with the pit-bull bitch shared her vulnerability with the mature professional woman by asking the woman, “Is your son single?”

     The mature woman also felt vulnerable, but simply said, “No, he is not.”

     The other party came to the lot and the two younger men departed.

     The one returned to his girlfriend and her mother.  He could tell something had happened.  He reaffirmed his commitment to her; and, she found solace in knowing her boyfriend is a primadonna who detests living with dogs.
