This is my 500 for 2/6/2018

I don’t know where these words are going but I understand the direction that I am going.

Checking back in with myself along the way.. finding it easier and easier to confirm when I am on the path that resonates…

 


Watering the garden a little bit each morning before the sun beats down and the frost fades away… we are obligated to water that which we wish to see grow in the world.. controlling these thoughts and images like a child playing a video game.. I just have to visualize the end-point.. visualize the end-game… where I wish to be… and cross my fingers that the journey will be worth the destination…

Maybe the point is to be more in tune with the moment so that the destination can be an extension of the journey.. it is not the purpose.. there is something larger at play here.. why am I walking and talking in circles when I already know what I want to say.. there are past behaviors and images that I am trying to intentionally neglect..

 

but the focus must turn.

 

The focus must turn towards growing that which I wish to see more of…

 

focusing on the future through building a new vision.. re-creating and re-purposing long-list ideals.. I am a vessel that can create and share… capable of obtaining my dreams.. capable of horrible destruction.. turning my gaze towards love while recognizing that railing against the hate is the surest way to become that which I despise.

 

We are in it for the long run.. we are in it for the short-term.. we are in it for the story.. the narrative.. the reality that we walk in our minds.. bouncing ideas off of mirrors.. reflecting on the future and the present and pretending that the past never really happened.

 

Because we are human.. we are tripped up by algorithms and laughed at by our inner dialogue.. keeping them in their place.. keeping the fear in a jar with just a few holes poked at the top. Because I don’t care about leaning towards my anger.. I care about the infinite energy that surrounds us.. and its connection to the universe.. the way that humans interact.. the way that we share our connections.. the way that we love one another.. life is so grand.. and we are just playing along.. we are in a park.. surrounded by play-sets… it is so much fun to find some friends along the way that want to get lost in their imagination with you.

It just makes for a better story to be passed down to our children.. it just makes for the best possible reality.. I am so grateful that you would take the time out of your day to read these thoughts transposed onto the screen.. not understanding the purpose or their intent just like me.. but there is something that is at the core of these thoughts.. and I’ll keep picking away… peeling back the layers… drawing back the shades… thank you for listening.
