Hopes for the blog:
offer up the wild intersectedness of lived experience and engage others in creative, expressive, perhaps irreverant, hopefully playful, and respectful encounters....
enact kindness
create moments of pause for disclosure, discovery, stillness

summer has a different feel and rhythm at my workplace. with the return of the post labour day regular nastiness, i am invoking a mantra that will give me perspective.... and hopefully keep me out of jail.
ReplyDeleteIf you do go to jail...i'll throw your bail. I know that mantra well and I know myself even better...be free from jail and prison of self.
ReplyDeleteWM-- thanks for that wonderful reminder... there are all kinds of prisons and jails. and thanks for the bail offer. hopefully it won't come to that. cheers!
ReplyDeletePrisons come in all varieties to suit the individual taste of the consumer - oops - sorry - did I really type that out loud.
ReplyDeletePisces---yes you did. this is what makes you the .... special person you are. ;))
