On Social Distancing and What is being asked right now...
What is being called forth in this moment?
Plant and Pivot.
This moment calls for equal parts of finding ground and safety beneath our feet while we ride out the storm and preparing for the shift ahead.
What is this experience that is being had right now?
Each moment is asking for acknowledgement and presence, each moment passes into a big, beautiful, scary and uncertain future that we are capable of experiencing fully.
What is going to be learned from this moment?
This process is reminding me to be patient as I access potential. Again, I find myself wanting to move in every direction at once. Again I am realizing that this is a moment for me to land, to look around and to see that I am enough and we are enough to create and build and sustain the world we want to live in. This moment is the shift and the opportunity of a culture and a species to let go of old and inefficient ways of being.
I will accept this moment and land right here. I will accept this position and this assignment in life. To make the best of what is around me. To reach into the possibility of a life lived with purpose, relevance, significance and patience.
I will be;
A man in service to his family and his tribe.
A man who enjoys consciousness and shares in the delights of subjectively experiencing an ever expanding and intricately connected universe.
A man who appreciates collective objectivity and works to maintain the well being of the tribe creating safe nurturing spaces for each other and for the next generation.
A benevolent leader in support of other leaders growing households, tribes and nations committed to sustaining personal freedom, social responsibility and ecological awareness.
What am I committed to sharing right now?
I have been cultivating self for a lifetime. I am a master of the selfish, the passion of selfism. To explore and examine what the self is, and what the self can become. To share with others in order to create a significant field of existence.
I live and teach relevance in the natural cycles of life. Relevance and significance begin with a container of support. In the safety of support, vulnerability and honesty are safe to speak.
In the field of vulnerability and honesty we can witness a deeper, solid version of self. The self that speaks the truths everyone can detect and no one else allows themselves to feel. That self that can be at once attractive and supportive, spacious and passionate.
This is the pivot that my life is going through right now. This is the pivot that our species is experiencing right now. There is an opportunity right now to be with people in their realness, to be doing the work of healing and celebrating the self that is here to serve family and community, to support and nurture a planet rebuilding and optimizing our culture for the next generation. To build and leave a legacy of responsibility, nurture and sustainability.
This is an invitation to discover and celebrate the self that you keep to yourself. A pause and an opening to allow that deeper self to emerge and move with deftness and precision through this transition. To empower a self to feel and to notice the beautiful edges and tangles in your soul that give you depth and wisdom in this life. You and your Self are a gift to our world and until we live in a tribe that allows the selves to show up and acknowledge our selfishness our progress will be stunted as we wait for another to see us and give us permission.
