Here and Now...What's Happening?

Hmmmmm...I'll be right there and will chase 'em around the hills with BIG stick : )

that is about what I was thinking. I resolved a similar problems with my neighbour by being scarier to him than he was to me. Respect if now in, at least on the surface, what he says I do not care. But he did stop insulting the people coming to work on my lawn.

I do not appreciate to have to behave this scary way, but some do not understand otherwise.

Just found this and wanted to share...will probably put a link to it here and there on the forum...some of you have already seen it in the past, I'm sure.
It is a couple years old but I feel it is really taking hold now, now, now...most all of the things he talks about are actually coming together in some way, shape or form and the tides really are turning...BIG Time!!!

Here is what he says about the Bilderbergers..."it's a load of nobodies who wanna be somebodies,
combining with somebodies who are on their way down. I'm not impressed."
Cool dude.

It must be those solar flares.

It is. I can feel the tension, right now.

yep.


And the 'left' of the people.... is going to eat the sharks. The least the power structure can expect is that humanity is collectively going to beat them to death. The tolerance is breaking.

Can't say they haven't earned it.

I'm busy training some friends as well as a cousin how to control weather.
They are worried about losing their roofs near Hamburg in the approaching storm.
People need to learn how to modify the storms in their tea cups.

Here is an alternative for tent dwellers who want to remain invisible.
Since my Eco Village idea is not materializing as fast as it should, due to lack of funds,
I was thinking of starting a camping ground instead....

Good morning, team.

I rarely get a full night's rest these days. How much of it is because of my mattress and the noise, I don't know, although the same thing often happens at my parent's house. Waking around 5am, and if I dare go to bed early, more like 3am. My sister was visiting this past weekend and she mentioned that she's been waking up at 4am every day. I don't use facebook much, but one of my contacts mentioned a few weeks ago all the status updates reporting insomnia.

I awake tense; this is the time when stored emotion is most apparent. It likes to remain as generalized tension within the body and nagging chatter within the mind. I notice that I usually experience my body in a curiously vague and nonspecific way, likely through most of my life, not really noticing where discomfort is occurring and how it feels, even as it drives decision-making and the urge to seek distraction. Locating sources of pain actually takes some time and concentration, contrary to the commonsense notion that physical pain would be immediately apparent. Perhaps some of it has to do with multiple areas being affected simultaneously.

When I proceed to breathe deeply and trace its origin, it ping pongs around the body. Though, it spends much time in the 'balloon' in my stomach and the 'noose' around my throat. Compulsive swallowing, choking. Back down to the stomach where it cooks for a while. Pressure behind eyes. I know it wants to come out. More swallowing. Lost it again. Where is it? Mental chatter. Around in circles...

I can't look people in the eyes and talk honestly, sincerely, without feeling as if I would barf it all out on the spot. It could be a discussion about toilet paper. Makes no difference. The subtler, human element is present and asking through every communication.

Trust me, Gekko, it's just a phase. Alternating your attention on the inside and outside is still new, and so it's bound to feel weird. Remember most people only look out, and complain to others when their body sends signals like pain, or other abnormalities. Really observing and studying the self, the way a scientist would look at an insect under a microscope, with great interest yet emotional detachment, takes some time getting used to. But it is the fastest method there is for getting the ego under control.
Hang in there....you are doing great...

Yes, there is quite a bit of wind here too, expected to peak overnight; trying to keep this down to manageable proportions.

In the UK they are bracing themselves for another 1987 storm. The trouble then, and now, was that the leaves are still on the trees, making our woody friends so much more vulnerable. Maybe some of them are out to kick some ass, as in Lord of the Rings, which I gather is a true story

Trust me, Gekko, it's just a phase.

I hope so. That one part of looking people in the eyes and wanting to cry has been going for a few years now, since I weaned myself off medication.

Then cry. Feel their sorrow. Just observe that, as well. That's what I do....
I cry quite often as well, it is natural. after all, there is just so much suffering out there, and what can I do?
But then by observing my responses to what I see out there, creates another set of eyes, the observer.
And with time that observing entity grows...it doesn't identify nor judge. It records.

Love to the village.

The Invitation

It doesn’t interest me
what you do for a living.
I want to know
what you ache for
and if you dare to dream
of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me
how old you are.
I want to know
if you will risk
looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me
what planets are
squaring your moon...
I want to know
if you have touched
the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened
by life’s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.

I want to know
if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know
if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you
to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us
to be careful
to be realistic
to remember the limitations
of being human.

It doesn’t interest me
if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear
the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.

I want to know
if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
“Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me
to know where you live
or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me
who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me
where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know
what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.

I want to know
if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like
the company you keep
in the empty moments.

Organic... my favorite poem so far, BB

Thank you, ulli and the village. Goodnight

[ulli]

I just put this picture up on Onawah's beautiful picture thread.
But don't want to deprive our Village, so Im putting it here as well.

Glad to see you back, Benevolent Bear. I missed you.

[Benevolent Bear]

Thanks Ulli, I have been in a dead chicken funk! A coyote wiped out six of my ten chickens while I was at the grocery last Saturday. The horror of it all! I am still not over it. Went and picked up fencing for a chicken run today, no more free range! Harsh realities of the urban farmer.

I'm very sorry to hear that. I hope that coyote had at least a bad bout of indigestion afterwards.
Lets hope that nothing like that ever happens again.

BB, I've been thinking of you. Sorry about your chickens.
