There should be a program that balances Federal funds AGAINST state incentives in such a way as to assure an evenly spread industrial and commercial network in our United States of America. Companies and industries that significantly impact the gross national product should NOT be permitted to jeopardize the national economic health via full blown autonomy. The idea that the companies of a nation are any less accountable for the health of the gross national product along with our general, economic health as a nation beyond coddling up to the states that house them, the government that legislates on their behalf (for shared […]
Pure Seeds, for life.
I am utterly certain that someone much more famous than I have said these things before me; but since I’m not “educated” enough to know of them, and I came to these on my own, with no help but my own experiences, I claim them as mine. With that disclaimer/preface, here is the tightest packing of “Pure Seed” concepts for getting things done that I know. My hope is it will be helpful to you. But at the very least, perhaps it will pique your curiosity enough to find the previously mentioned famous folk and get an educated take on […]
Vajracitta
My path has ever rolled like an avalanche along; in precious, raw, rough parallels, our movements met and, for a moment, harmonized. A moment’s harmony is not a song, but the moment of harmony creates possibility in all who experience it. My wobbling trajectory, with all its graceless noise, was steadied, albeit a transient state, only fleetingly. I wanted to find the loop, the regenerative feedback, and sought it with panicked, shaky hands. I did not understand that my own trembling shifts created the disharmony. I did not understand that what I saw as devotion and loyalty could be seen […]
Mayday
They have had a position for a program manager open for over a year; at no time did they even remotely consider that I would be happy and willing to work for them. They never considered that, for me, working for them would be the very likely best possible way to show them how much I care about them, their growth and success, and in very particular, that I could see my daughter achieve and attain all the things I ever wanted for her, ever hoped for her, and many I could not conceive of due to my own, unfortunate […]
Chapter 1: First Memory
Each of these are going to be prefaced by some manner of contextual information or a view on perspective today, looking back at the moment being rendered to writing. In this case, the literal ‘first memory’ I find in the mental attic. I suppose in a way, this will be both my biography and my memoir. Or just a transient phase, left to dry and drift away on digital winds. Time will tell. I sat in the large, steel, farm kitchen sink with the sun directly in my eyes. Through the window on my left, the gentle, swaying giant oak […]
Communativity matters
To kneel at the feet of the guru; awed by the mystery To weep freely before the cultural hymn of a symphony To speak wildly regardless both cacophony and irony To stand with intention at once serene and communally To commit as do you to peacefulness or tomfoolery To suffer no demand that benefits an individual more than the specie To endure as well as possible the inevitability of my own hypocrisy To burn until the fuel of myself-ness, exhausted, mutters quietly To thereafter gather the leavings rendered most literally To scatter, to undo, to ease and release as community […]
SAO – Unexpected Feels
“Sometimes, there are things you can only communicate by clashing.” – Yuuki Aonno
Ashes and dust and….
The song lyric goes, “Every generation, blames the one before, and all of their frustrations, come beating at your door…”
