This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 01, 2008:

In truth, I know there is neither end nor beginning, only the scope of my self-imposed limits of  perception.

     Within the scope of my limited perception....
I would like to see the end of the delusion of cultural primacy, particularly in the US!

What does 'enough' mean to you?

Posted on May 6th, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 06, 2008:

Enough is no more and no less than  it takes to be at peace.

This is an individual assessment, but enough is always defined by what is in the heart and not what is in the hand.

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 20, 2008:

As we are the Absolute, existing for eternity--before and after time--encompassing All, including All knowledge, we are not learning, only playing at the experience of learning.

Where do you find security?

Posted on May 22nd, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 22, 2008:

Sitting quietly at the center of my being. No matter the activity that goes on around me, it is what goes on within that determines the impact of my experience.

 

You project onto the world around you what you hold within.
As within, so without.

Where are you taking risks?

Posted on May 23rd, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 23, 2008:

Eight years ago they told me I needed a heart valve replacement in 6 weeks. It still has not happened and I continue to walk the mountain and work heavy labor—they cannot understand how the heart is not expanding.
      I continue on the next books though the last one brought me to the edge of bankruptcy.
      I love deeply, though the heart may be broken. I dream intensely, though dreams sometime shatter.
      I follow my path, my truth, no matter the reaction of the outside world.

Risk? I live, loving life; laugh for the joy of it, and am grateful for these blessings.
My life is an easy one.

What are you excited about?

Posted on May 24th, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 24, 2008:

I get excited about the next time Kathy and I have together (each morning, each evening, and any even more special times).
I get excited about the things the muses slip into my novel.
I get excited about bits of knowlegde that I given, things that I know cannot be empirically justified.
I get excited by every simple joy given me by the mountain, the birds, the smiles of others, the joy of others.....

I guess I am easy.....

When do you do your best thinking?

Posted on May 25th, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 25, 2008:

I do my best thinking when I am not thinking....inside meditation, after hours on the mountain trail, or wholeheartedly following along the muses......
I am out of my mind, not thinking...
And suddenly...there is a thought, a concept, an image, an idea!

You know," Happiness [and best thinking] is as a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.

--Nathaniel Hawthorne

Posted on May 28th, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 28, 2008:

Kathy and I play all the time....not at anything in particular, but at every silly little thing--like kids, play for play sake, with no real sense to it. Just fun!
  Often I play with the crew I work with....word play and laughter.

What do you consider to be true strength?

Posted on May 29th, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 29, 2008:

Strength is being open to being weak.
What am I strong at? Being me, in the full range of the definition...in things commonly defined as possitive and negative (which only have meaning in context. Change the context and they become the opposite).
blessings and tears,

Do you pay attention to your dreams?

Posted on May 31st, 2008 by C.G. : Sacred Vow C.G.
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 31, 2008:

How arrogantly misguided of waking consciousness to imagine that it is the preeminent part of this experience that I imagine as ‘me'.

Dream, waking, vision, imagination are all sides of a multi-faceted gem...like today, yesterday, tomorrow, and last life, etc...

Shall I question whether I will believe in yesterday?


Do I believe in dreams?!?
Pray they believe in me!
