Still Learnin'

I'm getting it,
though some days I wonder if i will ever really be past some issues...
Learnin' to be patient and non-reactive,
Even around ignorance and manipulation.

Don't Play me,
I'm not a guitar waiting for some chord to be struck...
Though I do respect my willingness to voice concerns or express clarity,
in moments when "the fog and bullshit" are getting thick.

It would be nice to be able to pin them down when the crap is being spread,
I wouldn't have a problem applying the force needed...
But it doesn't seem worth the effort,
Just the mere alluding to its presence sometimes is enough
But when ignorance is actually stupidity... I might be the only one left shaking their head!?

So I kept reciting my Sankalpa
Thanks Jill, that was a little gem I found on day 1 that keeps on giving :-)
I'v always figured that if your still learnin'...
You're headed in the right direction

5 days of Bliss

Wow... what a ride!
The weather cranks up and I start an amazing 4-day Core Immersion with Jill Miller. It was kind of crazy waking up on day 1 and suddenly doubting I was supposed to be there (even after already committing 5 Benjamins)!
But i have to find that it is the moments that "separate the men from the boys"...
History has shown it is a moment of possible danger or huge rewards & growth,
Glad to find the jewels and blessings I have received for trusting :-)

Day 1 also ended with a great surf session... totally unexpected after the weak stuff we had been getting.
The rest of the weekend had tons of fun surf and sun, even though I was slated for the Intervention.
So worth missing out on a few barrels, for the work we did and the valuable tools I know have for myself and to share with others!

I always want a day to "digest" what transpired and regroup for "reality".
Ended up giving 2 classmates from Toronto, Amber and Dawn, a surf lesson at the infamous Blackies playground.
They claimed it made their trip, so glad I could oblige.
Must of earned some good Karma credit, because I went home and surfed my front yard and got alot of sweet pits and an IN&Out stand-up barrel!! It doesn't get better than that :-)

New Beginnings

So...
Another Trip around the Sun starts today!
Marking the end of What WAS and a beginning of Now IS :-)
Reflections on the Past to sort through what worked and which might benefit from adjustment...

Cleaning out the pockets, glove box, and the backpacks
Making room for the next group of Blessings...

Resolutions and Rules not necessary, when Growth has shed It's light upon us,
like punishment isn't necessary for mistakes & "slight errors in judgement"
Humanness doesn't need reminders of our fragility or abusive responses to our learning process...


May this trip be one where we ALL find Peace and make the shift to follow Our Hearts,
So that quiet Anahata voice may be heard more clearly,
and Our eyes see what is written on Our Souls,
with Our arms reaching out and sharing this bountiful Love...



Let this lines up... 1-1-11
start this needed process back to what we came here to accomplish and experience,
It is in Each of Us,
May we see these reflects from each Other and strengthen Our conviction...
And be willing to make that Leap of Faith :-)
