Sigh...
Just some of the things I've learned in my 30+ years on earth this lifetime:
In youth we learn, with age we understand
The more I know, the more questions I have
Love is the answer
I might never know as much about joy and being present with friends as this
It's not difficult for me to do something/try something new, but it is difficult/rare for me to stick with something (other than friendships)
Next year at Burning Man I'll have a motorized vehicle
Hand made gifts are more important to living than breathing is
Not everyone should have children; only those who make it a priority to raise responsible people
I'll never know everything, nor is that a goal
Sex is fun
My definition of "Family" is "by choice"
It's never been difficult to not become jaded until the past couple of months of my life...during this time I've been more quiet and hermit-like than all of my life...I feel like I'm coccooning a bit. I do not want to become jaded; I do want to become more compassionate. It's not easy but it's worth it.....trying trying trying trying........
Building altars creates magic
I need to build more altars
Altars need to be modified routinely and also at whim to keep them alive
To me a house is not a home without cats. I (heart) my roommates Isabelle (the mommy) and Rex (the daughter). They heart each other, and they heart me and you. Sigh.....purrrrrrr......
Friendship crushes rule!!!!
I need to take better care of my physical body, as in:R T F M
There's worthwhile and sometimes life-changing efftects to experiencing and integrating colon cleansing, reiki, yoga, accupuncture, walking meditation, feldenkrais, feng shui, orgasms, baths, snuggling with friends
I love to live alone, but it is extremely necessary to stay with loved ones often too, at their homes and mine (and sometimes somewhere else)
If life is boring then you are not paying attention
Money is a tool just as important as hammers n nails, vibrators, spoons, altered conciousness, and power tools. Note: all of the tools mentioned can be used constructively and destructively. Choosing to use them constructively adds much depth to your life (if you're anything like me, which I suspect that you are)
I do not know the word which describes what an extremely humble person I am to admit to how much I do not know. I am Humble Humble Humble, even if I come across about being secure in what I know: I know there's more to know!
Some sum. And there's always more to add.
