today
thankful for my inspirational therapist today. - i want to admit - I felt so well adjusted before we spoke today, I was a little nervous
about us talking today. I didn't know how the conversation would go and I felt strangely self protective. But I believe in her - so it was
a weird mix.
I think I am realizing everyone has their own voice - and they bring that to public life every day. It's no wonder people get edgy
and self protective - it's a vulnerable thing - and yet an essential thing.
I'm feeling good.
- hug,
Mark

I also know we’ve each got our take on the world and must carry that with us through life. Don’t let people who are jerks ‘rent space in your mind’ but rather put forth your philosophy, and how that manifests, expressing things in light of that but also have the awareness that we’re all crossing the divide between us. Knowing each other and dealing with how we know each other.
i pray for jerks. healing hopes for all. no exceptions
let's hear it for POPE ARFIE! The ubermensch!
lol
sorry arfie, i've had a really challenging conversation just now - if praying for those who are jerks for you works
that's great! very christian too!
sometimes the jerk i'm praying for is you, heuschrecke
is pope an acronym for, "popping off pissy eggheads?"
omg arfie - it is so crazy here at the monastery - I think I know what it's like to be a branch dividion now
or a sister wife. I find myself learning more and more about living with other people and the vicissitudes
of just momentary upsets and living with the people you work with. There's gossip and looks of ridicule
and I find myself pining for someone 'just for me'
but then get caught up in the momentum of just doing what everyone is doing - no time for being separate
or have my own life except when I am with Blue and then it's his time
...though I need to lose weight - my looks also are going down hill... too much carrying the load
of female byotch energy and being the caretaker male. I am starting to look like a shrunken head apple.
Hey Marcos did you draw that picture … it’s cool :)
Thanks missy! Yes I drew it a long time ago!
Awesome! I love it. I’m getting back into artwork to help with my sobriety and PTSD maybe if I have enough courage I will start to post them too. Thank you for sharing this
Big hugs ((((Marcos))))) and a kiss to Blue <3
thanks lil missy! post please!
yes, missy, please do post.
markus, you have someone just for you. you call him, "blue." i have lived communally and i have lived with a partner. the bad days are easier in the communal living for the comparative ease of escape. someone "just for me?" i'm not sure even my dog can pull that one off. it takes a village to live a healthy life, even for dogs.
Thanks Arfie!
:)
