Living Well

Logically, if you are enlightened, that would necessarily include being beyond doubts

not because you have foreknowledge. but rather because you have the self knowledge to know that you are capable of anything.

And the only thing that undermines that ability to do anything. is the self doubt. so

there’s the formula. let go of doubt and find enlightenment.

and I just told you that for free. to anyone who reads your blog.

Pat, in the spirit of our friendship and how I play with my pals on Facebook.

I end with this thought:

true story and TESTIFY

Dear Living Well Readers:

This is exactly what I have been trying to explain to my new roomie, Rhonda.

Because she keeps saying that I am lazy like her hubby, Lorne.

and the challenge of dealing with a straight couple, when you are a lesbian. is well.

I am kinda on Lorne’s side of this issue and not on Rhonda’s.

Ah, whacky hetersexuals and your socialized gender conventions.
that us queers so love to ape with our butch/femme and gym queen/nellies

Dear Source of Inspiration Readers and of course, my inspirational friend, Pat.

What I keep trying to explain to Rhonda is that it’s not lazy – it’s efficient.

You arrange your project in such a way as to maximize your leisure at every project stages.

Luckily, this takes more brain work than physical work or effort of will.

which most naturally, justifies the leisure time entirely.

LOL

not.just.saying.

This is completely true.

During my recovery process, I found unlearning schedules and rut routines one of the biggest challenges to let go off, because of the need in some aspects of daily living for their to be enough of a routine to make one comfortable and feel like you are contributing in some way to other people

while at the same time,

being able to receive from others too.

because then that becomes a zero sum or one sided relationship………..

let’s just say, when you fall off a pedastal whether it’s one you built yourself
or others put you on…..

it’s really a far way down.

sorry Pat. I think I changed thoughts midway and part of that was what I wanted to post on your blog

and the second part is what I wanted to post on mine, but I forgot to switch between blogs for the actual comment.

But you know, I have learned so much from your blog and http://labofevolution.wordpress.com/

that I know that I that I really need to do is close my eyes and just take a deep calming breath and just center myself in the moment that I am in.

and then everything just snaps into crystalline clarity and all is well with Nina and the universe.

what a great thought that is to have any time I want, and just by taking a breath.

something that every single person can do. no matter who or what or where they are.

I wonder how many other people have that sense of calm. and I feel sorry for people who are bothered by such things as guilt or worry or shame to the point that they can’t just enjoy a breath like I can.
