I love smoothie bowls. I get to pretend to eat something healthy, but it's basically a bowl of ice cream 😁
Becoming relevant again as I'm in Flores, Guatemala, now, heading to Tikal soon.

Forgot my laptop at the last place I was staying at, I think my subconscious is trying to tell me something....
I've been traveling here in the Yucatan area of Mexico for the past week and notice myself dragged into the traveler lifestyle. Really hard to find my own way when there are obvious paths to follow.
Suddenly feeling tender nostalgia and a sense of home, entering a random bookstore in Merida, Mexico. Don't read the language well, yet, but bookstores are bookstores.
A Dialog on Recognition of Completeness A dialog between an AI, posing as a meditation teacher, and a student about the nature of awareness, edited from a longer conversation. The student has significant meditation experience and...
Why is this moment | experience not complete, not whole, not perfect? What is complete | whole | perfect?
Yes, mom, I should be packing, but I'm having a meditative insight talking to my AI, ok?!?
Was touched by listening to the Emerald's podcast on syncretic gods of wandering. Touches on this sense of being slightly lost and away from home and how that is part of the human experience. That every deeply rooted people wandered there at some point.
When I first encountered "Amor Fati" - ie loving your fate - in Rob Burbea's work it didn't hit the same way as other stuff. But I notice myself coming back to it more and more. It's burrowing deep in my psyche, becoming a rallying cry, a ray of hope, an iron resolve.
I'm struck by the wisdom of all of us making time to be in nature in contrast with the need for us to even develop this wisdom.

Went to contact impro tonight and it was soooooooo nice. Allowing lots of feminine energy to express itself. Following my embodied yes and no. E.g. by noticing when I was contorting myself energetically. Had two beautiful encounters with the same person that felt nourishing.
There is only the choice between love and fear. And choosing love means forgiving yourself for choosing fear, forgiving others for choosing fear.
Moving out tomorrow, so I'm packing and decluttering today. So difficult and draining 😩

Just had Claude do a tarot reading for me as the Esmeralda Nightshade character. 10/10 recommend Even better because it had past introspection conversations as context. Can't really read body language easily 😁

Prayer Here I work in the hollow of God's hand with Time bent round into my reach. I touch the circle of the earth, I throw and catch the sun and moon by turns into my mind.
Soul is a glittering geode A diamond in the rough Something deep in the mountain Created by the pressures of creation It’s beautiful all by itself But if you excavate it You can enhance its beauty You can make it shine But if you’re not careful With the shining You’ll break it.
Struggling to decide whether to show up for a call. I feel low energy and need to get other stuff done, but I also want to practice showing up
Core values as elucidated yesterday by looking at people I admire: Courage, love of truth and beauty, (willingness to follow) intuition, playfulness/openness/curiosity, leadership/showing up, compassion Focus for the next bit: courage With a side of showing up and compassion
