Have you been thinking more of the past or the future?

Posted on Feb 3rd, 2009 by ItsWill : Atrayu & Bastian ItsWill
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 03, 2009:

I live experiencing this moment, focusing on that moment, hoping for the "Later."  I have heard and spoken the "there is only now" rhetoric, and firmly believe it...but honesty compels me to tell anyone reading this that I do, indeed, dwell on past mistakes and am often so optimistic for the future that when it arrives, it looks faulted.

I am a motivated, rational organism...so the optimism of my future arrives, and my present gives way to chastising the missteps of past moments for undermining a potential that has always been limited by the laws of an imperfect Organism -- Me.

I need to learn to listen.  Wait, what was the question?  I was talking to myself.

What have you learned about love?

Posted on Feb 13th, 2009 by ItsWill : Atrayu & Bastian ItsWill
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 13, 2009:

Love is a continual affirmation, just like Gratitude, which can be made by choice at any moment.  I love you Now and until I find a reason to recoil that vulterability.  I love you while I learn to forgive you.  I love you Now in the Again.

How do you know when you're on the right path?

Posted on Feb 15th, 2009 by ItsWill : Atrayu & Bastian ItsWill
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 15, 2009:

This is the path I am on.  Therefore, it matters not whether "right" or "wrong."

The only real alternative "path" is presented in where I place my next step.  Awareness and Hope remind each other in a dance I have always called Faith.  I know my Awareness is limited, directed by my Hope.  And my Hope waivers, reinforced by my Awareness.  Tenacity, perhaps, keeps me stepping at times.  A smile at my Freedom and the Chaos it can create, with each step, brings out the fun in the journey.

And this has been a Journey I will All Ways be grateful for.

Beneath the quilt on my bed.  "Awake, baby wake...but leave that blanket 'round you, there's nowhere as safe."

What does your body want to say to the world?

Posted on Feb 28th, 2009 by ItsWill : Atrayu & Bastian ItsWill
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 28, 2009:

My shoulders ache from these attempts to lift the world.  The arches of my feet have fallen, the inside of my knees and my hips will fail amidst my mid-life.  I feel crushed as a pillar, incorrectly designed to brace for the weight, as this world drags itself down.

And I laugh, suddering the load.  I've not nothing better to do, and an entire virtual community of neighbors, who are also weary.  Thank you all.

"Hey!  You doin alright over there?"
