I am doing too much. The house is a wreck - started putting up curtain rods in the living room (the sheer was very artfully tacked up with push pins) and the rods didn't fit so I launched out to get one that did - HOURS ago. We had been having beautiful weather; Monday it was sunny and 82 so I spent the whole day outdoors. Cold front hit so it was 60 and raining all day yesterday. Today when I set out on my errand, it started clearing up and I somehow found myself at my new fav coffee shop (thanks, Eric!) sitting on a sidewalk table reading the most Amazing Book.* Then I went to see Kathi, we had dinner, then back to her house for a bit. I got home around 9, the place is still a wreck and the paper fairy has laid down today's 4" on the dining room table but I made a beeline up to the football room with a pressing need to blog.
* Amazing book - Power Vs. Force (the hidden determinants of human behavior) by David Hawkins. I have seen the kinesis muscle testing done, believe it with all my being. And this book ties in morphogenetic fields, quantum physics, chaos theory, all great spiritual teachings into simple elegant observations such as "Force always moves against something. Power, in contrast, energizes, gives forth, supplies and supports." and "The universe holds its breath as we choose, instant by instant, which pathway to follow; for the universe, the very essence of life itself, is highly conscious." Yes, everything is one energy. Our bodies are constantly responding to our thoughts - which can be weaker power attractors, or negative. Repeated patterns of thought can cause the body to align with these - and cause disease. I'm annoting this book like crazy as it ties together other things I've read/learned, and experienced. I'm expanding exponentially to take this all in and want to be moving very fast. Trying to sit with it and let it sink in instead!

Other stuff: making plans for my first trip to northern CA to visit in over 2 years and I want to see
everyone, go all of my favorite places and take lots of pictures and start planning how to spend more time there! I'm slowly getting in touch with people to mooch spare rooms, get the party started (thanks, Nancy & Peri), cap it with a sublimely life-changing time and encounters on the Big Sur coast (thanks, Pat!) I've been trying to get on left coast time by staying up to 2 and sleeping to 9; it really makes the days seem shorter. But it's not too hard to do, I may have rediscovered my natural rhythm.

What's kicking off this trip is another spirituality seminar - in Vegas of all places. The books I've been reading lately have been in preparation; and as you've read the books are blowing the top off my mind. I anticipate otherworldy great vibrations and huge personal growth from this. November 07 is going to be an amazing month in my life.

A love note: to Incubus - how, how, where does your poetry come from? Best love song
ever is 'Dig' on the Light Grenades CD. Your work has gotten me through some low spots and smiling out the other end. Thank you so much!
