shifting thinking

 

Memories
with full-fledged smells,
orchestration,
ambient electric excitement.
 
 
 
You’ll never get it back.
Find better ways to waste your time.
 
 
 
I have no clue what you may think of me,
distracted by the screams I don’t let out.
 
 
 
Find your others
Splinter into tribes
Weakened lives
 
 
 
The simple change of gender of the
pivotal character gives the current production
of the newly imagined Sondheim classic
“Company” a whole broadened and
deepened meaning to the theme of
marriage.
 
 
 
What if it isn’t “ego” --
an elevated sense of self-entitlement --
but those voices screaming in their
heads:  SUCCEED!
 
 
 
Higher Ed for the rest of us without debt:
“Mentors” – professional educators who devise
and share curricula for courses including
information and how to get it, then
discussions to discern the meanings and
uses of that information within the overall
course of study.
Mentors to be paid a reasonable fee by
the students or an education organization.
Online or/and in small group settings.
A directory of internships and diy centers
for hands-on experience in relevant courses.
 
 
 
stop
 
breathe, slowly, deeply, completely
 
focus on calm (maybe imagine a calm, happy place)
 
gaze dispassionately on your path
 
find and take the next step
 
repeat
 
 
 
it makes sense in these days of climate change
 and worldwide disruption that we all figure
out ways to produce what we need locally
 
 
 
rights imply responsibilities and restrictions
when necessary for public safety (not
shouting "fire" in a crowded theater sort of thing)
