Fight and Flee Free

Some would say, although not LaoTse, and maybe not the Lakotae, certainly not Animae, or my Aunty Mae on Mary Jae, Egos just wanna fight or flee or something strangely Other than with or against ego-viral identity. But Taoists healthy-Yang with wealthy-Yin display, In-between fight and flee lies our more ambiguously WinWin transubstantiating Way, already there, for those who Left with Right see what we could be with actually quite a bit more integrity. Synergy between opposing Elite/NonElite emotions need not necessarily end in quick-sand UnHoly Spirited chaos of alien ambiguous Other, mere positive or negative or not-not double-boundup intentions hiding on Other side of ego fragmentation-- Integrity remains Earth's original eco-interdependent RightMind intuition of and for creative dipolar apposition between active fight and passive flee non-abusive non-neglectful non ego-narcissistic non anthro-hubris WinWin RealTalk communication, too non-violently curious to fight, too non-aggressively courageous to flee. Sometimes, between fight and flee and you and me, I prefer to listen to divinely majestic mountains and whisper through Earth's HolySpirited valleys promising to return to our originally democratic blue-green surfing sea.
