Positive Political ProblemsMy fundraising problem with positive psychology,
said the good health doctor,
it is too social science squishy,
not leftbrain dominant enough,
Suspiciously ecofeminist
for natural science pathologists
Straight-White privileged proctologists
urologists
bicamerally challenged cardiologists.
I must concede
not ecopolitically erect enough
correct indeed

trauma systems empathist,
But, sometimes premature win/win
complex opportunity theory
looks like yet...

At the Gates of AuschwitzAt The Gates of Auschwitz
Today, I stand
At the gates of hell;
“Arbeit macht frei,”
(work sets you free!)
That is Auschwitz.
Where they burned God’s children,
And the world stood by;
Oblivious,
To what was happening inside.
The League of Nations
(Whose mandate was World Peace)
Failed!
And in 1942
The trains rolled into Auschwitz
Carrying God’s children;
Packed...

New BeginningsToday we begin with a quote from Eisenstein
with commentary in brackets
informed by Bucky Fuller's cooperative metaphysic
of Synergetic Steerage.
"We have a[n autonomic neurosystemic] need to stay in contact with people with whom we share emotional and economic ties. In past times, these people were...

Chicken Soup FarmRelationships are like farming,
if you don't plant the seed,
you'll have no crop to harvest.
Rumi (M. Mafi, trans.)
Investing is like farming,
if you don't play the game,
you'll have no winnings.
Economics is like farming,
if you don't play this cooperative game,
you'll have no competitive winnings.

Earthy EmpathyYou've heard that self-unfulfilling prophecy?
"I love humanity--
it's just people I can't stand."
I love healthy humanity--
it's just uppity and/or snooty people I can't stand
I love cooperative humanity--
it's just overly-competitive individuals I can't stand.
Not so distant from,
I love U.S. society
and nationalistic
patriarchal monotheism,
absence of healing and empowering...

Creative Climates For ThinkingfeelingWe are each a new way of bilateral becoming and thinking
about what a mind with body is,
where these are headed,
individually,
and as a part.
Thinking about what embodied consciousness is
and where,
in what stable climates of opportunity,
and which unstable subclimates of risk,
enculturing new ways of bilateral becoming
what our...

Answers Without QuestionsWhy do questions hope to end with answers
while answers seem to never end
without yet more questions?
As a case in point...
How are the Case Studies of economic and political history
different than Einstein's Thought Experiments?
Wait a minute...
Yes, well that's not really a difference, I think.
Thought Experiments...

Wise EldersWise Elders are patient,
fully embrace compassion's communication
and health care
of climates and cultural landscapes,
animated persons,
sacred spaces,
organic places,
panentheistic plants
and monotheistic planet
impassioned hopes
and pleasant dreams
rebuilding positive faith.
Wise Elders co-passionately listen
for karmic grace of love peaks
overflowing.
If Wise Revolutionaries
for revivalist change,
clearing murky swamps,
then WiseElder re-connecting evolutionaries
toward perennial peace

Loving DefiancePunishing for revenge,
could this occur to natural systems
without capacity to imagine alternative futures?
Punishing others for their defiant behavior,
actions and words stronger than ignorantly ignoring,
bolder than merely angry with Other
and our defenseless selves
But how much more
to accurately measure fair consequences
for words of anger
compared to more...

People of FaithIt's hard to say where and when our town's People of Faith Cooperative started.
After all,
we have all emerged together,
and are still emerging
people of TaoGod,
right?
Our faith includes defining our still humanizing species
as among those not capable of autonomously regenerating ourselves
into our divine health functions,
or even our...

Transparent ExodusImagine we live in an eco-normative story
of competing for wealth-commodities,
cash piled in quantifiable currencies,
collectively blinded to our Win-Win
natural economic,
ecological,
psychological,
biological health and well-being
nurturing value roots.
One day, our PolyCultural Received View
unveils a co-operatively synergetic evolution
of positive health
anticipating mutual subsidiarity wealth

Dear AmericaEveryone is searching for answers in the midst of current tragedies
Two unarmed black men and five white cops gunned down mercilessly
Black in Americans are incensed over the slaying of so many black men
But the answer is not the killing of white cops...
