So Why Competing
So why competing? When you see a young                               parrot singing ," Respect your husband              and  Stop competing                             with him to                                             save your marriage." You will be astonished to see                                 a bird telling                                                 you the truth. So why competing? When you see a peacock  teaching                                                    more about pride. You can think, thinking  to...

Premium Member Competing For Satan's Love
I’m a racist, you’re a racist, life looks racist too and one more proof that all are sinners (tainted through and through). Even babies fear a stranger (cling to mama’s skirt); inborn, we’re trained, or raised by parents with imperfect love? Categories plague our species; souls (smeared black with dirt) we dare to protest (in our stupor), wear Christ like...

Competing Spirits
Competing spirits move about seeking a patron, loyal scout, trailing branches down wooded road with blessed prod or cursed goad. Tempting teens on a risky route competing spirits move about. Looking, lead in a lustful way mean spirits look for waves to sway. Guarding with a license divine safe spirits shield a tender vine. Competingspirits move about guiding, girding the naïve sprout. Until the forests...

Premium Member Competing Roads To Peace
History, one of the Muses, like Music, and Poetry, and Liturgical FireCircle Dance, and Regenerative Design, offers three types of fertility/bereavement stories: Yangy War stories, Yinnish Peace stories, And everything in-between life and death, Hybrids of diverse creative and degenerative tensions struggling with and against each Other. War stories remind us no one is special dead. Peace stories reweave us Everyone is uniquely special called and challenged fully alive In-between stories restore and destroy special...

Premium Member Competing Cooperative Archetypes
Everyday games we play grow productive successes and over consuming failures. Every day and night we try to reduce RightWing dominant overproduction LeftSoul underconsumption, Gap growing devolution of bilateral failing anti-invitation. Every mutual distrusting day quick fix addiction fuels competitive co-dependency. Every cooperative night constrains rabid Lose to Lose competitions spiraling monstrously inhumane growth of toxic tumors, rumors of mutually whispered mendacity. Every day amplifies chronic stress in between successful productions and all-consuming capitalized failure to...

Premium Member Growing Competing Anxieties
What is the best available treatment for cancerous climates of anxiety? Well, imagine you were born in a USA time and place when we knew only one retributive model of justice, both internal theological punishment for being merely mortal and external anti-ecological. Now imagine you live in a Win/Win time and place wherein Restorative Justice Peace Warriors are also PermaCulturing Designers of natural landscapes, internal and...

Premium Member Losing My Competing Minds
A mind, I think, should be a brain still in a living organic body in homeostatic normative relationship. A human mind could become mid-sized, just right, and left, not too hot, not too cold, not too light, not too dark and heavy, yet sometimes too complexly dense with chaos theories rather than synergetic creolizing hypotheses favoring thermodynamically ego/eco-balancing biosystems, relying on double-binding feedback loops of endosymbiotic cooperativity within ectosymbiotic acclimations without, maintaining...

Premium Member Competing In Tough Love Markets
We often think of how best to compete in a very tough love market. How to look and smell and sound our healthiest and highest commodified use to attract the interest of others with both similar and diverse sight and hearing and fragrance of trusting radically profound beauty; A hot package but also with a warm compassionate and curiously nimble heart. Love's core of becoming co-arises truths with...

Premium Member Competing Voices
When two or more Yang Dominants are in the same room, noticing each other, it may be time to leave that room. We have issues curtailing our co-arising competition to reveal who can win our CoElational Wealth Game. All Yang-voices inside and outside clamoring EgoSapiens hungry for EcoRights optimizing Elational AnthroLight, a smile of Namaste recognition, we know each other from inside compassion now, yet only unusually from...

Competing
It’s nice to win a contest. I know I, for one, have tried; But I read about one recently In which the winner died. Some folks think if something’s risky That the glory’s more intense, Which is why they may take chances When a contest makes no sense… Like the one on Broward County: Eating roaches was its goal; And the winner, thirty-two years old, Thought...

Competing For You
I know you can't see me And my appearance you barely see. Striving for your attention, is like being lost at sea. You can't find me on the map or you compass. Because being with you, I know its justs being traceless. You know I always care about you and wonder when your sad. So what not give the feeling...
