I finished reading Sharon Blackie's Enchanted Life yesterday.
Kind of a How To Do It,
a how to fix BusinessAsUsual textbook
organically rooted in animism,
I suppose a theologist
and maybe an enchanted ecologist,
might duly note
Although animists are not distracted, usually,
by systematic theologian theories and conjectures
about becoming resilient sacred healthy wealth.
Animists are more practical theologians,
learning by dynamically doing
cooperative relationships
and mutually respectful reflections
on these sacred communions,
and sometimes even competitive eco-relationships
competing with MotherEarth's sense of revolutionary timing
to build our richest sufficient space
as resiliently and fluidly as possible.
Practical theology,
like good pastoral theology,
like good non-violent communication
and being healthy climate manifest
and becoming wealthy destiny
and doing dynamic health/wealth skill sets,
is about how we are each called
to fix pathology,
to live every green enchanting day
by cooperatively communicating to restore
full benign being communion
and revolutionary becoming
and polypathic doing
bicamerally ego/eco
left/right
yang/yin
polynomial/polycultural
natural/spiritual practically speaking
as we make everyday bilateral choices
for our own and for our grandchildren's enchanted thinking
and animist feeling,
seeing 2020 through both global and local EarthJustice lenses.
I do feel a little more positive
glimpsing ecstatic hope
by actively seeking enchanting justice pathways
ego-homeless
in a pilgrim journalist kind of way,
longing to fully be Here with Now,
Space with Time communal
YangResilient with YinResonant co-relational
By resonating with nature's robust spirit
investing in wildly evolving forests,
boundary areas,
WinWin frontiers of blissful everyday eco-centeredness
chasing rainbows,
musical octaves,
fractured fractals,
safely enchanted in and on,
with and for, EarthJustice
Enchantment entitling first through last lived chapters,
limned by resilient
resonant
revolving nightdreams.
Most Baby Boomers started out hoping to leave life
having continued our Great ReGenerativity,
progressively recycling boundless growth
of optimal Win-Wealth is also Win-Health.
We are the last human generation
with confidence we could leave more than we have taken in.
To give back,
to pay forward
investment in Earth's cooperative health and safety insurance,
re-assurance.
In this early post-millennial era,
we have a great transitional dissonance
between those who continue believing it is merely realistic,
rationally nihilistic,
to give up on this hopelessly disconnected
non-renewable
non-inheritable dream,
already not accessible to human nature's consciousness
of internal and external climate disruptions.
And, on the other hand,
there remain those of relentless active faith
that we are here at this time,
invested in this transitional moment,
increasing Win/Win potential
transforming short- and long-term
evolving compassionate lifetimes
To learn from Father Sun's warming voice of Wind
to balance healthy consumption
with wealthy production
of perennial renewables
To listen
for life's relentlessly springing up reinvestment
opportunities,
not lifetime for ignoring Win v Lose waste,
risking positive neuro-energy's potential peacetime resources.
As we turn from seeking regenerative integrity
for the span of one humanely natural generation,
toward the span of one humane-divine
MotherEarth FatherSun prime co-relational life span,
old monotheistic WinWe v LoseThey issues,
flying under banners of nationalistic narcissism,
fade into the waste stream of survival of the bullyist
More synergetically renewed by a new EarthTribal cooperative ownership,
a self-with-other Win/Win democratizing
inter-religious identity
nurturing caregiving Light
and receiving Power
Healthy compassion
with all organisms not pathologically hoarding wealth
of divisive nations,
of dissociated egos,
as this new Left with Right
double-binding
ego/eco-intelligence
for evolving renewable lifetime opportunities
and compassionately deniable risks of addiction
to anthropocentric narcissism.
Sound is vibration
begets round sound,
random noise,
white nuances,
dark soulful nights,
symphonic nests,
harmonic intersections
Organic macrolife is self and other,
ego and eco, empowerment
begets unvoiced
prevoiced
voiced
revoiced
nonvoiced enculturing love
choice
For love is God's great goddess power
begets compassion between faithful passion tribes
of trees,
toads,
turtles,
thistles,
thunder,
testimonies,
civil teas
Regenerating energy
resounding vibrant co-relational
responsive co-passions
responsible correlations
In-between rhythms
vibrating round patterned sound
of EarthDay powers
of light systemic synergy.
A troubled man held a dark guarded secret
Deep in a closet of his mind for years on end
No one knew this hidden in his anxious soul
Expect a long-trusted confidant and close friend
But secrets are difficult to put under lock and key
It’s like putting a leash on the strongest hurricane
Secrets can break out as one who seeks to be free
Yet, constantly pursued and divined by the suspicious
A great fear lingers in a troubled fortified mind
Especially that of a guarded holder of the hidden
Will the secret ultimately break free and thusly find
Itching ears that belong to the malicious and evil kind
It’s sad when the secret is stripped of shelter and cover
By a confidant and friend who proves guilty of vile abuse
For whom else could make one’s soul cringe and shudder
When by a trusted one the secret is unclothed and laid bare
Secrets are vulnerable to one’s inner weaknesses
And the ambitions of those of devious minds and nefarious goals
Those who desire to be spotlighted on the world’s stage
Boldly telling the secrets of a friend sworn to be untold
Gains from such misuse of relational trust can offer fame
May grease the palms of those who develop such evil schemes
But the yields are hard to justify or condone what’s been done
When the curtain of life comes down on an exposed and destroyed soul
I sense that these are testing times with forecasts of better seasons.
I hope that I am not confusing, but I'm simply musing about a season
destined to be changed forever and for the good. Surely, methinks it is not
the worst of times because things could get a whole lot worse. Neither is
it the best of times because things could be a whole lot better. Perhaps
it is a prelude and a time of preparation for better things just beyond the
horizons. I see the dark clouds and feel the heavy winds, but have yet to
hear and feel the roar of destructive funnel twistings. Allow me to muse
about the possible prelude to and the prospects of the best of times.
Could it indeed be a time of reflection and refreshing, a season of calm, quiet,
and closeness? Could this be a gateway of intimacy with our God who wants
to be heard by a people who are not prone to listen? Could this prospective
prelude to new norms be a 'God-send' that vanquishes the old norms laden with indifferences and contentment without Godliness? Would we not welcome
a 'new norm' ever more kind, loving, and relational? Perhaps if we look longer, pray fervently, and wait patiently, we will see the silver lining in the cloud laden with a Presence of God unseen or experienced in our lifetime.
These, therefore, are my musings of faith, hope, promise, and love. As the world begins to thaw from the CORONA COVID-19 freeze, opening up itself step by cautious step, may we not stagger, staring at the little picture without beholding the bigger picture. And as Christians, may we not fall short of opening our hearts to a world drifting into ever deeper waters and falling ever further from God.

What would it take
to understand
a right to life
includes a right to choose well-being
or failure
for one's internal identities,
organs,
organisms?
AND
A right to choose
self-embodied empowerment,
health,
is a right to life redemptive choice
over deadening felt loss
of continuous healthy lifetime,
now present
and on through long-term future identities,
Vocations of sacred being wealth
of identity's integrity,
rooted in EarthTribe experiences,
memories collapsed from all past life-streams.
Perhaps if we reduced abortion charges
rhetoric
from self-righteous indignation against "Murderers"
to a form of relentlessly catastrophic manslaughter
no child of capitalism has not known
at least in lack of active co-investing intention,
passion to open a dialogue door
toward win/win complexly inter-connected solidarity
rediscovered within healing discernment
about who is responsible for choosing this win/lose slaughter
and who is not responsible
for lack of win/win options.
Should we actually find
at least some One innocent enough
to cast the last win/lose might makes right
evolutionary stone
aimed against the rest of us
for massive lack of win/win hope-inspiring integrity
That iconic One
radically free from transparently disvaluing vulnerable lives
and toxic choices
to slaughter part of our sacredly connected selves
Free for listening to our own shared experience
of this interdependent Earth life web,
Longing for more resilient
sure
buoyant healthy,
co-relational, without cancerous mutiny,
co-creation
liberating Earth life for slow-growing ever deeper
interdependent win/win choice,
Wherever
and whenever EarthTribe will listen to loss and gain
freedom and pain
internal yet multicultural GoldenRule voices
against throwing stones
against cooperative-intended health care
as if we and they both mattered;
Mother and child,
EarthMother and naked
vulnerable
divinely humanizing children
reborn into Earth's continuing potential
for unfragmented Paradise.
History publishes eco-political winners
and probably not mystery marginalized also-rans.
NeoCortex dominant pursuits
of growing cognitive information,
knowledge and facts,
comprehension of Earth's regenerative
and degenerative systems
and cosmological nest-network;
these objectives evolve scientific politically empowered paradigms
fueled by our collective economic investments of time and money
understanding of their relational contexts,.
All our biggest and best rational research projects
are multiculturally empowered
by anthropocentric political choices
to invest in cooperative economic promulgation relationships
of neurosystemically accessible discovery.
In this anthro-sensory enlightened market
choosing among alternative methods for comprehending
positive and negative co-relations
within an eco-politically privileged anthropocentric laboratory,
within an anthropological family,
within LeftBrain dominant articulation
of healthy-regenerative
and pathology-degenerative outcomes
within multicultural languages
a cooperatively-held paradigm of scientific method
disassociated from sacred ecological
and organically interdependent
Whole EarthTribe panentheistic
empowering and disempowering systems.
Evolution of personal and familial,
community and national
and global learning
follows a string of historically sustained
LeftBrain verbally dominant
anthropocentrically economic
and political choices
about which positive
and negative co-relationships
matter
Within our polyculturally climaxing/collapsing
Gaian Hypothesis,
and which will keep you too mysteriously
synergetically
mysteriously
intuitively
re-ligiously
sacred ecologically unpublished
and untenured
Unless you are one of the few
still eking out a living
in the indigenous wisdom
PolyTheistic
NonDualistic

bicamerally co-intelligent
ReLigious History of Mystery Department.
EarthSoul has not evolved
randomly collecting objects,
like oil producing fields
and all-consuming
deductive dominated
academic LeftBrain feasting infrastructure,
But EarthSoul revolves
within a communion of planning
and doing cooperative projects
with WinWin empowering projections.
EarthSoul mentors praying
and acting
communal subjects,
producers and consumers,
speakers and listeners,
teachers and learners
studying poly-paradigms for health empowerment,
thinking multicultural regimes and teams,
deriving new ego-eco balancing cultures,
re-inventing Left-Right
polypathic societies,
GoldenGreen polyphonic heart-beaters,
polynomial red and blue-blooded creolizing lung breathers,
Soul singers,
Nature's spirit dancers,
Sublime co-designers,
Superb mutual choreographers,
Synergetic WinWin lovers.
EarthSoul revolving liberties of gliding hawks,
evolving night comforts
of a bee
humming in resonant nest
honeyed communion
dreamscape rest.
Empathic identities plan
actively hope and pray for
communally co-embodied environments,
nested co-invested infrastructures
resiliently caring for
with
each generation's next resonantly imagined crop
of well-designed petitioners,
celebrators
voters
praisers
more than lamenters.
Praised lamentations
Razed infrastructures
Threatening paradise promises
Persistently annoying resonance.
TragediComedy
dichotomy
dipolar co-gravitation;
where and when and why
we could and should and would
dip our dic
depends entirely
on how we WinWin choose
to define and redefine this nondual dic,
and maybe His/Her Prime Relational dip.
An EarthSoul
without a wealthy sense of humor
could not serve health omnipotently,
omnipresently
omnisciently polypathic.
EarthSoul has not evolved
randomly collecting objects,
Yet continues to revolve
this communion of sacred subjects.
In this body
in which I healthy live
And, in this economic class
in which I study comparative social investments,
some more belligerently competitive,
others reassuringly warm culture cooperative,
We use these health v pathology discernment tools,
experiences,
memories,
images,
predictions,
investment histories,
to understand how we are publicly
and privately committed
to our nutrition nurturing environments
within sacred Earth,
how we secularly are with ecological relationships
violently and non-violently communicated,
competitively ZeroSum debated
and cooperatively NonZeroSum,
plus emergent ecosystemic health multipliers, discussed,
commissioned by alien transcendent, yet fragile, Divinities
communioned by and through EarthMother's
recycling strings of recombinant DNA.
In this ecologically relational
and economic health body
in which I live,
I cannot hear your communications
as irrelevant to my racial characteristics,
my financial value history
as commodified
in U.S. currency,
In liquid
and frozen
and over-heated assets
and environmental liabilities,
because these are germane to our power assessment
of me as an individual,
within a non-extended monocultural Republic,
And an extended polycultural Species,
Sharing this sacred ecological network
of interdependent organic systems
often green and brown and black
and red and blue
shades of light and shadow
multicultural sanctuary felt
and octave hues and tones remembered
as MotherEarthCentric warm moist memories,
Iconic Source
of all wombed health,
EarthMother resonant wealth
In this body
in which I live
and sometime die.
Quantities of time feel nothing.
Calculating, accumulating and subtracting,
days and weeks,
months and years and decades
roll past our eyes and ears
our growing and shrinking stomachs
to leave their strong and weak-grooved rings
of satiation and emaciation
I only feel and remember qualities of EarthTime
co-arising passions and co-gravitating pleasures
or dissonant dispassionate and painful reactions
of fear about time's future survivable qualities
anger about oppressive time's past conflicts
burning hot bright volcano hatreds
adrenaline flowing flashes
uncontrollable as suppressed bliss
only completely invested, immersed,
passionately engaged within a resiliently timeless
moment of deeply resonant quality
too seldom aware of Earth's intelligent co-present
co-passionate
co-binary sacred/organic fertility
of divinely humane grace
eternally synergetic dancing
through rationally measured quantities
of merely mortal metric times.
Sacred qualities of time's regenerate evolutions
long to feel everything belonging once again together,
beyond a foggy lapse of co-empathic solidarity
ReLigiously re-membering our golden era
co-relational peaceful qualities
richly feeding on Earth's matriarchal placentas
when all felt now-ly timeless
and originally right
feeling healthy
nurturing trusted truths
of loving kindness
feeling qualitatively good
and warm-full beauty filled.
Perhaps here lies our deeper measure
of time's healthiest meaning-full quality,
economically cooperative
and politically synergetic
and ecologically co-relational
EarthMother organically breeding
and sacredly feeding ecotherapy
Deep dancing
while surface surfing
through this timeless now
of polypathic potential win/win consciousness
Qualitative feelings positive through negative
emerging from and for and through and in and on and over each now
submerging into past speciating
branching co-passion's pleasure impressed re-memories
and dispassion's painful suppressed memories
Trees of old strong-rooted felt re-ligion
qualitatively comparing
contrasting
our original embryonic nurturing qualities
for richer eco-political sacred health
and less EarthMother dis-organic pathology
through this eternally regenerating now
quality of TaoTime's feeling peace-full
pronoia
win/win ego/eco-conscious co-passion.
