Premium Member Repurposing Retiring Life

Life invites deeply sacred purpose
when Love widely integrates
enlightened meaning
within co-invested minds,
passion,
from balanced bodies,
co-operating integrity
of healthy wealth's
most resilient potential

Life engaging 
deeply felt sacred mess
co-operatively owned and managed
EarthTribe clarifying purpose.

Premium Member Brighter Futures

We each have this fundamental choice
to know our mistakes as a relentless wall
oozing passions of superior severance
prohibiting successful futures
more like choosing compassion together

Rather than stuck
on the wrong side of a brick wall,
we could also choose to rediscover past mistakes 
as an uncovering web
toward a more cooperative future
less shaken apart,
less stone-walled by Win/Lose competitors,
more inviting,
even enchantedly compassionate,
regathering health toward integrity's networking wealth.

Resilient discernment
unveils
resonant, not at all dispassionate, co-discovery.

Empty,
yet pregnant,
enthymematic promising integrity
of each internal/external moment's Zen ZeroZone potential,
co-operatively LeftYang,
co-passionately RightYin,
Tao of bilateral spacetime
becoming ego/eco-resilient health webs
without prohibitive pathological walls.


The Paradox of Law

As the spirit and the flesh,
juxtaposed and jostling,
against each other,
the essence and the letter of the law,
so tussle.

Alas, when in application,
the letter of the law, 
disregards the spirit of the law;
lawfully, the law becomes libelous,
operatively, the law becomes oppressive,
willfully, those who wield the might of the law, 
become agents of oppression.

Unintentionally, the intent of the law is interred,
essentially, the essence of the law is tarnished.
