Ahead of weather, we float in the foremath, listening to wise swimmers sending ripples across the pool of thought. Saving the planet and saving ourselves; it's the same message. First gigawatt down is a game that never ends, but must be played.
How far to go in attempting to
Interrupt judgment in progress.
All are entitled to their own reality,
But not at the expense of others.
When perception becomes agenda
And realities clash with the clang of danger
It's time to show up.
A Permeable Life
By Carrie Newcomer
“I want to leave enough room in my heart for the unexpected, for the mistake that becomes knowing, for knowing that becomes wonder, for wonder that makes everything porous, allowing in and out all available light. An impermeable life is full to the edges but only to the edges. It is a limited thing, like the pause at the center of the breath, neither releasing or inviting, with no hollow spaces for longing in possibility. I would rather live unlocked and more often than not astonished, which is possible if I am willing to surrender what I already think I know, so I will stay open and companionly friendly with all that presses out from the heart, and comes in at a slant and what shimmers below the surface of things. ”To live permeably is to be open-hearted and audacious, to risk showing up as our truest self, and embracing a willingness to be astonished.”
A Permeable Life
By Renee Toplansky
I dreamt last night I was jogging with a friend. My gait was smooth and quicker than it had been in years, my breathing regular, allowing me to speak. Mirroring movement in my to date impermeable life, I see the shimmer below the surface. Turning a corner in my to date impermeable heart, I feel my eyes shift to a new direction. Opening to a new way of being, I embrace the space, love, and attention as a gift.
An unidentified relief plane appeared in my sky, arrived on my island, and airlifted me to another, safer location. Another place that feels like home. And all I have to do is live there. All I have to do is be there. And all I have to do is love there.
It’s my own journey through change that would be the obstacle. To accept that the planets can align in such a way is to let go of the fear of an impermeable future.
Perhaps what shimmers below the surface of things, is not as intangible and out of reach slippery as once thought.
Perhaps what I once thought was porous has paused its pores.
