Just another voice a crying

[oldwolf]

Hey now, is any one still listening

- there are times like I feel like I'm pissing into the wind. Splatters of ideas gone awry; concepts that give me fire, fallen onto flinty ground. And within that, I recognize that the common denominator be me.

Striving on are we - no I be not alone, but all too few are we . Getting equipment to do the work of many by few, while it helps to see the progress, also means that the debt load grows for those who may follow, and inherit the lacks that were present during what preceded.

And while we are not about to give up and are putting yet more effort into bringing to fruition - yet the time may come when we say enough - let us take the fruits of our labors and spend them where they will lead to more returns - a different clime - looking to find those of more like mind - and traveling; taking back a lost love for all now involved, that has been put on hold while we labor in this field of dreams and visions a manifesting.

At present we are but 3 and one is from out of country, and during these paranoid times, permission from the powers that be is something that is hard to come by - and we must learn to use the wording they find acceptable, to put it forward in such a fashion as to not stymie our efforts to come together for this Work.
All along the proposition has been put forth that quality is far better than quantity - ... but still to labor for the sake of the labor does grow old and to not find those willing to lay hold the traces leads to feelings that mayhap this be not the time and place - maybe it is time to cash it in and finance the open wings to soar beyond and above what we thought was part of ours to give, to find new areas more fulfilling.
Thankfully for any who may yet come along - that we can pass on this Work of making this wondrous place a blessing for those that partake - a place to slake the thirst and refresh the Spirit, an example of what can be done in following the natural cycles and aiding the flow instead of pushing forth our will without Seeing and giving revernce and blessingd to our Connections to All - thankfully more stubborn people you would be hard pressed to find. And we grip the shovel anew and put forth what sometimes seems a herculean effort.
Will it Be ? That I cannot say, but it will not be for lack of trying - though it may die on the vine before the time of fruition - it will not be because those involved spared themselves the effort.

Ach you say what stirered him up - from one who seldom now is heard from, comes a flow that appears at first glance to be a pressing of sour grapes.

But you see - there is no blame. Ours is only to Do that which we See is ours to Do.

And when we find that those that we work to build it for have no desire for what costs us dear - sometimes we must look deep and go West - spread our wings and fly - shake the dust from our feet and move on.

This is a given in life. Not all seeds cast on the ground will be fruitful. Our Blessing in this will be the bond we share, the pride of Doing that which called to us to Do, not measured by the concept of success or failure of the project, but what was garnered in the process.

The constant always is and has been Change. And when Change is upon us, those that will not listen will be left behind. New paradigms will proceed on, whether the masses listen or not. The efforts of those that strive to aid in the labor bringing it into being, is often left unnoticed when the Chaos the Change brings is what becomes the focus of most. But the effort must be made. And the Blessing is in the Doing.

Can you hear us calling you - there is Work aplenty and fellowship that slakes the thirst for those weary of the meaningless sterility of what passes as Existence for way too many. Choices must be made, we all come to that which we have called to ourselves by our own actions or lack thereof. The Connection we come to feel with each other and the Work, the Blessings the Earth Mother gives to us with Her thanks for being there with and for her - defies my own ability to put into words.


So, having written this, shall I post it so that it be plain what kind of madman I Be.

Sure - why not ?


Blessing to you all as we all grow on, whether willing particpants or no, to the coming of us all to a Wholeness beyond what these time have thus far been offering.

Grow On ..... - Enjoy !

Hi Old Wolf,
I just joined Forums 30 minutes ago-trying to find a guy named busgypsy who may or may not still be living in a Sedona RV Park for Hippies (Hawkeye)..so now have been perusing the forums--hopeing to read -maybe participate- in some meaningful discussions--or, at least, read some uplifting rants or heart-openings--and I walked in your door.
Somehow finding an echo to my own saddness with this mass consciousness that surrounds us..apathetic, complacent, unimaginative and spiritually barren. I too echo your own 'cry' perhaps in this time our Hearts are in need of perpetual Opening--as the valves have indeed, seem to now show wear (that were so light and hopeful in the 60s and 70s)--from the constant opening and closing--like so many faucets--like so many idealistic promises gone astray--like so many abandoned flower adorned buses along I-10 or I-40 or I-90--with dusty copies of Be Here Now--their pages fluttering in the wind or partially eaten by hungry moths and field mice..
So we keep trusting--we still plant gardens and hear the voice of Chief Seattle and Thoreau and Yogananda--wondering-despairing-hopeing--but always in a small arena of paradox and anitithesis--the Truth shall set you Free--we do want to be surprised constantly with a spontaneous smile-a hug- a kyndred knowing-Deja-view--and always a familiar note of Jimi's stratocaster or a verse from Janis--always playing in our ears...and always the laughing maddness of Tim and the hardworking Ram Dass...
I hear your cry--all the way from Finger Lakes,NY to the Verde Valley-AZ..Good Morning
Hey I just turned 54 on the 10th and last week saved two little boys from drowning--yes we are supposed to be here--if only to just BE Here!
Peace

Lionheart and Mamamoon,

Thank you for your heartfelt response - all than and more than I hoped - sometimes in living in the Now we lay aside hope to Be Here and realize that it was not something we needed to discard to be in the present. Despair also went out the window, though there are times when the unresponsiveness leads one to uproot and seek elsewhere, even far from these realms.

Each one of us draws to ourselves the lessons we need to grow -... but the barreness of substance in this culture and the desire without the acting on and Doing, leaves us not sure just what lessons the culture (LOL) at large is drawing to the mass consciousness, that as long as we dwell on this planet in this time we are part of it in a default setting unless we bestir ourselves and focus our energy enough to create an Isle apart - even as we leave a tendril to help others find a Way to communicate through with and in the Heart.

And yes there are so many crying and needy but somehow instead of Doing they wait for "IT" to come to them - not realizing that they are there own Creators of their very own alternative realities which gives us the energy to Be and actually reach out to others hoping to find kindred spirits.

My own connection with communities started early and continues - searching for kindred spirits to share space and entrust our efforts to when the nomad calls and we must follow, the heart is calling for Change ever anew again -...

We build to pass it on and start anew - with intent. Eventually the very small core group that every endeavor attracts will grow to have enough "mass" to create a place set aside for all to come to when they Open themselves enough to reach out and Know that there Are others who share their visions. A Waysharing place as we all continue Living, Learning, Moving into Change - ...Growing.

Loved going to your site - and have only scratched the surface - but it's raining here - again and again - the jungles are moving North - but because work on and with the land is limited - something else constructive and spirit feeding is turned to for sustenance.

Once upon a time I used to peruse this site much more but ever there is much to be done and time and effort must be turned to the Doing - or it don't get done.

But we all need some small reasurrances now and then that there are indeed kindred spirits out there - and there Are some really neat and wonderful people herein who Are Doing - some of whom keep their own Doing only in Actions and speak not of it - but they are present none-the-less.

Blessings to you both and the enclave back in the Spirit Mountains where living is Being in contact with our Connections (my heart also is still in the high dessert - enchanted and thirsting for that stripping bare to Spirit that space brings on - would not be surprised had we met in that far distant time -was out there in the 70's on the wings of the Seeker).

May your lives be full and Wholeness be yours.

We enhance the quality of Existence

Ahh Old Wolf--a comfort to discover a kyndred Spirit. just a thought then I must go water the garden--going to be 98 today--so don't want our Jalapenos and tomatoes to bend overbeneath the August Arizona Sun.
Yes--what MammaMoon and I have discovered is the total loss of Tribal Consciousness--and yes, the all to prevalent--gettin and not doin. They (the establishment)used to say We were the Me Generation--if that included ending wars, creating music, art, ethics, morality-respect for Gaia and Native Indigineous humans-animals-and so forth--than ME must have been them..Stepford Mentors!!LOL
I found MammaMoon 6 years ago on Hippieland.com personals--I was in New Mexico and she Maine--just friends--nothing serious--2 year lag and then we connected again--me Colorado she still in Maine--I packed up my 79 Dodge Van (Rose) and headed for Maine (LobsterLand)--we eventually bought a 2 story Victorian (White-of course--later to be Mango and Turquoise trim)..stayed 2 years--shoveled more snow then I had ever seen and paid the Pharoah for copious amounts of heating Oil--cold-cold-ahh-so cold_-burrrrrrrr). Sold the house, bought a 79 Dodge Apache Class C (Nandi) and came back to my home-Arizona. Here we are!!! All wood inside-no Plastic Man!! and now we have 2 1979 vehicles-that run well and fine---a garden (Salsa Garden)--reduced our living expenses 78.6%--and are happier than ever...
It wasn't a risk to downsize, it was TIME!
In our 50's it is time to start going within-diluting distractions-and upping the vibe--personal and within our hearts. Tuning In--Dropping Out--AGAIN!!
Turning On to Truth and Love.
Yes-to get back to the thread (I'm a Leo)..sorry...
Without tribal systems--'this is this' and 'that is that' becomes distorted--lies acceptable, deception tolerable, vocabulary and education taken for granted ,wars tolerated, food wasted, water polluted...because there are no ashram rules for the masses..no family support systems, initiations, vision quests, wise uncles and aunts, herbalism, naturalism, deep spiritual connection to the Universe...and our Hearts--my how they hurt when we accidently see the news-hear of sorrowful stories and the plights of millions.....Buddha must have been right...Jesus cries..Gandhi fasts.....and the Sioux continue to drink and the Navajo and Cheyenne continue to dance a lost dance...
I might have been totally stoned in the 60s but I seem to remember that Ravi Shankar brought us a new resonance..we loved without embarassment and spoke out on injustice, inhumanity and lived by tribal reasoning and humanistic systems...ahhh too Utopian?
Yes--we had 500,000 at Woodstock and another 500,000 at the same time in other parts of the country and world joining hands and hearts--a million could have continued the momentum OldWolf..1/2 went underground in the 80's the other 1/2 cut their hair and put back on their bras and went back into the extablishment--Ye of so little faith--yes--(you do also pass SUVS with dreamcatchers on the mirrors--those who have lost their dream and hope to catch it?--NAW--not that deep)--for the real dreamcatchers are hung above babies cribs to catch bad dreams and nightmares NOT to show some New Age affiliation with the Native American...
At the end of the day MammaMoon and I listen to the quiet. watch the beautiful pallette of our Zinnias and Sunflowers--listen to the creek run by Nandi our RV..smoke a gret--and Hope to meet folks like you--maybe just a few more in our Hearts..to keep that Dream alive..words--Doin It--Bein It--
Feelin It--taking a big breathe and moving ever forward.
Don't Despar OldWolf--the choices have always been there for the masses! Just keep putting that out I guess--or maybe they Love pain and suffering--oh well--I take reincarnation seriously--LOL!
Maybe email would be better..don't want to bore your other folks..
Rain--Jungles in New York--yeah I hear that man--Mamma and I stopped in Woodstock and Bethel on the way here from Maine--we really had a great time! sort of a pilgrimage..glad we did it..Upstate New York is Beautiful!
Peace

Hey Old Wolf,

You know me, I'm one who would rather do things her ownself. We, too, have tons and tons of land work just waiting for us in the queue. Sometimes, we'd like a little bit of help, though it has always worked out for us according to the old saying; "If you want something done right, it's best to do it yourself."

But, we liked you place, and wish you well in realizing your dream.

Sam

It is a fine game that denies gravity -
that game within oneself and in nature,
Where the world is without questions,
where life itself is the answer -
where to act is the only law,
and experience the reward.

[oldwolf]

You know, I've been so much a part of that philosophy - "Do it", "Walk that talk", "you don't do it nobody probably won't either" (nah that's just my own serendipity).
And I live by it and "build it and they will come".
Have a challenge though - you see if it's just for me then i be wasting my time 'ceptin for the learnin experience. The whole aim for a long long time has been community and without that - just rather be a nomad blowin in the wind
Time may well come when that dream manifests - the nomad one (as in *Wending our Way*) but would still rather leave a few communities blossoming on in the wake - just my own personal take on what I want in my own life

[HoneySuckleBlue]

I always thought I wanted to be in a small community of like minded people or off living on my own in the woods...

Till recently and my first home happened to me, now I find myself being drawn out into this mainstream community of mine. I am begining to see in my quiet walking and shining amidst these alien people so deadened to what is going on around them that there are those that are not quite gone but looking for that brightness, trying to find one reason to make them stay awake and aware.

Then I run into others like myself not many, one here one there and we shine together and other people see this and slowly it changes the dynamics of a town with out anyone really doing anything but being what they are, where they are to the best of their ability.

I'm sure your waystation will take off when you least expect it,lol, that's the way things that I want to happen always happen:)

Praise wet snow
falling early.
Praise the shadow
my neighbor's chimney casts on the tile roof
even this gray October day that should, they say,
have been golden.

Praise

the invisible sun burning beyond
the white cloud sky, giving us
light and the chimney's shadow.

Praise

god or the godds and goddesses, the unknown,
that which imagined us, which stays
our hand,
our murderous hand,
and gives us

still,
in the shadow of death,
our daily life,
and the dream still
of goodwill, of peace on earth.

Praise

flow and change, night and
the pulse of day.

-Denise Levertov-

I just went out in our October day and harvested more tomatoes and chilis from our garden--a wee garden for two--a wee patch of life and living--a wee patch giving us such joy this summer--as seed becomes flower becomes vegetable becomes sustanence--becomes energy-becomes compost becomes and becomes and becomes.
The land always knows what it needs--what it loves.
Wee energy for such a wee patch--all I could handle this year--and I had much help from the elementals, birds, earthworms, lizards and wonderful flowing water.
Many Blessings!

Just shinning my little light in to say hello and tell you how blessed I feel to able to be here and be part of something turning/changing..I belive we all have something to offer in our own way..we are just waiting for the opertunity to do so.. we may not always know what the CREATOR wants us to do..but we have to do something.. or we are lost..we'll lose the light.. and the painting will be distorted.. get in touch with your god/self and go forward and teach and learn and pay it forward..Blessed Be

[Lionheart2000]

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
And whispered in the sounds of silence.

Peace and Love to all you Wayfarers and Voices...

Where have all our friends gone--like flowers in the wind? Where have all the flowers gone..long time passing!

Shakespeare Sonnet CXLIII.

Lo! as a careful housewife runs to catch
One of her feather'd creatures broke away,
Sets down her babe and makes an swift dispatch
In pursuit of the thing she would have stay,
Whilst her neglected child holds her in chase,
Cries to catch her whose busy care is bent
To follow that which flies before her face,
Not prizing her poor infant's discontent;
So runn'st thou after that which flies from thee,
Whilst I thy babe chase thee afar behind;
But if thou catch thy hope, turn back to me,
And play the mother's part, kiss me, be kind:
So will I pray that thou mayst have thy 'Will,'
If thou turn back, and my loud crying still.

Loving you All:
LionHeart

[oldwolf]

Wandering the hills inside
A knocking on the door was heard
But the attention was elsewhere
Not that you were far from my mind
And you and you and you too


Changing ........ - ain't we all though
Alone times , a Blessing held dear
Sometimes I feel that I would like to stay
But I Know that the reclusive life is only temporary - this time


Where do we go from here
god only knows my dear
For me this is what synchronicity is about
To come up in the present and show a direction to be taken

Sometimes I feel as if a small breath is all I need to disperse me
Like a low lying fog on the the moors
as the spring defrosts the frozen ground


Sometimes I wonder that I am still here
And sometimes I ask if I really am

So though I be gone a little while
Know ye that I'll be back

Love draws and wants to be shared
Even those we may call the demon breed
Are part and parcel of us All

And from One to the other Love calls

[Lionheart2000]

King of the Pond.

In Sunna's dawn resplendent hue,
perched high upon the breeze blown reed.
Who's subjects would do well to heed,
a glinting flash of green and blue,
lone despot without retinue.
Leaps skywards now for morning feed,
most deft of every airborn deed.
Goes first of all the wyrms that flue'
prime offspring of the water wight
and nymphs born of the tranquil spring.
Transformed he hovers now in flight,
Humming on translucent wing.
Here views his realm from lofty high,
then waits for what the day will bring.

Seeing with the minds eye, the movie the goes round and round in your head.
Your movements flowing as the willows swaying with the wind.
Holding the key to the sight of the city of inner being that dwells in the pulse of light
Beconning us to join and mingle in the eternal energy of being.
We cast ourselves down into the womb of life transforming into a butterfly of the fleah
Feelings ontop of feelings flash, ignighting the Spirit that drives us unto our destiny
Ever shearching for that connection that makes us part of the Whole of Being.
To see without eyes, to know without partisapating, to know with out knowing,
Just the seeing of it is enough to understand the picture that is being played
Who will play the role of the fool when I am gone.
If I am to go, where will I sing my song
If I am to stay, who will listen.
Once in the knowing will there be peace
Will the pictures cease.
Am I to hide the truth or shall I hide in the truth.
Once told, the story does unfold.
We that have walked before, we of Old.
What of the truth went untold.
Could we walk the center of being and still come out whole.

The Road

………….

Rock by rock,
and stone by stone,
each removed from the drive,
while going home.

Standing with the sweat rolling down my face.
Muscles acknowledging the work at hand.
Wind gently blowing.
Birds singing.
Squirrels chattering.

Cuddling up beside the moment.
I heard your sonnet inside your breath.
Love was inside without words.
We are as one
You and I, and you, and you,
And the work we do.

For all who share of like minds,
There is peace.
Where the truth sits beside the trust,
Unforgotten.
Remembrance calls my name.

Alone, and by your side
Have we not come so far
Each one, reborn upon the hill.
Mountains speak forth.

Tis healing that we came this far.
Healing of the body, heart, and soul.
Healing of the mind

Where thoughts take us into
The moments
And asking who are we.

While love calls out
With one gentle embrace.
“Loving you”,
was all the work did say.
Loving you this time.

[Lionheart2000]

Within You and Without You
The Beatles

We were talking - about the space between us all
And the people - who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse of truth - then it's far too late - when they pass away
We were talking - about the love we could all share - when we find it
To try our best to hold it there - with our love
With our love - We could save the world - if they only knew
Try to realize it's all within yourself no-one else can make you change
And to see you're really only very small, and life flows on
wit-hin and wit-hout you
We were talking - about the love that's gone so cold and the people,
Who gain the world and lose their soul - then you may find,
pea-ce of mind, is waiting there
And the time will come when you see we're all one, and life flows on within and without you

poem I found on a bathroom wall.

I found this on the wall of a bathroom years ago and it helped put things into perspective for me.:

THE WANDERER
By Anon.

I am not homeless,
My home is the whole of the World.

I am not poor, for God has shared
everything in creation with me.

I am not down trodden,
for I have the freedom to
choose which responsabilitys
affect me.

Do Not Pitty Me!
I have found what you are still seeking.

Hey Voided,
So glad to read your comments--right on and so true. Perhaps we all need to start getting on the same wavelength again..and try to (once again)--come together and re-unite in an uncommon and higher reality/consciousness. Tis true this country is once again asleep....letting Godzilla trample through our sensitivities and perceptions...if we do not give form to Godzillas reality and stay focused on our own we can help create a better world--right? Creating one within us and then sharing. Re-inventing--nope its all ready invented..I feel--just needs to be improved.
Would like to help?
Larry McClurg contacted me last week about a 60s Revival/Reunion called PeaceFest 2007 (Goodstock) where all the ole hippies can come together and leave a legacy--another message of Peace, Love and Unity...of course all are welcome that do not bring violence. We are just forming comittees and boards...structure-you know (ick-gotta have the structure-LOL!).
We need help Void 37--and everyone on OldWolfs Forums (Hip Forums) to manifest this event.
Here is the first letter in its infancy...we will be updating as we evolve.
Peave, Love and Pancakes
LionHeart
(P.S. Old Wolf--we will be contacting you after the Solstice--we know you are busy with the energies there and Aerial is writing beautiful verse and preparing as well--Love to You and your Vision)


From Larry McClurg:
I am looking for 60s bands (and others individuals) to be in a music festival called (Goodstock) PeaceFest 2007..we are still deciding on the name.
The concept is a baby, only in its fourth week, with a target date 2 years from now.
You are invited to participate.

So far I have contacted bands from nearly every state. The response is tremendous.
Word spread from coast to coast, and the gathering is growing in leaps and bounds as a grass roots effort takes over. 50 to 60 bands say "yes" they will play depending on location and date.
Originally the festival was meant for any 60s garage band, meaning they never became nationally known, but it soon evolved into inviting any 60s or 70s musician, whether famous then, now, or never, as agents and more well known bands began to hear of it and wanted their bands to play.
Even further, in the fourth week, it becomes apparent we may have some of the original musicians 'staff', poets, philosophers, and so on, from Woodstock 69 will join us. We are now including spiritual healers and shamans--philosophers, authors, artists and magicians...the list is almost endless...beings that embody the spirit of the 60s and want to activate the energy anew.

There are a series of steps to accomplish before moving on and giving concrete assurances to all involved. I havent addressed money, lodging, and equipment because it was premature and none of the bands has mentioned it yet, but when the time comes the intention is to compensate everyone to the fullest extent possible.
The festival is not to make money.It is purely a work of love. Not intended to duplicate Woodstock 69, it is yet another spiritual gathering of the same generation, legitimate in its own right.

The basic plan is to set up a PeaceFest Village for a week, where people can park RVs , campers, tents, anything.
We want to also include the Native American, Hispanic, Hawaiian, Asian and African American's as well as Rastafarians as a true voice of Unity for us all. Manifesting a dialogue of Peace.
The village is a place to mingle while vendor and healer kiosks provide needed items, memorabilia and healing modalities.
Scattered through the Village are multiple stages where bands will play 24/7, other groups will put on theatre, or other events.
At the end of the week there will be one BIG show

We are looking for sponsors now and a location, and working on every aspect to make it so simple and easy for the bands all they have to do is pack some clothes and come. The real decision to play has not been made..
It can't be till time and place are determined. For now, all we need to know is would you join us, if date and location fit your schedule?

[oldwolf]

Often we get asked if what we seek to focus on is that which Is really ours to Do.

Seeing as we are committing our lives to this endeavor just how much will we hold back toward not putting all of our energy into making it happen.
Yah seems like ywe must make the 'leap of faith' and hope and pray that after taking the step out into the void where there seems to by naught but air to receive the step (ah ever the fool) that somehow the landing is syuch that we can carry on and\or at least be shown where our opportunities for Growth, Now lay.
Above all a good sense of humor is mandated - so many times our saving grace is our ability to laugh at ourselves - how we make things Big and small - our priorities - how blind we were not to See the Way in front of us.
And the list goes on.... But all the while working and striving to make the dreams we attach our fire - our driving force in life to manifest - make those things a reality - to draw to ourselves the Lessons we need to Grow and go Beyond into yet greater Awareness.

Now a small message to those who have not yet been able to visit. Know that you Are in out hearts. We do Not exclude. We feel that the resonances will show where the harmonies lay and If committed to Growing - the Work - helping evoke from within our own and other higher Self - the Being continuing from manifestation to the next - A Coming to Wholeness from Within (- not to be confused with saving - the only one who can save me is me - and you is you).
I know in my heart that the great time apart, where for some reason those of likemindedness have found gathering together difficult, is drawing to a close and we must come together to make the great leap to the next world when thae opportunity presents itself - to go Beyond.
Because our Work is helping all evoke and polish their individual Awarenesses and Connections - we always strive to Awaken to greater Awarenesses and help hold open the Ways for others to Open to the remembrace of All that they Are.
And unless the message, the people and the land all speak to you - how can you give of yourself to manifest. But our times of sharing and Honoring our Connections is Nigh - we must open One to the Other and Join with All in Wholeness - yeah while yet maintaining our individualities. We are open to join and help reaise the vibrations to 'higher'Awareness - - and Grow On !

Ach....... either you Know whereof I speak, from the resonances, or I be but someone to ignore.
Blessings to All along their Ways

[Lionheart2000]

Hello Oldwolf and Void37..
Such wonderful thoughts--its nice to dialogue with folks trying to come from their Higher Selves--means we have done our work this lifetime--ahh but then it does, indeed, continue.
I agree this is totally "iwannabehipforums' but seek and you shall find...and then we grow, listen, reach out, inspire others to feel safe to express themselves without masks and without cloaking!!

Two Wolves

One evening by the campfire, an old Cherokee chief told his grandson
about a battle that goes on inside every person.

He said," My son, the battle is between two wolves that are inside us all.
One is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The
other is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence,
empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith".

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his
grandfather: "Which wolf finally wins?"

The old Cherokee wisely replied,
"The one you feed."

Oh yes--if you can cop any Stephen Gaskin books..get em..read em..also Tim Leary and Ram Dass...we have them on our site..or just go to the AmazonCorporateputmomandpopcoolbookstoresoutofbusi nessinyourtown."

Heya Void,
In no way did I take your post negative.
I am a fairly infrequent responder - especially when the weather permits work on the land - which it has not for many many moons now - we had almost 2 months of comparative dry and it has been much appreciated - but also meant that my own attention is very much on the land.

I write in generalities, in no way suggesting that people join with this individual atempt unless they feel in their heart it is right for them .
Most of the "doers" are doing - have their own projects and agendas and are busy manifesting. Many are the Paths - about as many as there are individuals - aye ?
I wish all well along their way and let all know the door is open - whether to visit or take a retreat to gather inside for the next go round with the world at large or possibly to come and stay a while to help the dream manifest or stay and make their own come true here or whatever.
We all just do our best with what we're given and sometimes find synchronicity works so as to open doors between enegies resonating in harmony to work together to manifest dreams both of individuals and of group.

Thank you Lionheart and Mamamoon I hope and pray that our own time of sitting across from each other is nigh - I miss you more than words can say - yah is true - one day my friends.....

Loving One and All
Blessings along your Way

OldWolf,
Yes--I feel you toiling to make a hearth for the "Waysharers"---to chop wood and carry water. It is a "yoga" in each moment "zen retrospective and vision"-a constant paradox that makes us laugh, makes us weep.

For is it not your Home that you open the door wide? Is it not truly your Heart that calls out to the disenchanted, disenfranchised, disheartened--and the inspired, open-hearted, spiritual seekers that you feel, in your Soul, to offer the generosity of your land and forest you steward?

Will the Solstice embrace your effort?, the elementals, six-legged, winged, and four-legged that you breath and live with--the unexpected flower that pops up where no flower has been..the fruition of toil--the harvesting of Love--Gaia is there to embrace your efforts, the Sun, The Moon and the host of clouds dancing, drifting and falling with needed rain.

Be of good cheer as we are when planting our gardens here in the desert..small and minimal but the sustenance we derive is unspeakably abundant from such very little ground in the reality of "materialism" and "capitalism."

It is our Souls that are nourished by our unconditional and joyful seva and will follow us into Valhalla or higher bardo states...its our Path to not look for reward or recognition--tis reward enough in the 'Doing" with Joy--or if not with Joy--then not at all!!

But then, I could be mistaken...Oh well--we Love You lets have Tofu Cheescake with fresh blackberries on top...and watch for an Orange Flicker or perhaps a Nuthatch--so sweet they are.

Peace, Love and Pancakes
LionHeart

heya void,

Yah gotta realize that I have a bit of a geas laid on me to finish with this before I get to move on - so I work hard every day the weather allows work to get it where it moves on without me.... As I spread my wings to fly on, visit with friends made held so dear - yeah mary and mamamoon and lion heart and many more through the years if we can but find them and those we dear likeminded souls that keep us going with their own dedication ...

So I'm not on this here contraption all too often - winter finds me waxing more loquacious.
Yah need a place to get away or just wanta see how we're still making it happen - crank her up and head on out here - there be more than enough work for you and a felling of contentment and joy as we build for the Growing of us.
See you round the campfire as we circle round - -

.... no stranger to you - just too damn busy ...- any one not got any thing better to do help is always appreciated and the blessing is ever in the Giving as we all Grow on - sometimes in spite of ourselves
