Walking the Edge of Time

Everyone walks the changing edge of time searching for balance and justice. Humanity is an exquisite jewel that sparkles with enormous energy. Don't underestimate the power of your words. Choose happy. Every day is a good day to feel the gentle kiss of desire and imagine stories. Remember to move to music and to enjoy the sanctity of silence. You will find what you want.

Searching For Balance and Justice We Find Love

Sensuality leaves us breathless listening to the balancing beat of our hearts. We are born to realize our dreams, not to be perfect. When we depend on our strength of character, while exploring tastes of excitement, it's easy to dance with the scent of desire and touch the heart of kindness.  

Thinking sensually, we sync with music of change, while always marching to rhythms of Justice.

Justice is not political or drawn by lines on a map. It's easy to recognize. Feel justice when you communicate. Be open to rhythms of peace and beauty. Laugh more. Do what is right. Notice the balancing beat of your heart. Your energy is an important part of the sparkle of Life. There is always something to be thankful for.

At the edge of time, thinking and language change. The respected artist Mary Engelbreit Riles posted an old Ben Franklin quote, "Justice will not be served until those unaffected are as outraged as those who are." In 1777, 'outrage' was respectable. Today, ‘outrage’ is an irrational state of mind that inspires violence. Don’t let outrage deny justice. Instead, dance with your passions until they turn to wisdom. Then reply with all the power of your soul. Always move towards the light.

In the 1960’s, the great Martin Luther King Jr. said, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." The word "threat" wasn't personal in the 60's. But today the word 'threat' conjurs fear, which is why we need to find our edge. Fear is a bully. The edge is where we meet each other with equal mind and spirit. It’s where we are curiously driven to find balance, to take on more, see from a fresh perspective and have another taste of the wonder of living. Injustice is always wrong. That’s a fact.

The edge can't be corrupted. No matter what we do to it or call it, the edge is always Love.  John Lennon, who was so far ahead of his time, said, "If someone thinks that Love and Peace is a cliché that must have been left behind in the '60's, that's his problem. Love and Peace are eternal."

Love is our skill of walking the edge of time together. To be human is a ‘skill’ of sensuality and common sense. I heard a robot manufacturer talk about how hard is is to teach robots to balance on two legs. We have skills we don't know about because we take them for granted. Notice what you notice. Be authentic. Steve Jobs said, "If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking." Life is a gift of variety, opportunity and sensuality. Seeking balance is sensual thinking. Justice is where we find peace.

Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.  #MahatmaGandhi

Having a Bad Day

Everything changes. 

The simplest way to keep an open mind is to recognize that whether the glass is half-empty or half-full, more can always be added. Make the choice to be open to receive what you want, not what you fear. Trusting values is surprisingly empowering.

When you trust what you sense including that gut feeling, you stay clear about the present. When you respect your values, then, what you want becomes attainable. The future is ours to create.

Bad days happen, but they pass because things always change. Sensual thinking keeps you tuned to the big picture. Think with your senses and feel with your mind to follow rhythms of change. 

A clear perspective takes us out of ruts of habit; so we keep dancing on the floor of living. Even on bad days, we need to move with change, we need to dance. Discover new options, new dance partners and your own moves. Be the change you want to see.  

Your world is not tiny; open your eyes and your heart.  

Everybody has problems. There is the story about a group of friends who got together at Starbucks. They decide to put their problems on the table. Seeing how horrible the others' problems were, each grabbed their own back with a SOR and left. Perspective is a stress-buster.  

The big picture is always available. Sensing is how we find perspective. There is always more going on than we imagine.  Be open to the unexpected. 

• Be curious. Trust what you sense to stay alert about what matters.  
• Listen to what feels right. It's not about words, it's about values like dignity and love.

If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins. #BenFranklin

Staying clear about doing what feels right, results in good timing and good luck. Curiosity keeps options clear. Dignity is self-respect, and courage happens automatically. 

Things happen and Life is not easy. Choose for your values. The result of making hard choices to follow what feels right – no matter the criticism or loneliness– always results in self-esteem and self-respect. Amazingly, this fills our glass. 

Life is a superb and dazzlingly lighted hall, which may be reached

only by passing through a long and ghastly kitchen. #ClaudeBernard
