Walking the Edge of Time


Everyone walks the changing edge of time searching for balance and justiceHumanity 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

Three Ways of Patience


Have attitude like Gandhi. Live your dream like MLK. Think with your senses. Feel with your mind.  

Sensing what you value is how to think different. It's good judgment.




"The hope of a secure and livable world lies with the disciplined non-conformists who are dedicated to Justice, Peace and Brotherhood" ~ Martin Luther King Jr. 

Patience is never an option. 

It's always a reality check.

The opposite of patience is frustration. Frustration is a rut. Being impatient is being in a rut. 

The impact on life is just like procrastination. Both are ways of being out of step with good timing and good luck. 

Everybody needs good luck.

Patience is the only way to live your dream.

Three Ways of Patience

With Yourself
  • Patience with yourself is personal loyalty.  It's respect - the foundation of every worthwhile relationship.
    • Being impatient with yourself is always self-defeating. 
    • Worse, when you are not patient with yourself, social relationships don’t last. 
    • People who are impatient with themselves make narrow-minded choices in social situations that  appear to be selfish or arrogant, and alienate others. That's why 'things' don't work out.
    • Find patience for your heart and mind. If you don't give it to yourself, nobody will.
With Timing
  • Patience with timing is a sign of confidence in choices and faith in goals. Sure, it’s a disappointment and a drag to not have an answer, a meeting or a trip when you want it. Reality is: we all march to our own beat and we're not always in step with others. Sometimes this means waiting.
    • The surprise of extra time gives you space to prepare the response for an unwanted answer. Time always catches up with us.
    • Extra time means you can have unexpected insights to fine-tune content for the meeting. 
    • Postponing a trip puts you somewhere else you need to be. 
    • If you are perfect, LOL, then the time of ‘waiting’ will reveal an opportunity or responsibility you need to address or reposition before your answer, meeting or trip. 
    • When you are patient with delays, you will find something new that helps you succeed. Time brings opportunity.
With others
  • Patience with others has its priorities. These include dignity, self-respect and compassion. People who do this well are our heroes, like Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi. These patient fighters used patience as personal power. So can you.
    •  This is not about what you do; it's about how you do it.
    •  Patience with others means acknowledging differences. No and yes are equally important for staying in tune with patience and your goals.
    • It is not ‘turning the other cheek” while someone hits you. You can be angry and be dignified.
    • If someone pushes your buttons and is disrespectful, sometimes it's best to just say, good-bye. The only person you can change is yourself. Stand tall, talk softly and use eye contact to make your point
'Life is like an elevator. On your way up, sometimes you have to stop and let some people off.' ~ anon 
Patience is an intuitive reality check. Experience reality. Be a sensual thinker.

Multi-Media Thinking & MLK



Survival demands that we grapple with problems that humanity has been trying to deal with through history. ~ Martin Luther King


Intuitive values are our global, personal and natural way to answer change. Depend on courage, dignity and tenacity when things seem impossible. Be curious. Sensual thinking is liberating - just ask Gandhi, Mandela or Martin Luther King.

Thinking sensually, we recognize inner character that we sense with heart. Courage, charity and personal integrity are always charismatic. 

Multimedia thinking is intuitively using what you sense to see, hear and feel your place in the big picture. Answer change with words and actions to open a path of justice and dignity for all. Doing this holds life together. 

Iconic intuitive values are multimedia guides in the darkest times. No one can tell you what to think because the light is always there. You only have to be open to seeing, hearing and feeling, to receive its benefits. Thinking sensually is a natural bridge we walk to follow the light.

Possibilities evolve because everything changes. You know what matters. Notice what you sense to connect with momentum and personal honor. You have natural power. Use it.

Thanks to technology, we are community.  Innovation and community bring creative conversation and cutting edge solutions for the future.  Be curious, explore options.  As we deal with problems from an intuitive perspective together - they can belong to the past.

Sensual thinking  taps into multidimensional creative vision for personal and global survival. We think with our senses and heart, and feel with our mind and soul.  There are always solutions and sharing. Connect with  your inner starlight.

Thinking sensually is a transcendent blend  and balance of wisdom and innovation.  The philosophy of experience is based on what we sense. It's peaceful to let Life's spontaneous pop of moments keep connections open.
