My dog has an inexplicable prejudice against the dog who belongs to my neighbor who loves Ukraine, yet occasionally flies the peace flag for me. She is much bigger than the small dogs who bark at the pitch that is a horror to my nervous system from our neighbors on the other side - maybe that is why she - my dog - is relatively unfazed by them. But I speculate either she had a trauma with a dog that resembles the one belonging to my flag-flying neighbor, or else they have past/parallel life issues, as yet unresolved.
I stepped out to intervene to stop my dog from barking - I am a no-nonsense companion about such things; if my dog barks in a continuous way, she comes inside. Simple. She knows this. I usually give her a look and get her to stop. Sometimes she actually now brings herself inside when the temptation is too great. I am also learning to bring myself back to my heart when something triggers me, and my knee jerk reaction is to launch a thousand ships of well-researched links instead of remembering that I am only a noisy gong if I have not love. Sometimes I need to bring myself in, to return to my heart, to love, to the reason I came to earth, which I believe, is to bring light and love, truth, and joy, as well as to be an authentic ambassador for living in a way that reflects my soul.
As I went on the deck, Adrian immediately settled down. Unlike in the past, my presence was enough. So I said hi to my neighbor over the fence, as he was out with the dog my dog has the beef with. I asked how he was doing and what he was up to, and learned he is on the cusp of getting a new car. I asked him what kind. It’s a Volkswagen. I cringed. Again. Volkswagens are on the list of car companies that collaborated with Nazi Germany. I don’t hold it against friends who drive them; my safe-to-have-an-ugly-cry-with friend drives one and it’s an SUV. I have learned to love the opportunities that come my way to love people and move beyond judgments. I remember the first time I met a nice Beamer driver, after having long associated them with assholes. It was a true delight. Yet beyond my personal experience of the types drawn to beamers, BMWs are also on the Hitler-friendly list. I bet most of the people who drive them either don’ t know, assume it’s a relic of the best that is not relevant or have thrown up their hands and decided everything is “dirty” so just buy what you like. And truthfully, I get it from the various angles. I limit what I buy on Amazon, but I do buy things from them, even though I know the truth about the company. I believe integrity has to have a supple spine. But it still has to have one. I try to listen to intuition rather than a rigid approach to navigating a world where, pretty much everything is “dirty” in one way or another. I love that
makes most of her own stuff. I would love to learn more, and I’d love to see more local, organic practices, community-owned and operated businesses that provide everything needed for a simple, luxurious life of locally produced fabrics, foods and fuels. I’d love to see an ethos of communalism instead of nationalism or trends toward global governance based on the converging interests of various institutions that infiltrate thought paradigms and argue with nationalism but seek to supplant it rather than dismantle it. This worldview is discoverable through the classic eugenicists of the Fabian ilk who sought to control the population in a kind of pleasant slavery or painless elimination rather than the open brutality of Hitler.I just nodded in acknowledgement when my neighbor told me about his Volkswagen. I then asked if he’d seen a Dudley Moore film that was my favorite all time film from age 11 when I first saw it, through most of my adulthood. Crazy People one of the few movies that I would LOVE to see as an authentic reboot. My neighbor is a social worker, so I realized that in addition to the funny honest car ads featured in the movie, it is also relevant to his profession, as it features an ad executive who has a crisis of conscience, which lands him in a relatively posh institution, where he gets the patients writing honest ads that actually are stunning in their success.
Imagine: Vote for Kamila Harris. She released violent prisoners, while keeping non-violent ones in jail, She’s supported by google former CEO Eric Schmidt, supported legislation that reduced sentences for child rapists; in addition, she refused to respond to requests to release the names of priests who assaulted children - but hey, at least she’s not TRUMP! Or worse, Vance.
Of course the ads in Crazy People are about cars and snack foods. They are super funny. And they are full of sexual humor.
“Porsche. It’s a little too small to get laid in, but you get laid the minute you get out.”
Of course, Porsche is also on list. That makes Porsche unsexy, at least to me. Nazi collaborators can include people of Jewish descent, just as there were Germans and others in occupied territories who helped Jews hide and escape, such as Corrie Ten Boom. Nationalism can look like Germany or Israel. Beyond nation states and beyond transnational influences and institutes that seek to pull the puppet strings of both consciousness, influence policy and ultimate dominate through soft or hard means, there is a world where we live in harmony and base, where communalism is respected, and we are connected globally only in free and totally uncoerced ways.
We are free to think freely, dance freely and connect with our heart with abundance.
Our hearts shine with pristine love and compassion.
Our love is paired with discernment and wisdom
Our wisdom operates in a way that offers all way win soulutions beyond false dichotomies and false alternatives.
We are totally aligned to the divine within and supportive of others connecting to the divine within them. We mirror the beauty in one another and respect difference as a unique expression of the one Source.
Love is the answer. Love the Truth
The Truth is that we are all here to learn
How to Love
The Divine In One Another
Love reveals to Heal
Not to Steal
Love includes but is not limited to how we feel
It’s a Frequency and a Truth
It invites us to love unconditionally
Yet moves us beyond what is uncouth
Beyond being nice
Beyond being cruel
Love can be cayenne
Or cinnamon sugar spice
Love is a Truth, Love is the Fool
Beyond being a Tool
Unaccruing acculturation
Un-subscribing from Assimilation
Undoing Domination
Beyond the Abomination
Or Genocide
On Either or Any Side
Communalism
Moves us beyond Hygiene
To Organic Sovereign Harmony
From Control in one way or another
That would our Authentic Dignity
Smother
We Move in Gratitude
Sister
Father
Mother
Brother
Kindred
Life
Of all
Light refracted
Rainbow Diamond
Hear the call
Each in our own way
Love involves honoring that we each get to have our say
Consensus that is forced, while suppressing dissent
Is not a form of viable consent
And only agreement reached through freedom of expression
Find your sovereign power
The power of Oversoul
To bring you into the light
In which you are empty and full
No need to cull
Just be skillful beyond the bull
Can lead to humanity’s organic ascent!
You’d probably get very annoyed by our dogs too!
On the VW, BMW thing. I get the pain there. But if we look into every crime against humanity and sympathy of every corporate entity, we’d probably never buy anything! Sometimes we just have to let go.
Love the poem! Peace and Love!
