Thrivologue

In the audio above I discuss the origin of the term thrivologues, why they are specially important in times where survivalism often gets the focus, as well as how I managed not to see the butt of my husband’s ex CEO at the coffee shop. A point I would add to my discussion of thrivologues and why they are better than dialogues, is that where as dialogues usually center around seeking understanding of two often di-vervent ways of thinking about something, a thrivologue can get beyond opinions to authentic communion and authentic individual and communal co-creation, as well as addressing root causes we can agree on even when we may not agree on what the lesser of various evils may be, if we were to accept the status quo as the ‘As good as it gets,” or “this is what we have to work with.” When things break down, it is up to us to claim how we create anew instead of letting “agendas” determine that course!

I love hearing stories like this! My husband and I were chatting and I made a joke about dialogue. I said one party would have to listen a lot closer if the other had di-ed. Then he coined the term thrivalogue.

Let’s have thrivalogues, where we talk about how people are coming together even when faced with immense and otherwise seemingly insurmountable challenges!

Love this 

Think Globally, Act Locally

What if we could feel globally

And honor the totality

While living, moving, breathing, empowering

Locally

What if we felt our whole selves open like the sky

And met one another with respect and mutuality

Eye to Eye

Celebrating what makes us Unique

Allowing all our voices to Speak

From a place of Unity

Ultimate Oneness

Honoring our Distinctive

Experiences

Perspectives

As Lattices

That can Be Appreciated

Beyond

Control objectives

The Dance

Kaleidascope

No Longer

Dictates passed down

Integrated As Law

From the Pope

Nope

Nope

Nope

Papul Bulls

You’re Out of Your Scope

Let us Find In One Another’s Goodness

Hope

For Beyond All Sides

Dragged Along Warfares Tides

Beautiful Souls

Want to change the Tides

We are not the Co-opted

Of Occupied Wallstreet

Or Occupied With What Wallstreet has to say

We are the Dancers and Dreamers; We are the Poets and Light Beamers

Who Come to Embrace What is Here

And Find the Notes that Can be Woven Into Wholeness

And Harmony

Beyond Harms

And Atrocities

Beyond

False polarities

Beyond extreme Duality

Finding our Creative Center

Causality

Loving All That Is

Unconditionally

Within this Vibrating Fabric

So-Called Reality

What is Real

What can we FEEL

Embrace the Local

Where sharing comes from the Heart

Embrace the Global

Where it isn’t Globalism

Or Any Ism

But the Honor

Of that One

Beyond Schism

The very Honoring Allows

Local Cultures and Ways

To be Honored

Without Regime Change

By Assimilation

Domination

Subjugation

Or Debt

Or Conjured Threat

Nor with Development

That puts the real power in the hands of the few and the foreign

But Global Hearts

Celebrates the Freedom of what the Locals’ got goin’

International Cooperation is always voluntary and hegemony is a thing of the Past

I saw it leave

Right out of humanity’s

Donkey

Butt

Okay

I’ll just say it

Ass

On similar lines, I really enjoyed

Regan Roberts

piece. She writes:

“Humans have an inclination towards charity and helping one another. If not why would charity shops exist? What about community Facebook pages? People enjoy helping one another out. Remove all the labels that a person has attached to themselves and see the humanity in their eyes. See the past pains and look at their scars. Know that they carry burdens and baggage just like everyone else, just like you.”

I really believe this. Altruism and empathy are part our innate, natural selves. We simply need to untie ourselves from that which suppresses that natural contribution, loving aspects of humanity so that we can feed the good wolf. We may have epigenetic trauma and soul scars. We may have been manipulated genetically be aliens or really off track earlier incarnations of people like those who mess around irresponsibly with CRISPR, along with our baggage from this life to jettison - but fundamentally I believe the human design is to prosper in harmony, in love in sovereignty. We have free will. So we can choose which wolf we feed, but our True Nature is innocent. Speaking of Wolf, look for a cross post from

James Don BlueWolf

. Here is the poem:

Mysterious Messenger #37 (Poetry Audio/Text)

His piece on Jesus, shared in the post above is one of my favorites.

Terra Brooke

also has wonderful thoughts on Jesus and the journey, inner and outer to honor our own truths while living a space with others.

I’d love to hear about any thrivalogues you have been having lately!

Lots of love,
