Some people bring the best out of us! Recommendation: stick with those. How are you better by their companionship? Be super grateful. Maybe they taught you, or showed you, or encouraged you, or mentored you, or inspired you from the authenticity of their very being to acquire a new skill; maybe a brand new routine or behavior or outlook. Maybe they lifted you to a new trajectory, or pointed you to a brighter better path, or challenged you, or comforted you, or supported you, or were just there to hold you up when you were struggling to find your footing. Maybe they walked with you. Maybe they listened - just an ear - with not near a whisper but every bit a heartbeat and a steady breath. Maybe it was just a twinkle. You know what it is. Love, baby, love! Called by any other name - love! Is that beautiful? And now it is your time to be! Be! Maybe you are going to be a flower. Maybe you are going be a fruit. Maybe you are going to be a seed. Be. Be the best you can be in this moment. Breathe. And be. Take care of you. We are no positive good to others when we are no good to oursleves, but negativity could use us, and will use-abuse us just so, and have nothing left of us but that on which to dust its feet. Seek out those who are doing or did or are achieving or attained what you need to do to reach where you are going, supposing here on up ahead to be the wiser-better place to be than aback of growth's tugging fields. Learn. Being you - that better you - better than you yesterday, you gain - we too! And them. So be. Let them be them. You be you! That better you! Let your soul nourish YOU! Do you. Against the struggle. Do you. In rhythm with the music of the wind carrying you. Dance. When we see you dancing the way you dance, maybe words will pop like miracle seeds within us; powerful words fleshed from the sweat of your burn - oneness, togetherness, separateness, strength, lift, trust, support, comfort, competence, confidence, community, individuality, endurance, belief, creativity, flow, grace - and these seeds will germinate then flower then bear fresh new tasty fruits: miracles beyond biblical portions (as promised). And maybe you will hear God saying, "Now you understand me." Hm?

Life: it is a dance. It gets better with practice; its music is in your heart and in your soul and in your blood and in your bones. Life; it is a dance. It gets better with practice. You have a partner – your spirit. You can have a party if you like, but choose smartly who you invite, for life – your life – is a dance. It gets better with practice, unless you stop the music or so crowd your dance floor there is no space to move or be moved within it. Explore. Yes, life; it is a dance. It gets better with practice until the dance becomes the dancer and the dancer becomes the dance and life and all of existence becomes a singular flow. Yes, life; it is a dance. It gets better with practice. Dance.

Why I Dream: "The ocean was stirring beneath a stiff breeze. Fully awake I stepped from the Kasbah to prepare for the new day, for now that I dreamed the great dream I knew my dream would come true. But I had not yet told anyone what this great dream is, this dream of necessity. There was a great clamor in the city at sunrise . . . they were all so astonished at their experiences . . . for these were able to see clearly to their own dreams . . . and (beheld) seams of fissures closing and great lakes awakening, and a borning that has vexed and lifted the ire of some so angered by these new dreams coming alive they are being consumed by their own fire . . . But those that rode with me do see and hear and now know by the measure of their own dreams that love is surrender, love is an entanglement, love is a triumph . . . and (that) some sparkles worn around some necks are not gems, and some gems are not diamonds, and not all diamonds are worn without expectation of favor or respect. Diamonds are a copy. They do not shine, they reflect. But love? Love is kind. It is not envy. It is not evil. It is not beside itself. Love is kind. Like our stars, love shines. That is why I dream. And this time I dreamed you." _ Dreamer (The Hunks I Dreamed)
