sprouts from ashes, burns anew


See previous post, for an example of my favorite brand. Kidding aside, since I decided to go to BM, I keep thinking about how to put into my life NOW the practices, ideas, attitudes that appear to be so much of what doing BM is. Namely, self-reliance, intuition, openning up to the moment, inviting randomness, cultivating unknowing...

The past few weeks, have been difficult. Because of how attached I've become to knowing shit ahead of time. The more I lose, the more I am grappling for control.

A few meltdowns later and I feel a bit more grounded again. Yes, getting to BM is doable, I think. It really must be my primary focus now, however. Which is to say, directing my resources, time and energy into getting my the basics covered, get CReaTiVe! prOducTive: Fucking MAke Some ShiT!, and cultivate unkowing...

There, I said it...

Most importantly in my mind now, however, is to take things slooooow. Just chill the fuck out for awhile, and do things at an even, measured pace. I'll get there because I've made my mind up to do whatever it takes to get there. I WILL go to Burning Man 2008.
