1st level awareness

Awareness of our being leads us to some basic understands. I’m more curious about what I can do with an awareness of that awareness. Or an awareness of being aware of being aware. oOo maybe getting into proactive decision making stuff now…

This graphic represents the journey of life or energy levels over time, illustrated through a bell curve, a common metaphor for growth, peak performance, and eventual decline or transition. The androgynous figure symbolizes a universal human experience, while the surrounding icons represent different emotions (such as happiness, anxiety, reflection) and speech acts (like assertives, directives, and expressives), which shape how we navigate through life.

The bell curve suggests that throughout life, energy and engagement rise, peak, and fall. Along the way, we experience a variety of moods and emotions, as well as engage in communication and commitments through speech acts. The absence of text allows the viewer to interpret these elements in relation to their own life and reflect on the phases of growth, interaction, and emotional response, emphasizing the interplay between time, energy, and self-awareness.

It’s a visual reminder that life is cyclical, and our energy and emotions fluctuate. By becoming aware of these fluctuations and the ways we communicate and process them, we can navigate life’s challenges with more wisdom and adaptability.

Possibly Be

Read by author

Must I give up my way of being?
Test a new possibility.
Be and be again.
As a newbie.

Alone to what I know.
Forever searching and caring.
Can I be, indeed?
Again and again, can I be, indeed?

For now I am dying.
Trying to be, indeed.
Being an ontological physical being.
Trying to be, indeed.

But making a huge mess.
With me, indeed.
Acting selfish and fighting for me.
Indeed.

The new being has weight to break.
The depth of suppression is deep, indeed.
Deep like where whales go.
Trying to break free, indeed.

No long living, but dying.
The weight of the being, indeed.
Trying to try to try to try.
But not being, indeed.

Not moving with my biology.
But moving with psychology, indeed.
Telling narrative stories.
To get into action, indeed.

telling the move makes action.
Let’s think of other kvetches, indeed.
Assurance completes doing.
Declarations make truth, indeed.

These facades are quite thin.
Words are playthings indeed.
But money makes power,
an oppressive force, indeed.

I’m not worried about changes.
Any Rynd believed selfishness leads to darkness, indeed.
So let those fools rot in darkness.
While I build, indeed.

Not sure what to build.
But needing the time, indeed.
Giving away pounds of flesh.
Taking joy in separation.

Different, indeed.
That’s me in a nutshell.
Trying to be me, indeed.
Because I’m invincible.

Bullet proof, indeed.
Not caring about consequence.
Not caring about me, indeed.
Trying to shine this light on me, indeed.

Not making sense of the view.
Seeing unclear the me.
Wondering what goes on in life.
Where should I be, indeed.

trying to make sense.
Trying to be me, indeed.
Trying to try to try to try.
But not being indeed.

Money makes power.
But presence leads.
Make me millions.
Millions, indeed.

Don’t be a fool.
About how to be, indeed.
Want to taste the future.
Try to be, indeed.

Try to re-be, indeed.
Do the thing, indeed, indeed.
Possibly be. The Be.
Then be. Then be.

Power is in Being

Be tested.
Go on trial.
Walk the ring of fire.
Stop being such a liar.

Live the tidal.
Find joy in rhythm.
Expect the unexpected.
And all the rest of that bullshitting.

Words are confounding.
Slip you right off to escaping.
Be your noble being.
Forget what you know. Stop thinking.

Be with care.
Your power is assessing.
Care what you consider.
Don’t believe in your opinion.

Observe yourself
and assess the being.
Unfold some new history
By shaping your being.

Make a joke.
Teach a skill.
Learn to eat.
4th order being is a treat.

Again assess the being.
Dedicate to the possible.
Find your wherewithal
and be responsible.

Invent your own tools.
But at least know how to be human.
There aren’t secrets.
Power is in being.
