What is the more I need to work?

"Inward, not identify."  "Outward, play a role." -- G

There's a movement that's required of me to continue; otherwise, I'm just going in circles and relying on gifts that are given from time to time to remind me of the prison I'm in.

I've just been reminded of the need for this inner movement.  I remember knowing the need for it.  I remember feeling the movement in rare instances.

At this moment, I don't know what that movement is.  The state of questioning and standing in front of the absence of knowing gives me a second of presence and perhaps the possibility of making that movement.

This is my real condition.

What's Real is What's Right in Front of You.

The sun is trying to come out, daffodil buds are starting to unfurl, a garter snake is coiled in the side yard, a substantial part of its tail lopped off.  I don't know if it was injured by human, critter or car.  



Life is what's right in front of you; not some imaginings about what used to be or what might be.  Good and bad, OK, not OK, is just a judgment.  It just is.
