Existence 

This miracle of life that we call existence, I stand in awe of. we are a part of an infinite migration, just traveling through this time and space. Multitudes have spent a season here and many have yet to come. In these finite moments we perceive a narrow window of reality and truth. Each person has an individual creative journey, and each individual is a part of a collective group of knowledge. When we work with the knowledge and wisdom we are handed, it becomes a divine invitation to expand and grow that understanding of collective consciousness. By not giving up, by engaging the body of wisdom we where handed, we expand our tribes understanding. Being morally lazy, agnostic, antagonistically irreverent, we just dishonor our existence, our ancestors, and we become a block for those who follow us. We have all been invited into a beautiful journey individually, and collectively. We are one with all of humanity and are apart of human expression of what existence is becoming. We are expression of those that we have followed and those who follow us. When we see this moment for what it is, a gift and an invitation to expand, we honor our existence. We are not an end unto ourselves put a part of an infinite expression.

Two rivers, Choosing what river to run

Some rivers flow to a destructive end and others that are are eternally life-giving. All of us have these two Rivers present, we get to choose what river to run. 

The black muddy river:

Selfishness, instant gratification, comfort, security, slow, solo, self focused, individual as a means and end, waiting for renewal at the ocean, awaits stagnant for the cycle to restart, 

The clear river

Wildly alive full of rapids, uncomfortable, requires collective participation, carves space for all humanity, individual a means to give, fresh in the mountains, near source,
