1. Here is a little challenge from Rob Brezsny. “See how much fun you can have by telling the lush, pulsating, up-to-the-minute truth with kindness and elegance.”
2. The Squire stocked up on Mac-n-cheese today.
3. Last weekend I was totally sucked into a Merge Dragons app event. I did the best I’ve ever done. I completed all the quests but one. Go me! hahahaha

1. Here is a challenge for you. Every morning for 7 or more days, “say this out loud to see how it feels: “I know exactly what I want. I know exactly what I don’t want. I know exactly what I kind of want but I won’t waste my time on it because it sidetracks me from working on what I really want.” ~ Rob Brezsny
2. Another man I know died from Covid.
3. Starting with dried chickpeas changes my entire hummus plan. Starting with dry beans is so much better and makes a smoother hummus. I won’t need to purchase a food processor.
QOTD: Anthony Bourdain said: “I want to keep the assholes in my life to an absolute minimum, if not zero. That’s worth real, real money — to not have assholes in your life.”

It’s wild and crazy 😜 but 😎 day. I checked the coolant in the Jeep. It was good, so off we went to the Bam’s laundromat which was very crowded during this Covid spike. So we continued on down the road to an older one. We were the only ones there. Safer! We washed the clothes then put them on to dry. While they were drying we went to visit our horse trainer friend. Hanging out in his barn we talked of knives, marriage, drugs, living your dream, and teeth. Picking up the dry clothes we went to visit Jesse’s dad at the feed store where he works. The horse trainer was there getting feed. So was Jesse’s mom. An hour or so later off we went to get groceries, vodka, a chicken finger snack and a large coke for Jesse. The food is stowed. The clothes are put up. The batteries are topped up. The adult beverage is good.

“Now it is the time to be a bungee jumper without the cord! And this is an expression of absolute trust, not being reserved or hiding in the safety corner, which is what Knight of Water wants from us. It is a great inspiration if we jump and plunge into the unknown, even though it scares us to death. And when we believe in the level of quantum leaps, we won’t devise any elaborate plans. We are not saying: “Okay, I believe I know what to do now, and I will arrange everything, pack suitcases, and carry them.” No, we just jump, not even think about what happens next.
That jump is worthwhile, and it makes us tremble when we fall freely in the vast sky. The Knight of water Osho Zen refers to what will be waiting for us on the other side – a soft, welcoming, yummy pink, rose petals, juicy… Come on!” ~ TarotX.net
“Don’t waste your life for that which is going to be taken away. Trust life. If you trust, only then can you drop your knowledge, only then can you put your mind aside. And with trust, something immense opens up. Then this life is no longer ordinary life, it becomes full of God, overflowing.
When the heart is innocent and the walls have disappeared, you are bridged with infinity. And you are not deceived; there is nothing that can be taken away from you. That which can be taken away from you is not worth keeping, and that which cannot be taken away from you, why should one be afraid of its being taken away? – it cannot be taken away, there is no possibility. You cannot lose your real treasure. “

I pulled this card from the Osho Zen Tarot deck this morning.
Osho Zen Tarot
When we have a true spirit of adventure, we will move like this child. Full of trust, out of the darkness of the forest into the rainbow of the light, we walk step by step, fascinated by the feeling of the magic into the unreal realm. ~ TarotX.Net
Shortly before pulling this card I found this quote in the latest Rob Brezsny newsletter.
“Our goal should be to live life in radical amazement — get up in the morning and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted. Everything is phenomenal; everything is incredible. Never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.” —Abraham Joshua Heschel
Do you see the serendipity? I’m not saying this is a message from That Which Is, but it sure looks like one to me.

1. All my talk about thinking new thoughts is about deliberately creating a new story in my life, dreaming a different dream, manifesting different adventures.
2. While washing my hands, I say a little prayer: May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness May all beings lack sorrow and the causes of sorrow May all beings rejoice in the wellness of others May all beings have love and peace and joy.
3. I do not exist to save anything or anyone. I do not exist to be small so you can appear bigger. I do not exist to placate or passify you. I do not exist to cater to you. I exist to be my best self.
QITD: “Our goal should be to live life in radical amazement — get up in the morning and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted. Everything is phenomenal; everything is incredible. Never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.”
—Abraham Joshua Heschel, Jewish theologian and civil rights activist

2. I have new ink from Black Diamond Tattoo. The artist was Kimberly Aldridge. I like it.
Eye of Horus
3. I enjoy Carolyn Elliot’s newsletter. Here is an excerpt from a recent one.
“Every human … is an infinitely rich & complex work of art, a sweet lil tender baby-gone-big but still toddling through the hard traumatizing world…
…and everyone of us merits infinite open-hearted love, not the constriction of condemnation.
Judging ourselves or others as “bad and wrong” serves only as a flimsy attempt to cling to our socially-conditioned story of identity…
… to protect against the ecstatic, mind-melting recognition that we’re all completely entwined in perpetual birth-death orgasm within this fractal holographic tapestry…
… and that the saintliest saint is utterly dependent on the most debased criminal for her existence.
So what useless & stagnating moralizing judgment of yourself or others are you ready to give up today?”
~ Carolyn Elliott

1. Screaming child: Oh my lord it’s a frog! It just jumped over here. My god it’s a frog.
2. Breakfast conversation with a four year old.
Me: if you had it to do over would you incarnate on this planet?
4 Year Old (4YO): No!
Me: I don’t think I would either. But there is good crusty bread. Shoves crusty bread into mouth.
4YO: It’s crunchy. Shoves crunchy bread into mouth.
3. Good thoughts Kind people Happy moments
4. “What if the Source loves to give you riddles that push you past the boundaries of your understanding, forcing you to deepen your perceptions and change the way you think about everything? Close your eyes and imagine you can sense the presence of this tender, marvelous, difficult, entertaining intelligence.” ~ Rob
6. How to know you’re a loser. You get this text. “Can you tell the person I actually want to talk with to check their messages. “
7. I have come to a now where I jump, push, scream, and fight the boundaries my mind created for me.
8. This meme ensnared my mind. hahahaha
This is a dream.

Sunrise on Lay LakeI saw this little turtle easing on down to the lake. There is a red winged blackbird nest in this clump of flowers on the water’s edge. Here is my friend. I see this bird every morning
