Sharon Friedman – Vigilance and Tranquility

Sometimes I try to do something and it goes wrong. You have a thought in your head and the result goes sideways or backwards. One reason I feel there is an attampt on my part to create a certain reality and that is never good. It keep you from being alive at the moment and seeing things as they are. Mistakes can serve a purpose too, if your ego is not in the drivers seat and can help everyone to see things as they are.

Try this: put your hand on your friends shoulder (when you work remember to use all parts and not just that). Have him walk and you follow him while keeping your calm and posture. play with this and see how you can keep the contact and know your place in the moving context of things. Later on, work with more people if you can and see how you can work together or against one another to lessen the impact a group has. Doing regular things together like standing up and sitting. doing pushups in rythem teaches you to move without restraints and being controlled by others. To keep the pace or to move as one you have to be free. If you react to someone else’s start you will always be late and if you tense up against touch, you will not get anywhere at all.

Sometimes it takes me a while to get the point accoss. I hope the jurney is as pleasent as the goal since one is nothing without the other.
