Bumping into Not Me By Errol Strider (pretending to be me) Easing into this moment… as I attempt to wend my way around the obstacles of my life… those judgments I project before me... that cause me to stumble and fall and have to watch the ground in order not to bump into the sharp edged walls that I make of everyone by the way I shape them according to how they are not me. -- Errol Strider, Artistic Director The Laughing Heart (415) 459-4512 http://striderinnertainment.com/ http://www.insightoutwitherrol.blogspot.com/ http://www.utopiaradio.com/ estrider@gmail.com
Let's face it, it's nice to share a meal with someone you can relate to. When I want heartfelt comfort and soul nourishment…it really is immensely satisfying to know that I am in a relationship with a very intimate "Other"…and indeed, the more I surrender (snuggle up) to that Other-ness, the more I recognize that the other enjoys companionship just as much as I do. The meal just tastes better when we're sharing the same grass. But just to keep the scales balanced (I am a Libra), I love grazing in the open fields of un-endingness and non-distinction…it's relaxing, it's satisfying, there's no resistance and there's more than enough to go around. So let's face it...it's good to abide in "both/and".. which calls me to be a compassionate "other" when life needs "me-othering" and as permeating presence in the pastures of consciousness when distinction just gets in the way. So, thanks Jesus and thanks Buddha. Even tho...
Text message from God: "When you step into the Do-duality, don't get it all over yourself.." I saw Michael Moore's movie, "Capitalism, a Love Story" last night. I can imagine many of us going, "Ooooo!" "Yuk" "They're awful." "What can we do?" Then we're taken over by a feeling of impotence or simply the distractions and the compulsivity's of our own needs and wants, and it becomes just another movie. And we become, like the guards at the doors of the big corporations that Mr. Moore approached… "Sorry, you can't talk to our CEO, let alone convert him/her." And what is the CEO or your consciousness? For most of us it is a false sense of who we are concocted out of our need to separate ourselves in order to know ourselves…hence…greed, denial, apathy, war/competition, dis-ease, etc. I suggest that we start by becoming a little reflective…rather than reflexive. Consider: We are unlikely to change...
