Welcome to both New and Returning Friends!
Now is not the time for formal introductions.
My plan had been to write a beautiful introductory newsletter to formally launch this site and what I want to share with you here. I have it all outlined and sitting next to me waiting to be masterfully created and published.
But…. in this moment tensions are increasing on the prospect of World War 3 or 4, the freedom truckers line of solidarity is being broken up with dictarial mandates being followed through with, and Australia is rising up in the same way but without the cold temperatures.
A tiny view into my here and now
I am sitting here in frozen remnants of snow in the north eastern side of Arizona, inside a tiny steel box called home, with the deep desire to be where you are and not here, alone, with a dog who is both bored and dying. His name is Freedom and this is the second time for rme with a dog thus named.
The first Freedom died days before 9/11 - and now my second dog named Freedom is dying more slowly but in the same kind of timeline as then as is now. Freedom is both dying and rising in the world around us.
Everything dies exceept life itself.
I want to be where you are becuase like you I am wired to run into the danger, not sit far away and observe it.
I am also unwaiveringly loyal to who I love and so I will sit here with my Freedom and patiently wait to see how the future unfolds.
Well not exactly patiently, but patience with effort!
How are you doing?
And that brings me to you, wherever you are, and to whatever role you are playing - how are you doing?
The thing I learned and loved most about intense crisis and danger was how everything but what was real got stripped away and all attention was fully in the moment.
No BS, no superficial, no run on sentences.
Just here, now, and all facades gone. The worse things get, the more real life gets.
And that is where the people I want to reach out to live. Those who have nervous systems wired for such moments, but live there most of the time.
Which can create issues - but those are for another day.
Here, now - how are you doing? What do you need in this moment? I can offer little but the reminder to breathe deeply and often. I can offer prayers also deeply and often.
And someday soon we will talk here about who you are both in and after the danger and the crisis when the world goes back to superficial, boring, and anything but real and authentic.
If you are new? I hope you will subscribe and help me shape where this all goes. My intentions are pure and my desire powerful - but I also know the road I am undertaking is most challenging!
See you soon my W4D Friends and welcome to Clan Pride (more on that later!)
