A new day begins. Opportunities abound, choices await, and at this moment I am cogniscent that I will likely move a few pieces about on the board game of existence, without any real connection to an outcome. I feel like a long term strategy is missing. And that's ok. Part of this process is aligning my intentions with an understanding that there are other moving pieces, too, impacting my potential. I continue to survey their placement while allowing my instincts to guide me until I find myself within reach of a substantial and defining "next move". I am looking forward to attending a "Death Cafe" event with Rich and Frank today.. This is something I feel I can and should be doing as apart of my path and interest. I have been stalled by a comfort zone barrier, like an ant on a white paper within a drawn black circle. The judgement of others - friends - still impacts me. I sensed that last night when not shared a reference to my Boulder experience. Eye rolls and look-aways. Why? Because it's unfamiliar and historically taboo? Yet there is a n overwhelming movement in the psychology and scientific community pointing out all of the benefits and positive results for individuals as well as society. Fear blocks them. And fear blocks me from breaking off from a need for acceptance from historical associations to align with those who aspire to be living in the same waking state.
