“Some of us receive the precious opportunity in this time to use the struggles that we are experiencing to dedicating ourselves to fostering sanity, care, and justice in the world. We have heeded the call to abandon futility and meet our moral anguish, our grief, and our fear with openness and curiosity. We have also allowed ourselves to be worked by the power of adversity in order to meet the unfolding and uncertain present with inquiry, hope, awe, and loving action. And if we can’t, then we do not turn away from that. Sometimes we have to pause, not ready to take the next step. Sometimes we make unfortunate mistakes and withdraw from the world in shame. Sometimes we falter in the midst. Sometimes we fall apart and stay that way for a long time. And sometimes we need to step away, to retreat, to take the backward step. It is simply not our time to step forward. But know that we, too, are being worked. And others are being worked in their own way. It is not to add the weight of judgement onto the burden that we are already carrying. It is not to turn away from our current experience, even if our response does not meet our so-called standards. It is rather to meet it with, ‘Hello old friend, I know you.’” - Roshi Joan Halifax, Meeting the More and the Marrow [From the book: Not Too Late: Changing the Climate Story from Despair to Possibility / Edited by  Rebecca Solnit & Thelma Young Lutunatabua]

Francisco Peralta Del Campo (1837-1897) - The old warrior, oil on panel, 30,5 x 21,3 cm. :: [Guillaume Gris]

"In thinking about trauma and resilience as I reflect on what is unfolding in our world at this time: From the point of view of systems theory, systems that break down have the potential to reorganize themselves at a higher more robust level of functionality. The experience of breakdown can give one a very deep and optimistic view of the potential of others to grow from trauma, instead of being diminished. This is called post-traumatic growth and refers to the benefit from psychological changes that can be experienced as a result of the struggle with challenging life circumstances and can foster greater resilience. We have to remember that people who have survived trauma can come back transformed by the experience and see that suffering has made them more resilient rather than more fragile, with the ability to thrive in the present rather than being overwhelmed by the past. Beyond the ending of the old way of being, there is hope for the emergence of the new, and to imagine a future in which the wounds are still there, but in a form that makes one wiser and humbler and helps one to thrive."

O luto é uma expressão do amor. Não é uma expressão de derrota. Amor pela pessoa que perdemos.

[...] Então, eu nunca dei as costas para os sentimentos do luto.

Eu sinto que o que o luto faz por mim e pode fazer por todos nós é nos humanizar profundamente.

The Path that Goes Nowhere - Barbara Brown Taylor on the Practice of Labyrinth Walking

Barbara Brown Taylor reflects on her own experience of Labyrinth-walking and the significance of the path without a destination.

“Most of us spend so much time thinking about where we have been or where we are supposed to be going that we have a hard time recognizing where we actually are.”– Barbara Brown TaylorTweet Roshi Joan Halifax tells a story about an exchange she had with her teacher when she asked him, “Going to the temple, you take the path. Entering the temple you leave the path. What does this mean?” Her…

I love this sentence for a bunch of reasons, including that a lot of people think being broken is unusual, a violation of the terms of agreement, and the end of the story rather than something that quite often happens in the middle. What often happens after that with skin, bones, hearts, and other things is repair...... And sometimes post-traumatic growth.

Roshi Joan Halifax, 2022: "The experience of breakdown can give one a very deep and optimistic view of the potential of others to grow from trauma, instead of being diminished. This is called post-traumatic growth and refers to the benefit from psychological changes that can be experienced as a result of the struggle with challenging life circumstances. It can foster greater resilience. We have to remember that people who have survived trauma can come back transformed by the experience and see that suffering has made them more resilient rather than more fragile, with the ability to thrive in the present rather than being overwhelmed by the past. Beyond the ending of the old way of being, there is hope for the emergence of the new, and to imagine a future in which the wounds are still there, but in a form that makes one wiser and humbler and helps one to thrive."

Found Cooper’s Hawk (I believe) feather. The profound power of flight is made possible by a structure so delicate. Not unlike our own strong back and soft front potentialities. Roshi Joan Halifax: “All too often our so-called strength comes from fear, not love. Instead of having a strong back, many of us have a defended front, shielding a weak spine. In other words, we walk around brittle and defensive, trying to conceal our lack of confidence. If we strengthen our backs, metaphorically speaking, and develop a spine that’s flexible but sturdy, then we can risk having a front that’s soft and open. How can we give and accept care with strong back, soft front, compassion, moving past fear to a place of genuine tenderness? I believe it comes when we can be truly transparent, seeing the world clearly and letting the world see into us.” 📍Tongva (Gabrielino) Land (at Tongva Land) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfZ_IeGPUHKPMHiGaa1kU5d6Jj2y5oDaXDrDz80/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“How can we give and accept care with strong-back, soft-front compassion, moving past fear into a place of genuine tenderness? I believe it comes about when we can be truly transparent, seeing the world clearly- and letting the world see into us.”

Strong back, soft front...

I want to unpack this a little bit. A quote attributed to prolific researcher and explorer of shame, guilt, human-ness, Brene Brown (she adds “and a wild heart” at the end), and Roshi Joan Halifax, American Zen Buddhist teacher. 

I was listening to a beautiful podcast yesterday (On Being - check it out) with Brene featured, and this message was so clearly visible in my mind. 

My default response is frequently anger when I am hurt, or when I see others hurting. I do not transition from sadness to disappointment - I want to stand up and man, just not play nice!

This may be surprising for people to interact with me in a professional setting/daily because I seem pretty neutral haha Which I will always be in a professional setting because it is a professional setting. 

This quote struck me because I think it is a great balance for me to adopt/work towards. In some instances, I don’t think women get angry enough - we do not own our fury. In other cases, I know anger will get nowhere in the efforts of finding a productive solution. 

Perhaps we can approach things with love, but supported by a strong foundation of “this is what I will not tolerate, this is what I will speak out against.” Whether or not that is received is in the hands of the receiver...but we can feel good know we stayed true to ourselves, while respecting another. 

It also goes back to that idea of being lonely, and standing alone - when we force ourselves to belong for fear of the former, and learning to brave the latter when we need to. 

Some thoughts going into your long weekend :)
