months journal version of transform foralmost two weeks now and its because ivehad a block
not an ordinary writers blockmdashwhich whileannoying unproductive and sometimes even
painful is generally unwantedmdashas that would be preferable to theblock ive been having
ive been having a heart-mind block
i have found the thinking choices behavior and resulting consequencesof our people so incomprehensible at a heart level that my mind hasrefused to put words to a phenomena that seems beyond them
when i say our people i mean OUR people all of them the ones thatevery single human that ever lays eyes on thismdashfrom now until the endof timemdashhave a relationship to
- the people in the Tea Party- the people never invited to the Party- the people in Arizona (made up of lines)- the people of Arizona (made up of lineage)- the people (and wildlife) within the Gulf Coast- the people (and profiteers) far away from the Gulf Coast- the people in the White House- the people thrown out of their house- the people of God- the people that own God- the people in Israel (that wont let up)- the people in Gaza (that cant get out)
with each upside-down turn of events my heart has broken further andhas threatened to take my mind with it because my mind wants tomake sense of something that my heart knows full well it cannot
and should not
what i can do instead is try to sort out what is real and what is notthats an illusion of sorts too i know but this is what i came up with
Nine Things Real and Not Real
1 we the People are divided by fear lack of vision andimagination is real
2 the so-called border that divides this land from the people wetook it from by force is not real
3 the horrific show of how deep this countrys racism runsmasking itself as its very own Party of hatred is real
civilizationThis 25-minute retrospective asks us to reflect on thestate of the world and ourselves and to listen moreclosely to what is being asked of us at this time ofunprecedented global transformation

communities ourselves and from love
We had the kind of meeting in which people often of color come intoa space in which people who often not always but often--in theimagination of our culture--have more power more influence moreaccess more moreand this usually contributes to getting more Andtheyre often doing something these people in power and in places ofprivilege and with lots of access And too often as we understand ourhistory their doing something is the other folks undoing in someway In a way that has become just too familiar So familiar in factthat we forget that its even happening on a daily basis So we had thiskind of situation where these folks--were not talking about evil oilbarons--these are good-hearted people that do good things in the worldand have really good intentions They were doing something that we--people that dont sit in that particular seat of privilege--could see as anundoing

angel Kyodo williams next public talkThursday June 10 CXC
newDharma TalkThe Fire of Truth amp LoveThis talk was originally given by angel Kyodowilliams in October 2007 following a meeting oflike-minded but differently-privileged folks at CXCIt looks at how our beliefs that were different thanothers keeps us disconnected from our extended
communities ourselves and from love
We had the kind of meeting in which people often of color come intoa space in which people who often not always but often--in theimagination of our culture--have more power more influence moreaccess more moreand this usually contributes to getting more Andtheyre often doing something these people in power and in places ofprivilege and with lots of access And too often as we understand ourhistory their doing something is the other folks undoing in someway In a way that has become just too familiar So familiar in factthat we forget that its even happening on a daily basis So we had thiskind of situation where these folks--were not talking about evil oilbarons--these are good-hearted people that do good things in the worldand have really good intentions They were doing something that we--people that dont sit in that particular seat of privilege--could see as anundoing
