New Place, Tucson, good

in the air
in the air

airport Tucson
airport at Tucson, nice long fun musical iPod wait

guest house for sweet stay
guest house for sweet stay

the  neighborhood itself
the neighborhood


in any place you can
i can drive myseelf
drove yourself
crazy

with the story
any story
of how What Is

ain't good enough

and then
as always to
notice
and come back
to

who am I
without the story:

sweet


ah

Slow down, travel plans, do you want to host?

single rose



I have this nice little ongoing
sermon in
this blog:
slow down
and be present.

And I have,
Sometimes,
or even often,
hurried through whatever I was going
to write,
not being present as the words
were being typed along.

Now,
I'm here.

I invite you
to whatever your present is right now.

This is my idea for
a good life:
to live and assist others
in Awakened Gardening
Awakened Movement
Awakened Relationship
Awakened and Ecological Living

Being present is a kick
and a great place to be of use
to myself, others and the planet.

Plans,
alas, are not in the present,
and they do present
a chance to the present
in some other "place"
at some other "time."

I'm interested
in additional hosts,
interested in allowing me to
assist them
as they assist me with a place to stay,
and an "in" to the local plant, nature and people world,
one month at a time.

During that time, I would be delighted to
assist
in all the Awakened pathways
mentioned above,
including either giving
or trading Neurological Upgrading Lessons.

Giving one a day if you have a child
with Special Needs,
or someone recovering from a Stroke or Accident,
or if you are someone
wanting to radically improve your golf,
tennis, feeling inside yourself,
connection to pleasure
and skill,
anti-aging, vitality,
grace and ease of thinking, moving and feeling.

Trading if another practitioner of
the Feldenkrais Method
or the
Anat Baniel Method is my host.
To give and receive daily lessons:
imagine the heaven of that.

Anyway:
as I write about this as yet non-existent world,
the plan world,
I was
slipping out
of the
present,
and here I am again,
back
home,
now

and you are whatever and however and wherever
you are.

So far, these places seem to be part
of my path:
Tucson, Arizona
Atlanta, Georgia
Orcas Island, Washington,
Amish rural Ohio
Chicago

Will keep filling in cities and places
as the pathways get more clear.

Thanks,

Chris
