Drawing from the Well

((LINK))Damn Miranda--Sonar Warning!
What I want for myself, and everyone else on the planet, are psycho-sexual experiences that, way more often than not, bring joy, affection, intimacy, pleasure, loving communication and touch, warmth, laughter, perhaps an orgasm or twelve, contentment, bliss, and maybe even a few moments of ecstasy into our lives. Love, as someone once said, comes when manipulation and definition stops.

I want these experiences, these feelings, for any woman I'm fortunate to be with, and the person she's fortunate to be with (that would be me), whether a relationship lasts for a few hours, months, years, for a decade or for a lifetime.
~ Joani Blank, paraphrased
_____________
I will go anywhere and talk to anyone for answers to questions, absorbing what I find useful and after satisfying questioning my Self, will disregard anything that seems irrational. *Shrugging*
With freedom, I’m simply compassionate, empathic, pragmatically optimistic, friendly, hedonistic, fortunate man-hoe, a humor-finder, and Unafraid of taking risks.

Welcome to the Well.

If you can imagine a place where everyone is encouraged to listen to and value ideas and comments made from perspectives that are different than yours, then you might also concede that we can all share in a gracious atmosphere here at the Well.

Breathing Deeply is a requirement in here – drama/bad theater Unwelcome; all else, optional.

If you’re a classic avoider of conflict,

changing the way you meekly respond to blame and criticism

may be difficult...

I'll be on holiday/hiatus for a few weeks beginning this Thursday or Friday.

It takes a great deal of strength to be denied peace ~ and not be emotionally injured by it.

I'm addicted to it I think.
Annnnd ...I will have my Peace...by whatever means necessary.
Self-preservation is intelligent and sensible, isn't it?

I hope to see you soon.

Be Kind.

Breathe Deeply~

27 Things I Like and Love – Will Never Tire Of... May 20, 2012 3:41 pm
2822 Views

A lot of things stimulate and arouse me, depending on the specifics, and the woman.

Still, there are some things that always snatch my attention - flip my switch.

[And]I am always - and I mean guaranteed - no exception – I am always aroused by my partner's arousal... * at times, an End unto Itself.

Imagine... Arousal from arousing: a liberal, kind, female arousal & orgasm addiction. (After all, isn’t a [healthy] male’s arousal & satisfaction, regardless of role, sort of a -- given, typically)?

(* And aren’t Mind and Body parts of the same system and affect each other? How true is it that there is no separate 'mind' and no separate 'body' – and that both words (worlds?) refer to aspects of the same 'whole'?

And if that’s reasonable, then maybe you also believe that they – mind & body, mental arousal & physical arousal - act as one...and they influence each other in such a way that no separation can exist. But I di-damn-gress)

How Would You Finish This? May 18, 2012 2:31 pm

"One of the things a lot of people seem not to realize (but seems that they really ‘should’) is that...."
+++

...how would you finish the preceding sentence?
I'll let the answers become visible when you're all done.

Meanwhile, what would it take to have you decide to believe that what matters is how you choose to react and what you choose to believe about yourself(not what other people say or do)?

Recognition comes in a flash of gold
Illuminating your outline like sonar
As the waves pass over I can see your features clearly and then they are gone again

I reach out one more time to be sure
A light pressure creating a small circle of golden light,
almost too faint to be noticed...
but only just almost.


(Unkn.)

Sometimes we know for sure that we're in a world

we never made...

Even ambiguously so -

Breathe Deeply~
Peace

PS
I think I'm gonna do everything possible to have a stress and worry-free (peaceful, deeply breathing) week.

Yesssssssss, an entire WEEK.

if that means solitude, seclusion, isolation ... being comatose, even, so let it be.

A person could become sick if not careful.

Bogged Down?
Caught up? Stalled? Delayed? Hindered, Stalled?

Spinning your wheels, out of time, out of patience, out of strength, out of hope, frustrated, stressing?

Maybe you‘re messing with the details, which are a million times worse than messing with bad-asses like, misfortune, defeat, illness, or death.

Suppose you’re messing with the details?

Suppose messing with the details is like trying to win Preakness with a mule, like playing tennis with a golf club, like trying to cook with yesterday’s hot stove, like playing basketball with an anvil, or trying to find a meaningful new friend at the mall while wearing a chicken suit?

What if you just clarify your vision – envision the end result?
What if you think, think, and let go - follow your impulses, do what you can, act ‘as if’, and know you've done your part?

You’ve done your part.

You do have time for this, because you, like me, have never ‘heard’ or ‘seen’ or ‘believed’ ANYthing - from ANYone –

~that you didn’t ‘want’ to, yeah?

Tricky of you...clever of us all.
(~T. Dooley, paraphrased)
+++

Here’s to hoping we all find ourselves, that we can find room inside ourselves FOR ourselves...that we make peace with reality until it becomes what it will...you know...after we do OUR parts.

There’s time and there’s hope.
Yessss, even for you.
Yeah -- YOU.
Think, think; you've done your part, so let go, and

Breathe Deeply~
Peace

President Obama Switched Views On Same Sex Marriage May 11, 2012 7:19 pm
6777 Views

I'm very very proud of him. I'm DEEPLY concerned about equal rights for all of us in general, and those that have had them denied in damn particular.

I wonder if you can fathom why I take it as personal, why I care?
Well, what if I said that having equal protections and rights under law...is a big deal for those denied them?

How can someone not give a shit about the rights of a human, an American, a minority - esp. the last one that's deprived of a right every other minority currently enjoys? How does that work?

+++
Anyway, some have charged that the POTUS did that just to get the gay/LGBT vote -- you reckon?
Could be. Could be not.

Although, I'm unsure how many LGBT voters exist in our electorate that wouldn’t have voted for him anyway, log cabin republicans notwithstanding.

(And I may never understand that, BTW...ppl [republicans that are gay] supporting a party that officially doesn’t support or advocate for their rights...Republican policy demonstrably has NOT.)
Logic Disconnect for me.

+++
Interestingly:

At the beginning of the Civil War, President Lincoln wanted to repatriate freed enslaved people, send them to Africa (Most had never been by this time, so he couldn't send them 'back').
Could Frederick Douglass have helped him change his heart?

President Lyndon Johnson's record in the Senate would indicate that he had no particular affinity toward Black people when he became president.
And in the end, he had a burning passion for civil and human rights.
Could the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. have had a lot to do with that?

Presidents Ronald Reagan and GHW Bush did not support taxation - yet each did. Does anyone know who or what events helped those men change their minds?

Could it have been a grudging acknowledgement that our republic’s government can only function through compromise? That, otherwise, congress would be a solid-block-voting Parliament w/ no room for moderates...another thing our founders seemed paranoid about excluding in their new nation?

And finally, neither as a candidate nor as POTUS, Obama did not support gay rights...to the extent of same sex marriage ...until just recently
So.
Why?

Well, I said all of the above to ask this:

Suppose I said that, as with the presidents that had profound changes of heart mentioned above, above, could Admiral Mike Mullen (former chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff) have begun to soften the president’s heart first with an unwillingness to recognize DOMA?
+++

Already a proof-by-policy champion of gay rights in general, he indicated in his interview how the people, stories, observations and thinking that led him to a change of heart -- supporting the right of same sex individuals to legally marry in particular.
+++

Suppose...

Suppose it's true and natural that people - when learning of others' stories, experiences, and lacks of justice - can and do empathize, and as a consequence, have deep changes of heart?

What if President Obama's motives are what HE says they are instead of what others say they are?

What if it - the reasons Obama gives for his change of heart - is actually what he says it is?
That it’s a far cry from what his detractors claim -- political expediency/calculation alone (or some other cynical, automatic-Obama-disparaging-reason, or purely self-serving motive)?
+++

And by the way - how DOES a person know for sure what someone else’s' motivations (a thing we simply can't prove or disprove) Really Are?

Doesn't it seem that -- even at our telepathic/mind-reading best -- the best we can do is to affirm what something LOOKS/SEEMS like - from our subjective points of view - orrr maybe what something would mean if WE did it/said it, or what some other said THEY meant when THEY did/said something similar?

Who among you likes or allows others to tell you how YOU 'truly/actually' feel, think, or believe?

Imagine.
+++

No need to think about this deeply if your mind is already made...this blog is no good for you -- seems only optimists, idea-searchers or those able to comfortably re-examine long standing beliefs read here anyway.

Fair enough.

So.

Breathe Deeply~

Avoid letting others tell you what your or other people's motivations are...or how you're/they are 'actually' feeling or thinking...and

Peace

...Whose day are you going to Make [Saturday and Sunday]?
-T. Dooley

+++
What if, as Dooley says further, 'it's oftener than not best to presume that everyone either knows the truth/real deal - or - that they will know the truth before long, because ...

either they do, or
they will'?

+++

I'm reminded that the best way to deal with other people (especially some...) is to simply let them be
other people. That's how we want people to deal with us ~

isn't it?

Mm.

Breathe Deeply~
Peace
