Living the Growingfree SimpleLife
Care to Give It a Try?
Let Life Unfold Naturally
Where Everyday Feels Like a Saturday

We can be with what’s happening and not dissociate.
Awakeness is found in our pleasure and our pain,
our confusion and our wisdom,
available in each moment of our weird,
unfathomable,
ordinary everyday lives.

I took to the woods this afternoon. The Michigan winter weather was favorable, and I wanted to clear my mind.

Coming of aging is becoming wiser as we grow older. At 78 I realized I was rounding the bend to the end. Besides the practicals, I'm discovering poetry, liberation, pathos, and humor.

Say It Loud DEEP GREEN book by Jenny Nazak,
May We Find a Growing Free Life,.........

"If only all we were doing is getting goofy in HOA clubhouses. The problem is much deeper. The NIMBY attitudes; the anti-immigration uprising; the continued hoarding of houses, land, & other resources. The incessant leisure cruises, international air travel vacations. (Vacations from what?? one might ask) The incessant shopping for new stuff. (Hello? We're seniors! Aren't our houses full already yet?) etc etc etc
My generation the Boomers is the most resourced generation in history largely because we were able to plunder & hoard planetary wealth. Under the system of capitalism / settler colonialism / supremacy culture.
Wish we had kept a Woodstock attitude but we turned into Gordon Gekko. So, time for us to wake up! At the root it's really a class war we're dealing with, not a generational war."

"not ok, boomer" slayed me

What Brings Me Joy in 2025?
Just Be, and Be, and Be

Effortlessly;
I Listen with Ease. I Sit very silently, not with attention fixed on anything, not making an effort to concentrate, but with this mind very quiet, really still. Then I hear everything. I hear the far off noises as well as those that are nearer and those that are very close by, the immediate sounds—which means really that I am listening to everything. This mind is not confined to one narrow little channel. I can listen in this way, listen with ease, without strain, and I find an extraordinary change taking place within this body mind, a change that comes without volition, without asking; and in that change I experience great beauty and depth of insight.

Readings From the Woods; The Book of Life; J Krishnamurti;
“I want to tell you something, perhaps the way to find out what is reality—not the way as a system, but how to set about it. And if you can find this for yourself, there will not be one speaker, there will be all of us talking, all of us expressing that reality in our lives where we are….

Truth cannot be accumulated. What is accumulated is always being destroyed; it withers away. Truth can never wither because it can only be found from moment to moment in every thought, in every relationship, in every word, in every gesture, in a smile, in tears. And if you and I can find that and live it—the very living is the finding of it—then we shall not become propagandists; we shall be creative human beings—“

Not perfect human beings, but creative human beings, which is vastly different. There is only the problem; there is no answer; for in the understanding of the problem lies its dissolution. There is no Eden, no heavenly gate, that you're going to make it to one day. But all of the answers you seek can be found in the dreams that you dream along the way. - In other words, it's all in flux, just like Heraclitus said. Life is constant change and a lot of our suffering comes from trying to control what can't be controlled.

Maybe the best you can do is let go into the mystery and love who and what you love, as deeply as you can. I'm not so sure there is a plan, really, or a path. We make it as we walk, which can be a frightening thought. But it can also be liberating. Probably the best bet is to admit we don't know much and just pay close attention, since attention is the purest form of love. The woods are a great place to learn to pay attention, minus the white noise of human striving.

01/02/2025

We need to use our clear reason and intuitive knowingness to determine truth, yet most of us do the exact opposite of this. We assume that what we believe to be true is true and never check to see if it actually is true.

Our feelings, beliefs, and ideas from the past are treated as though they are facts, and then we reason from these imagined facts and find that we are not actually dealing with what is.
There are many people who are always waiting for the next thing to react against, to feel annoyed or disturbed about—and it never takes long before they find it.

“This is an outrage,” they say. “
How dare you….”
“I resent this.”

They are addicted to upset and anger as others are to a drug. Through reacting against this or that they assert and strengthen their feeling of self.

When we see a pattern that has been recurring in our consciousness, we can check to see if it is actually true. We can ask ourselves, "Is this really true or is this a lie or a belief our mind is telling us to distract us from what is?"

This question can simply cut right through. Another thing we can do when we are caught in a lie that the mind is selling us as the truth is to look at the pattern and then notice what would be here if that pattern was not here.

The Sages and Gurus talk about Emptying the Mind, and I have read about, but not given it much thought, mostly because I kept myself in a state of numbness working, attempting to start and run businesses, managing partnerships, and trying to be an Entrepreneur.

Living the Growingfree SimpleLife
Is My Opportunity to Create Meaning

Being present, led me to the practice of discernment: • The ability to judge well • Perception in the absence of judgment • With a view capable of obtaining spiritual guidance and understanding.

“People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.” ~Charles Bukowski
