Exercise

What’s the most fun way to exercise?

Day in and day out, Instagram overloads me with muscle rippling bodies, and supposedly simple ways to achieve them.

But now almost 70 years old it’s not what I’m after. my time of day is in the morning with the sun about to come up. I’ve got my sport shoes on, my EarPods plugged and an audiobook tuned in at the right level.

It’s powerwalking, it’s straining fast with intention, through as much free nature as I can find that invigorates body, mind and soul. Enjoy. Liam

What book could you read over and over again?

Finding INFINITY

Poem: Finding Infinity

by Liam

It’s when my body’s weak, not strong,

My breath, its flow, is soft and slow.

Eyes, they burn,

Onto my aching side, I turn.

Here, thinking is my feeling, Feeling thoughts which intertwine.

It’s deep to reach my inner speech,

Walk around inside my mind.

Those soft persuasive voices,

The conversation between Me and me.

The things I do,

The decisions made,

The here, the now,

The story played,

The wonder of a wish come true,

The simple fact of me and you.

Not time, but rhythm, a calling,

Words, thoughts, we dance, we sing,

Into the music of this space,

All quiet, absolutely true, this ring.

Gratefully gliding, moving,

We spin timeless to the floor.

Serendipity’s grin,

Eternity’s win,

Creativity’s cry,

Magical eye.

Grateful with this art,

Mindful mind, I see, not me.

Nothing, really firm at all,

Happily lost in infinity.

Uniqueness

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

An individual’s uniqueness is a blend of various factors. Genetics, personality, experiences, skills, and talents all contribute to shaping a person’s identity. Additionally, interests, values, physical traits, perspectives, emotional responses, and goals play significant roles in defining who they are. This complex interplay of factors creates a unique individual with a distinct identity, worldview, and way of engaging with the world.

Within this context, each of us recognize particular aspects which are more pronounced or stronger than others. The interplay of each individual is there by unique and authentic, each of us being able to identify strengths and weaknesses, and thereby work on the weaknesses, and use the strengths to help and support others along their journey.

Self understanding

What’s something most people don’t understand?

Understanding our own psychological nature can be challenging for several reasons. One key factor is the complexity of the human mind, which encompasses a wide range of thoughts, emotions, memories, and behaviors. Additionally, our psychological nature is influenced by a variety of factors, including genetics, upbringing, culture, and life experiences, making it a dynamic and multifaceted aspect of our being.

Furthermore, individuals may have unconscious biases, defense mechanisms, or blind spots that can make it difficult to fully understand their own psychological processes. Additionally, introspection, while valuable, may not always provide a complete or accurate picture of our psychological nature, as our perceptions and interpretations can be influenced by a variety of factors.

Overall, the complexity and subjectivity of our psychological nature, combined with the limitations of our own self-awareness, contribute to the challenge of understanding ourselves. Liam

The Stream

Poetry: The Stream

by Liam

Your eyes, behold a depth that mirrors the deep,

Reflection of the stars in their celestial gleam.

Why seek the wet when you are the stream?

In your heart, the source of love runs steep.

Gods essence flows, a pure and gentle dream,

A fountain where thoughts and hopes aspire.

In this embrace, my soul finds its-self on fire,

Forever burning in your enchanting scheme.

No need to search, for you are all we need,

In every drop, your essence I perceive.

An oceanic current pulling me, indeed,

To depths above, where doubts are always relieved.

Immersed, within love’s sweet reign,

We swim the stream, find its domain.

We own the ocean too although,

The dew wets us just the same.

Cosmic Life

Poetry: Cosmic Life

by Liam

In the cosmic play, we each share the heart,

Of this universe’s grand design,

Humanity, we’re not separate, but an intricate part,

Fulfilling itself day by day, line by line.

Our ethereal body, is but a vessel divine,

Thoughts flow freely, in a cosmic stream,

Connect us to the oceanic vine,

A dance of essence, is more than what it may seem.

The universe shares, its cosmic thought,

A gift of wisdom, in a timeless art,

Into my etheric body, it imparts,

How we receive this soulful spark.

We’re not here for ourselves alone,

We’re here to perceive the universe create.

It’s within this vast cosmos, we’ve grown,

Now a part of what we call home.
