Dubie’s Thought of the Day:
Don't follow those who hate, all they have to teach is fear.
Follow instead those who love for they can teach true courage.

A little happiness to lead into the weekend...
A guest post from Mac…
We Don’t Have to Look Far
...but we do have to look.
Sometimes…
Happiness is
Barking with your friends
A cozy bed
A morning nap after breakfast
At other times…
Happiness is
A smile from a stranger
A cheezy meme
Hugging a tree just because it’s there.
At all times…
Happiness is.

Dubie's Thought of the Day:
We are our own best teachers;
each day a new opportunity
to remind ourselves of
the connection we all share
the good each of us creates
and the incredible love we are capable of
By being
fearlessly generous
trusting freely
loving abundantly
and relearning how amazing it is just to be alive!

Dubie's Thought of the Day:
Let's learn to love our triggers.
Treasure maps
To our lost pieces.
Let's gather them up;
Sit with them;
Embrace the disappointments
To dispel their gloom
And light our way home.

I Find It Difficult to Write
(Guest Post From Mac)
It is hard to write these days.
At least in a public way.
Surrounded by demands to be afraid
Outraged at every turn
AI
Wars
Gas prices
Masked secret police executing peaceful protesters
the end of democracy,
our economy,
no jobs,
no hope,
holy fuck…
Pepper spray is the only sweetness to be found in this rose.
Manifesting a veracious appetite for peace and well being
social media sprang into being.
Conflict without end.
All consuming.
All co-opting.
One goal to be gained from an ever decreasing source.
Terror and hate monetized.
We have become the grass, the cow, and the hearty steak on the billionaires’ plate.
Tax the rich,
eat the poor,
comply with the oligarchy and their badge festooned monks of violent coercion.
Are you from here?
Do you have a job?
In what ways are you available for exploitation?
AI will end your career!
Better learn how to use AI!
Your intelligence isn’t valuable anymore when it comes to my profit.
8 million people in the streets asking politely for a few crumbs and the illusion of respect.
8 million people sacrifice their weekends to make sure they don’t sacrifice their owner’s margin.
Enslaved to fiction we toil in fear.
Enslaved to convenience we eschew our freedom.
Enslaved by valueless expressions of merit we gather dollars,
Focused on escaping the misery of the effort.
What the fuck is going on?
Chaos is the unavoidable condition.
Control the source of suffering.
Drip drip drip the water rises.
Drip drip drip the chamber fills.
How will we breathe if we can’t walk away?
How can we walk away if this is our only path?
How can we see the open field unless we wake up
and end this dream?
How can we learn to write again
When the only place we can start from is here?

Dubie's Thought of the Day:
The power of humanity doesn't come from our ability to answer questions, but from our desire to ask them.
Snuggles in the thinking seat…

Dubie's Thought of the Day:
Peace is the ability to say, “this path is mine and i would wish for no other.”

Fuck it, just let go
Do not be pushed. This is
Yours. Complete it…
