Living on the Edge

    On the edge of tolerance, on the edge of comfort, on the edge of acceptance, irritation, humor, safety, fear, dread, hope, trust, joy.....edginess is nerve wracking and stimulating. It is disturbing but pushes us on over or back into firmer ground for realignment. Choices can be spontaneous or orchestrated to change or not. We have many crossroads, cliffs, turns, hills and smooth sailings throughout our lifetimes. When the circumstances seem to be precarious, to continue toward that drop off or to turn and move in a new direction can be a momentous time of self direction.

    What are we doing these days as a species? When will we see the big picture and make that decision to turn and regroup? Will we all need to work together or can this new direction for safety and comfort be done on an individual basis? Where are the others who understand?  Why doesn't everyone understand that the free choice for comfort and firm ground is available?

    I once asked a friend psychic who channeled 'the Counsel' for positive advice on why, if everything is connected and the universe is supposed to be so benevolent and human happenings are all ok in the long run, why is there suffering and hate and war and sickness. The rather elevated answer was that some people learn better from conflict. Duh. I guess the ones who don't want conflict are from another school of life. Could that be it? We have different means and ways to process human experience? OK. lets not worry about all the conflicters. Lets get on with the dance. Can it be? That simple? What if they.....CLIFF!
