Homeward bound

Finished with mountain running for now, as well as the big city and alleged centre of the universe.

Grateful for every moment. Even while on the Toronto’s transit system. (It does its best.)

Oceans and home await.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION

This clip is riveting.

Guest Host of Jimmy Kimmel, Jelly Roll, delivers an 18-minute-long monologue on this late-night American variety show. Hear and see the messages of healing, learning, and growth this person simply, eloquently, and beautifully offered.

With such authenticity....

But for those who choose to invest their time, I hope you're moved, too. He is an unusual and effective bridge builder.

STROLLING MEMORY FIELDS

Playgrounds of my past

Whenever near a soccer goal I automatically shift into “keeper mind.”

That’s the process prior to the match start to prepare the physical, emotional and mental aspects.

I was often very nervous. Calming tha mind’s calamity included good housekeeping (ensuring my goal area was free of stones, litter and glass), a 30 minute run, meditation, intention setting then recruiting a team mate to pummel me with hard shots from all angles at close range.

Being a keeper is an ideal position to learn “mind management.” Sadly I did not know much about it then-it wasn’t taught or even known-but now every step taken monitors and manages the mind.

Back then feelings were discouraged, remedied by the words “toughen up butter cup” or some such mostly unhelpful formula.

Now with far greater knowledge of how to manage the mind, despite incessant fears and desires, I practice calming it with each step. It requires lots of practice. Old, unhelpful patterns cling desperately and dissolve slowly.

I remain a work in progress.

Nut seeing the goal net on this field reveals how far I’ve come. And how far to go.

Onward.

For your contemplation

Far more than an entertainer, Ms. Parton taught us all how to be a loving, giving, kind, generous, warm, funny, compassionate, affirming human being in song, thoughts, words and deeds.

Last week at this time: mountains

This week? Steeples.

Saturday morning near the St. Lawrence Market, at St. James Cathedral, Toronto.

Contemplations

“Resting position”

Post ultra recovery.

Flat surfaces. No mountain nearby.

And next: one foot in front of the other and begin to wonder about next years’s 50 mile ultramarathon, God willing.

SACRED MOUNTAIN MOMENTS

One of the many advantages of running long distances up and down glorious mountains and across vast lands.

It’s not this picture. It’s the gift of these moments….is this savouring life?

Perhaps.

For your contemplation

"The strength of a mind might be measured by the amount of truth it could endure."

Friedrich Nietzsche

Observations:

One of the biggest challenges for leaders and their cultures is to see reality-what's so- free from unconscious conditioning, fears and desires.

In fact, it's true for us all. A social media post is woefully inadequate to elaborate. But know this: when a reality comes to us, it can challenge us deeply. Defensive patterns will thwart its removal, though.

Humility is required. That's the opening. Usually humility, the kind that is open to new learning, healing and growth, all of which are often acutely painful, only arises when we're imperilled. On our knees. Desparate.

The study and practice of self-knowledge, to know what it means to be fully
human, frees those limits. The real Self awaits, patiently, awaiting the dissolution of the unconscious fog that obscures it.

We all are far, far greater than we know. And we all are pretty great right now. If only we knew it.

Pic: Farmer's market last Saturday in Squamish, British Columbia, Canada. Taken after my (incomplete) 50-mile ultramarathon there. I was struck by the extraordinary abundance.

It was a theme for that day as I ran up and down mountains and across lands of indescribable beauty.

One of the many benefits of running long distances across the Creator's canvas.
