Story of the Big Town, Big Sky

"Who are my greatest
spiritual teachers?
Those who have
hurt me the most. "

Shirley Maclaine

But full of little stories: 
the last little house 
on a street in Waikiki

Glimpse of RED

Entire crimson head

“. . . your enemies are 

your best spiritual teachers 

because 

their presence provides 

you with the opportunity 

to enhance and develop 

tolerance, patience 

and understanding.  ” 

 Dalai Lama

If

 you start to notice

something that 

You Do

 -have often done-

But now 

you don't like it,
are

not proud of it --

Celebrate that regret!

It means that You

are growing.

This beats the hell

out of perfecting the

Story

of why you are 

Miserable,

and all beyond your 

own control, 

"Alas."

I prefer scenario #1

owning the jerk I am,

embracing the 

Less-Jerk

I am Becoming.

Perfection stifles

comparisons mere trifles

be ever Mindful;

Intimate

with Revival.

Your Friendly Jerk,
