I am the fool. I want my way all of the time, with complete freedom. Yet, I am also aware. I see how my actions in life have direct consequences to my own wellness sometimes. The freedom to use a hammer wildly can greatly impact my freedom of enjoying a thumb that does not hurt. “Don’t cross the streams,” I think, like in GhostBusters. Do I know which freedoms I have crossed?
I am a fool. Completely free. I’m also aware. I want it all, but I’m learning that there are trade offs, like hammer and thumb. And while I am free to believe that banging my head against a wall might break it down, I’m also beginning to see that it might be quicker and less painful to use my head for a another function. Do I know how to choose between freedoms?
I am fool. I am aware. I love my freedom, but I really hate stupid tax. Stupid tax is the penalty that arises from not paying attention – and it’s EXPENSIVE. Late bills, lost items, lack of maintenance, failure to prepare. And their natural, painful consequences further compounded by guilt or embarrassment that we chose these paths. Since my current skills don’t seem to be cuttin’ it. Can I learn to choose – to learn- which freedoms have the highest returns?
I fool. Aware. Sometimes I think I’m nuts – cuz I am not sure its freedom I always want. Sometimes I just want less pain. Which learnings have the a highest returns?
Aware. I fool. And, find myself regularly knowing which things are the most important things I don’t know. But, my only freedom seems to be the freedom to follow my ever waking consciousness. Is this all something I should be learning from? Am I fish that became hooked on self knowledge?
Sagefool. I am free to learn whatever I want – and I gain skill at everything I do. I’ve made so many good decisions, I almost never have to chose between freedoms anymore. There is a place for everything and everything is in its place. Of course, except for the places that need to be in constant flux, but there is a place for that. That’s a staging area.
thesagefool – All the world is a staging area, and each of us merely players.
let’s play a fun game.
When it comes, it will be here.
