A poem...

Let there be light...
That was a joke, below is the verse.

Cut Off and Back Again, a thumb-tip's tale...

I cut off the very tip of my left thumb tonight.
It did not hurt as much as I would have expected.
I figuratively cut off a piece of my heart once, and that hurt soul deep.

I AM... that is the truth, it seems I always have been since time began.
Sure, maybe not in this current form, this monster organic machine I call "me".
But, connected to it since there was "it" to connect to... spread out over time and space.

I see that I am a part of the "Way", in the Taoist sense of the word.
The universe congregating in my body and brain so that it can look back on itself and say...
GREAT, NOW LOOK WHAT I HAVE DONE!

-----

I've been White Rabbit rushing to my last day, and am only now beginning to see what the pocket watch has been telling me. It says to me... do you see my smallest hand, it shows you the thing of most importance. It shows that there is no need to rush, that time will pass on it's own and I will get to where I am going, regardless of my relative pace.

The key is to enjoy Wonderland while I am conscious of it.
'Cause soon I will awake and the dream will be over.

When I think I am fast, I look at the light, and feel as if I'm not moving.
When I think I am slow, I look at the stars and feel as if my time is almost nothing.

And most important is that you* know,
I Love You, Thank You... :^)

-Ziv

*"you" is meant to represent the entire universe and everything in it that has brought me to this point, and not just the readers of this blog. Although, my love for you is much more acute.

The Dark Side...

Do we dare say that the moon is two pieces? The light part and the dark part? To do so would make a person look to be a fool. Everyone knows that the Moon is one entity and it's relationship to the light that creates the apparent division. We look at our self and see two (or more) parts, separate pieces that stand alone, a light side and a dark side, the funny and the serious, the virgin and the whore. The truth is that the division is just an illusion, a construct of our unwillingness to intergrate it all into one. It is a trick of the light of our minds. Also powerful, is the reinforcement for this behavior we get from society. Only acceptable if we act not as we truly are, but only what the time and place will allow us to be without pain of punishment in all its ugly forms. What would happen if we saw everything as it is... One complete and undivided unity of energy. With little ripples and eddies that make up more influential parts of space in time. We are a swirlin...

The Value of Procrastination...

For most of my life I have been called a procrastinator. Usually this carried a negative connotation. I have worked hard in my personal habits to be more responsive when asked to do something, but I still have some of this tendency to put things off until later. But, in the last few years, especially as the speed of information flow, the change to systems I work with and the demand on my time increases, procrastinating a little has been a benefit. Let me explain... The common meaning of procrastination involves the deferment of activities to a point where the delay is detrimental to the successful execution of the activity. But, in situations were there are rapidly changing needs, the definition of the need and related activities change as well, and to put in a bit of delay in execution can buffer the dynamic system a bit. The buffer results in the initial set of rapidly evolving changes to be skipped over, and allows the more finalized set of necessary activities to be more clearl...

Transition Phase 1 is Complete...

We have been in Manhattan, KS since the 5th of July. Today, July 14th, the moving company brought our things from Maryland and unloaded it into the house we are renting. It is a really nice place and we are happy to have found somewhere to stay that is walking distance to both of our offices and to almost anything we would want to do in town. We now begin the process of unpacking, arranging and settling in to our new home. Work is going really well and I am now beginning the process of incorporation as I launch my new web services business. The next big milestone will be the sale of our home in Maryland. It is not going to be a very good deal for us, but the seller we bought from and the buyer we are selling to have made out like bandits. I am looking forward to a day to be on the other end of the deal. Life is changing, that is for sure. I open my arms and mind to the unknown as we begin to explore this new place we call home.
