Nudging Creative Passions

What are fair and effective nudges
for too much freedom of weaponed wounding speech?

Maybe equal freedom to listen nutritionally
and not poisonously?

What’s a fair response
to competitive over-investment in fear-mongering–
Threats to hold your breath ’til everyone sees red?

What’s fair, right and left,
for government freedom to WinUs
by LosingThem,
by punishing Them
and not Us
for toxic messes made together?

What’s a fair nudge
to our collective enculturing WeSelf
for losing both Us and Them
through unnecessarily aggressive agendas?
Replacing social sanctuaries
with sadistic incarcerations,
Substituting shrinking wellness
with swelling commodification.

Polypaths co-acclimate tracks back through WiseElder
co-passionate forests
following our rich neural well-bred histories
retold through Her ReCreation Stories.

Music
poetry
dance,
all the Beauty and Wisdom,
Mythic and Logos Voices
therapeutically nudge us toward we-healthing cooperativity,
ego-terminal cases of co-passion tracks,
re-telling past journeys slow, then fast.

Rhythmic nudging relationships,
personal
and politically multigenerational,
not growing in passion
are dying through dispassionate lack
of cooperative investment.

A significant difference between retirement,
leisure,
and modern industrial automated competing life,
Business As Aggressively Usual,
is:
When younger I needed an early morning alarm
to nudge me into beginning to meditate.
Now, older,
I need a resonant chime noon nudge
to invite me to end my daily resilient medication,
to continue more active PM education,
to cultivate non-violent internal
and external
communication.

Internal and external governments
best start nudging agreements small
and build out from what we are healthy doing,
where we’re already growing,
when we are most likely to feel at peace,
satisfied with integral me/we
engaged mornings and afternoons,
possibly even temporarily enchanting evenings,
curious building courageous will
to find sufficient investment speed of NowTime
celebrating our already existing Sabbath resilience,
weaving co-operativity,
knitting compassion networks, memory fabric
transubstantiating in/ex-formation
flowing nutritional effluence,
dualdark breathing
breeding in
out harmonious Left
Right consciousness listening
especially for outdoor sacred liturgical voices
best heard through small progressive ears of a healthy child
still hopeful of WinWin resonant bicamerality,
inside and outside
between growing ego-conscious universal paradigms
and uniting eco-home awareness,

Yang nudging Yin
humoring Yang’s strong impatience
to restore EarthJustice
red through green
in ultra-nonviolent revolutions
for/of co-passion’s peace,

Taoist EcoPassions

In Taoism
as I have experienced it so far
embracing ancient nature/spirit wisdom
of Yang strength gospel anthems,
ecologically singing in all four seasons of color,
theologically dancing,
psychologically balancing,
biologically dominant and recessive reweaving combinations,

All these invite Sabbath memory
co-arising Holonic YinFlow

BiLaterally multiculturing everyday Sundays
in and from and for now
and forward,
and back into original baptism in
cooperatively shared nutritional economies
emerging from SabbathEve’s matriarchal womb,

Interdependently regenerational EarthWomb,
cooperatively-managed,
ego-egg and eco-conceivers,
sacred environmental receivers,
and givers
of health care practice
with WinWin healthy baby/mom co-insurance.

Or,
having a really bad
toxic
pathological
entropic
degenerative moment,
or day,
or week,
maybe a month or more
of chronic anxiety
about climate changes uninvited,
internally
and/or externally felt too-pregnant.

Power: Love v Whatever

What might it take for love to conquer anger
fear
hate?

How is holistic compassion already more contagious than a-holistic self-hatred,
we-hatred?

There is more than one way to hear a**holistic here,
but they all have to do with sectarian divides,
sometimes felt more intimately, reductively personal,
and sometimes more transparently, seductively political,

Sometimes closer to home-caused and owned,
and therefore remedied,
and sometimes more great transitional,
and therefore more uncooperatively and disintegratively,
deductively,
unholistically,
sectarianly,
violently communicating
and pro-actively transporting
toxic viruses across monoculturing unhealthy unwealthy
absence of passionately healing opportunities.

Growing holistic compassion,
like growing organic THC,
depends on environmentally empowering supports
for positive,
healthy,
resilient relationships
with all Earth’s co-passionate NatureSpirit systems
and ecotherapeutically integral strategies
for wealth optimizing health,
mental and physical,
spiritual and natural,
theological and ecologically inter-related,
co-arising dipolarities
of contrasting inside and outside Janus-faces
internally/externally co-passionate.

Compassion for oneself opens doors
and windows of consciousness
to pro-actively discuss changes toward robust health
with others
within an authentically wealthy and responsive society
with mainstream healing,

Rather than too often punishing deviance from bullish patriarchal nihilism,
meekly acclimating to non-relational toxic neglect,
failure to nutritionally appreciate yourself,
ourselves,
for who we truly
compassionately already are,
at least in our best positively deviant moments.

So, there lies our individual fundamental key to happiness
by moving from self-punishing habits of thought
and feeling entitled to misdemeanors
and even more aggressive and violent felonies
unreceptive
unpardonable blocks to this journey turning toward compassion
for oneself
spouse
kids
neighbors
community
state
nation
animals
plants
Earth, now
past
and compassionately revolutionary future
Great GoldenRule Transition.

Investing in self-judging voices,
You screwed up again!
You are worse than useless!
You are lazy,
have no healthy work ethic,
want to play all the time
like an irresponsible two year old!
On and on and on…

Such self-afflictions are way less compassionately healthy
than calmly accepting past errors,
sins against compassioning humanity,
without absolving yourself of therapeutic reparations,
carrying all these negatives more lightly
as also enlightening potentially positive partial truths
validly applied to all of us
on our worst days
and most uninvited moments
reacting to perceived neglect, abuse,
shame
blame
diverse toxic pain

While living together in God/Gaia’s city (farm, sanctuary) on the Hill
is more about our universal SuperEgo’s bicameral pilgrimage
to restore Earth’s original holistic compassion.

Passion between a judgmental LeftBrain,
seeking retributive justice,
and a more compassionate RightBrain holism,
longing to restore resilient peace,
wealth of health,
without division between LeftBrain’s sectarian divisions
between what is natural and what grows spiritual

Secular/Sacred cultural divides
grow invisibly transparent outside/inside contrasts
in ancient WilseElder RightBrain memory,
rooted in narcissistically sectarian and co-passioned experience,

WinWin v LoseLose,
political health v economic/ecological toxicity,

Domestic/Global co-passions,
bicultural
binomial
supported by multicultural cooperative responsibility
for actively pursuing health through positive passions.

Passion opens doors to external/internal,
even international/individual
compassionate ecopolitical health outcomes,
planning,
aspirations,
deep learning environmental incoming support
for further positive passion iterations

Deepening robust webs and buds of healthy future
secularLeft/sacredRight WiseElder evolutions,
DNA structurally supported
WinWin non-violent expectations
self-reported

Positive psychological
and political
holistic compassioned powers
polypathically as accessible as green organic grass.

Wounded Passions

Starting this day
already seduced by full-color compassion,
with some competing-for-time distractions
in the more sadly usual recessive role,
raises wellness questions
with healthy co-passioning answers,
responsive responses more resiliently co-present
than pathological ego-manic fears
about my immediate physical future
and anger about our collective lack of compassionate history
and inclusive culture,
educational enrichments
and social norms
and active multiculturing values

Spreading virally across this
and every
compassioned day.

While finger shaping wounded daughter’s wild
African-American mane,
and walking hand in insecure hand
up our gravel driveway,
I flash back to last night’s conversation
with Freud on my left
lecturing Jung on my right
about his SuperEgo
driven by patriarchal compassion,

Which Jung felt was a soft oxymoron,
hidden as yin
on a bold sunny
war-mongering summer day,

While Freud moved on to his Id,
with LeftBrain dominant narcissism
but also, perhaps,
recessive matriarchal compassion
he had not recognized
while male embodied,

Which Jung co-passioned
Perhaps Freud’s Id resembles LaoTse’s bipolar narcissistic Yang Supremacy
headed for an Anima-flow fall
into co-passionate love,
if RightBrain compassionate feelings, of Jaynes,
and bilateral thoughts, of De Bono,
could ever find enough compassion together
to grow more holistic integrity
of positive therapeutic co-passions,

While Freud had returned front and center
to egocentric narcissism

Which Jung felt speaking Yang
to co-passionate listening Yin,
Animus
with dipolar co-arising AnimaFlow

Sometimes enchanted with positively resonant swells
and sometimes negatively distracted
by dissonant
distant
repressed
suppressed
unimpressed valleys

Dips in resilient positive communication trends
disturbed by dissonant negative resistance
of LeftBrain Animus narcotics,
narcissism,
colonialism
patriarchalism
sexism
racism,
fears about missing out on future healthy regenerations
and anger about having lost Animus with Anima
resilient co-passion.

Meanwhile,
Freud went back to his ongoing compassionate conversation
with his Jungian Anima RightBrain SuperEgo-Eco self.

Funny,
wild tangled communication potential
shaping into something more than too-aggressive pulling
and shoving
and shouting
rather than hand in wounded hand co-passion
on her AnimaMundi way
into a cooperative SuperEgo and competitive Id
ambivalent classroom,

Preaching Freudian SuperEgo resilience of compassion
but, like obedient capital-trained LeftBrain economists
and parents
and teachers,
and Yangish evangelistic preachers,
mentoring rather too much ego-manic
narcissistic powers to over-rule
where positive ego/eco-passions could mutually arise
healthier
wealthier futures of Earth compassion,
breathing in
and out again
the wounded polypathic same.

National Narcissism

Nationalism,
like other faces of narcissism,
speaks in ways devoid of integrity,
authenticity,
global transparency,
empathy,
active power and authority of and for,
from and toward, resilient energy,
compassionate wealth of health,
resonant power,
regenerative EarthPassion,
more like internationalism,
like other faces of multiculturalism

Psychological, and yet political,
neurological, and yet also economic,
ecological, but potentially E-CoOperative Networked,
messianic, yet also eco-bodhisattva theocratic,
non-violent and enthusiastically non-sectarian,
universal Yang with unitarian Yin,
LeftBrain bipolar, except within RightBrain dipolar, co-passioned,
ZeroSum secular Energy,
winning by also winning ZeroZone Light/Power sacred Source

Healthy paradigmatic systems
engaging intuitively wealthy FlowPower,
Here co-arising not not Now, again reiterating
WinWin 4D space within ZeroSum bilateral time-range

Political and economic arts of proportion,
balance,
symmetry,
ego/eco-passion
informed by LeftBrain articulating rational sciences,
deep learn authentic nutritional values
for yang’s democracy conserving system strengths
with yin’s compassionate energy/power,
liberally effluent, yet efficient, resilience

Across canvases
lyrics
indigenous choreography,
power and energy creation paradigms
multiculturing robust evolutionary flow charts
effectively co-operative reverse-hierarchies,
eco-art therapies for political and economic ego sanctuary,
co-passionate expression
Left with Right,
West with East,
North with South
polypathic multicultural power/energy
in ego’s Earth CoPassion

Communicating across resonant bilaterals
far more resiliently than nationalistic
ballistic narcissism’s
short-term
anti-empathic
survival of the not fit-iningest strategies.

WhiteHouse Narcs

I’m hearing considerable chatter about patriarchal narcissism,
which is, indeed, absorbing and darkly fascinating;

But, I do wish we could invest at least twice as much energy
on analyzing climate therapeutic potential
of ecofeminist compassion,
re-synchronizing Time’s sacred-secular co-investments
re-combining healthy bicameral minds
re-linking wealthy co-passionate bodies,
domestic
and external.

Passion Time

Within the beginning
was compassionate Time.

And Time grew self-regenerating Space,
mindful Bodies,
revolving Earth,
evolving EarthTribe
emerged without image-able eternity,

Without freedom from ego mortality;
With freedom to re-image, re-link eco-reality
passion stories,
from Time
to Time.

Universal Alpha then, becoming Integral Omega now,
without, now within memory,
Earth down, co-arising Heaven up,
near, seduced from afar,
repeating breath, from resilient light,
Left, from WiseElder Right,
Deduction, remembering bilateral Health/Wealth Inducements,
Compassion, empathic Passion, recreative
without narcissistic DisPassion,
degenerative, growing regenerations of co-passionate Time.

Empowering Passions

In passionate psychology,
powers of proactive compassion
are generally thought of in personal
and familial
interdependently relational
perspectives.

In political science,
large-scale powers for proactive compassion
resist reactive competition to merely overpower the opposition,
preferring pro-active energy for liberal love
constrains against investments in conserving capital-hoarding capacities
feeding and fueling multi-generational greed of privileged inheritance,

Social altruism and political violence, passion’s contrasting powers
might restoratively or retributively justify
ethically valid and morally effective resolutions
even if not immediately peaceful and universally democratic,

Robust political powers
are typically thought of as the great and mighty public sector
applying state and national perspectives,
stories,
power histories advocating cooperative public policies
and commercially marketing unnecessarily risky investments in egocentric competition chaos,
reductive consumerism,
conflicting materialism,
greed,
mendacity,
hubris,
anthro-centrism,
aggressive nationalism,
violent racism,
deadly fascism,
enslaving colonialism,
toxic patriarchalism, etc.

In psychology,
we can easily extend cooperative power
to neurology’s integrity of positive energy,
active internal networking,
contrasted with disintegrity of negative power,
fading energy thoughts,
extinguishing co-empathic feelings,
feeding on internal climates of hostility,
paranoia,
rabidity.

In political science
we could extend power as analogous to economic energy,
cooperatively democratic investment in actively healthy compassion,
investment in integrity,
and a darker competitive run-away dysfunctional
nationalistic
supremacist energy unmindful of deadly ecological chaos,
delusional divestments away from nutritionally balanced systems,
disturbing dis-integrity of public sector negative energy,
entropic
nihilistic
health-threatening policies,
procedures,
competitive educational protocol,
psychological preferences for Win/Lose behaviors
and thinking and assumptions underlying unmitigated
fight or flee capitalism.

National health power, and not pathological disempowered feelings,
extend positive energy climates
of active democratic co-passionate WinWin missions

Antithetical to reactive
plutocratic capitalism,
kleptomanic exploitation,
A more narcissistic,
sometimes even sadistic,
sense of fear-mongering
hate-marketing
anger-imaging sedition
from global promise of healthy power futures
for integrity’s compassionate eternal ZeroSum energy,
not not interdependent organic neural roots.

When our individual actions
do not reflect our personal powers for extending compassion,
then we can choose to train
and plan
and network for healthy positive multiculturing change
systems.

But, what to do
when public sector actions,
choices,
priorities,
do not reflect one’s compassionate power/energy political training
committed to international EarthEmpowerment
deep learning,
wide-passioned teaching,
polypathic cooperative education,
co-passionately non-violent listening before speaking?

How do democratically faithful psychological individuals
and compassionate faith-in-action political communities
restore healthy peace
and non-sectarian informed justice for all EarthTribes?

Indigenous,
and yet emigrating;
Immigrant,
and yet already green sanctuaried;
Healthy-life pilgrims,
guest migrant laborers, producers, consumers, families,
evolving communities whose only talking-walking labor
is to survive competitive
commercialized
retributive justice normative educational systems
suspicious of diversely compassionate climates
and politically cooperative co-passionate teachers
advocating long-term green regenerative synergy,
secular with sacred nature/spirit communions,
wealth of authentic long-term health paradigms.

How do we cooperatively and resiliently continue
to financially and communally support
government leadership
compliant, not defiant,
with universally shared non-sectarian values
for a democratically inclusive health and happiness prosperity
of resilient energy systems
rooted in organically compassionate historic constitutions?

Where do we draw the compassionate line
around anti-democratic narcissistic violations
of ego- and eco-therapeutic constitutions?
Positively professed for true national democratic health
truly secular/sacred prosperous
non-sectarian happiness
enchantment
ecstasy
WinWin bliss
everyday loving and mindfully interdependent passion.

January Calendar

Opening a new 2019 calendar,
January unveils an Arctic Wildlife Refuge view
of glaciered mountains
behind a frozen river
surrounded by bedrocks
grey and bleak black
and rusty brown.

The Wilderness Society caption
claims this as our “treasured landscape
that the indigenous Gwich’in people” name,
proclaim?
“Sacred Place Where Life Begins.”

Rather than
The same old frigid and barren secular place
where any decent life
could only abruptly end
in hopeless frozen defeat.

This juxtaposition seems to capture essential compassionate v narcissistic
human destinies of choice.

Both Wildlife Refuge views
could be valid,
but the indigenous birthplace choice
to see opportunity
feels more integratively useful,
more communion sustainable,
resilient, rather than bitterly brittle.

The Dalai Lama teaches,
and presumably practices,
as have other messianic/bodhisattva re-creations,
a distinction between empathic pictures
and compassionate stories.

Empathy may associate with RightBrain feelings
of happiness and despair,
ecstasy through hopeless disenchantment,
with some Other
past,
present,
future,
human,
animal,
plant,
planet…

Compassion is more about LeftBrain planning
what I, we, cooperatively together
walking in newborn, reborn solidarity
will do to heal wounds, minimize risks,
and more resiliently sustain sacred opportunities
for unborn future life.

Empathy opens windows,
pictures,
landscapes,
refuges,
sanctuaries toward proactive
cooperative co-passion.

Practiced,
informed,
experienced,
trained,
educated,
supported development of co-responsibility,
integrity,

Synergetic vulnerability,
matriarchally cooperative wombs,
open life to empathy,
co-empathy,
eco-empathy with wounded and therapeutic lifelines,
compassionate rebirth conquering narcissistic pre-death

In 2019,
2020,
and so on.

To act with integral allegiance

Cannot be done both violently and resiliently,
invalidly yet effectively,
competitively against each other,
without deeply listening to not-x,
without looking into our potential victim’s eyes,
without pro-actively extending compassion.

If we look together
at Earth’s modern history of global warfare,
We can see the primary outcome of WW1,
sowing the seeds for WW2.

WW2, however,
began sowing seeds of uniting nations
and universally non-sectarian EarthCare,
healing hate-mongered aggressive wounds
of white patriarchal privilege,
human climate of industrial supremacy,
LeftBrain deductive-reductive plutocracy.

Now, approaching 2020 historic revision
with a new WinWin potential integrity
for WWW post-millennial binomial capacity,
we can compassionately re-image WW3,
inviting each democratic heart
loyal to each cooperatively self-managed nation-state x
allied with all secular and/or sacred non-sectarian EarthTribes y
to embrace compassionate WholeSystem health care
for all climates
all paradigms
all histories and stories and creating cultures
of all compassionate light

measuring eternal x
in orbits of bright

Passionate peace longing to understand x
and non-violent surrounding y-compassions,
