In one sense,
the Cafe CoOp
started as my therapeutic retirement dream.
But,
in quite another
the CoOp goes back to when I was eight,
and I thought,
assumed really,
everyone indulged in Thought Experiments
about what would my optimal Eden Paradise.
restoring peace and justice across Earth
look like,
feel like,
smell like,
sound like?
And how are these
a response to what I do not currently prefer
to live with,
and without.
Perhaps in both ways,
together,
I began seeing how cooperative aspirations
might become cooperatively owned and, coincidentally,
managed for mutual health care optimization
of all us CoOp EarthCafe residents,
guests,
hosts,
employees,
contractors,
talent,
students,
supported by therapeutic restorative peace
and ego-ecojustice teachers
and mentors
and scripture scholars and WinWin systems analysts,
gardeners
and cooking and preserving and medicinal herb gathering classrooms,
indoors and outside,
and, yes, of course Permaculture Design and CoOperative Implementation
and ReStorative Justice business co-investors in healing,
in family health optimization outcome projections
for 2020 ReStorative Justice
as this healthy community
polyculturing peace-filling outcomes.
All this came quite near a boil
during 2016’s Retributive Nationalistic Patriarchal Lose-Lose Selection
against Constitutional protections of multicultural Welfare pursuits
and against purity and loyalty to democratic global Unity
for PolyCultural Outcomes of Freedom
and CoOperative WinWin Liberties for all species
and subclimates.
My ego’s Yang longing for unity
belonged within Yin-Holonic Restorative Justice aspirations,
EgoLeft with EcoRight,
dualdark,
cosmic cosmological consciousness
of CoOp Cafe karma
growing through self-other co-empathic awareness.
In ZeroSum equivalent FourDimensional RealTime
bilateral Left-Right ecological history
of enculturation,

we all live creolizing best
through Golden NonDual Appositional Rules
to empathize with each Other
within LeftYang and RightYin
as outside too Patriarchal RightWing
with Matriarchal NonZero-Sum WinWin LeftWing suppression
of all CoOp Cafe EarthTribe members,
participants,
witnesses,
teachers,
gardeners,
Permaculture Designers,
ReStorative Therapeutic Justice Advocates.
Why would anyone in their right balanced mind
not want to restore healthy justice
especially while Trumpians and supremacist homophobic allies
rule our most nuclear-risk of climate permanent unrest?
The CoOp Cafe
and our after-school
ReStorative Justice and Peace YouthLeadership Project
started,
in these ways and means
with middle school and high school
and community college students
and performance and journalism teachers,
then adding ReStorative Justice Parent Alliances,
and an early-afternoon crowd coming down the street
after their baked chicken lunches
at St. Vincent de Paul,
asking these same questions,
engaging in similarly themed Thought Experiments.
How do we know 2016,
or even worse,
will never happen again?
In the U.S.,

but also across Earth
in our Cafe CoOps,
wherever we can find and build them together,

I just assumed,
when I was eight,
that these are the ways
others would co-define Paradise
as both Interdependent Earth
and nondually dipolar EmptySet EgoIdentity interiors
because how could we possibly be anything at all
without OriginalMother Sacred Intent
becoming anything more or less
than PolyPathic Yang = Not(Not PolyPhonic MatrioticYin)
because +1 Yang must always double-bind notnot (0),
just as uracil’s form
co-arises
cytosine’s notnot-folding-unfolding flow functions
of bilateral heuristic waves.
If notnot (0) First OriginalCause,
then no possible way
to doubleBind 4D SpaceFractals

notnot what and when and why Lose to Lose
when each is free to choose

when speaking trust within multiple multicultures
and transacting cooperative therapeutic business
and performance arts
and writing,
story-telling
and singing fair and true and just and beautiful lyrics
and dancing lyrically,
standing with vulnerable comedy and tragedy stories,
sweeping in chi gong co-op circle sessions,
breathing through yoga stretching circles and squares,
rectangles,
triangles, maybe,
that would be good;
could feel healthy
for cooling internal climates.
Our Cafe CoOp
started as a collective dream
about where we might feel and be safest
in our restorative vulnerability of co-ownership
with each other,
co-responsible interdependence
between consumers and producers,
between suffering traumatic past investments
and offering care-giving and -receiving therapies
for parenting and healthy childing,
for teaching and wealthy studenting,
for mentoring and menteeing grace
as healthy gratitude,
positive karma attitude
for mutually cooperative multicultural restorations.
So, less mutually competitive mistrust,
bad faith,
negative fear-mongering lifelessness,
depression and repression
and suppression
of all Matriotic ReStorative Wisdom Circles
and ego-eco balancing nature-spirit practices
of bilaterally empathic practices
for basic enthymematic
polydigmatic
co-empathic development
of maturing GoodFaith CoOp Cafe Management.
In one multiculturing sense,
our EarthTribe Cafe CoOp
started as everyone’s therapeutic retirement dream
coming together
for mutually restorative purposes.
