For Your Information
FYI: White House
FROM: Mother Earth
In case you, or anyone you know, is possibly listening,
wanted to mention,
Climate change is a catastrophic NATIONAL,
even international, DISASTER;
a poly-psychopathic source of extreme dissonance.
Anyone who knows our butts
from a BlackHole in the universe
will agree with you and me
on that singular point
legally and morally defining
a national climate of disaster,
dissonance, cognitive and affective and ineffective,
both psychologically and politically,
both realistic and effective only for feeding terror
(speaking of extensively traumatic anti-family disvalues),
shock and awe,
extreme rabidity,
manic-depression,
narcissistic anthropocentric cynicism,
Earth-matricide, etc.
Health and wealth losses due to illicit travel
over the U.S.-Mexico border:
NOT a disaster,
although probable cause for impatient patriarchal irritation
of the posterior,
No matter how many hours
or days
or weeks
or months you invest
in trial-ballooning
historical comparisons
and hysterical confusions
between authentic National Disasters
and nationalistic patriarchal concerns,
misogynistically irritating issues
about patient sufficiency of time
to feed your four to eight year politically bountiful posteriority.
Not having a physical wall
to presumably ease your narcissistic bad temper
about illicit travelers from Mexico
into the USA’s multiculturally great sacred Bounty
is also NOT a national emergency
way to respond to a NOT even close to an emergency,
more of a chronic supremacist stress syndrome.
The construction of defensive/offensive walls
is NOT an opportunity for internationally friendly investment
in wealthy resilient climate care.
Rather more of a scandalously toxic investment
in an anti-cooperative anti-environmental incorrect Wall
between what God has planted together,
North and South and Central,
red and yellow
black and white
We are precious in His 2020 sight,
so you best watch your wall-building competition steps.
Under the WinWin presumption
that violently narcissistic non-communication
was not your primary goal
when committing to invest in your current Presidential leadership role,
I would further suppose you have no interest
in casting yourself as the AntiChrist,
or ReverseBodhisattva, kind of a Badhi-unsattva Fool,
in a future Michael Moore film
about how to Make America Grotesque Again.
How do we perpetuate our neighbor’s view
that we are grotesquely ugly Americans?
Let’s build a wall,
with the ugly side facing out
and the cynical blonde and blue-eyed side facing in,
rather than our compassionate side facing out
and our more cooperative economic climate
refacing democratically universal positive energy within.
Compassion Politics
In good government sectors,
Inside capital-driven outside energized urban environments,
In healthy cooperative societies,
In proper green-civilizing schools,
and domestically robust economies,
Outer boundary views
remain openly and resiliently cooperative,
while less universally compassionate internal views,
from within each everyday and night non-sabbath,
non-elite ego-fragmentary, yet still eco-interdependent parts,
may compete for fair healthy investment share
to become sufficiently noticed
known
and appreciated.
In privately incorporated company(ies),
competition schools
and within ZeroSum economic assumptions:
If humanity Wins
then Earth must inevitably Lose,
promoting political systems running away
without balancing ecologically empowering economies,
Outer culture-boundary views
appear ponderously, narrowly, thickly, impermeably closed-off
by past competitions in self-defensive ego-promotion,
While more internal cooperative cultures
may privately long for healthier resilience,
for wealthiest co-passioning market corners,
cracks
healing positive revolutionary feelings and needs
to restore paid forward forgiveness
healing neglected, yet still malleable,
co-responsive climate fissures.
Despotic WalledSystem defensive dogma,
personally narcissistic
and politically cynical
and economically sadistic,
with realistic faith only in competitive business predators
result in short-term divestments away from cooperatively-owned health,
with outcomes stealing from next year’s
next generation’s authentically open opportunities
to compete against time
to cooperatively win
Earth’s annual health-market popularity contest,
A realistically healthy government sector
invests Earth-patriotically
ego-rationally
and eco-logically
in deep learning economies
promoting long-term communally resilient health
re-investments of and for Earth’s positively energetic democracy.
Avoiding Draining Dissonance
Aspiring for WinWin cooperative outcomes
is a prerequisite of non-verbal
non-competitive communication behaviors,
as non-violent communication climates
and humane cultured environments
are responsive
to verbally cooperative hope
committed to resilient good-faith communication.
Cynicism and anger and fear and greed
are not as contagious
as hope and happiness and good humor and generosity
when these are as effectively
and consistently WinWin communicated
non-violently
as their darker bipolar cousins are not watered,
understood as too aggressive,
too competitively communicated
through uncaring aggressive actions and/or words,
behaviors and cognitive-affective belief systems.
WinWin cognition cultures and feeling climates
are more nutritionally contagious,
more politically and personally effective
than WinLose viral cynic contagion
when positive hope is supported
by a healthy cooperative personal
and environmental
therapy-fueling investment in co-ownership,
feeding eco-stewardship
because WinWin is our original nurtured experience,
our default birthright
while still immersed in a neural developing system
inside our individual EarthMother nutritional womb.
We each know WinLose cynicism about WinWin potential
is adolescently learned through growing egocentrism,
LeftBrain dominant EitherWin/OrLose deductions
reductively contagious toxic behavior
and bad faith passive-aggressive expression
of cognitive-affective dissonance,
disinvestment away from mature WinWin health,
nutritionally nurtured
and originally polypath-natured
enspirited
contagious good healthy humors
Positive and negatively viral
for the same reasons
we associate tears of happiness with hope
and tears of anger with despair,
personal and political,
egocentric and ecosystemic,
yang with yin,
left with right, co-passionate contagions
Courageous verbally articulated wonder
with curious non-verbal silent awe,
Politically staged
with resilient economic WinWin co-operative fuel,
producing polyculturing flowers
with healthy everybody wins curiosity,
exploration,
creolizing self-as-other discovery,
mesmerizing heuristic root systems
volcanically erupting into deeper fertile soils,
pan-sectarian hope-filling souls
Aspiring to cooperative WinWin outcomes
invested in non-competitive communication behaviors
and voices
and original nutritional intent.
Green Democratic ClimateTherapy
Cognitive behavioral therapy
is also compassionate WinWin behaviors with positive belief,
active good faith
both natural and spiritual,
abiding health only in co-relational solidarity,
Left with Right
YangNature passioning YinSpirit
ego- with eco-therapy.
Ego’s behaviors expressing EcoHabitat’s beliefs,
Integral bilateral faith
in environmentally impassioning communal output
Healthy outcomes invite further non-violent communication,
active hope grows WinWin integrally multilateral democratic discernment
and communal Trust
in interdependently individual Truths
unveil more than their summed parts,
exponential empowering ego with eco-interdependent
compassionate enlightenment.
Polypathic pan-paradigmatic spans
for and of tran-systemic EarthBound passions
spawn healthy DNA seeds,
root systems dynamically internal
and external deep-creolizing organic nutritional webs
defining refining ZeroZone networks
for future co-passion planning
places in spaces
timing timeless traces
To re-incarnate grace,
transparent truth and beauty living,
vulnerably loving
bicameral YangYin external with internal cooperating ownership
co-passioning administrations
engaging communications
verbal and non-verbal peace managing
therapeutic health
now at wealth-optimizing hand
and bicameral mind
and bilateral cognitive-affective therapeutic behavioral belief,
humbling humane Truth with divine Beauty
integrity communion potential,
cooperative gratitude dominant,
negative ego-attitude more gracefully recessive.
CognitiveAffective behavioral-belief compassioning therapy
for and of this our GreenEarth
informing with exflowing co-operative health vocations.
Massively Mediated GreenPeace
Recent confrontations
between older RightWing defenders of orthodox violence
and younger LeftWing liberators for inclusive cooperative peace
and restorative,
therapeutic green justice,
have all been massively mediated
between Donald Trump’s Make America Grotesque Again campaign threats
to promote unhealthy narcissistic uniformity
against more LeftWing integrity
of democratic hearts
for liberal humane-divine love.
Personal political experience
has taught more faith in cooperative webs of interdependent compassion
more cooperatively powerful
than competitive walls
of hostile military-industrialized
automated ballistic autonomy.
Rather than an explicitly resilient conversation
about what we hope to healthy achieve
through wealth of compassion
and co-empathic democratic powers
with all natural/spiritual
ego/eco-energetic people,
non-violent plants
and non-sectarian planet,
The candidates for WiseElder defense
of orthodox Business As Usual capitalistic Truth,
when WinWin cooperative GoldenRule confronted,
resisted,
questioned,
by actively hopeful universally democratic youth
for liberally compassionate unitarian liberty
confront a hypothetical Wall
to deny non-apartheid neighbors,
Walls not so overly defensive for White male property enslaving owners inside
significantly contributing to further pathological sectarian divides
rooted in ignorance
suspicion,
supremacy theories
That White northern and western males
were, and are,
more clearly incarnating King James translations
of White male God’s divinely imaged inspired intentions
granting privileged grace
for evangelical BadNews WhiteMale Elders
Colonizing their weaker, but gratuitously better, half RightBrain minded women
and children
and indentured servants
until we get their Win/Lose ballistic and high-walled defenses
more right
than networking compassionately left
dismissively unmediated
through cynical attachments
more WinLose toward long-term climate LoseLose
than rapturous WinWin,
both short and long-term
ego- and eco-systemic healthy wealth.
Green Integrity
A community’s healthy destiny
is found in humanity’s wealthy integrity.
Humanity’s healthy integrity
unfolds within communion’s wealthy destiny.
Communion’s healthy destiny
folds and unfolds
with non-violent communication’s wealthy integrity.
Active hoping as part of a community’s green destiny
is re-found
re-bound
re-wound within each ego-humanity’s wealthiest GoldenRule integrity.
Therapeutic Tinted Thoughts
Therapeutic thoughts have feelings
of resonance and dissonance
as healing behaviors have internal beliefs
motivating
inspiring spirited resilience
and passions for love
surpassing anger,
compassion
conquering all dispassions,
positive attraction
reconnecting past negative revulsions.
Feelings have internal colors
compassionate green health environments
and narcissistic snarky red hot interiors
and radiant blue light
and absorbing yellow warmth,
and many multiculturing other hues
and cries for resonant ultra-violet peace
with black and white and brown restoring justice
not so much grey-scaled punishments
for too liberally
compassionately coloring outside
proper eco-political WinLose lines,
social walls of propriety
against impropriety of full-scale wildly imaginative colors.
When I heard Caillou’s white-speak mother
inform her son,
Red is the correct Valentine’s color of love,
I knew this could not be my whole virtuous enculturing story
because red is also the color of bloody fraternity
and viciously escalating anger,
Healthy passioned red
or short-flaring diseased fear
of overpowering betrayal,
losing power to overcome
threats to green therapeutic self-portrayal,
regenerative esteem
virtuously red-blooded,
Surrounded and benignly invaded
by green nature,
yellow absorbing internal blue heedfulness,
caution,
discerning nurtured feelings
attributed by more dissonant color relationships
said and sung in virtuously harmonious major,
and viciously dissonant minor, keys,
round co-relational octaves of color
revolving rhythmic qualities fueling flow,
Morally affluent yang prescriptions
with ethically effluent yin descriptors
of exterior green sanctuary natures
with interior red-blooded
DNA ultra-violet
communicating nonultra-violent
recycling nurture wheels
of resiliently felt therapeutic thoughts.
The Neighbor’s Wife
He’s been struggling with depression,
She said, so then have I.
It’s our bad news
that competing depressions
breed more contagiously
than our cooperative feeding happiness.
Yet our good news grows:
Depression and positive impression
are equally contagious passions
pastimes
eruptions into changing flowstreams of consciousness,
evolving conscientiousness,
naked intention,
interdependent awareness,
enchantment and disenchanting stories,
natural causes spiriting effects causing co-acclimating affects,
positive and negative passions,
pressures,
impressions,
compression.
I’ve been struggling against his self-repression,
she said,
so then he worries about his oppressive powers
financial and political and emotional,
physical and mental.
He doesn’t hit me
or any sentient being
but scares me when he hits
and manhandles against his phone,
kicks against his car,
strikes against his walls and doors and windows,
his property he most interdependently cares about,
relies upon.
This chronic environment of fear,
seeing his violent anger
causes our climate anxiety
and a lack of safely transparent expression,
chronic non-vulnerable repression.
The difference between my suppressed fear feelings
of repression
and his depressed anger feelings,
threatening to disinvest oppression
despite his great attraction to Us,
is a real-talk difference
only if we both know
we are each free to affordably leave,
cut our future health-opportunity losses,
without threat of violent and impoverishing repercussions.
While a free Get Out Of Jail card
and a blinking Safe Exit sign
over our back doors
and front doors
and aside windows
are not much for sharing journeys toward active compassion,
co-operative wonder,
interactive awe,
mutual health and happiness,
prosperous food for mental fitness,
Yet neither is flood insurance
a sign of bad faith in safe and dry land
mutually affordable re-assurance.
Oppression
is aggressive repression
without freedom to exit
And ego repression
is eco-systemic depression
without mutual freedom to catch and re-catch compassion
with and for each faithful interdependent Other,
sentient and sensed as a safe alliance
for absorbing resonance
And practicing mutual reliance,
practicing re-alliance,
practicing integrity of positive contagious co-passions.
Negative depressions stem from lonely longing
origins internal and external,
As positive impressions
grow from practiced compassion,
Solidarity belonging and bred
within eco-cooperative fed
root nutritional systems,
Fitness energy for actively appreciating
each wounded and wounding Other,
including hims
and hers,
transparently discussing fist-vulnerable hands
and heads,
and stomping, kicking feet,
and bad-news phones
and unreliable cars
and imprisoning homes
and patriarchal supremacists
As if all lives
and interdependent relationships
mattered
for continuing depressive competitions
and for altering impressive cooperations.
Beyond LeftBrain Intelligence
In Beyond Religion
the Dalai Lama offers non-sectarian roots of compassion
to motivate global cooperative behaviors
and inner mentally nurturing health values.
He begins with the assumption
his readers are asking,
How and Who are we
to become more compassionate,
kinder,
more forgiving,
more health v pathology discerning?
Not just in our root passionate intent
but in our actual co-invested behavior.
We already respond to such questions
by educating our health/wealth nondualistic hearts.
We already work to restrain negative behaviors
with anger and fear mindful
non-mongering
anti-competitive nonself-marketing management.
We already combat and absorb,
acclimate and cooperatively sublimate
destructive emotional impoverishing tendencies.
We already aspire to cultivate ego-health values,
passion,
patience,
contentment,
self-forgiveness for past and future woundedness,
peaceful sufficiency of time and well-being,
left and right bicameral discipline toward mutually transparent confluence,
and co-operative eco-political generosity, paid forward
from one DNA-inspired wealth generation
to those healthy co-arising next.
Such practice,
everyday practice,
awareness practices require no special equipment,
no sectarian religious beliefs,
no lack of pro-active commitment to cooperatively vulnerable compassion.
Our global and local vocations,
across vast seas
and on our own thresholds,
to live ethically unitarian, egalitarian
integrally
harmoniously Earth patriotic
resiliently
resonantly
regeneratively with and for all sentient and sensed Others,
with a wealthier GoldenRule sense of health becoming,
is already co-passionately practiced
practiced
practiced independently of any sectarian nature v spirit dualistic intelligence.
Deep natural health and wide spiritual pan-sectarian wealth
educating our cooperatively owned and managed DNA
infused and still faithfully pumping Elder RightBrain
holistic
autonomic hearts
and newer LeftBrain conscientious minds
already co-invest passionate bilaterally committed time,
past with future strings
unweaving and reweaving nature/spirit species,
in multiculturally sustained sensory effort.
Cooperative
integral
global health spirited through locally embodied
efforts to learn kind-hearted health
with wealth-minded integrity
So we can all left/right
yang/yin intelligently benefit
from already enchanting ecopolitical
ego/eco-logical
co-passionate Light,
co-operative Ways,
co-interdependent Truths.
