[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 672233, member: 19522"] I am thinking of SWOTS recent post from her thread "Embrace the Mat" Manure as a medium of organic growth. So she is taking the literal:poop: she grew up with as and viewing it as her growing medium. I think it is awesome. We have no control over our past, we can only control our attitudes about it. So we might as well embrace it. And Copa, sending her sister a birthday email, in spite of a possible snarky reply. That is huge. In every problem there is a solution. I would bet your local agricultural college would have some answers for that Cedar. I started to compost here, my daughter was learning about environmental issues. The amount of waste we produce. Reduce, reuse, recycle. I think this is very appropriate for our discussion. How do we take our waste, and turn it into something useful, to build our soil? Coffee grinds, tea bags, vegetable trimmings. All breaking down into lovely, healthy compost. The plants and worms just flourish from things that we normally discard in the rubbish. Isn't that something? The circle of life. Like wise, how do we take our difficult experiences and turn them around to something that enriches us? Embrace the mat, nice work SWOT. Just do it. I think my Dad originated that saying. Really. We would go for long jogs, and he would tell me all about the importance of breathing in jogging. Not to over exert yourself, one should be able to converse when jogging. So we did. I would tell him about my hopes and dreams and he would say "Just do it." Huh. That was before Nike claimed it. This is important Cedar, thank you for this. It has to do with ourselves too, you know, how we take care of ourselves. Treat other people the way you would be treated. This has as much to do with us, as it has to do with how we treat others. How do we treat ourselves? How do we allow ourselves to be treated? This has a lot to do with enabling, and how we have been treated by our d cs. The things we allow. If we do not respect ourselves enough to stop mistreatment, how can anyone else give us due respect? Ohhh posture. It pains me to see the youngsters sit all scrunchy. When I teach paddling, posture is so important. Parents do not demand good posture like they did in the old days. Posture has everything to do with everything. How our spine aligns, our organs are placed, that is inward, body mechanics. Do you know there are sports institutes that examine athletes posture and can break down piece by piece from foot placement, knee, hip angle, and see propensity for injury? Posture is also important because it projects how we look and feel about ourselves. It is key. I believe this to be true. I think it applies in every way Cedar. I believe everything we think and do sends a resonance, deep throughout the universe. Like a pebble thrown into a still pond. I think that is why our children simultaneously have reappeared. How strange is that? What will your avatar be Cedar? I will miss Wizard of Oz, but am excited to see what you choose. Your welcome Cedar. I hope we all continue to work very hard at loving and replenishing ourselves. It will open up new worlds, and help us examine our endless possibilities, our [I]presence.[/I] leafy [/QUOTE]
