Possibility

What if, instead of coming at a situation from above ‘in understanding’, or from below through shame, I came at a person, a circumstance, an experience, a moment… as what..? my imagination crumbles, retracts like an unstretched tendon.

Here I have to go back to ‘my training’ with Stephen. I guess the only approach is one that seeks the progression of life’s most important structures, human contentment, and personal awareness. This last is most difficult, but the first two aren’t possible apart from it. Apart from self awareness, the most that one can produce is a lesser version of a lesser perception.

Awareness is the environment in which the most creative and beneficial solutions have been found. It is the space in which law was made for humanity and not the other way around. It is the space in which red lights at 4am have little meaning, or function. It facilitates individuals using their most important faculties, to think for themselves, to seek to persuade, and be allowed to be persuaded or shown to be in the wrong, apart from shame.
