Right Here. Right Now.

Is it possible to cry while running? Yes - if you swallow the ocean and breathe through the throat chakra block. The poignancy of being right here, right now on Planet Earth struck me like a cannonball this morning. I passed SO many homeless people as I ran along Santa Monica’s bluff. Then a cannon pointing to the Pacific. Revered weapon of mass destruction. The impact of its shot blasted my 3rd chakra as I passed it. What is time? I fell into a time warp, and felt its unfriendly fire. Just like at Circus Maximus in Rome, where I fell into the thunder of horses’ hooves and racing chariots. The cannonball woke me up. Such violence. Such beauty. Welcome to Planet Earth. I passed a youngish, particularly muddy, sandy-haired man sleeping on the ground. Someone had placed a full take out box of food in front of him. That’s what got me. Violence. Compassion. Beauty. Here we are, at this amazing time during the shift from former to latter. Lucky us.
