Welcome to Musings + Machinations
This is the inaugural post for what is now an archive of musings+machinations. go here for new posts.
Musings - “act of pondering, meditation, thought”;
Machinations - "a plotting, an intrigue”
Apparently, it is good form to introduce people to your blog, set your purpose, etc.
Normally, I am pretty good at that. A term I have heard people use to describe me is “freakishly intentional.”
But this is a bit outside of my comfort zone. And then this came to me yesterday. This is how it opened:
What are you seeking?
Can you move past old mind constructs, no longer useful, as you find your way?
Are you beginning to comprehend the difference between knowledge and wisdom
Have you come to understand the freedom inherent in risking a new mind-scape?
Have you come to terms with the universal truth that this life is a grand adventure?
This rang so true to where I am at this moment.
I am ready to challenge it all. I invite others to join me. This is not about disruption (although that is likely), but transformation. Our world and way of life is not sustainable.
I want a new way.
