A Cowboy's Dance ...

"Cowboys dance every dance as long as their bladders and feet hold out."
What I'm telling you, to be more precise, is my bladder and feet aren't holding out. This Gaia Dance is about to continue without many of my moves.
My life and career is about to turn frantic. Beyond your wildest dreams of busy. I'm at a crossroads, and taking a hard turn toward change.
So, save for an occassional uploaded poem and a thumbs-up "good on ya" to friends, I'll be pretty sparse in these parts for at least two years. Perhaps a bit longer.
I still love this space. I still will silently watch friends, and in my heart be part of the community. It is just I will be full of bull, and it will be a time to exercise some quietude in this space.
"After eatin an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.... The moral: When you're full of bull, keep yer mouth shut."

Oh, Christopher. I can't tell you how much I'll miss your presence here. Please do check in when you can (or whenever you need a hug of warm energy and support and appreciation) and I'm sure we'll all be sneding love.
With any luck those two years will go by quickly. :) Congratulations (they're appropriate, I hope?) on whatever it is that's called you, and a million good luck wishes…
This is sad news, indeed, Christopher. I first saw you posting on the Integral Strength pod. I will miss your presence while you're gone. Best of luck on your journey! And if you're able to blast back here sooner, I hope you will.
I will miss reading your wisdom. That is good news about the work. Your wonderful writing on the network in so appreciated and we look forward to you keeping a light touch along the way. Thanks for all of your wonderful blogs and pod talks.Kathy
another crank up into overdrive eh? well, take good care of yourself, dear friend, and your beautiful family. and i will see you around soon! hugs
I engaged in more colorful language in an email, so here I will just say that is VERRRRRY SAD news for us'ns here, and it will be good to see you when we do, and you can be darned sure you will still be in our hearts as a full member of this community. And two years, “maybe longer,” that can go by pretty quickly, these days, LOL !!! We will be eagerly awaiting your full return, which will be a cause for exuberant celebration.
Meanwhile, may your life and work go optimally, beautifully, delightfully, satisfyingly, but not ungrowthfully, and may you be blessed/blissed in every good way !!
You'll be greatly missed, but it's wonderful to know you are in the world, and will be here to say HI sometimes, and we'll definitely be sending hugs to you.
With gratitude for all the wonderfulnesses you have brought to my life,
OM Bastet
Watching and waiting…
the time is here and draws near…
Do what we will still the end seems quite clear?
Blessings, maybe someday we'll be amazed we can't recall how we came to this beautiful place called many names… for me ZNG, or Gaia or other.
All the same in the end-
Blessings, David
Christopher, Christopher, Christopher,
After just rereading a poem you wrote 2 years ago “I discovered Me” that ended with the realization that 'I discovered WE', I can't but think of and feel y/our journey here on zaadz, Gaia, in virtual/real life and beyond. And what comes is this amazing kaleidoscopes of comings and goings, giving and receiving, silence and dancing, inspiration and creativity, openings and insights, honesty and courage…
May whatever calls upon you be full of new adventures, opportunities and fun despite the expected frantic and bullish rhythm. May you enjoy even more the rarer times of immersing yourself in the multiverses of our sharings and may you creativity find new and even more exciting ways to express all that you do.
We are always t/here for you, just a click away!
Keep surprising yourself, us & the world!
Take Joy & Love always,
D a r i n a :)
