Sisyphus Meditations

look at earth

make me an enemy and an enemy i shall be

attack the earth with pics, shovels and crowbars

make me a friend

plant ideas like seeds and help them grow

together we are stronger

bring the stones together in a line biggest on the bottom smallest on the top

togetherness is the cure to the disease of enemies

listen more to the sound of space changing

learn a skill teach a skill do a skill

repeat

meditations

pick a stone and place in a line forward and up from where a hawthorn grows

change is ideas

ideas travel through social spheres as waves upon a sea of synaptic connections changing, burning out and being born

evolving in unpredictable patterns over time

a language spreading across a fertile brain of an infant world

so goes the spread of culture and the new ideas that revolve around the building of a new generation

inside an evolution a global mixing of ideas that redefine what being human means only to see being human redefined again and again

life is Sisyphus meditation

Sisyphus the origin of the idea that the common people should know what leadership is doing

(Sisyphus is the guy pushing the rock up the hill for all eternity)

move, soil, sand and small rocks slowly let the boulder fall

repeat

build a wall, build a waterfall

inter-relatedness creates a common sense way to move ahead

inter-connectedness evolves a common purpose for a team, country or generation

inter-dependence flowers a mutual need for skills to be applied to the common problem of the team

Trail running is best when you are off the grid
