One of my favorite and most abiding paradoxes is simplicity vs. complexity. Years ago I discovered that simplicity is a myth not worth trying to realize, except in a radically paradoxical way. How so? What's confusing and complexly dis-integrated inside us creates much of our difficult and ultimately painful experiences. The process of undoing the amorphous complexities of our inner lives is complex, detailed, and rigorous. But what results is a radical simplicity, a clarity, allowing us to weave a beautiful web, much like that of a spider, of our lives...complex, yet simple in its buoyancy, strength, and flexibility. Of course, to have the time and energy to unwind our insides, and be with our deeper transitions, we need to make available our attention, which requires simplifying our outer world. So, simple outside, rich inside. Another beautiful paradox. <br /><br />I enjoyed this writing, thank you. My fave line..."Patience is our rebirth after pain has called us to our death, and a dynamism of reverie, solution, revelation and purpose is indeed impelled and conveyed when conceived."<br /><br />Though it's a bit open to poetic interpretation. <br /><br />Peace, J*Earth Stewardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10921143762214219685noreply@blogger.com
