uni-tasking via the slow internet movement (thoughts on tiny buddha article)

i think i really like this “movement” i read about in today’s tiny buddha article… especially the part about stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system.
i’ve been slowing down for the past few years {especially after my foot/leg injury 2004/2005}
~ plus balancing work/career with art/play ~ and it’s helped improve my life immensely.
amazingly, the overall effect makes me feel like i am accomplishing more {mind~body~soul}
by living more balanced and not pushing so hard ~sb
please read article ~>

in 2004 i was clinging to a love and an illusion that was not true and not real.  in 2006 i began the process of letting go of that unattainable and unrealistic love of someone else.  in 2007 i started releasing my fear and i started loving my self.   in 2008 i was like a small bird when i let go and i flew away to a better self and a higher plane and  i truly abandoned the quixotic dream that kept me trapped and grounded and and faint-hearted.  i constantly release love and love continually embraces me. {photo by sarah nean bruce ~ feb 2004}

“You only lose what you cling to.” ~Buddha
when we clung to love it was kept just beyond our reach
then we released ourselves from loving others desperately
and we released our attachment to being loved by them

when we began to truly love ourselves
we discovered we could love others unconditionally and
from a place of overflow

and because we love ourselves,
we allow ourselves to love others freely
we do not love others from a place of scarcity {please READ MORE}

"We can only in proportion to our capacity for independence" ~ Fred Rogers (Flickr Photo by Good Karma)

P.O.W.~true love is independent

yes ~ POW! what a great quote from Mister Rogers. i came across this today while researching an article. this plain advice and honest opinion resonated with me. when i read it, i thought how simple this truth really is. and i realized for some people the concept might not be so easy, it might be outright conflicting or incredibly foreign. because for some people who live & love in fear to have independence & love together might represent opposing and counteractive forces
and an impossibility for now or for ever. yet for me today, this concept of true love seems so easy, so essential, so intuitive, and so eternal ~ sb … {READ MORE} …

30 November: course correction

“… The path of my life now is one that I had dreamt about, but hadn’t the courage to embark upon before. Interesting & good how the “be careful what you (dream) wish for” comes about. I hoped for a change in my tumultuous & topsy-turvy personal life in 2004 – even tho my showbiz career was booming – and the universe obliged me. The disabling and painful foot/leg injury allowed me to slow down, evaluate, contemplate, reinvigorate and redirect myself personally and professionally. Now I am calmer – braver – happier to do what I want personally, professionally, spiritually” … SEE/READ MORE…

W.O.W.~5 stages of {letting go and} forgiving

I saw a video on youtube titled “Forgiveness and the Freedom of Letting Go” tonight and it reminded me of my journey to forgiveness. i began to sow those seeds in 2004 and it took me five years to really get it, to literally know it and to honestly feel it. now pretty much any time something adverse happens to me, i am able to forgive faster, move through the pain or disappointment exponentially quicker, and return to living in the calm and peaceful state of a quantum nowness i have created for myself.~sb

$50 Million Dollar (3-D) Weekend for Jackass
