Here\u2019s why I want Michael Goldsby to talk to you and me. At the brewery. Ok, I\u2019m bullshitting, I likely won\u2019t show up. I\u2019ve been hanging out in a brewery drinking beer for 18 years. It\u2019s been so sweet and I love the way the brewery is and I may be entering a hermitage so I likely won\u2019t be there XOXO. Ok, enough about me. What about us?<\/p>\n
More about me. I\u2019m tired of arguing over uncontrollables. Will my vote or ranting change the election? Wrong question. I fell into a trap of identity and society tricked me into that, with my unconscious consent. Is this getting too esoteric? How many places in your life do you accept only two options? Do you go to a restaurant that offers 2 menu items and say, \u2018if you don\u2019t order the burger and not the hot dog I hate you\u2019. Fuck no. Or maybe yes, I don\u2019t actually know you. Probably. I can tell you that it sounds like a shitty restaurant and I\u2019m not going. Yet I did.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t want to have that conversation any more. I want to give my energy to what I dream of, not what I hate or can barely tolerate. I want a restaurant operated by caring people who lead with love and a spiritual orientation toward reciprocity. Or a political system. Or Neighborhood, workplace, community. Yeah, now I\u2019m feeling it. I feel the possibility when I share what I love, what I\u2019m participating in creating. I feel full of joy and creativity when people share with me what they love and what they see as a beautiful future. I feel warm radiating energy from all of me when I see that what I want and what they want are often totally compatible, mutually reinforcing and totally possible.\u00a0 We\u2019ve been duped into stupid, disconnecting conversations. As a regular acquaintance and local legend whom I\u2019ve come to know through time at the public sauna says \u201cDon\u2019t be STUPID!\u201d -Lord Byron Skyscraper<\/p>\n
Are you ready to love your neighbor and have the conversation you really care about, not just pick a fight and walk away sad, angry, disappointed?\u00a0<\/p>\n
It seems to me that is what Mr. Goldsby is offering and I want to have that conversation. Er, host it at my business while I am at home cooking dinner and doing dishes then burning brush piles with a beer in one hand and a Stihl Miniboss in the other.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
