My absence from pathetic
08/31/2004 05:02 a.m.
I feel sad that I have so seldom visited and lingered here at my pathetic.org home. I feel guilty too, of course, since that's my reflex feeling all too often. I have been concentrating on my work of training people at my college about conflict and conflict resolution. I am immersing myself more and more in this field since this is where I am meant to be. I am sure of that. But a lot of it is new to me, therefore I am having to spend a lot of time in preparation, practice, etc.
I am still a poet and I still love my friends here and miss you. It is just that I don't seem to have the energy for poetry or for visiting here, reading, commenting, etc. My creative energy is going into the conflict resolution stuff. There is such a need for it and people are just lapping it up and loving it. In a world marked by violence, greed, and aggression, I feel a special urgency about this work, being as old as I am and all.
Blessings to all of you, even to those who don't happen to read this.
Namaste! - [Sanskrit for: "I celebrate the place in you where we are one."]
