BAD! Kitty Art Studio Quote of my day
***
"I am part of the sun as my eye is part of me. That I am part of the earth my feet know perfectly, and my blood is part of the sea. My soul knows that I am part of the human race, my soul is an organic part of the great human race, as my spirit is part of my nation. In my own very self, I am part of my family."
D.H. Lawrence

"emerges ahead of his accomplishments"
That's my jumping off point this morning.
It's Monday, MLK day here in the states, and well...I think for the most part, for a lot of the people in America, it's either a bonus day off...Or it's a hassle because of it being a weekday off, with kids out of school...But your regular life has to march on.
The robots that I use in my work, and my OCD with things all mechanical "things"...Man's attempt to become a God on Earth...Adams Steele reinforced rib...With great gas mileage. I like robots for that reason... Emerges ahead of his accomplishments...
Because our greatest accomplishments...
Are made by becoming more organic
animal
human
rather
than a sum of organic
parts functioning but not living.
Living...bink, bink, bink...
Living,
it's so fucking stressful and complicated
for me of late.
I have to work hard to control my impulse to
slip
fall
slide
through the fog
of my Factory Life.
I am a Machine a Machine of Love.
I operate with the precision of something
programmed for LIVING.
A healthy mind in a sound body is not
easy to create from the scraps left over from the
assemblage of stuff my organic existence...My bridgework back to
the past
present
future.
***
Which brings be back to my point.
MLK day.
A Human Being Worth...Wealthy...
a fine example of an authentic LIVING being.
An American born,
dark skinned Human
Inspired by his FAITH in all of humanity...
"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal."
Martin Luther King Jr
"Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse. The true with the false and the false with the true."
Martin Luther King Jr
think about that for a moment...
***
Being born and raised in Southern Florida...
And now living in the NW, I see that slavery/race isn't
a concept that has left any of us, untouched... Regardless of color.
We are all economic slaves
fodder
machines
separate
small.
Dr. King...He was speaking for equality for all humans, in America...On EARTH...
Wealth
Status
Position
Power
Apathy
that's what defines who we are in the ladder of life.
From the top down its all about how much you have not how rich you are as a resource...
as a machine capable of being a human animal...
An organic combination of our ecological evolution...
and then...More.
As I look back over my experience being a darker skinned grrrl,
too dark to just be white, too white to be anything else.
I understand from a perspective as Female...As a white female...As a white, female, human... BEING.
Whiteness is not a color I see.
I love the color white.
I don't like it as a descriptive term... feels like a suit cut wrong...And it's hard to understand the importance of being more....When everyday life can make you feel so
small
alone
separate.
***
I also have a dream.
That America really can be a beacon of
indvidualism,
commerce with conscious,
beings with varying shades of skin
that function together as a huge Machine of Love...
Adventures,
Chain Breakers of the Highest Order authentic
and truly FREE.
I reflect on how MLK would respond to being wire tapped...What he would make of our current corrupt political system,
where we grow up and ask to be put into the system...
And are controlled by the real wealthy,
the ones that control what we
see,
feel,
hear...Taste...
to take care of us, and protect ourselves from the cancer within...
Wait he was in these situation!
Remember that White Guy named Nixon?
Yeah...History...It's funky.
My son's are coming home telling me all about the American History,
that they learn in school.
It's not the same history I learned in school...But it seems to me...Like the great bibles of the world...It depends on who is telling the tale and who is interpreting it.
***
My point being that we learn from our mistakes...Good judgment, comes from bad judgment.
In America today, it's not what's wrong but what's right, that we can focus on if we so choose...We are still free in our minds, spirits and souls...That can't be taken from any sentient being...
As Marget Mead said, "Never doubt that a small group of committed citizens can change the world. In fact, it's the only thing that ever has."
***
I am all for telling the tale... I just hope the author writes a good ending for this factory life filled with Machines of love. A good old fashioned, everybody's happy at the end of 102 minutes... American Ending.

Living in the moment today,
and thinking not from outside the box but
from inside the Human, Heather
