A Chrysalis Built by Two (and more ...)

Version 2.0

(C) 2011 Howard McQueen

As we learn to contain our experiences with this world

 we also learn to harness the abundant life force

 and direct this force through us,

 into the service of our evolution.

When we acknowledge that living with others

 brings certain frictions,

 threatens boundaries,

 pushes buttons,

 we release ourselves from the role of servants,

 in service to the surface discomforts

 and all the inner armor

 covering over our intimacy.

There is a sacredness to being in service

 when we understand what we are responsible for:

 - our own inner feelings;

 - the ability to focus and shape desired feelings;

 - to create a sense of safety, especially when we are challenged with undesirable feelings;

 - to encourage inner and outer exploration;

 - to develop a willingness to blend our individual cultures into collective structures.

This is how we sign-up and joining in on the journey

 of sharing and synchronizing connection

 of dynamically creating our shared evolution.

What we focus on, we appreciate.

Let us hold in our hearts and minds

 the appreciation of all the small, interpersonal affinities

 that organically build trust and grow relationship.

Let us work at planting the seeds and tilling the garden of extending family.

This practice might be called social permaculture,

 creating yourself as a permeable and fertile container,

 allowing the feelings of free-flowing nutritional affinities

 to be shared, recycled, re-used and re-purposed

 in the service of sustainability.

This is the overarching chrysalis of transformation,

 the vibratory signaling of a transpersonal awakening,

 activating our consciousness,

 awakening our evolutionary DNA.

Cultivate harmony.

Learn to relax and release your discord.

Connect to others and begin a shared dreaming

 and actively out-picture the evolution of our family of Man.

This is a yoga to awaken us from our bindings. 

After writing this, I did a google search on Social Permaculture and found this useful link.
