Description

The Eloquent Civilization is our own. Sure, it has some symptoms that we need to address. An alternative title would be Spirituality in a Scientific Age.


In this monologue recording (usually the format is interviews), I discuss things like the nature of consciousness, seeing fractal patters in my life, and the more they align, the more my life aligns.


Flow: coming into alignment with all that we think about. Our thoughts move us into alignment like currents on a river.


It's like you may have lasso in your kayak. We throw our lasso towards what we think about, and our boat is inexorably drawn towards what we think about.


Personal note: I recorded this about 1 1/2 years ago, and I sound really quite happy. There is a reference two I make to a romantic partner I was with at the time, and I can hear in my voice how enthusiastic I was.

For me, I have always observed that a healthy romantic relationship brings out the best in me. This is an emotional truth for me, though it seems, as a culture, we have taken Brene Brown's mantra of "I am enough" a bit too literally.


I would say, on my own, I am barely enough, or I am just enough.


While, with another, I am thriving.


Or perhaps Brene's words are completely correct. On my own, I am enough. And yet, I won't settle for being "enough." I want to be excellent, thriving. So there.

Remembering how good I sounded 1 1/2 years ago, I'm "focusing on the feeling" Law of Attraction style, and calling that back into my life.
