observations from the garden: June 2008
http://dagardenofeden.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Observations from the garden. Friday, June 20, 2008. Allow me to pause here on a blog to remember. I return to St. Louis soon. For the first time in four almost five years. The people and memories there have and will make me weep they are so full. Only, it would not be freedom now, with a few significant chapters added. Those chapters have grown vines and thorns and fruit and stand very tall. They both keep me out and hedge me in. Sequestered. Safe. Stubborn as hell. Divided. O heart of my heart,. When i...

observations from the garden: fluorescent lights, rainbows and conductors
http://dagardenofeden.blogspot.com/2008/12/fluorescent-lights-rainbows-and.html
Observations from the garden. Tuesday, December 9, 2008. Fluorescent lights, rainbows and conductors. The dying fire in front of me spits lasting signs of life underneath Coco Rosie's K-Hole. I am tired and restless. Not sure how to be content these days. Always feeling as though my aspirations are not quite high enough. So I spend my days. I spend my days. Play them like cards, sleepily. Here's a Tuesday. Passed and what have I done? How have I been? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). When it comes to ...

life in slow motion: October 2008
http://mihyderspot.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Life in slow motion. Bringing the past into the present, with the hope of what is to come. Sunday, October 26, 2008. Hello Mac, My Name is Michael. So last week I went on a date. With my roommates Mac. It was all part of the process of seeing. Whether I should make the switch. You know. PC to Mac. As you can see from the pictures, it wasn't even a contest. Look how engaged we were! Two days later, my own is on its way in the mail. Haven't been this excited in a looooong time. Monday, October 20, 2008.

life in slow motion: Random, Mundane Experience #2: Safeway Bagger
http://mihyderspot.blogspot.com/2009/06/random-mundane-experience-2-safeway.html
Life in slow motion. Bringing the past into the present, with the hope of what is to come. Wednesday, June 10, 2009. Random, Mundane Experience #2: Safeway Bagger. There has been a change in me as of late, however slight it may be, to really enjoy these exchanges. Not every one, as most of them are still quite lame, more than uneventful, and that's fine. But I have grown increasingly grateful for the moments when these simple exchanges and these random people have had the capacity to make my day. The ant...

life in slow motion: November 2008
http://mihyderspot.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Life in slow motion. Bringing the past into the present, with the hope of what is to come. Tuesday, November 25, 2008. Anne Lamont, Bird by Bird. How often my work so far has been to kindly interject, and ask for us to slowly step into just one piece of what was just ejected my way. How can I move us into our senses? What if we said the same eight words over and over? Monday, November 10, 2008. Some flakes were now falling around my feet. A few melted as they hit the ground. Others stayed intact&...And t...

Life in slow motion. Bringing the past into the present, with the hope of what is to come. Tuesday, January 13, 2009. Come - let us tell the stories that haunt us with their darkness - come - let us tell them in the light, that we may not bear the burden, that we may not bear the weight on our own - one should never have to tell their story alone. Come with me into the light, i have a story i've been wanting to tell. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Observations from the garden.

life in slow motion: Flash
http://mihyderspot.blogspot.com/2009/06/flash.html
Life in slow motion. Bringing the past into the present, with the hope of what is to come. Friday, June 26, 2009. Wanted to share my last piece of work from my last class at Mars Hill, called Selected Readings, a class where the professor is given freedom to teach in areas of their own special interest. The last day entailed each of us giving a 10 minute creative presentation on our experience of it. The writing ends with hope in the reminder to never forget how to feel, especially cry. Both the cynic an...

life in slow motion: April 2009
http://mihyderspot.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Life in slow motion. Bringing the past into the present, with the hope of what is to come. Friday, April 24, 2009. A look at prayer. It is not a surprise to me that the dynamics of my everyday life come into play in my attempts at prayer and meditation. When I begin to enter this space of prayer, there is an anticipation in me, a desire that is also very closely linked to a demand to have intimacy. Desire can easily be confused with control. Why aren't you meeting me in this time? A mindfulness podcast s...
