Will--true or false?

Breakfast 

Next!!  What is coming down the internal disassembly line?  Will.  One of the Enneagram workshops (IRG) in San Rafael was looking at false and true will.  The nature of it, identifying aspects, how it threads through one's life, etc.  Your strengths are your weaknesses too.  How many times have we heard that one?  No time like the present to detach a piece of you that has been holding your "false" self together.  I may have to get a bigger, heavier duty wheelbarrow for this excavation. Gratitude for willingly getting to look at this piece instead of with some giant stick.

(Sorry, a little fuzzy because he was getting ready to jump)

The monkeys taking breakfast out of my vegetable/fruit peelings.  Cute, but maybe not so cute if they are aggressive?  Not forgetting that they are wild monkeys and respecting the nature of their teeth for biting and dexterity for movement.  The baby one was using my drying pants leg as a jungle gym-Tarzan style.  An absolute gift to observe their intelligence and creativity.  I had just reviewed a couple of Jane Goodall's videos while contemplating the animal kingdom.  She is the holy one of the animal world:  pure heart and clear intention for the protection of habitat and animal wellness on a global level.



Jane Goodall has taught the world more about chimpanzees than anyone else in the world. Her dream to study our closest relatives began in 1960 in Gombe Park, Tanzania, and she continues her work to save them today.

Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE and UN Messenger of Peace discusses the Leakey Foundation and the start Dr. Louis Leakey gave her career.
