The Urge for Adventure - September 2017

Hiker with Sun.jpg

Hey Guys,
Last month in the August issue, I passed on some great ideas for exploration, and reasons to get up off the couch, and that was beside the Solar Eclipse. Perhaps many who watched the eclipse were inspired to reflect and to become more of their awesome best.
September offers yet another variety of opportunities to increase your social activity or enhance your social skills to attract success. September is considered the Self-Improvement Month.  Engaging in activities this month might help you find something valuable about yourself. It is all the more reason for you to get off that couch and out that door, or at least to set a goal to hone any latent ability you might have tucked away.

The Carpenter

Another surprising piece of writing generated by the Long Beach Library Coffeehouse Writers Group. This time from drop-in writer Alex Welsh visiting from San Jose, California, on Aug. 24, 2017.

writing pad.jpg


We write from prompts, we give ourselves 15minutes to come up with and write the story from the prompts. Alex Welsh story is from the prompts – 
 

Carpenter” and “If only what was said could be taken back.”

There’s a problem being friends with a carpenter, and having them custom build your home. That’s how I ended up with a toilet, two feet from my bed.

Ted has been a friend since high school and has always been building things, and he’s good!

That’s why when I moved back into town and wanted to build a home, he was the man for the job. The problem began when I gave him total creative control for the design of the house.

 

Bed & Toliet.jpg

We were a few beers in, stoned to the bone, just having a good old time at the Circus Room, a nice little dive bar just outside of downtown. I told Ted, in between shots of whiskey and PBR tall boys, “Sometimes I wish I could just roll out of bed and take a piss.”  If only I could take that back. – Alex Welsh

 

 

 

 

 

The Long Beach Library Coffeehouse Group, is a motley group of individuals with diverse personalities and experiences, united by our desire to share ourselves, our varied backgrounds, and our understanding. We choose to be here because our vision is to inspire, delight, and to enrich lives through the power storytelling.

The Prosperos Tool Translation by Calvin Harris H.W., M.

It became clear to me while in conversation at a gathering around the backyard barbecue why someone would want to take the Translation Seminar.

Many keep their Spirituality compartmentalized in one small area of their life and Being, while all the rest of their daily life, in how they think, act, and Be is lived outside away from that area of Spirituality as if the two should never meet.

Since we have moved into the space age, technology and globalization are uprooting and reshaping daily life. We all sense it, some fear it, or are distress by not knowing how to be in the new realities. What is, or is not okay, people are looking for the rules to formulate the new realities, to re-envision their place, and to know their choices in role identity available in the coming decades.

This Space-age consciousness has/will make changes to our world, changes that are as great as when we went from a flat earth to around world, creating a manifesto to find the Truth, to find the abilities, the skills and free will to navigate though and during these turbulent times and thrive.

The clue is a reexamination of Spirituality and Life, not from a three-dimensional point of view, but viewed from the Alchemist, Quantum Mechanics, the Scientist, and yes even rules from the Artistic Intuit. All combines to become the formational tool enabling you to work from the inside out, to keep pace with change and its evolutionary drivers and for you to flourish. A Tool that is ancient, not new, but is underused and is not well understood.  This information is the reason to take the Translation class and its counterpart class Releasing the Hidden Splendour.
