Sometimes, there are just no small moves here. Every action has consequences -- even non-action has consequences.

About Me
- Name: Ladarna Daorsa
- Location: United States
I USUALLY ONLY LEAVE A MONTH AT A TIME ON MY PAGE. SO IF YOU WANT TO READ FURTHER PHILOSO-BABBLE, CLICK ON MY ARCHIVES LISTED BY MONTH BELOW.
"I am the seasoned traveler
Of the Labyrinth.
The genius of alacrity,
Wizard of the impossible.
My brilliance is yet unmatched
In its originality.
My heart's filled with potent magic
That could cast a hundred spells.
I am put together
For mine own pleasure.
I am the Monkey."
Seems pretty apt.

If I wanted only to hold you
I could hold you prisoner."

"My story is not a pleasant one; it is neither sweet nor harmonious, as invented stories are; it has the taste of nonsense and chaos, of madness and dreams -- like the lives of all men who stop deceiving themselves." -- Demian, Hermann Hesse
"The Muses are vindictive deities: they avenge themselves without mercy on those who weary of their charms." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
THE RULES: As a general rule, and most of you already know this, I prefer annonymous comments on this blog. Here is where I like to talk more "idea to idea" than person to person. I've got another journal wherein I get all personally chatty, but here I like the idea of ideas being separate from the contructs/biases/"personalities" behind them. Because those things color us all, don't they? Anyway, it's not a hard and fast rule, so feel free to comment however you like. Caro can never help giving herself away and, of course, Aspyre is always welcome to comment with identity because when Ladarna and Aspyre talk, it has always been idea to idea anyway. :)

But are the consequences real or imaginary?
Does it make a difference?
I missed the request for advice one! I will just advise now:
I believe you have evidence of transformation that others cannot even imagine. You know that in the past you have witnessed and/or experienced spontaneous healing or, at the least, a supposedly impossible regeneration. This is a tremendous resource to draw upon sweetie.
Evoke that role model from your personal history and use it to strengthen yourself whenever healing is called for.

Too much thinking about fear? I still await the promised post. But, I will say, if you are analyzing moves then Fear is at the heart of whatever negativity you are experiencing.
And fear of what? fear of death? annihilation? oblivion? you may discover, beloved, that the cause of your analysis is the fear that you will be made inconsequential, that your contribution will be forgotten. But I'd be highly surprised if your *rational* mind didn't know this isn't going to happen.
You have lived too long and made too many moves to be so totally extinguished. But something inside fears being snuffed out. Isn't that what you, yourself, recommend striving in spite of? You must address this fear, because I would hate to see it inhibiting your willingness to take risks and act on your best interests and creative urges.
the cause of your analysis is the fear that you will be made inconsequential, that your contribution will be forgotten.
Not exactly applicable to the current moment, but touche nonetheless.
