First message: Congress is consistently operating on half its brain power.
As a citizen you can do something about that.
The journey to return has begun -- a process not an event.
More to come!

It was definitely not great theater!

I will say more on this when words come to me. For now -- suffice it to say -- listen to Sue and I present my 'Major Announcement' and other wanderings through the format of our new series -- Radical Truth-telling At Black Bear Mountain Village.
Find out if you can hear intimations that we -- Sue and I -- are off on "another" adventure. We sure have had some -- getting from there -- March 16, 2020 to here -- January 6, 2023 -- second anniversary of the Januaty 6 Insurrection.

It's "All" so very BIG!
I barely know how to think of it -- wrap my mind around "IT ALl."
Imagine this -- you have a prophecy when you are barely into your thirties -- a single visitation, almost only one time in your life!
Now I call it my Oversoul. An abstract, ethereal being -- a spiritual being. And you are totally NOT even a spiritual kinda person. In fact -- spirituality is a form of psychosis you have been taught on your way to becoming a social worker which actually you did not ever become (Ohio become. (Ohio State, circa 1960.)
And that one foretelling has -- miracle of miracles -- directed your life and brought you to a BEAUTIFUL but oftentimes very hard -- NOW!
How would you be?

I have pledged myself to making a "Major Announcement" on January 6, 2023. I "felt" ready and the announcement imperative.
January 6 will forever more be indelibly inscribed from here forth in the hearts and minds of the American collective consciousness.
For me, personally, January 6, 2021 also held a fortuitous significance. My forthcing 'major anouncement' somehow affirms that notion in me -- boldly. Alongside of that assertion inside of me is a parallel realization -- I want now to pull back from the anticipated passage ahead for me.
A whole cache of fears and other assorted reservations call out for my examination. With only nine days remaining until my "big announcement" I feel a need to reflect deeply on my coming adventure, if you can call it that.
More to come.

Excerpted from Camelot Disrupted, a work in progress
Around the base of a mountain, two rivers rushed toward one another seeking passage to the sea. Nestled into the mountain was a secluded, magical spot called Black Bear Mountain Village. An aging warrior woman stood on the mountain’s side. She was timeless as an oak, ageless from a distance, graceful in standing repose. Someone who understood such things would have known her to be listening to an ancient wisdom. To others she might just seem to be thinking, eyes closed, shoulder length hair gently lifted by the breeze, hands resting comfortably in front of her. A lark sang in the distance as rays of sunshine filtered through leaves to dapple her face.
She wore a deep turquoise garment, and although this wrap might have looked out of place somewhere else, here beneath an ancient tree it looked almost inevitable, foretold. A playful skittling through the underbrush was the closest sign of life but by no means the only one. The clearing was alive with subtle sounds, the creatures’ business of the early morning, a vibrant felt sense of awe that hummed up from the earth. They were an earthly song behind the images that danced before the woman’s eyes bringing her now to focus on a particular arrangement, a hazy series of forms and figures charged with meaning for her.
“It’s here!” she exclaimed, almost child-like in her delight. “My time has come!”
Oversoul had guided her to this, shone a light on her footsteps in those times when she’d been lost. And It lifted her with that silent but certain voice she had heard that one time of her Prophecy. The instructions of that one time had guided her destiny the many days of her life since, sometimes consciously, other times not. Now, as she relaxed into the imagery, pieces of memory assembled themselves into a pattern in the woman’s mind, a pattern as wondrous and shifting as the jeweled pieces of the kaleidoscope she’d cherished as a child, a gift from her father. Her father – his loss pained her still… Her hero -- honored too late by her, yet out of her grief had come healing and an inheritance she could now pass on to others.
The woman let out a breath, almost a sigh. She widened her stance in defense of something not yet quite seen, as if the pictures coalescing in front of her carried messages of such weight she would need to readjust herself in order to take them in fully. But it was not resistance. She had almost always been an eager learner, often times out of sheer desperation. Next she would need to contemplate what to tell the others of what Oversoul had guided her to see this time.
Then she would wait for further instructions as to what exactly would be required of her in order to, at last, reveal to multitudes the wisdom and the guidance of her prophecy and how to best implement these in troubled times.

Excerpted draft from a work in progress, Camelot Disrupted
Meda Rose – in our tale, Camelot Disrupted, as it begins, is contemplating plans for her return to Washington, D.C. to carry out the instructions of her Prophecy.
She contrasts her community life at Black BeaMountain Village with fast track life in D.C. , reflecting that, unlike the nation’s capital, it is filled with the gifts of radical truth-telling combined with unconditional love, respect, peace and unity— all of which make even hard times gratifying – after they are overcome – that is.
And at BBMV, hard times do pass, often with some effort, collective effort – community effort
Radical truth-telling is the key!
In the language of slang, the term "gaslighting" and it's attributes might be used to describe the anthesis of radical truth-telling. In the language of Transactional Analysis (TA), the psychological model in which Meda had trained as an organizational consultant, specializing in women's issues and later male-female interpersonal dynamics and had earned most of the national and international
Meda, in establishing the culture of BBMV placed a ban on discounting - whatever its form, replacing that very human yet highly dysfunctional process with one of the village’s day-to-day disciplines being the assisting of one another in striving to be wholly conscious, a challenging endeavor to say the least.
The die-hard commitment to this process is what makes all else at BBMV so profound.
Meda takes great pleasure in having brought the principle and the practice of no denying, no lying, no minimizing or ignoring of relevant data to BBMV - straight out of TA -- to be foundational for BBMV culture.
