If you live from your soul/ heart a story will happen. Don't worry about making a story. - christina applegate sytycd
Casey did his best dance where he had to show up and be vulnerable. Christina asked him how do you feel right no, emotionally, spiritually after doing that dance? He says I can't describe it. She said, "you did your job, kiddo. " tears in my eyes. Be moved. Move. Act beyond words this too is your job.

The role of Rigidity and Choice
Acceptance and Committment Therapy explores the meanings people ascribe to a situation. ( What meaning do my ASD kids ascribe? Whatever it is, it rocks them to their core if they can't get their way.)
One thought: getting to choose and having it come to pass build self-efficacy.
Remember how preschoolers have to bounce off of you to know who they are. It's more like they bounce an idea/ self concept off us and if it doesn't come back as Yes, it's as if they don't exist. ( and this is disturbing) one child would say everything in the universe is off (gravity for ex) if he can't make sense of the situation and his role in it. Missing a well developed pre frontal cortex telling him. Later, first I need to deal w/ this error message is catastrophic.
Is it, not trusting he can deal with whatever comes up?
It's more... Not getting to print... Not recreating his rigidity is majorly disruptive. (Aren't we all like this. We live in routine b/c it's one less thing to think about, to perceive as new stimulus. And what if you were hyper sensitive to stimuli. You would use rigidity to exhale. At least this will be so. / it's as if it is not So everything you thought you could trust in the universe is also no longer true. Hmmmmm.....
Bk persons in context p.148
Effectiveness rests on a persons ability to adapt. (My children's bk. either this or that, both are okay) this is a cornerstone.

Be- coming
Speaking your truth is prayer, whatever you're feeling. Speaking your truth puts you in the center of God.
Keep to the moving truth within you
A pattern will emerge
Alisha
It's not just showing up in every room as me (some fixed externally perceptible version of me.)
It's showing up in touch with the changing tides of your becoming unsure of what will be revealed or hidden and ultimately how that will be received. The goal is to experience and express the current state of your soul even in the face of a bossy people harping & telling you to do it differently. - Brene Brown
Jesus always knew who he was.
And that might be the very characteristic that set him apart. Never people pleasing, he knew he was amazing, the son of God ( as we all are), and he showed up as himself fearlessly , courageously, and consistently.
He experienced his divinity and expressed his heart in every moment.

Pema Chodran on Love and Aggression
Pema
Profound well-being not determined by circumstance
God is an open space that holds the question. God is potential.
God is an open space of mind that allows for alternative possibilities.
People can be swept towards aggression they can be equally swept to lovingkindness because they have both potentials inside of them. Because they have the capacity for both.
You want everyone to de-escalate their aggression that will equal happiness and peace in the world.
Maybe I get to be a peace officer after all.
When the ground falls out example September 11 kindness is the only thing that makes sense. And then habit reemerges and we return to aggression and violence.
The kindness comes from not being able to escape from groundlessness.
When you're all groundless together kindness is the only thing that makes sense.
(like when I travel I am humble)
Hmmmm.....

David Whyte on work
Psychology
Philosophy
Poetry
Presence
Work gives us a sense of power over circumstance
The key human need is to know you show up in the world and you have influence
Like Lukey on the drums
We're loving presence brings out someone else's full expression
This expression includes work
This expression includes power over circumstance
To know them and their essences as it goes over waterfall or in the slow pool
The essence of water doesn't change but it's circumstance changes what aspect of its personality is highlighted
Work asks the question what am I going to do
How I'm I going to show up
Work can be a place to find yourself but you can also lose yourself
How will I help my autistic friends navigate these waters

Ram Dass on Behavior Change
The optimal strategy in behavior change, with yourself and every other human being, is compassion. That means, as far as I understand it, the ability to see how it all is. As long as you have certain desires about how you think it ought to be, you can’t hear how it is. As long as I want something, I can’t really understand it, because much of what I can see are just my own projective systems. You must come to see every human being including yourself as an incarnation in a body or a personality, going through a certain life experience which is functional. You allow it to be just the way it is at the moment, seeing even your own confusion and conflict and suffering as functional, rather than as dysfunctional.
The greatest thing you can do for any other being is provide the unconditional love which comes from making contact with that place in them which is beyond conditions, which is just pure consciousness, pure essence. That is, once we acknowledge each other as existing, just being here, just being, then each of us is free to change optimally. If I can just love you because here we are, then you are free to grow as you need to grow, because none of it’s going to change my feeling of love.
We’re used to having these special role relationships, thinking certain roles apply to one, yet not to another, because we’re very attached to externals – do you touch somebody, do you sleep with them, do you control them, do you collaborate with them, do you support them, do you pay them, do they pay you? That’s all stuff of the vehicle of the interaction between two beings; it isn’t the essence of the matter. As you work on yourself through your daily life, more and more you see your own reactions to things around you as sort of mechanical rip-offs. You get much calmer in the space behind it all, and you’re able to hear more how it all is, including your own personality as a part of nature. The deeper you are in that space, the more there is available for everybody you meet who is capable of coming into that space. You are the environment that allows them to do that – and from within this space all change is possible. The minute you identify yourself or anyone else with models, roles, or any characteristic, any individual difference, change is really fierce. Once you live in a universe where you experience even your living and dying as relative rather than in absolute terms, it’s all free to change. There’s nowhere you have to go to work on yourself other than where you are at this moment, and everything that’s happening to you is part of your work on yourself.
