Keeping Love Alive

Mike Starr — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 16:58:15 +0000

I must confess that with my writing and the pondering that goes with this process I do very much improve my understanding and clarity with the subject matter, this article more than any I have written was more confronting and damning for me than any other, as I have had to face one of my greatest shortcomings with my communication with others, with how I have blamed and diminished others with providng feedback when my boundaries have been crossed in the past.

As some who know me well understand … that it is my desire and dream to promote Harmony, Joy, Fun, Inner Peace and a Sense of Contribution among those I touch…among those who touch me as well. So I find it such a great honor to have my Facebook Friends and Colorado readers support my published articles with The Mancos Times. These articles are expanded upon from their original genesis on Facebook with the “Listening from the Heart” posts. A number of you have contacted the editor and some have electronically subscribed to “The Mancos Times” as well…thank you every one.

Peace be with you and about you.

Strong Fences make good Neighbors…and good Lovers as well

Mike Starr — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 16:48:06 +0000

In my Listening of others … myself as well … I hear the frustrations and upset we have with others … especially with others BEING THEMSELVES! How we resist accepting them for who they are. We so often contain angst, anger, despair and frustration within ourselves with our efforts…our desires …our wants…TO…SEE THEM CHANGE!!

Fear not fellow humans, there is hope and peace for us with this. Perhaps we need only do 4 things and miracles will unfold before us.

1. Get clarity with who they are…not “why” but “what” they are…without judgment but clear objectivity … with empathy
2. Take your time and get clarity with what we want for ourselves …what does our heart tell us?
3. Set boundaries carefully…establish fences so to speak, that are clearly communicated in a proactive manner … in a kind and forthright manner
4. Establish clear consequences for anyone who makes an effort to broach the fence…the boundary

Perhaps the real root of the issue is not another’s behavior with being themselves but our lack of clarity with them, with ourselves and our unwillingness to be resolute with calmly thought out consequences?

How many people will try to climb a fence that is clearly marked “Electrified…Danger…Do not Touch or you WILL be shocked” …my experience is that when the boundaries are clearly communicated and consequences made non negotiable, they ARE respected… not many folks trying to cross the DMZ in Korea are there?

And for those who do attempt to cross the line …do what you said you will do… which may mean walk away. Do remember we do not need their permission to establish OUR boundaries and consequences. We need only firmly communicate them in advance.

Peace be with you and about you.

Listening From the Heart: Put Yourself First – Morning Dance

Mike Starr — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 06:00:22 +0000

Special thanks to all my facebook friends and especially my Colorado friends for your support of the articles I have submitted to The Mancos Times.

For those of you who know me, you are aware that most of my work with the public is Pro Bono. My mission is to nurture a sense of compassion and joy with those who I touch…with tips on how we see our lives and deal with…both our dreams…and demons. I am convinced that there is an amazing amount of serenity, interpersonal harmony, and happiness available to all that is left untapped because of the questions we ask ourselves and the paradigms we have toward looking at circumstances around us.

With your support and contact of the editor of The Mancos Times she has been very willing and supportive in helping share this message of hope, connection, empathy and fun that is very much achievable for all.

Peace be with you and about you, dear friends.

Mike
