“Whipsaw – (verb) – to beset or victimize in two opposite ways at once, by two-phase operation or by collusive action of two opponents.”
January begins at the end of December. Holding on – OR – letting go. Which makes Human stronger? Expansion or Contraction. Pain or Gain. Which makes Human wiser? Fear – doubt – insecurity – love – joy. Human experiences ALL during the Trip of a Lifetime. For today – catch your breath. Inhale – Exhale – Repeat. Word of the Year (denoting a country’s buzzword) from around the world. China chose WEN – (stability). The US chose THEY (non-binary-person). Japan chose REI (order/command). Germany chose RESPKTRENTE (respect pension). Australia chose VOICE (indigenous voices contributing to law/policy). Malaysia choice PIAN (corruption). South Korea chose GONGMYEONGJIJO (2-headed bird in which each head believes it can survive without the other). France chose FEMINICIDE (killing of a female because of gender). Are we really all that different? Think back to goals at the beginning of the year. Consider that 2020 will bring a lesson in the “Art of Bowing” and the theme will be learning how to choose Change over Habit. What “habit” needs to be changed? WHY CHANGE? We all laugh – cry – eat in the same language. One face – One race – HUMAN! All is well! ❤
