I've listened to most of your podcasts over the years but have stayed on the fringes. Even though most of what you talk about resonates with me, I am older (68 in a few weeks) than much of your audience. The Jan. 6 repost of the musician that plays for the dying really struck home as it was just 5 days after I sat in the room with my mom as she passed on Jan.1. Your project in Crestone sounds great and seems poignant since my mom grew up in Olney Springs, CO a few hours away. I've travelled that area of Colorado a lot on motorcycles in my earlier days but live in Arkansas now. Good luck and I look forward to learning more about the Crestone project.
Thanks for dropping in. Sounds like your mother lived a long life. I hope that fact brings you a little relief. I hope this year goes well for you. Hell of a start, any way you look at it.
Friday the 13th is a good luck day. It's my birthday. Also two of my boys are born on the 13th, just different months. So be at ease. Its a lucky day for us.
Can't wait to see what you are planning on developing and hoping that I can help in whatever small way I can. It has been a bit of a rough start to 23 for me and looking forward to turning it around and making this an amazing year of new experiences and friends.
That is a grand start to your lifeboat project! You said on the podcast that it’s an eclectic little house you bought. I’m sure there are a few little gems of DIY projects you can dig into. Take your time, plan thoroughly and baby steps in levels difficulty are all good ideas n
I’m guessing your time spent on the road in the summers will be shorter in order to take advantage of the prime building weather summer provides. That being said, I hope you may have time to stop in and visit as you pass through on any future trip to Alaska.
So stoked for you two and the beginnings of the lifeboat!
Thanks for the plug of our conversation—that continues to feed my thinking, in particular about 'coming out' and also about how sexual energy relates to creative energy. I've been digging some of what Zoë Kors (Radical Intimacy) and Liz Goldwyn (Sex, Health, and Consciousness) have to say on that connection—and, I'm looking for more input. My feeling is that the opening of the boundary that most of us (myself included) still have around sharing anything close to sexual energy with "others" outside a monogamous relationship is a closure that inhibits creative energy. Not that we necessarily have to have sex with +1 to be more creative, but that loosening that boundary, even incrementally, will be fruitful.
Talk to someone who has been with the same partner for 45 years...oh Here I am! I love when someone says they are monogamous but they’ve had 10 partners in 5 years. Not saying I haven’t taken a few side trips. Long term committed relationships to one other can feel suffocating at times and excludes half the population. Monogamy is a tough row to hoe. I have no desire to leave my wife. We have a great relationship. She’s beautiful, kind, a loving mother, grandmother and a real good head...dam autocorrect! Bada bing Bada boom
Congratulations on these exciting developments, Chris and Anya! I've enjoyed hearing about your movements toward creating a life-boat community over the years, and I'm sincerely happy to hear that things are moving forward for you.
