from gloss to gleam from glow 2/18/20

solutions of human behavior acts 

can never be because of the act itself,

that is the force feed for obvious attention,

the reprimand for appearances' sake.

the serious unmovable, inscrutable, 

is the mindset origin 

and impenetrable thoughts patterns

instilled in emotional stone.

origins from years earlier

as both the hard learning process

and the operative method of personal existence,

that is used to succeed in a self version account,

that is initially force-feed, as if it is news worthy.

it provides for all parties to become pseudo aware

but blatantly uninvolved in the healing process.

headlines pass like the use of napkins in restaurants. 

yes, there is apparent demonstrated usage

but ultimately, left on the table

when moving on from that conversational meal served.

news is meal served 

but about spices and palate intake,

not about nutrition or wellbeing going forward.

one can come to alter one's behavior, 

especially from an otherwise observable perspective

but the work of cleaning up the mindset,

personally and privately cleaning up that mindset

is not just developing the cover up

but actually emotionally working inwardly at a re-fabric.

not just a stalwart correction override

but a deep study, with self introspective, 

at a reclaim of being,

for finding a deeper truth to be directed from,

a re-weave of intention and operative means,

a self-witness inwardly in place

that now contributes to the self-directive

of conscious human behavior expressed.

that is what is necessary

but are we of a culture of that intrigue?

do we, as intimate support members,

provide for that process to be authenticated,

to be substantiated, going forward interaction-ally?

can we, from where we currently are,

become the active fabric of a culture evolving,

resourced and revitalized towards new growth and wellness?

we can only be the sounding boards 

for those with which an intimacy that already exists.

so much of first stage recovery has to start there.

it can look like innocent caring

but it requires a deeper use of awareness than just passage.

it is more than just tending, as appearances go.

there has to be a link-up of the feel.

people need the encouragement present

to go deeper within,

to go beyond the accusational moments of the past,

to look into the held and the withheld-ness,

to find the glitches and the binds of self in belief.

self-love of that depth needs support 

and a sense of human comfort.

we are all secretly in that predicament,

as the living predicament itself.

for whatever features as newsworthy-surface,

only provides an option of inward pursuit.

for whatever the behavior's offending action,

within lies, the privacy of mindset's self-damage.

we are all carriers,

some, with great discretion and heed, 

while others are out of frame from within.

their self-aware is easily suppressed

while in service to other inward demandings 

but adequately disguised needs.

recovery is always in the collective,

even though it is all self-work made evidential.

it is like a giant quilting process,

to make a quilt of consciousness,

in which everyone is a participant 

by their self-work,

contributing to the overall. 

this quilt will generate a surface, 

evident everywhere throughout the share.

maybe as the table spread

or the campsite sit down cover

but its utility is evident by participation

that brings out a culture kneaded-ness into existence

by all parties, as common practice demonstrates.

we, as a culture,

become less of the gloss 

and more-so,

the demonstration of the gleam

from this as the glow . . .
