St. Bonkus, patron saint of failed relationships and blind dates…, a photo by Shitao (away) on Flickr.
I once had a client who said, “We [humans] consist of but pockets of time. Spend time on things that don’t matter-waste time–and you throw away yourself.”
As with life and pockets of time, humans also consist of a conglomeration of relationships, none so important as the one we hold with ourselves.
Despite all, we recognize and best come to know ourselves, who we are, our likes and dislikes, pet peeves and joys through interaction with others.
We can never truly come to understand some aspects of ourselves except by way of interaction with those outside ourselves. Read the rest of this entry…

Twitter Chat: “Of Death, Mortality and The Steam of Compassion…â€
Posted by Anjuelle Floyd | Filed under Articles and Essays, Twitter Chat
Should Huma Abedin forgive her husband, US Representative Anthony Weiner?
For further discussion join me for a Twitter Chat, this Thursday, June 16th, 2011 @ 5pm PDT/6pm MT/7pm CDT/8pm EDT.
http://ping.fm/om4yW
______________________________________________________________________________
Last Friday, I heard a young woman say, “She [Huma] should abort the child she is carrying by Weiner,” both of whom I might add “…have not reached their first wedding anniversary…,” according to Amanda Read in her article Weinergate, Women, and a Secularized Society (6/15/2011) at the Washington Times
Should Huma do this I could not condemn her.
I cannot say what a person should are should not do regarding the betrayal a loved one or friend exacts upon him or her.
And yet our ability to move beyond experiences of hurt and emotional injury inflicted by friends, family and even acquaintances whom we hardly know establishes the foundation upon which we will build our healing.
And yet there is the anger.
Anger indicates a transgression of our boundaries, both physical and particularly emotional.
Beneath anger always lies hurt.
The steam of compassion can only rise from the flames of anger.
And what of forgiveness?
______________________________________________________________________________
What guides your steps in dealing with betrayal, infidelity, and the injurious actions of others, most particularly of family and friends–those whom you love?
What can you live with regarding your actions towards those who have hurt you?
How do you want to die?
What must you do to achieve your desires for transitioning from this life into what lies beyond?
For further discussion join me for a Twitter Chat, this Thursday, June 16th, 2011 @ 5pm PDT/6pm MT/7pm CDT/8pm EDT.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is the case for 35-year-old Sahel Ohin.
As a child Sahel, spent the afternoons of spring and summer making mud cakes. Titus brought the water, Carl the dirt from his mother’s flower garden. All three lived on the same street in Oakland, California. After mixing the dirt and water Sahel poured the mud into tin pie pans her mother had discarded. Titus and Carl would then place the pans filled with mud in the sun to dry.
This was their work.
