Seth’s Blog Like Mary Shelley
This post addressed the innovators the likes of Mary Shelly, Henry Ford, Google and Tesla and how this particular groups or individuals were so revolutionary, people wanted to be the Google of _____. This highlighted the idea that being someone who does something different, inspires others to follow in your footsteps. Zen Habits Resting in the Open Nature of Life This blog was all about how as humans we are full of stress and anxiety because everything is unstable. However, this post then gave steps on how to rest in the fluid openness of it all. It gave some examples like, “we can try to box the blue sky or rest in its openness.” Quiet Revolution When your Ideal Self isn’t your Real Self This was the story of Annabel Pitcher coming to terms with the fact that she is not the extrovert she thought she was. She had for years presented herself as a fun, loving up for anything classic extrovert. Yet she often found herself relishing introverted activities. Though the post she comes to terms with being proud of how she is, instead of forcing herself to be the “ideal” version of herself. For me, all these blogs really connected with the Socratic questioning work we did this week. Asking myself the nature of “Why” is reflected in the all three of these blogs. Rather than forcing ourselves into a quick answer each blog addresses the allowing of the new, different and openness to guide us on our path. I’ve still been resonating with the labeling work we did last week and these blogs brought up those thoughts again for me. The idea that we try to label things to make sense of them, when really we don’t need to label people or ourselves because we are beyond definition of the words that we as humans could create.
