How far out does each of our “circles” of “us” extend…???
At what point might our circles of “us” stop…..???
…and beyond that is considered “them”…???

We probably love, cherish and care deeply for those inside our circles of “us”…
We probably support, protect and defend those inside our circles of “us”…

At times, we may fear or avoid intrusion of “them” into our protected circles of “us”….
In our lives, we may have felt frightened of, or confused by,
people we may consider to be outside our own circles
We may not have understood the differences….and the similarities….

We may have created more firm, rigid perimeters or borders on our circles of “us”
Or…..we may have chosen more flexible perimeters or borders on our circles of “us”

Understanding and recognizing how we might be creating…. “circles” of “us”…….
Understanding and considering how we might choose to expand and extend…
our circles of “us”

perhaps….considering….extending our circles of …. “us”

“us”

“……us……”

“……………us……………”

“………………..us………………..”

Isn’t this an amazing awareness????

Just like myself……………….

Just like myself, 7.3 billion of us wish to feel happy and contented
Just like myself, 7.3 billion of us with to feel healthy and strong
Just like myself, 7.3 billion of us with to feel loved, respected and appreciated
Just like myself, 7.3 billion of us wish to feel safe and protected…
Just like myself, 7.3 billion of us wish our families and loved ones to live happily and long

Just like myself…………………

May we each support each other in achieving these wishes

Perhaps….reflecting…
Perhaps….considering
Perhaps….varying and extending…
the diameters…the “boundaries”…the permeability…the flexibility…
of our circles of “us”

Circle Round for Freedom

Circle round the planet
Circle for each soul
For the children of our children
Keep this circle whole

Circle round for freedom
Circle round for peace
For those of us “imprisoned”
Circle for release

Circle round the planet
Circle for each soul
For our future generations
Keep this circle whole.

“imprisoned….???”…
wow….strong word!

hmmm….speaking for myself, sometimes I DO seem to get “stuck”…
feeling……….“imprisoned…???”

Sometimes,  I do feel a bit “imprisoned”
feeling……
stuck in my own opinions, points of view and perspectives
stuck in my own types of thoughts, beliefs and habitual patterns…
stuck in my own likes and don’t likes, wants and don’t wants…
stuck in my own  limiting versions of “us” and “them”
sometimes…. I do feel a bit stuck….

Other times……I seem to be becoming more flexible…………. 

But, often I’m finding it soooooo challenging to expand… to extend…..to be more flexible…

And hence… I’m creating this post… pondering these ideas….
possibly….. opening and shifting some of my own perspectives….
sharing these ideas with anyone who might find some ideas of value in here
