quote: troublesome

"Our biggest problems seem to be meant to interrupt life and awaken us to our total capacity...You think the body is ill when it becomes troublesome, and you fail to realize that it is trying to dream, to communicate messages and create movements beyond your expectations."
-- Arnold Mindell, The Shaman's Body

  1. exactly...capacity is another word used to refer to what Marshall calls needs, these divine universal qualities within every one of us...met a montessori teacher in the tide pools here, the approach to which i asked of, and she said--oh we just tend to the kids' needs...another word is chi, all of which Mindell expresses well...thank you, this is a meadow i've committed to spending more time in
