#011 As we believe, so we act. As we act, so we become.

Your worldview or cosmoperception is a broad panorama of beliefs, facts, and values. Is a garden you need to cultivate. "What do you believe?" These ideas come from whom?" Who are your mentors?". And this garden is planted in us.

#010 Reality as a wave function

#010 Reality as a wave function

None of these stories are new. They move like waves and communicate through echoes that resonate with each other. And yet it is in their purpose to be told once more. Dreaming of a time yet to come.

#009 Seeking internal waters

#009 Seeking internal waters

Something curious is that as we don't know much about the waters of our planet – we have a terrestrial bias, as I learned with my friends from Billion Seconds Institute in a recent online session – we also are in uncharted waters about our emotions as the language of our feelings.

#008 Temporalities don't need to be rescued, but honored

#008 Temporalities don't need to be rescued, but honored

#006 Beginnings, middles, and beginnings

#004 More than just fortuitous events

#003 Dreams of Abundance

#003 Dreams of Abundance

Once I had a dream. A really tall creature with a skin that looked like the darkness of the universe, full of bright stars, arrived and explained the next steps in the present would not be for those who are already here. "To whom, then?" I remember to ask. "Them,", the entity said.

#002 Contratempo

#002 Contratempo

In English, "contratempo" is a setback. It is an event that delays your progress or reverses some of the progress that you have made. Do you know the feeling? Sooner we start a new individual or collective movement it feels that real life comes with a challenge.
