    Silence, Music, Mystery and Love. A user's guide to becoming awesome.

    Quitting shitfuckquitmotherfuckingsmokingfuck! I'm an alarmist sometimes. So when I freak out, which takes some doing, I really freak out. I suppose there are those who would consider my particular brand of freaking out fairly tame, but it sure doesn't feel that way. I quit smoking on...

    Silence, Music, Mystery and Love. A user's guide to becoming awesome.

    J So I met someone. I met her online and... I know, I know... whatever. She's pretty awesome. Of the dozen or so people I have contacted or been contacted by, she is by far the most real connection I've made. We've exchanged countless emails telling of ourselves and reveling in the similarities...

    Why and how did you get into poly?

    Hi. Welcome to the forum. The short answer to this is no. What makes YOU happy. That should be your concern. To think that all the changes have been yours is a limited perspective. All three of you have obviously gone through changes, and I would imagine that you have all had difficulties...

    Silence, Music, Mystery and Love. A user's guide to becoming awesome.

    Cultivating awesomeness I have learned a few things on this journey that have made it possible for me to open myself to the experience of love without boundaries. That is, being in love with my love while she loves another and he loves me and we all three love loving. Whew. That's a lot of...

    Book "Radical Acceptance" Study and Practice Group

    So, Radical Acceptance has been a doorway for me. I, too, haven't finished it. It's intense like that. At the beginning, it resonated with me. "The trance of fear" is a state I know well. So I dove into it. I began meditating and using the techniques described to good effect. I felt calmer. I...

    Silence, Music, Mystery and Love. A user's guide to becoming awesome.

    When this journey began, I saw it a something new and wild. Living on the fringe. Bravely going where precious few have ever dared. And in a way, I was right. This world we live in has been constructed over the last few centuries as a patriarchal, monogamous, male dominated mess, fraught with...

    Poly-Friendly Counseling?

    I recently started seeing a counselor who specializes in ACT. (acceptance and commitment therapy) I've found it very helpful. I was moved in this direction by a wonderful book suggested to me by River called Radical Acceptance. Also very, very helpful. My best advice would be to say that any...

    Silence, Music, Mystery and Love. A user's guide to becoming awesome.

    This is my progress. And I make it (semi) public because declarations are powerful. I keep a lot of things private for the same reason. To the end of becoming awesome (read: to become as free a doer as I am a thinker), I have embarked on my current journey. This includes a regimen of physical...

    Silence, Music, Mystery and Love. A user's guide to becoming awesome.

    30 Days I am nearing the end of a "30 days of gratitude" experiment in which I find something to be genuinely grateful for every day. Today is day 29. This has been an easy exercise. 30 days always goes by faster than you think it will and there's much to be thankful for in my life. It's also...
