Ph.D - Harming Others

Ph.D-Harming Others

I notice more and more frequently

How – “Intellect” – “Head Knowledge”

and similar

Infest and Infect

The Worlds – I live in

Simple Example:

We had an Election

in 2024

in The USA

And

The “Brain Power”

The “Deep Words”

seemed spoke by

One Side

With Their Polls

and Their Experts

Who

To All (or most of) our

Detriment

Have significantly left us

Facing – Likely Fascism

Autocratic Leadership

-

Missing – was:

1.   Curiosity

2.   Deep Listening

3.   Acknowledging – the Hearts of So, So Many

4.   (Even not) seeing – the actual Realities ($$)

5.   Hearing – Really Hearing the Fear(s) – coming out of our Hearts

We can and are often

Both

Seeking – Deep Community

While Feeling

Isolated

Alone

Not Heard

-

As Normal Folks

We now seek:

THE ANSWER

and

There’s No

“Answer”

There are

Pathways

That (hopefully) may lead to

Answers

Which we will need to discover

Through Listening

Sharing

Working Through the Conflicts

The PH.D

Is Not

The Answer

While:  Gandhi, The Buddah, Mother Theresa, Lincoln, even Taylor Swift + of course MLK Jr and Malcolm X and Michelle

Obama and far more (you may name)

May be

Prophets

Spiritual Advisors

and More

-

We still need to Use

Our Own Intellect

Confront – The Oppression(s)

and

Oppressors

Many, if not Most

of us Readily See

Being and Becoming

The Best

Agitators, Organizers, Healing Patriots, Compromisers, Radical Activists and much more

Building

Really Building

Against All Odds

Both:

An End – to 2025’s – Atomic Bombastment

Of Most of Our World(s)

-       Taking as long as it may take

As well as Systemically Ending

The Ever Growing

State – of – Deification of

One

or Several

self – proclaimed

Gods

(they/he use the word “leader/s”)

So that the World

Can and Will Survive

Literally and Figuratively

-

I Hope

While Feeling Deep Doubts

I try – and try more and more

To Build and Support Others Building

(while taking the time to breathe, relax

And be – within my Spirit)

The Babies

Are not to Blame

For the Failures

We have brought upon Ourselves

By Not

Preventing –

The Disasters of Today

Love is the Answer

Love is an Action Word

A Process

A Core Being – Yes!

Big Girls Don't Cry

BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY My father (Menachem) Imanuel Marx died Friday, November 13, 1964, when I was 13 years old.    My mother woke my brother and I up with the news early that morning.    We went to the hospital and saw him for the last time. I didn’t cry then.       Daniel and I went to school that day.   I didn’t tell anyone. Two days later at the funeral, I was still being “a man” (i.e. not crying).   Until I was in my second men’s group around age 31, I didn’t allow myself to cry .    I rationalized this by saying to myself:   “ How does x compare with the death of my father ?”. I am self-identified as a   Jewish man .    Growing up that meant being intellectual and not emotional .    Our Sabbath dinner was the only time in the week, when we couldn’t read at the table.    While I was “schooled” on feelings through my men’s work (, most significantly through helping co-found M...

Daniel Marx - My Brother

Image
  July 23, 1953 - April 22, 2024 My brother died last evening officially at 7:57 pm in the Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey.  I was the only one in the room to see his journey move forward.    I wasn't the most "with it" of kids!   When my mother and brother came home from the hospital I evidently said:  "Who's that woman?" to my father.     In 1956, when Daniel was three we moved from Ann Arbor, Michigan to West Lafayette, Indiana.   We lived the first year in a university owned house near the intersection of Happy Hollow and North River Roads in WL.   A year later our parents bought the house at 122 North Street, across the street from Morton School where we grew up.   The upstairs apartment's living room was our bedroom, and the bedroom was our parent's bedroom. My brother was always closer to our father, and I to our mother.   In the second grade (I think Mrs...
