We Are Searching For The Core Of Our Lives; Our Culture Intuits That Writing, That Ancient Activity, Might Be The Pathway...awakening Does Not Feed Ego's Needs And Desires; It Pulverizes The Self. Our Society Couldn't Knowingly Bear Such Reduction, So We've Tricked Ourselves Into The Same Path But Call It Writing.

I Don't Know Anything But Writing Practice, And So What I Really Do Is Direct That Energy As If It Were Flowing Down A River.

Once You Have Learned To Trust Your Own Voice And Allowed That Creative Force Inside You To Come Out, You Can Direct It To Write Short Stories, Novels, And Poetry, Do Revisions, And So On. You Have The Basic Tool To Fulfill Your Writing Dreams. But Beware. This Type Of Writing Will Uncover Other Dreams You Have, Too-going To Tibet, Being The First Woman President Of The United States, Building A Solar Studio In New Mexico-and They Will Be In Black And White. It Will Be Harder To Avoid Them.

This Is What Metaphor Is. It Is Not Saying That An Ant Is An Elephant. Perhaps; Both Are Alive. No. Metaphor Is Saying The Ant Is An Elephant. Now, Logically Speaking, I Know There Is A Difference. If You Put Elephants And Ants Before Me, I Believe That Every Time I Will Correctly Identify The Elephant And The Ant. So Metaphor Must Come From A Very Different Place Than That Of The Logical, Intelligent Mind. It Comes From A Place That Is Very Courageous, Willing To Step Out Of Our Preconceived Ways Of Seeing Things And Open So Large That It Can See The Oneness In An Ant And In An Elephant.
