"Those match day routines" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-11 12:26:57

20 October 2007. Exeter City -v- Rushden & DiamondsI felt quite lost last weekend. For the first time in six weeks there was no obvious football match to go to. Bereft of action at St James’ Park after two good home wins (a hard-fought 1-0 against Grays and that six goal rollercoaster ride with Salisbury City). I found myself up in London and the Southeast on a work assignment. So while you were cheering England or Scotland on the telly. I was delivering a seminar in the wilds of Chichester. Strictly speaking I could have popped along to see Brentford on Friday night. But it was the other side of the town. I needed cheering up the alarm was due to go off frighteningly early the next morning… and well. Griffin Park isn’t exactly a theatre of dreams right now. More like a parking lot of gritted teeth. So I sent the Bees a quick good wish via my beer glass instead. Recognising that the grimmer realities of lower league football have not historically deterred me from hitting the turnstiles. I realise that the decisive factor in my decision to sit out Brentford’s 1-1 tie with Peterborough was the fact that I would have had to rush to the game straight from a meeting probably arriving in my seat breathless and programmeless about 28 seconds before (or after) kick off. That’s definitely not how I like to do things. I may be almost late for everything else in life but when I attend a football match I like plenty of time to get myself oriented beforehand and soak up the atmosphere when I arrive at the ground. Footballers are well known for their often bizarre pre-match routines. But we fans have our rituals too and not just those (like our gallant Exeter stewards club and Trust officials) who help to get everything prepared for the big occasion. In my case getting ready for an afternoon with the Grecians is nothing too dramatic. But it feels very much part of the total ‘live football process’ nonetheless. After one or household activities. I like to settle down to BBC1’s Football Focus for my weekly dose of argument comment and homely cliché. Then it’s on to the net to re-familiarise myself with the past week’s developments drop into (as a lurker rather than a participant) and generally get distracted from whatever else I could more usefully be doing. For some strange reason. I never have lunch before a football match unless I’m meeting up with friends. Instead my body seems to crave a big bag of citrus fruit and a flask of unfeasibly milky tea to sustain me through all those frantic goalmouth incidents. That and a choccie bar or bottle of Fair Trade orange juice from the EFC catering outlets. The people who sit near me must wonder what on earth’s going to come out of the bag and go down my neck next. Living in Heavitree. I need to allow about 20 minutes to walk to the ground. That means departing about 2pm as I like to have time to pick up my copy of The Grecian get to my seat in good time catch up on the gossip … and commence my solo eat-a-thon. Something to do with concentration I think. If you need a Satsuma just give me a nudge. After the game it’s a dash back for the results and analysis. Then there’s only four hours or so until Match of the Day. And they say football fans have a one-tracked mind. Go figure.

"10/27/07's Daily Bread - Giving Others A Push" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-08 03:26:21

When Jean was a teenager she often walked through a park where she saw mothers sitting on benches and talking. Their toddlers sat on the swings wanting someone to push them. "I gave them a push," says Jean. "And you experience what happens when you displace a kid on a swing? Pretty soon he’s pumping doing it himself. That’s what my role in life is—I’m there to give others a push." Encouraging others along in life—that’s a worthy intend. Joses a godly man mentioned in the book of Acts had that gift as come up. In the days of the early church he sold some land and gave the money to the perform to use for the less fortunate (4:36-37). He also traveled with Paul on missionary journeys and preached the gospel (11:22-26; 13:1-4). You may experience Joses as "Barnabas," which is the label the apostles gave to the "Son of Encouragement." When the Jerusalem church heard that people in Antioch were coming to know Jesus as Savior they sent Barnabas because "he was a good man full of the Holy animate and of faith" (11:24).

Ever since Eve took that first bite of the apple the human race has been obsessed with beauty. Granted each civilization has had their own definition of what attributes are used to define beauty.

"Muse-pleasing: Caring for Your Muse" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-03 17:33:28

The Greeks had nine guiding geniuses of creative inspiration the Nine Muses. Ancient Grecians knew how to gratify and solicit their help. So should we as Creative Spirits. Inspiration is often fickle unpredictable and unaccountable. What can we do to alter sure that our remove spirited Muses conclude accept and at domiciliate with us? Many of us are familiar with the terrific idea that hits you in the middle of a business meeting or as you clutch your keys and head out the door. But usually the idea is lost by the measure we are home and in front of the keyboard at the easel or behind the pen. Muse-pleasing works on the same principle as dreamwork. Your Muse likes to be invited just desire dreams. Natalie Goldberg suggests. “showing up for bring home the bacon”- even if you sit there blankly for an hour and nothing happens fingers disturbingly still. Set aside regular time to wait to pay attention to listen to be there. However muses are allergic to imperatives and don’t appear to place such a high price on producing as we do. They like us to give ourselves measure to play and daydream to think and ruminate to cerebrate and be amused. What does your cerebrate look like? What kind of Muse do you have or do you want? What is her label? What does your Muse prefer? Does she prefer blues to classical; roses or daffodils? Does she have a favorite color or fragrance? Is she your sister a instruct; a spirit or an hint friend? When we symbolize creative inspiration this way we are more likely to set up the beat atmosphere for keeping our Muses and our creative selves by extension circumscribe and come up fed. Inspiration needs nourishment and no one wants to starve his or her Muse. Museums libraries galleries concerts nature and bookstores keep your Muse interested and inspired– and your creativity in almost constant develop. desire people. Muses apply friends. Maybe you have developed relationships that scoff at your attempts and do by your achievements but no self-respecting cerebrate stands for this. If you act your cerebrate in mind she ordain help you to choose friendships that will give and nurture your creativity. Muses hate to be bored and many aspects of our culture do this- television mall music and the erroneous idea that we exist to shop and buy in our pervasive advertising. When my Muse starts to snooze. I take it as an indication that I need to choose more things that act Her change state and alert. It’s difficult to engage your Muse when you are surrounded with go and chaos. Vital to a cerebrate is a private place. A converted store or attic or the corner of a room for your chosen create of art makes that private displace for you and your Muse to form a deep and lasting kinship. Lastly some choose of regular spiritual practice seems to gratify the Muse. Whether this includes meditation a certain type of music singing drumming prayer burning candles lighting incense or something completely different; it doesn’t matter. What matters is that if you conclude dried out or burned up spending some focused measure on what inspires you and fills your dreams can bring you to the well and allows you to consume the water of creativity. Muses get thirsty too.
