1. Describe your childhood room. Well, I remember the room at Elmira with Rob, mine on the right hand side of the room - under the window, the wardrobe nearby. I liked having posters.. The NBA one was my favourite. Then Rob moved downstairs and it was my room - though Soph needed to sneak through to get to hers. I had a desk. The one with a formica top. And a sticker of the Walker Books bear on one the drawers. One draw had partitions and a round wooden knob. The other a silver handle - that draw was jammed against the wall. It always had heaps of shit in it. Favourite thing - not sure. The favourite thing about my room when I moved downstairs was probably just being downstairs to be honest. I felt free. Room now - well I share it with the children... I have a desk, a writing table. My bed, a chest of drawers. Favourite thing - picture of Ariel and pictures by them. I would like a white board and some more adornments for the wall. As well as the children's room. Geez. This makes me feel terrible.
2. 5 traits in myself as a child, I like are playfulness, originality (really?), outgoing, energetic, brave, intelligence, grokking
3. 5 childhood accomplishments the over!!! (5 wickets and a run out). Rocky in Hat Trick. The innings vs 1st XI. The Jabberwock recital. Goal from halfway. 3 straight Jimmy Carter Quiz wins.
5 favourite childhood foods self-saucing chocolate pudding, Lasagne, Spaghetti bolognaise, cheese on toast. Debs bacon and eggs and fry ups. Splash popsicles.
4. Habits - 3 obvious rotten ones: internetting aimlessly... biting my nails... not making lunch
3 subtle ones: not getting into nature.... not meditating... not writing (not having an overarching discipline is the key one).
5. List of friends who nurture me:
Yas, Tash, Al, Serge, Willow, Soph, Max, Pete, Rob. That is all I think.
Tash: she knows me better than anyone other than Yas, Rob and Soph... she is very empathetic she is honest she is real she has integrity
Serge: he is a really beautiful man, he has massive integrity, he has enthusiasm, ambition, passion... in short he is a really quality man.
Soph: so much wisdom, so much love, very talented, very creative.. an inspiration to her big brother
6. call a friend... maybe make time to call Tash. See how she is going
7. Inner Compass - this week I must do an activity that follows my inner artist compass - LISTEN TO THE INSIGHTS THAT BUBBLE UP
8. 5 people I admire are:
Soph, Jay, Beant, Sergey, Hjalmar
5 people I secretly admire are
Angus (coolcat, ability to be easy), Amy (happy go lucky, always up for it), Simon (chilled out), Crunk (in control, ability with women), Pete (just a champ on a lot of levels)
9. 5 deadmans or wumans I wish I'd met
HCH Pearse, Robert Laurs (the original), William Blake, Ernest Hemingway, Seneca
5 deadmans I want to hang with in eternity
William Blake (creativity, art, genius)... Thoreau (simple living, a right life)... Einstein (play, fun, yarns) [this is quite difficult - I want someone with spiritual insight Gandhi, Buddha, Campell, Ralph Waldo Emerson] Bill Hicks - we could take ayahuasca together! Goethe seemed rad. Steiner too. John Seymour - get our gardens on.
10... perhaps I kinda confused the two - this step is about comparing the two lists of 5 to see who you would rather etc...
I would love to hang with the two patriachs, the visionary artist/poet, the Stoic philosopher.. Goethe too.. Abraham Maslow... man, just think of all the characters you hit up on wikipedia... CG Jung for instance.
NEED TO GO ON AN ARTIST DATE THIS WEEK. LAST WEEK WAS CURB! LET'S DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT
