very small thoughts of jan hoyer

Sorry for the two as yet missing photo album(s), but a couple important things have came up that need immediate attention. Though simple, creating an online photo album takes an amount of time.

On this September 10th and 11th, I had opportunity to chat with a large number of Kansas City area people. With public awareness and sympathy towards the 9/11 truth issue at an all time high, what better way to alienate mainstream America than for activists to come across as a bunch of rabid fanatics. Yes, it does seem like at least some of this is being guided by design.

I’ve been one to go on rants about the negative effects of over competition (and will walk away because of it). Motivation driven by a sense of keen competition may be productive in the near term, but competiiton eventually becomes nemesis to real friendship and altruistic cooperation for the greater good.

Reading Emanuel’s analysis again, and finding wisdom in his messages. Vic responded that reading Emanuel’s powerful letter was like coming home. It truly does feel like a unique shifting time in history, when the forces of light, compassion and positive energy need to be considered in each one of our communications. It is important to be forgiving to others and ourselves. None of us are perfect and we ALL make mistakes.

Emanuel’s letter also served as a positive reminder of a favored Eastern philosophy The Te of Piglet book, so I picked it back up yesterday and have been devouring, reflecting on it.

I will be taking a few weeks away from activism efforts. This is one of those topsy turvey months in my family, and there is a lot of career work to do. On top of eveything, my closet and bathroom area is a Disaster. This change of season I have been crazily busy and in the midst of it all, most of my clothes no longer fit. Nice problem to have, but it is clothing mountain mayhem in my home right now.

I always enjoy looking at other’s photos, and would really appreciate being able to see other people’s web photo albums. Wishing you the best, check out this great link to secrets of nice web photo album creation. (please forward me links to all of your fancy new activism albums).

I just got back from a 2 mile solo bike ride. Great for the spirit and confidence. Went half a mile steadily with NO HANDS if you believe that. Soft crashed a few times but it only added to the adventure. We fall down and bounce back up.

very grateful, jan
