FREE SPEECH LOVING THE WHOLE AND “THE LAND OF THE FREE ?”
“Sometimes it happens that we travel for a long time without knowing that we have made the long journey solely to pronounce a certain word, a certain phrase, in a certain place. The meeting of the place and the word is a rare accomplishment.”
RESPONSE NOT REACTION TRUE LOVE NOT TEMPORARY PLEASURE
This article is a very serious work in progress..Those who write and READ the New Yorker may well know what this means! This is big picture stuff. It is CERTAINLY NOT A SIMPLE folly. NOR an idle distraction, nor a passing fancy, or a social media slight to those we may not see eye to eye with.
NOR is it an ‘influence-r” having their “15 minutes of.. “. So keep that in mind and come back to this article as one would a good book! It is dynamic and updated regularly ‘..
I would also like make VERY CLEAR to readers, “DAY job’ is man made language and that, one with commitment ideas and inspiration have many strings to their BOW!! One may say it is ‘flat out” 24/7….Seriously however those that GET IT know what I mean ..
Mmm, and a plethora of many projects. that are ‘currently in development ..Stay aware of days to come loved ones it is hard work tenacity and worth the journey ..We who live in the 3rd Decade of the Women’s Century are NOT one task one hit wonders..
Our skill sets are ALWAYS EVOLVING! We just don’t need to tell the world the outcomes before the process has been worked through ..Ask our dearest, AE about that . AE he will take you through is very animated, articulate, funny, humble kind, mindful, chap! He has supplied much material on his processes .. AE’s process is always a journey and delivered in right timing .. Brilliant process too. A very 21st Century man a true auteur ..Goddess love ya work AE..
CLASS ACTIONS AND REAL PEOPLE
Microsoft could have a meeting about good process and staff numbers..They are, on 2nd warning with we at VITA/ME !! A class action may well BE pending for Mr Gates..More on that another time.. AI is NOT a real person that actually resolves issues .. Real staff matter..
Interestingly the word “dynamic: has been embraced as IT, social media speak ” This dialogue at my column VITA will always keeps evolving and indeed BE dynamic and VITAL, content that will resonate for many life times to come ..!!
21st CENTURY MEN COLLABORATIVE BEHAVIOR
My column is an Opportunity to share and engage in the written word and the courage and power to contribute and change the world, to make it a BETTER PLACE to PLAY AND WORK…’
CREATIVE EVOLVED GENEROUS KIND MEN
Yes that is UNION SQUARE, and Monet’s house, below that image. Mmm all taken by me in the 2nd decade of the ‘Women’s Century. YES and locally grown fruit in the lucky country in Spring time down-under, SEVERAL MONTHS after Barack said ‘YES WE CAN” to the USA & THE WORLD!
THINK ABOUT “being born in the USA” , and what that can mean for the WHOLE WORLD, right about NOW .. Good on ya Bruce your a 21st Century man like Barack! Go the distance speak to love and sing ones songs out loud ..
OCEAN VUONG A GREAT MAN OUR BEST LAID PLAN TODAY
MMM THIS COULD WELL BE a good PLAN!! ONE, may well CONSIDER the Vietnamese born, American citizen and writer OCEAN VUONG as the next President of the USA. LOVE THAT WHEN USA VOTERS CHOOSE TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN… OCEAN truly is a Global Citizen who migrated to the USA as a child fleeing from a war, created by the USA..
Just saying, food for thought! As an aside I have added his name and Leonardo, to the WordPress Dictionary.. No leading ya by the nose here .. One may appreciate to Read OCEAN’ S, books OR listen to Ocean speak.. He is on several well respected podcasts out there in Podcast land . Mmm try the Australian ABC Book show, very compelling and made me weep given his insights o a courageous life he has led..
It is a must do. Oprah does, she knows how to “Turn every page’ that is a quote from Robert Caro’s first editor way back in the 20th Century..
This is a Column/site for those who understand CARING CONTEXT AND BEING exceptionally GRACIOUS.and truly respectful.. MY COLUMN is for those who respond with JOY AND SELF LOVE. for those who respond NOT react. It is in fact for those who are curious about the world outside themselves, and choose to make the world a better place to BE in ..
ENJOY THE JOURNEY ENJOY THE WORK
ALL our work must NOT BE ABOUT “working for the man”. As my work on earth, is here to be savored , and allowed to be savor. An opportunity to be an act of love, a vocation.
Ocean Vuong speaks to this core issue in his work.. Those who stay the distance will understand this impeccably.. Bless you AE, you know what it is to be valued for your work ..You have gone the distance committed to your art not fame ..A triumph indeed.and the Academy love ya work as do we at Vita..
PREVIOUS TIMES AND SPEAKING TO TRUTH
As an EX political driven colleague (from a previous time in the 80s “prey tell” ), asked me in September 2007, ‘Who do you work for now’, I told him my truth ” I HAVE ALWAYS worked with and for the next generation of course”…….
THE NEXT GENERATION AND WORKS IN PROGRESS
Sadly he was unaware of what that meant, and he sadly missed his moment in the SUN..MMm, He has not, become “AN ELDER STATESMAN” in his country of origin. yet. To give him the benefit of my doubt and be kind he like us all, is a work in progress.
GLOBAL VILLAGES AND THE SPICE OF LIFE
For those conflicted by the spice OF LIFE image below, in this article ‘heads up” MMmm one may consider that we are a Global Village and food is love made visible.. This image was taken at Grand Central Station in NEW York, by ME in the late part of then 2nd decade of the Women’s Century..
Yes and below that is where Leonardo Da Vinci’ was laid to rest in France. Very much another creative genius and prolific man. It’s without doubt he to was full of, golden gracious acts, kind heart and insightful visions..
As an aside well placed Lion sculptures at the doors of the OBAMA LIBRARY WOULD BE RATHER FANCY LOVELY! IDEA .. A little Baroque a little bit NOW feel, . Mm I will keep US ALL in the loop on that work in progress LOVED ONES
LITERACY SAVES LIVES LIFE AFFIRMING A MEANS TO TRUE AGENCY
This site is ABSOLUTELY NOT a TikTok moment either. (Look at the reality of who wants to “OWN” that cyber space loved ones?. Tricky as the patriarchy entraps Social Media… I will say I have NO conscious bias for those offering a quick bite or laugh on TIKTOK )though ..

MMm oh my, life before the MEME and the sound bite /bight. Oh lala ..MMM as we know THE NEW YORKER turned 100 born on February 21st 1925 in my previous life time..
PAYING ATTENTION PIT STOPS SOCIAL MEDIA BOOKS R US
BE AWARE OF ONES, social media ‘pit stops” and BE AWARE of ones terms of engagement when doing so..It matters a lot ! As the lovely Barack, his wife Michelle, Julianne Moore, Oprah
Mary Rose, SJP and I, ALL KNOW the book has always reigned supreme and is a must do.
Now so many options ..Paperback hard copy and Kindle. Mmm and bless the smell of ink on the page at ‘old media” One of my favorite’s is, have Sam Neil read aloud to one,(on you tube prey tell in a pandemic.. MMmm very soothing ) He makes a fine wine and grows his own grapes to..All of that is up there with having a man one loves sing to ONE, out loud with love…. Mmm that genuinely matters a lot and super precious for me DSB ..
It all matters A LOT in fact. So step lightly speak with graceful joyful kindness. Genuinely this content and contribution, on MY website is a gift. It is offered with love, a part of MY journey. A moment to speak to truth and address, the messy madness of patriarchal paradigms.
EDGE OF THE MOUNTAINS GAMES PATRIARCHY PLAY
The world is on the edge of the mountain loved ones. the patriarchal anger OUT there is NOT helpful nor portraying actual kindness or anything mirroring TRUE leadership! Patriarchal blame, control and manipulative poor behavior is seriously unacceptable and is being called out at a GLOBAL level BE AWARE BE VERY AWARE …
Mmm, consider re directing ones anger into the gentle art, of hearing listening and or read the book.. out aloud to ones self Very nice .. MMMmm Practice Practice and more best Practice, does not have to BE PERFECT but could be lovely for all involved … Mmm
GLOBAL COLLABORATION IN THE THIRD DECADE OF THE WOMEN’S CENTURY

Yep and In their own words. they speak to their journey back to joyful times ..They are happy to BE facing themselves in the 3rd Decade of the Women’s Century..

Given one is curious and keen to explore, David’s podcast, it is in podcast land on Apple it is a must hear and listen to. Key words good research are key to this part of the story lines and idea.for this article as well as David’s. Quite likely Siri does not really KNOW those processes and certainly question, whether AI has any imagination or true insight at all, so always maintain ones agency figure it out ya self.
My column/ website, “word press hyperlink” has gone on annual leave it seems. Hmm or maybe the hyperlink resigned? So only one hyperlink today. Very heartfelt, thanks to JT, for sorting that out the first one on my behalf.. After thought Robert Caro will be pleased the semi colon could well BE making a come back…
WOMEN’S CHOICE WOMEN’S ROLES
ROLE OF CHOICE MIFF AND THE LUCKY COUNTRY 2025
What role have you chosen to BE to show? Have you read these books or seen this film below ? Sarah Jessica Parker, understands the value of women’s century literacy, SJP has deeply committed to the issue in fact ..
I am sure SJP, will approve of being asked and will indeed value the questions on the Red carpet in 2026.. No doubt she will certainly be coming with us on that journey. Mmm in CONTEXT, see this film below, it is absolute imperative viewing now showing at (MIFF) International Film Festival ‘August 25 in the so called lucky country”?
Google MIFF ya self I am not the social media maid ha-ha! Profound, early adopter social media, feminist statement gag .. I’m very very lioness as we enter Birthday Month! Grrrrrr, so do not cross the line or pull my tail ever !
Also interesting some search engines this week that will NOT be named, skipped work and went to the beach today for an hour it appears.. Naughty search engines Grrr. Fab early adopter, observation on the day and in the moment on what can happen when relying on search engines ! Oh the gift of the library…
PART 2 CHAPTER 8 OF THIS CECIL BE DE “‘VITA: AUGUST 2025 ARTICLE HAHA
THAT TITLE IS A CECILE B MILLE REFERENCE FOR THOSE UNFAMILIAR WITH THE CONCEPTS OR HIS FILM WORK..
CREATE SPACE BREATH ENJOY LOVE ENGAGE FULLY
it could be said, patriarchy, has engaged and relied on going to war, to create winners and losers.
Again not helpful. As we have mentioned here before “it could be said patriarchy ‘goes to war and women birth the world’…
HELLO NO one is a winner in that dynamic ‘ If your up for it have a read of the books above and below…..Create space to breath, feel love see, think of ones own needs and send those feeling and thoughts out to all of humanity ..

WORDPRESS LINKS PREGNANT PAUSE & WOMEN’S PREGNANCY JOURNEY
Hmm, my word press link, has maybe gone to the bathroom? OH DEAR for way too long, maybe stuck in cyber transit dunno, so the New Yorker article IMMEDIATELY above is currently not a hyper link .. My people will attend to It ‘in right timing.”.
The New Yorker article above, lays bare the sad state of affairs of a woman’s personal agency, being denied, during pregnancy . It puts that aspect of it in perspective.. Check the article out if you’re feeling courageous and love a woman fully… ‘Heads up” one needs BE interested and have desire to understand a woman’s journey during pregnancy and what that entails ..
Make that a true intention, when life gets in the way and one is juggling all the balls and putting all the jigsaw pieces in the least resistant position ..Breath love IN and OUT.. Be aware be really aware we all feel pain and we all hurt at some time..Our love is fragile, our world is fragile, so be kind mindful, Be gentle with others ..
‘We don’t know when love will arrive. We don’t know when it will fade. We can only know that the unexpected will happen, that certainty is a falsity, and that things will be impermanent regardless of how tightly we clench our fists around them.’
Sunita Puri, “A Gift”
So give it up come with us, we who are creating a new world order that embraces the whole. Mmm lets all GO to the mountain. Its TIME to love fully speak from the heart live and love with OUR mightiest being. Lets BE OPEN and willing to embrace our love There is only is only US.. Let love, ALL of our HUMANITY BEING as ONE. As Ben Lee says we are ‘all in this together ‘, ..And as our daring darling Yoko says “ War is over if we want it to BE… Make love not war …
Always with best intentions and delightful +++ generosity & great integrity’
Consider the other as self! MMm wear ones integrity, best intentions and love as an elegant outfit one is proud to wear and allow ones SOUL too GLOW through it… Mirror ones biggest self always.. Loving FULLY & FLAT OUT … BE LOVE IN ACTION!
AFTER THOUGHTS LEGAL MATTERS AND LIVING WITH INTEGRITY IN 2025
PS I have chosen NOT to EVER have a profile on Instagram or TikTok in fact..So to the PROCURER who is using MY websites name /branding as a TAG on these 2 sites, above, I suggest you CEASE doing so, immediately! As there could well BE legal and karmic actions taken UP VERY SWIFTLY ..This is not a request it is a necessary if one understand anything about ‘Living with ones Integrity above the line”!
Hmm I suggest also the owners of these Social Media sites lack boundaries themselves and clearly unaware of Social Media protocols of genuine access and best practice.
Such unpleasant unnecessary very uncooperative micro management style . The issues are SO enormous and there appears little understanding of equality, GENUINE FREE speech and good manners on many Social Media platforms in 2025..
It is about us those that have created, caring useful content in Social Media in the last 25 years, that truly matters. People Procuring is not actually a creative choice it is not acceptable As we say in my world, live ones OWN life create ones own content..
Social Media is an opportunity to embrace ones creative space and speak to informed content and LOVE.. Anything else, lacks integrity is very controlling and disrespectful. Social Media Owners and Procurers, alike could read a book and STOP messing with democracy and other peoples creative spaces..
THIS IS ABOUT ALL OF US LOVED ONES
