The Mask

Posted on February 16, 2016 | Leave a comment

The Mask

Always a mask

Held in the slim hand whitely

Always she had a mask before her face —

Truly the wrist

Holding it lightly

Fitted the task:

Sometimes however

Was there a shiver,

fingertip quiver,

Ever so slightly —

Holding the mask?

For years and years and years I wondered

But dared not ask

And then —

I blundered,

Looked behind the mask,

To find

Nothing —

She had no face.

She had become

Merely a hand

Holding a mask

With grace.

Announcing the passing a great worldly influence

marshall-rosenberg I am so sad to receive this news: Dr. Marshall Rosenberg has passed away on Saturday, February 7th.. It was recently discovered that he had late stage prostate cancer. He passed peacefully at home, with his wife Valentina and all his children by his side.

A beautiful man and mentor that connected me to the language of my heart! May the world remember him for his gifts.

‘Power Over, Power Under and Power With’

Posted on April 10, 2012 | 1 comment

A conceptual framework of Dr. Rosenberg’s, Nonviolent Communication is based upon understanding what he describes as ‘Partnership and Domination Paradigms.‘ Ideally with knowledge and practice of nonviolent communication participants will move towards integrating the values of Partnership paradigms into their relationships.

Domination is life alienating is dualistic thinking with power over, power under relationships. It is hierarchical head-based thinking and depends upon win/lose or lose/lose experiences.

Partnership is life enhancing and creates holistic relationships of power with. Is is hierarchical based on function, heart-based on compassion and depends upon a win/win experience.

In Victoria for April’s Awareness Campaign for Nonviolent Communication the topic for tomorrow’s Church of Truth’s Oneness Wednesday will be , ‘Beyond right and wrongdoing.’ Presented by Laurel Collins. Come and explore these concepts with us live and receive the support from a group and live practice opportunities. It begins at 7:00 p.m. at 111 Superior Street.
