At dVerse Lisa is hosting the Quadrille (44 words) with an invitation to write about Work.
dVerse Poets – Quadrille – Work
“The mind’s first step to self-awareness must be through the body.” George A. Sheehan
The Real Work Living ever forwards, as if there was no past, no questions to ask of ourselves, never seeing how we are and how we affect others is a profound dis-ease, but to sit and observe and notice what arises, surely, this is the real work.

No one wants to commit to the real hard work.

Paul, I appreciate your thought-provoking poem. I see it as a balancing between the two, but personally, I find myself caught up way too much in the cerebral part and not nearly enough in the physical aspects. Likewise a balance between looking to the past and being actively able to enjoy the present as it unfolds has been a challenge for me.

Awareness is overwhelming. We all want it, not realizing that it is the real work.
