Bear Camp, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska (Awesome!!) by Debra Kelly

Alaska Brown Bear

The gun shot boomed twice cutting through the frigid night air.   It was midnight and I was frozen with fear.   Did our young guide Dillon, with the big 12 gauge shot-gun, shoot a bear, or shoot himself?  Or, is he a fiction novel freakish serial killer about to kill all 9 of us idiots who paid big money to fly into Bear Camp in a small 6-seater plane that could land on a beach (big sand tires) twice a day between high tides a brutal weather conditions!

Bloody hell, I could see my breath while laying in my comfortable cot, in the dark with my runny nose so darned cold it could fall off at any moment.  With a small dim light from the propane heater it would seem easy that I could find the tissues inside my backpack at the bottom of my bed.   That would mean removing the blanket and allowing more cold air to reach me.   Zero heat was generated from the heater on 'low' because the fear of dying of some carbon gas was a warning my favorite son-in-law Danny gave me, which meant I froze the whole night long.   At least bedtime was at a respectable hour of 11pm.     I had to pee so badly but was afraid of venturing outside, alone in the dark, to the outhouses out behind our Bear Camp tents.  I was desperate and prayed for morning to come quickly.   My two tent-mates were young girls, Avery, aged 10, and D'Asia, aged 12, and gave me no sense of safety although my granddaughter, D'Asia, the 12-year-old was fearless and thus far on our Alaskan adventures the best fisherman among us.  I could wake her up and she would have held my hand.

Saborra: What You Need to Realise is Already Here by Bonita Kay Summers

Everything that you could possibly need for your full realisation is already within and around you. Everything you need is at hand. The problem is: it’s not always what you want. In fact, it rarely is. We see you resisting so many opportunities to face your pain. Yet, it’s common for humankind to bury their heads in the sand, doing their best to avoid the unpleasantness of true realisation.

In order to be free, you must first be willing to see where you have chained yourself up. To flow, you must notice where there is resistance. It’s as though you are in the river, trying to swim, without realising that your leg is chained to a rock. So, you keep your head above water for brief periods of time, until the weight of your resistance pulls you under. Can you feel how much life is like that? This brief sense of joy punctuated by longer periods of overwhelm?
