The Great Big Beautiful Walk

I am very grateful for this opportunity. I want it good. I’m not at all sure how things will work out, but I pray a lot for me to be kind. There is so much going on that I often miss things. I focus on walking. It’s one thing through which I have felt success, even when things have not gone as I expected. Part of me walks because I don’t know what else to do. Another part of me walks because I know this is what I’m supposed to do.

There is an awesome effort going on right now. My niece sent this to me a few weeks ago when we first talked. I think this is something we can get behind if you care about peace.

There is a significant difference between what I am up to and what these monks are offering. I am the everyday fool who loves this world. I misunderstand, I screw up, I do stupid things like marijuana and other shit too. Im not a particularly good person, but I don’t think I’m really bad either. I think I’m a regular guy, whatever that is. And I want to do my part. I’m more of a clown in my own mind. And for myself, my walk is intended as a Yoko Ono influenced advertisement. For a lot of people I will be a joke. That is intentional and hopefully disarming. I have several costumes and a few characters that given the right set of circumstances I will unveil. I’ve started off with Banal which I think of as a clown. AnOno, who is directly influenced by Yoko Ono will rise if the opportunity presents itself.

The ‘Great Big Beautiful Walk’ is another Peace Walk. Ive done these before and love the adventure.
This walk is one long hug, and ends with a special hug for Donald Trump and America itself.

I’m not really walking to protest anything; although there are some obvious things like war, hate cruelty, but I’m walking to offer something. A bit of peace, a bit of kindness, and a genuine caring hug at the border for anyone who wants one.

,This is a classroom with walls I can’t see. Where the lessons come from the land, the people I meet and the miles under my feet.

The Past

I talk about my past here

The Recent Past

2011 – I decided to take a walk

I kept an electronic journal very similar to my dads journal during the war.

I had done several Walks in past years as a peace advocate, and one I did with my dog, Jinny, because I thought it would be a great adventure. It was. And then in 2011 I did a long one from whitehorse. I have lots of pictures but I also wrote some emails that I saved. Its pretty cryptic but, they trigger some memory like

Acouple nice visits guy and wife Two year  old twins. Lost a baby

This kind of thing happened lots of days. I would take a break and often people would stop to make sure everything was ok and we would start talking. There were conversations every day from lots of directions but this one was just a gentle flowing conversation but there was more to it. They told me about the baby they had just lost, and we hugged. It was one of those moments.

The next day I met Pearl. All I wrote was

Girl pEarl walking twenty minutes Started to rain Special time

This, maybe 17 – 19 year old, walked with me and we talked for miles. I knew I would remember her for ever, and that’s what I told her because she is that special.

****Hear here is my warning****

This is important… I am a regular guy, but I have a very bad memory. One of the worst things that happened to me on the walk was that after meeting Pearl and having this super visit, a week later Pearl dropped in on me again while I was still on the road, and I didn’t know who she was, her boyfriend was with her, and he told me while she was recovering . This turned out to be a good lesson for me, but I hope I meet Pearl again because that last visit should not be the end for the pearl she is, and the walk we had together.

Blame Yoko Ono

AnOno is heavily influenced by Yoko, Banal as well but AnOno is directly hijacked from baggism,

AnOno, Banal, and Yoko Ono

I’m the student here.
My teacher is curiosity joy love pain…. life and non life
And the walk is where I embrace peace, knowledge, and health —
step by step, day by day,
all the way to the Arch.

Earth Passion

‘Earth Passion’ is a game I am creating to help me get the most out of my Walks. A great deal of the game will be devoted to my exploration of Various Peace Walks including my own. It will be an adventure game where you win by playing, gaining perspective from Sosillyology along the way.
