V for Vendetta

I watched V for Vendetta again yesterday. The movie moves me to my core. Its intelligence, its verbal fluidity, its cinematic beauty rivets my attention, energizes my will to do, supplants my aged cynicism with a reborn idealism to work for freedom, to work for the space to become, to expand and to settle as Reality present itself. This is such an import film.

As Richard Rorty said "Take care of freedom and truth will take care of itself."

The joy of discovery and living in the moment

The title of this blog is taken from the joy felt when a child finally masters the balance of a bicycle. From training wheels to smooth gliding and finally to two-wheel graduate school: no hands. That simple task of letting go and trusting the universe, feeling balance and centered without a care in the world.

Attention and focus in the moment are ways we can let go and live, shouting "Look, No Hands!"
