Slide Rule

Centered in Authentic Connection:

The goal and balance point.

Angled downward—shame, blame, & guilt.

Giving up is easier than playing when the game is rigged against you.

Slide up a bit love.

You know better.

Angle upward—false pride, striving for perfection & worth.

Use of power and leverage to earn rewards and gain validation.

Slide it down a bit love.

You know better.

No worthlessness.

No worthiness through action.

You meeting me.

Me meeting you.

One divine child

At play with another.

Each moment

We start a new game.

Hello.

Hello.

Do you like my hat?*

I do, What a hat!

I like it! I like that party hat!

Good-by. (Leaving together)

Good-by.
