About Me:
We humans tend to get attached to things. We enjoy feeling certain ways and doing certain things, and we do everything within our power to feel those ways and do those things more often. This is perfectly natural, but it does carry with it some dire implications. Specifically, the crafty strategies that we devise in order to approach this and avoid that wind up taking us in circles. Our lives start to become focused on these formulas rather than the desired states of being that had inspired them. Ultimately, we find ourselves trapped in labyrinths of obsolete pleasantries, frustrated with, though largely unwilling to admit, the fact that they no longer work. From here, we spiral down into a profound inflexibility characterized by obsessive attention to impertinent minutia, growing increasingly isolated and at odds with others in the world around us. This in turn leads to all forms of violent oppression and insanity.

Reconsiderate addresses this issue by confronting the furthest extrapolations of these "obsolete pleasantries". What he uncovers are unanticipated (or acknowledged) "bumps in the road", repressed nightmares that are just itching to find their way to the surface. In these moments of confrontation, Reconsiderate's intentions are that the dysfunctional strategies be recognized as short-sighted and finite miscalculations, deserving only to be purged as we "go back to the drawing board". As such, Reconsiderate is best understood as a force that supports our spiritual and psychological evolution, even at the expense of our comfort.

The word itself, "reconsiderate", can be understood as an adjective that means "able and willing to adapt or change". It is rightly applied to anyone who understands that every aspect of his being-- from his most lofty ideals down to his most basic assumptions about life-- is subject to infinite scrutiny and is eventually destined to be torn down, razed to clear space for What Will Follow. Reconsiderate folk know when it is their time to go, and resist not at all. They work with the "little death", aware that some immutable aspect of their soul survives it, and that only this immortal facet of the soul is worth their time and attention in the first place. Why get attached to anything else??

Keeping up with the Joneses

So, if blogs are your cup of tea, and you're into RSS feeds and all of that, I've got some bad news for you. I don't do any of those things to let you know when I've got some new songs or essays or whatever.

BUT!!!

I do send out a newsletter about once every two months. (Is that "bi-monthly"? Or does bi-monthly mean twice a month? I never can get that straight.)

It's pretty fun, and some people have actually described it as "more like a blog than a newsletter" because, in addition to u… Continue

NICHE WORK CD available!!!

Finally set up my Niche Work CD for online purchase! I know a couple of you guys have already got a copy b/c we spoke in private, but it's officially available for anyone who wants it!

Alchemically speaking, Niche Work is a means of summoning, mastering and defeating the force that keeps you at a distance from your life's true work, the thing that you are meant to do with all of your skills and talents during each and every moment you spend on this ear… Continue

Here's a Thought-- Collab w/Titee

New song up! It's a collab I did with Titee... great if you're into heavy bass / drums, and fast spoken lyrics (a la rap). Be sure to check out this minute of intense awesomeness!

You are right to the word and very well said as well.
I thought that people have more than one child ´just because´ they don´t know how to have less...

´Just Because´ is such a great phrase! Can I use it?

GRATEFUL,
Pett
