Hope this helps, I don't follow the calendar much - just read the essays. Nancy G.

Getting Worried
Will - It will be 3 weeks mon since I broke my foot and 3 weeks Wed since I put a cast on it. I'd VERY MUCH like to not have a cast at ACRES, in fact, I can't imagine getting from my room to the hall on fucking crutches. On the other hand, my Dr ain't going to go for taking the cast off and I don't seem to be able to find a CAM BOOT that fits me. (It goes on) I'm thinking of soaking the cast off myself on Monday but I'm wondering if that's practical (will the plaster 'get hot' when it gets wet?) I'm also afraid that with the cast off I still won't be able to walk because of disuse and, suddenly, I can't get from the parking lot to the plane. These are the things I worry about. What do you think? (The foot, btw, feels great, except it has pains in places tht I imagine are caused by walking in the friggin cast. -Allan

Title: Re: Getting Worried Allan, Excuse my asking but what are the gifts this change in your foot (ie the break) brought/bring you? What is the nature of the dis-ease you are exhibiting in these e-mails? The cosmos provides ya know. kristo writes for you today: Saturday 12/7/02 LUNA enters Aquarius at 11:54 AM CST -6GMT to end the long Void of Course, but there's nothing that's diminished in intensity except perhaps, the sense of feeling impoverished by circumstance. Whatever is weighing us down continues to intensify its influence...but the extra weight is meant to force us into droping any senseless burdens. Our responsibilities may be defined by others...but we have the right to choose whether or not to accept the commission. It's really a straightforward negotiation...and at times like this, freedom is not a luxury, but a necessity we can't afford to sell off.

Sure there's a whole lotta stuff we want to accomplish...but the price we pay for certain accomplishments is not always reasonable. The sensible thing is to allow ourselves to respond to circumstance and choose the most bang for our buck. This isn't a time to hoard resources...but there's no need to waste them on stuff we really don't need. It's a good time to check under the hood of our most immediate desires. ---In Love Light Markess From: Allan Balliett [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, 7 Dec 2002 06:49:21 -0500 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Getting Worried Will - It will be 3 weeks mon since I broke my foot and 3 weeks Wed since I put a cast on it.

Delightful implementation of language, friend. Not. Please assume more responsible gestures of articulation when in the company of the other-Us. I imagine are caused by walking in the friggin cast. What's the difference here? Is this a grammarian substitution for the same intention?

Re: getting worried
Allan, how long has it been since you've been in the cast, how long do the doctors think you need to be wearing it, and how fast do you think you're actually improving? (Remember, grumpiness is a sure sign of being on the mend G) If the doctors are saying 6 - 8 weeks and it's only been 3 then you're probably pushing it. Work with your doc and tell him your agenda. he may allow the cast to be removed if it's not all that early (by the time you're due to leave.) It's possible you or he could call ahead and arrange for someone from the hotel/facilities/airport to help you with baggage, transporting yourself, etc. Help may come from unexpected sources but you will probably have to ask for it. If the foot is really still that painful, it may be telling you that you shouldn't push it and try to travel until it's rested and healed. I don't know how involved you are with ACRES USA but you may have to delegate your jobs this year and sit this one out. If you saw the cast off yourself, be careful! They use a bone saw in the hospital. (I can see Allan now, chainsaw in hand G!) Visit our website at: www.unionag.org
Re: getting worried
Hi Allan, Great advice here from Hugh, please listen as he's right on the money. What you don't take care of now may haunt you for a lifetime. I don't know how old you are, but at thirty-nine I broke my leg and badly wretched my ankle and it was during planting season. Had thousands of starts to plant and just couldn't do anything. I planted crawling on my hands and knees and needed help to stand, the pain was horrible and it would take months more to heal than it should have. Right now you have time to heal Allan.A friend got me to slow down and take the stuff already mentioned. Within a month I was back up and at it, but I took the time to take care of myself--something you need to do now. Need to mention here though, that by pushing myself at the wrong time, I pay the price now in discomfort at times when I need to push-something that could have been prevented had I taken the time at the time to let my body heal. Pat Allan, how long has it been since you've been in the cast, how long do the doctors think you need to be wearing it, and how fast do you think you're actually improving?

Re: Getting Worried
Allan, I doubt seriously that plaster of paris is going to simply dissolve in water once it is set. Hugh Oh, great, another problem. I'm going buy how the plaster has crumbled where it has gotten wet when I've drug my toes in the snow, and so on. It'll really be great if I show up at the airport with a partially removed cast. Allan, I don't know that much about casts. Probably by soaking and manipulation you can crumble it away. I just know when my sister broke her arm, and one of my school mates broke his arm in both cases the cast was cut off. I think a doctor would have some special scissor pliers--surgical steel--for this task. Have you asked the doctor to cut off the cast and put on a lighter one? That's something commonly done.

What I can't help but be concerned about is that I posted a
phenomenal essay by Wendell Berry to this list last night but have

Jane posted: Sarah Ruth van Gelder interviews Vandana Shiva
Sarah: Let me wrap up with a personal question. Every time I¹ve heard you speak or met you, you¹ve had so much energy, not only intellectual energy, but personal or spiritual energy. I¹m just wondering, what keeps you so alive?
Vandana: Well, it¹s always a mystery, because you don¹t know why you get depleted or recharged. But, this much I know. I do not allow myself to be overcome by hopelessness, no matter how tough the situation. I believe that if you just do your little bit without thinking of the bigness of what you stand against, if you turn to the enlargement of your own capacities, just that in itself creates new potential.
And I¹ve learned from the Bhagavad Gita and other teachings of our culture to detach myself from the results of what I do, because those are not in my hands. The context is not in your control, but your commitment is yours to make, and you can make the deepest commitment with a total detachment about where it will take you. You want it to lead to a better world, and you shape your actions and take full responsibility for them, but then you have detachment. And that combination of deep passion and deep detachment allows me always to take on the next challenge because I don¹t cripple myself, I don¹t tie myself in knots. I function like a free being. I think getting that freedom is a social duty because I think we owe it to each other not to burden each other with prescription and demands. I think what we owe each other is a celebration of life and to replace fear and hopelessness with fearlessness and joy.

when we defend a wrong action how are we then able to stand for a right one? and why on earth is anyone taking sides?
