What are your rules for life?

No rules. Rules come about when one does not hold true to the natural path of things. Rules are too rigid to survive and ultimately get eroded and broken by the river of life. Rules are a substitute for responding in the moment. Any rules I govern my life by, shoulds and shouldn'ts are attempts to decide now what needs to be felt into in the moment of what ever IS. Rules are synthesized principles imposed from outside the moment in an attempt to think we know how things should be. It is a courageous place to stand to know that we really have no patented answers that apply to all phenomena. It is our tendency to incorrectly impose rules without any bearing or wisdom on a situation so that we don't have to think and be response-able.
