You are the eyes and ears and first responders
to self & to all else that exists and breathes around us ...

All my work and writing is based on my book the One Living System (found here). Our place amongst the sacredness of Life and the journey of our return back to its oneness is this moment and the next ... how we live into this, will depend on our waking as the giants that we are to all we can offer to this Life.
Pay attention - everything matters
This is the important piece that we need to truly drink in. This is the space of going oh wow - when it comes to understanding our role here in Life. This is the place where we even turn within and look to see how much attention we truly are paying… to ourselves … to Life … to everything that is alive around us.
There is everything for us to remember here, and that is time, and stillness, and presence, and silence, and being, and listening, and observation, from all past lineages to this moment now. This is a turning within that takes us all back to our origins.
To pay attention is absolutely the greatest asset that we have, it is without doubt our absolute best line of defence. But before that it is our gifted OFFENCE.
That we observe and pay attention to all relations that we hold is the key to holding and maintaining wellth. We are each our greatest ally in saving ourselves, those around us, the world. We are the eyes, ears and first responders to every thing that occurs on a daily basis and what we observe is vital to the understanding of all that is happening in and around us. We will be taught daily by life, by our own bodies, the land around us, the relationships we have, everything is revealing to us a conversation concerning that moment and what is to come.
We need to pay attention.
We need to know.
The Human Intention
I could have chosen the word ‘design’ or ‘advantage’ for this heading. Both of which hold deep familiarity for those paying attention. The well known Human Design possibility reveals intention for each of us.
opens a door to the essence of our human advantage, there is intention there too.The language of ‘Human Intention’ reminds us that we are made with intent. We come to Life with intent from Life. That whilst we each hold purpose, Life’s own purpose for our creation and unfolding offers us the capacity to honour Life itself. To revere Life and to humbly ‘do Life’s work’ with our hands, perhaps at times on our knees or prone at the feet of Life itself.
The Human Intention reveals that through us, we offer eyes and ears as first responders. We hold the capacity to see and hear, to feel and to hold inner knowing, to which end we have arms and legs to carry ourselves and our kin to places and spaces, to healing, to home.
The Human Intention is that we have a mind and consciousness that Life seeks us to use to caretake when she cannot. To steward when she is busy. To always come with love and capacity for compassion.
It is important to understand this - to BEGIN - with this knowing for what follows is the upholding of all else through this. Because of this. For this.
The Human Intention is the hands, the heart, the being, the capacity, the potential of all that we are, in service AS Life, for Life. We do her work, here on Earth and within the Universe, and uphold its pathways for evolution.
I mean - just pause a moment to truly comprehend that.
From a wellth perspective
Understanding the Human Intention for our WELLth means we understand that our role is to uphold the wellth for all. That all things can be well, and are in fact always seeking to be well, and harmonious within the system of Life.
That our role, to honour the lands, not degrade them; to nurture our kin, not harm them; to replenish the air for breath, not clog it; to witness Life becoming, not limit it; to open our hearts and minds to All That Is, not remain blind to the truth; to revere the Universal Oneness of all Life, not fear it; ….. IS all our essence.
From this eternal Life essence and intention lay each of our purpose. AT the core of who we are, we all hold the essence and energy of Life’s fulfilment, expressed and offered as our own Life purpose.
As first responders, we hold great responsibility.
We know this. We know the importance of those who first bear witness to something. We know that the earlier we respond the greater the capacity to adjust and make change and utilise Life’s own fast feedback loop in our favour!
From a human perspective, the earliest detection possible of any disruption in the body, mind or soul gives us a few advantages. It isn't only that you can help to alleviate any symptoms and help to thwart progress of symptoms or illness, it's also important in that we can find the root cause connection more easily through which not only do we prevent onset, we prevent re-occurance, which can only be done from a root cause place.
One of the greatest ailments that we encounter throughout life is the accumulation of multiple dis-eased states, that sometimes coincide, sometimes conjoin, most often aggravate all other functions in the body. Smallest observations avoid great dilemmas. Making note daily of our mental, physical and soulful state, paying attention to our food intake, how much and what kinds, knowing the levels of stress we are being stretched to, seeing how all of this builds reaction in our being, all of this, means we hold opportunity to harness wellth and bring about our greatest vitality.
From the lands perspective, our kin, our kind, we can utilise this gift to truly tune in to their needs and offer the greatest wellth for each and all. We are no different to all that is around us, and the ailments that can load into any living system becomes an unbearable weight that offers dis-ease to rise. We can sense that, see that change, feel its coming and allow the place and biota that reside or traverse there opportunity to change and meet its greater wellth.
Paying attention is the defence to all things matter, and if used with foresight becomes our offence.
Knowing that all things matter, every intricate detail, every intimate detail, means we have to be paying attention to see or feel them. We have to be present to sense into them. Every little nuance can trigger a landslide. That something appears small and inconspicuous in early stages left untreated or without constant observation can become something so much more aggressive. Paying attention means take note, write it down, remember.
In using this strategy for our offence, we can foresee and alleviate issues when we pay attention. Knowing how much stress we are in, we can avoid taking on even more stressful scenarios. When we witness our bodies beginning to feel frail we can rest. When we see the land bending from the weight of the animals it is carrying, or the trees that are growing we can act to move them and allow rest.
From a Living System perspective
We are told so much through life's language that speaks to us each moment of the day. A gentle breeze will tell us the story of the wind's movement, it can warn us of greater winds to come. The wash of the waters on the ocean can speak of huge tides coming our way, how the animals move on the land can tell us what weather is looming. Just observing the way the fruits grow each season can reveal not only the soil composition but also changes to the pollinators or pests in the area. Deeply understanding the existence of fungi where we live, the mycorrhizal connections threaded through our lands will teach us of the connections that exist far beyond our own seeing. It's a lot, there's much to learn, but when paying attention we can fall into greater alignment with life and her flow, and move with her for everyone's benefit. The more time we have stewarding a land and living amongst its people we truly become one with its ways, we read it like a paper, we learn to hear its tones, we sense it through haptics, we know every movement and what each reveals.
The relational ethos that we inherit from the land and people is the Living Systems way and when we learn the language of this, as revealed by nature, we not only live in the now but can foretell all that is to come, just as our forefathers and mothers did. Pay attention means creating bioregional maps that hold every intricate detail of all that lives within the world in which we each live to reveal its story.
Knowing what's happening at each step allows us to navigate and translate with life, which means we never fall out of sync or harmony with her, which allows all things to be well for all to be well (can you see how all this is weaving together?)
Early detection is early course correction in every manner.
There’s no part of the Living System that this doesn't apply to, human, more than human even sacred life is in constant conversation with the other and when in harmony builds to work for the total wellth of the whole. At any point we only have what we know to work with, information is powerful when we use it as conversation carriers that speak of the feelings and needs, the warnings or alerts of all things to come.
The more we know the more we have to work with and create a more accurate and effective response. This response can then be flexible and rapid when we are keeping up with its needs. The more we know, the more information we have to gain help from all that is around us, this is such an important acknowledgement.
The more informative we can be, in relaying a story of need of any life form to another allows us greater capacity to not only diagnose what is wrong, but prescribe what is right.
At any time the list of ailments continues to grow and with as much insight as possible, every detail we can observe counts towards the agility and capacity to respond.
The Human Intention
Is you. Is me. IS US.
We are the ones armed with capacity to create wellth, maintain wellth, honour wellth for all of Life. Our inner essence knows this, it is why instinctively you see people act for the aid of someone or something else, at times of crisis we reach out. It is in our bones to tend and care, we are often too exhausted to even try. But it is there, deep within, that energy of Life that seeks for us to honour Life and serve the needs for wellth for all.

UN AI’d
just a statement that all that I write and offer - is from Divine connection tossed with Life reality and massaged thoroughly with conscious intention - completely unAI’d.
The idea that we are Life’s first responders, armed with attention, compassion, and the capacity to act reframes stewardship as both a sacred duty and a daily practice which is a really good perspective to have.
Thank you for this wake up call to step into our role with courage and love. 🙏🏿♥️
Love practicing “First Responder”
