On one of my research trips to Ireland, I visited the National Museum and viewed an exhibit of Bog Bodies. These were individuals who had been discovered buried for centuries within the bogs throughout the country. I was struck by my own emotions as I viewed these remains. At one point, I just wanted to place a warm blanket over their leathered remains and wish them a safe journey to be with our Lord. </div>

<b>Upon Viewing the Bog Bodies of Ireland</b><br />
Inside<br />
the exquisitely sculpted rotunda,<br />
behind exhibits of gold and amber adornments,<br />
exposed in tombs of plexiglass,<br />
lay remains of people<br />
who once held hands,<br />
smiled gently to their loved ones,<br />
kissed softly on moonlit nights.<br />
<br />
Centuries pass,<br />
<br />
and as her silent witness meets theirs,<br />
she senses a tear's warmth<br />
and whispers a prayer<br />
that their spirits are far away<br />
and at peace. <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"></span> <em>Political philosophy is an extension of the mind’s eye to the whole great scale of civil society, and demonstrating the close-linked dependencies of its remotest parts, affords to the benevolence of the human heart, and the comprehension of the human understanding, a social system, gratifying to the feelings of the one, and ennobling to the faculties of the other. </em>(33)</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">The human heart and 'comprehension of understanding,' which I will identify as consciousness, are two distinct entities, for the heart, aside from its organic characteristics, contains the essence of human emotions. In contrast, comprehension of understanding involves the assimilation of intelligence and critical analysis as they interact with the psycho-physiological structure in a wondrous flow of human experience. I reflect on this concept in the following poem:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia"; mso-bidi-font-family: Times;"> Revolutionary philosophy of the sixteenth through

circuitous pathways of innovation and circularity within societal parameters,
creating awareness of cultural change, often through literary
articulation. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia"; mso-bidi-font-family: Times;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>During the long eighteenth

lexical combinations of Irish, English and European colloquialisms, drawing
upon the historical and philosophical perceptions of René Descartes, John
Locke, and Immanuel Kant to transform her romantic tales into narratives
of political inquiry. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b>W<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">hether you'll be bringing in the New Year with a crowd, by candlelight, </span></b></i><br />
<i><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">or by the light of the moon, </span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">may your illumination lead you to peace, love and joy!</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
</span> </i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">The new year begins as any other day with the exception of a different numeral representing the earth's orbit around the star we call </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">sun</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">. Often, we use this time to mark an opportunity to make changes; however, change can occur more readily if one is clearly aware of that which may or may not need alteration. With this in mind, below are three New Year's creative challenge options:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small;"><br />
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">OPTION I:</span></b></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">1. Get a piece or two of paper and a pencil. Yes, I said paper and pencil. Okay, you may use a pen if that's all you have.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">2. Find a quiet place and plant yourself. (It could be indoors or outdoors.) Get comfortable.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">3. Close your eyes; breathe slowly in; exhale very slowly out. Repeat this a few times until your mind is calm, open and receptive.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">4. Be aware of every sensory response that you experience for 10 minutes and write them down in the form of a sensuous poem.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">OR</span></span></b></span></div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">OPTION II:</span></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Ask yourself what it is that you will do this year to advance humanity (or simply yourself) toward a higher level of consciousness. Then write a poem about it.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">OR</span></span></b></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Write your own version of 'Auld Lang Syne.' </span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times";">This Christmas
poem was written a few years ago after I overheard a woman in the grocery
store concerned that she didn't have enough cloves for her hot mulled wine. (Four bottles of cloves weren't enough? Ha!) I think Mary spoke to me personally that
day, whispering into my subconscious, "Jeanne, you have to write this....
now!"</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "times";"> </span><span style="font-family: "times";">Merry Christmas!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #228822; font-family: "arial"; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "garamond";">Thomas Paine differentiates between natural and civil rights of man, with the latter originating from the former. He interprets the aristocracy’s use of language as a means of establishing a sense of power. Echoing the consciousness of the eighteenth-century philosopher, John Locke, Paine elucidates for his readers an emerging global consciousness in<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><i>Rights of Man</i>:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<i><span style="font-family: "garamond";">The progress of time and circumstances, which men assign to the accomplishment of great changes, is too mechanical to measure the force of the mind, and the rapidity of reflection, by which revolutions are generated: All the old governments have received a shock from those that already appear, and which were once more improbable, and are a greater subject of wonder, than a general revolution in Europe would be now…. what we now see in the world, from the Revolutions of America and France, are a renovation of the natural order of things, a system of principles as universal as truth and existence of man, and combining moral with political happiness and national prosperity.</span></i><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_ftnref1"></a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=7265615433200755531#_ftn1" style="color: #954f72;"><span style="font-family: "garamond";">[1]</span></a><span style="font-family: "garamond";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "garamond";"><br />Our politicians of the twenty-first century could do well to consider Mr. Paine's words. These fundamental beliefs authentically provide his readership with contrasting attributes of the narrow vision present in governmental hierarchy in contrast with those belonging to humanity in general. A correlation between humanity and nature formed the consciousness of revolutionary thought, which eventually fed into the elaborate (and beautiful) artistic, musical, and literary expressions of romanticism.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "garamond";"><br />It's October 18, 2023. Are we on the brink of realizing free expression, found within the core of human creativity....or... are we on the brink of a constrained life experience, found in a contrived order as the result of total control of the human mind? <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> The quote below has lingered in my thoughts today. So much political rhetoric seems to fill the airwaves, and I grow weary of the interpretations and re-interpretations of those who are currently striving to fulfill their dreams on the political stage. I can only hope that these individuals have the citizens' best interest in their hearts. As human interactions continue to evolve, the words of this 16th century writer have renewed vitality. Enlightenment inspires vision. </span></div>

Below, I've posted a small poem that I wrote having taken a few Irish Gaeilge classes. I'm still not sure if the grammar is correct, but I think you'll get the idea anyway. I took the photograph just as I was leaving a conference at NUI Galway. I didn't know just how gorgeous the beach was until I was on my way out of town and passed this view heading out on my way to Sligo. </div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "garamond"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Revolutionary philosophy of the sixteenth through
nineteenth centuries provides momentum for the transformation of consciousness,
circuitous pathways of innovation and circularity within societal parameters,
creating awareness of cultural change, often through literary articulation.
During the long eighteenth century, Sydney Owenson constructs her national
tales by configuring lexical combinations of Irish, English and European
colloquialisms, drawing upon the historical and philosophical perceptions of
René Descartes, John Locke, and Immanuel Kant to transform her romantic
tales into narratives of political inquiry. She incorporates the German
philosophical influences of Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Georg Wilhelm Friedriech
Hegel, and Arthur Schopenhauer, initiating innovation in forms of cultural
awareness. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "garamond"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>As her writing matures, her nineteenth century
contemporary scientific approach to human dignity resonates with Auguste
Comte’s philosophy, revealing her personal experience with societal
expectations. Her voice maintains a necessary fortitude in terms of her
feminine perspective, placing Irish ideology into the center of English culture
at the onset of the Ascendancy, while she illustrates foresight in challenging
the political stance of the United Kingdom in the early decades of the
nineteenth century. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

One, in particular, is a memory of that brand new box of crayons I always looked forward to seeing in my clean book bag, so lovely and organized, ready for the new school year. Hmmm... a childhood dilemma, which crayon shall I choose first?<br />
<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Back to School </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">(or) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">A New Box of Crayons</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is nothing as sweet as the waxy aroma</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of a brand new 64-count box of Crayola crayons</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
bought especially for that first day of school.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has the crayon sharpener right on the box!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And oh, the most marvelous feeling:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
sliding the very first crayon out of its sleeve.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Periwinkle Blue! Carnation Pink! Burnt Siena!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What does it mean, this little box of crayons?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Summer is over! Those lazy, creative days sitting</div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
under the maple tree, dreaming of 'next school year'</div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
are etched forever as summer memories,</div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
and those encouraging messages </div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
from last June now come to fruition. </div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
New books, new shoes, new clothes,</div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
New hope, new friends! Old ones, too, </div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
but now with new stories to share. </div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Early autumn, with its cool breezes, </div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
whisks variegated leaves that dance </div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
among fallen, multi-hued apples:</div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nature's fresh box of crayons</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
tossed with a sanguine force that energizes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
each step toward the school's front door.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Like the rainbow after a summer rain,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
kind smiles herald enlightenment</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that radiates from a Teacher's love.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

An innovative idea is a call to action to make a difference in this world. A brilliant person once shared with me the significance of a single leaf used as a metaphor for the human condition. Since transformation originates from a single notion, I thought this little poem may contribute a genesis of consciousness. </div>
