Here I Am: June 2008

http://campbellandreal.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html

Wednesday, June 25, 2008. Letting it all go (I know the truth about you). The practice of breathing in fear or pain or anger, of identifying these emotions as human and empathizing with all who feel them, and then breathing out calm and relief and serenity. And how quickly I forget what I read and how it is constant work to practice my beliefs. Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Thursday, June 5, 2008. External irrelevancy (redundant only until you realize it yourself). Other things I'm realizing:. Instead of freed...

Here I Am: May 2012

http://campbellandreal.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Monday, May 21, 2012. But what happens when I let that go? What happens when I stop over-identifying with my job? What happens when I realise I can’t have an eye on everything, that some things will go by without my say, without my input, without my presence? On one hand there is an immense relief. I can stop. I can not go to that event, I can not offer to cover that class. But behind that is a frightening realisation…that it will all go on without me. That I don’t need. Will someone else take my place?

Here I Am: February 2011

http://campbellandreal.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Friday, February 25, 2011. Confessions of a Buddhist's Celebrity Crush. But in reality renunciation comes in degrees, and I must confess. I do buy clothes, but mostly from charity shops and not as often as I did. I own an iPod, but it's a 2G Nano. And I watch 'television', but only DVDs, and only one boxed DVD at that: The Office. About getting pregnant (yes, I know, I saw the last episode of Season 5 - but I can't get Season 6 or 7 over here yet, so don't tell me if it's actually true or what happens!

Here I Am: July 2008

http://campbellandreal.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

Wednesday, July 16, 2008. Norwich, East Anglia, Southern England, United Kingdom. I work at a kitschy cool bar on Bedford Street called Frank's Bar. There are board games and fairy lights (a.k.a. Christmas twinkle lights), teapots and ten-year-old National Geographics, Alice in Wonderland and a rocking horse. I also work at the Green Grocers, a local, organic grocery store run by Tim, Tom, and Ben. I stock shelves, work at the till, and get free food when I play my cards right. And boys being boys:.
