En la #metanoia se conserva la #falsabilidad como eje. En la #psicosis no.
#metanoia
Me jode por mi profunda convicción anticristiana, pero en la biblia aparece la #metanoia: "No os conforméis a este siglo, sino transformaos por medio de la renovación de vuestro entendimiento" Romanos 12:2
#Metanoia: Si no cambia, no es saber.
Tuesday of the Thirty-third Week in Ordinary Time
I just love this story about Zacchaeus! In particular, there are two main components of the story that really stand out for me as hallmarks of the spiritual life.
The first is Zacchaeus’s openness. First, he is so eager to see Jesus that he climbs up a tree to get a look at him. We don’t have to go that far. All we have to do is spend some time in Eucharistic Adoration, or even just some quiet moments reflecting on Scripture, or meditative prayer, even participating in Mass. All of those are ways to see Jesus, but like Zacchaeus, we have to overcome obstacles to get a look at him. For Zacchaeus, that meant climbing up a tree to overcome the fact that he was apparently vertically challenged! But for you and me, that might mean clearing our schedule, making our time with Jesus a priority. Zacchaeus’s openness also included inviting Jesus in, despite his sinfulness. He was willing to make up for his sin and change everything once he found the Lord. We might ask ourselves today what we need to change, and how willing we are to invite Jesus into our lives, despite our brokenness.
The second thing that stands out for me is what Jesus says to those who chided him for going into a sinner’s house. “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save what was lost.” What wonderful words those are for us to hear. Because we know how lost we have been at times, and how far we have wandered from our Lord. But the Lord seeks us out anyway, because we are too valuable for him to lose.
And all we have to do is to be open to the Lord’s work in our lives, just like Zacchaeus was. What a joy it will be then to hear those same words Jesus said to him: “Today salvation has come to this house.”

Crystal Spiders – Metanoia Review
By El Cuervo
Out of the fertile grounds of North Carolina comes Crystal Spiders, spinning their latest auditory web entitled Metanoia. Metanoia follows two prior full-length albums and a musical tradition of gritty sounds from the American South. It’s steeped in this culture, hinting at a chewy blend of classic metal and the weightier grooves of stoner rock. Does it succeed in harmonizing these elements into a meaty whole?
Metanoia delivers a burly fusion of its heavy metal and stoner rock influences, blending the energetic jauntiness of ’80s heavy metal with the thick guitar tones of ’90s stoner soundscapes. Stoner grooves are the priority, even when paired alongside classic metal acrobatics. First impressions are solid, with the opening passages on “Torche”1 featuring leads that are good and occasionally wander into very good territory. An unexpected, trilling guitar layer around the mid-point contributes to the psych/stoner vibe, and a hearteningly soulful singer caps a track with sturdy bones. The production packages these elements into a pleasingly rustic aesthetic, sounding as if Crystal Spiders recorded live in a room together. It lands somewhere between Royal Thunder and Kyuss, but is executed with a classic metal sensibility.
Despite Metanoia’s sturdy bones, the body they support is sometimes flabby with a plain face. The songwriting suffers from noticeable bloat. With just seven tracks stretching to 44 minutes, the band isn’t afraid of length. But even your first exposure to the album on “Torche” feels a bit too long; its core lead is good, but not good enough to carry nearly six minutes. By the time you reach the almost nine-minute finale (“O.S..”), you might expect something exciting and climactic. Instead, the same core passage loops through the first half, with the song changing but not significantly for the remainder. Likewise, “Time Travel” keeps returning to the core passage in its first half, and I’ve passed my saturation point with it well before the end. After several minutes, it just sounds lethargic. Notwithstanding a handful of notable solos and transitions, the songs generally move slowly and repetitively between passages. Metanoia feels like 20 minutes of ideas stretched into 40 minutes of music.
By comparison, “Ignite” is immediately more urgent and entertaining as it speeds up to a canter with a nifty lead in its first verse. The dramatic flair of this riff is a welcome change and injects some drama that the rest of the record lacks. This song is the exception that proves the rule of bloated songwriting, as I enjoy the shortest track most. Similarly, the back half of “Time Travel” features an instrumental passage that speeds through a spirited lead with a more technical solo. The album proves more entertaining when it progresses past slower and mid-paced tempos. Beyond these satisfying moments, however, I struggle to highlight any other points of note. Music that stands out must overcome endless choice in a world with virtually limitless options available at a listener’s fingertips. Metanoia’s overall quality is such that it’s difficult to muster any more strengths or weaknesses.
I had a ten-day work trip between my first and last listens to Metanoia, so it had plenty of time to passively gestate. But in reality, I nearly forgot that this review was due; it’s just not a memorable or remarkable release, and hadn’t called to me once during that period. Despite the core strengths of the Crystal Spiders’ sound across their guitar leads and lively production, the bloated songs and solid-but-unexciting songwriting prohibit them from truly excelling.

This week’s tools to better leadership
#pioneer #metanoia #affirming
In a period of stretching and discovery it is wise to approach all, whether a person or a problem, with their heart in mind. This in-sight softens edges and strengthens spines by being truly seen.
I’m a Christian. There is no such thing as the “sin of empathy.”
The absolutely, fundamental, essential teaching of Christ is “love your neighbour as yourself.” It is a near impossible standard set by him to guide his followers about how to treat other humans because well, love is it.
We do our best to live our lives in that direction, humbly, failingly, imperfectly. But we do our best.
Anyone preaching the “sin of empathy” needs to turn around. They are heading the wrong way.
Today's Flickr photo with the most hits: Francis turns back from war, transformed inwardly.
The year is 1205. Francis is 23 years old. He enlists in the army of Walter III, Count of Brienne, and leaves Assisi with companions, amidst great panoply and fanfare. As the army moves south, he has a vision from God telling him to turn around and go home.

2. Metanoia
La fede mi ha restituito fiducia, lo vedo nella concretezza del mio modo di pensare (#metànoia e #beliefs, verrebbe da dire). Ho abbandonato il pessimismo, la convinzione che il mondo va a catafascio. E allora il problema del male, su cui l'uomo si interroga da millenni? La creazione, opera di Dio, si muove in statu viae e tende al compimento; inoltre, come dice san Paolo, dove il peccato abbonda, la grazia sovrabbonda (Rm 5,20). Se la scienza è misura, perché nel resto ignorare il limite?
Metanoia, as decided by Carl Jung, is a tremendous internal metamorphosis brought on by crisis.
This feels like a metanoia for me. I’m cracking and being remade. I don’t care what into. Anything but whatever brings this karma. I’ve cracked before. I just don’t want to break. There is Big No energy here.
Magic magic do as you will.
I won’t be broken again. Not like this.
