There is no dress rehearsal, at least as far as I know, for life.

We live it as we are.

What do you find worthy of devoting your life to?

How does it feed your heart and soul, and that of others?

 

Oh wandering mind,

where do you go when I don’t pay attention to you?

When you go off, I like to explore and feel the space left behind….

 

 

I somehow feel that I am going into the last third of my life as a spiritual teenager.

I wonder what it would feel like to be a spiritual “grown-up”…

As I meditate and feel myself rotating around and through the center, I often start to giggle…

And there is nothing…

Vapor!

In meditation:  a wave of stillness…

another oxymoron.

In the darkness, remember there is light, even when it can’t be seen.

Happy Martin Luther King Day!

Long-term habits of thought and feeling get housed in the body’s shape–its muscles and bones, in our face, in our eyes….

Like an old worn out sock, some of these habits, though familiar and “comfortable,” may no longer benefit us and those around us.  Thank them sincerely for carrying you this far.

They served their function, but now no longer.

Yoga and meditation open us to and support this transformation.

It is the most beautiful vision that sees and feels the perfect in the imperfect.

Such is the vision of our compassionate and tender loving heart!

Sometimes we need to search hard for the light in some situations!

 

 

 

The heart is spacious like a room with no walls or ceiling or floor.

I had a non-crisis crisis last night,

and another just ended a minute ago….

Thank God for meditation and yoga!!  They definitely help keep things a bit more in perspective!
