"On the beach, at dawn;
four small stones clearly
hugging each other.
How many kinds of love
might there be in the the world,
and how many formations might they make
And who am I ever
to imagine I could know
such a marvelous business?"

Advent I - the first mild light...
Advent I – the first mild light…
“Advent is the time of promise; it is not yet the time of fulfillment. We are still in the midst of everything and in the logical inexorability and relentlessness of destiny.… Space is still filled with the noise of destruction and annihilation, the shouts of self-assurance and arrogance, the weeping of despair and helplessness. But round about the horizon the eternal realities stand silent in…

Living water
So come to the pond,
Or the river of your imagination,
Or the harbor of your longing,
And put your lips to the world,
And live your life.

That simple
Our fates are tied. We have this strange notion on this planet that our fates are not tied. If it were not so we would not be here together. It’s that simple.

What a relief...
What a relief…
The first noble truth of the Buddha is that when we feel suffering,
it doesn’t mean something is wrong.
What a relief. Finally somebody told the truth. Suffering is a part of life,
and we don’t have to feel it’s happening because we personally made a wrong move.
Pema Chodron, When Things Fall Apart, Heart Advice for Hard Times
Thank you, Karl Duffy

If one wishes suffering not to happen to the people and the earth, it begins with a kind heart.

Once the door is opened
Once the door is opened
Admit that once you have got up
from your chair and opened the door,
once you have walked out into the clear air
toward that edge and taken the path up high
beyond the ordinary you have become
the privileged and the pilgrim,
the one who will tell the story
and the one, coming back
from the mountain
who helped to make it.
Doors — They begin an adventure. They end a long day.
Doors — They…

Monday’s first light…
There is a small opening into the new day,
that closes the moment you begin your plans…

to be content with yourself...
to be content with yourself…
This is a repost… Somehow it got lost on my blog. Peace to all.
“May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you…

...the thing you actually find.
…the thing you actually find.
Never be so focused on what you’re looking for that you overlook the thing you actually find.
October 1! I looked at the calendar with some sense of awe…in 30 days I will celebrate a birthday -my 65th birthday.
Sitting at this threshold I look at where I’ve been and where I am going.
And today, I am 27 days away. I still look at the calendar – so intently, I can’t help but wonder, is this…

Never Give Up
Fragile as a spider’s web
Hanging in space
Between tall grasses,
It is torn again and again.
A passing dog
Or simply the wind can do it.
Several times a day
– gather myself together
And spin it again.
Spiders are patient weavers.
They never give up.
And who knows
What keeps them at it?
Hunger, no doubt,
And hope.

It may be that when we no longer know which way to go we have come to our real journey.
