Where peace and real love prevail there is equity, no more poverty or cause for crime or conflict between nations. Military budgets have been turned into supporting civilian peace corps working to halt climate change and environmental destruction. Education and enriching the mind is a lifelong goal. People work on self improvement and enlightenment.

Greetings all from South Carolina on the coast were at 7 AM it’s 81° and really humid. Fortunately the sky is overcast so when we go out for a walk this morning it won’t be too terribly hard. I always enjoy this time of day and I’m so grateful for everything I have.

I can make breakfast or dinner.

In solitude I can start emptying my mind and come into a sense of peace and deeper relaxation.

Ilove the quote this morning.

The human soul doesn’t want to be advised or fixed or saved. It simply wants to be witnessed — to be seen, heard and companioned exactly as it is.
PARKER PALMER

I get to see the world and my own views from another perspective, if I am open minded enough to do so.

It’s not too late to join the zoom call tomorrow with Palm, Shan, Mica, Drew, Anna and myself. Just email me and I’ll send the link. [email protected]

Not really new, but a further affirmation of how, in the process of simply observing mental contents, the mind begins to empty out. Then whatever unwanted feelings or thoughts were present fadeaway and peace returns.

Challenges have taught me not to fight with a life but to go with the flow. Letting go has been a major lesson of the lower part of my life. It’s not giving up or even giving in. It’s a radical new understanding that so many things in our lives are not as important as we once thought.

We had a summer home in southern New Hampshire when I was small and I was enchanted by nature and being outdoors. We would hike the surrounding hills, swim and spear frogs in our pond. Nature became a place of refuge, recreation, and outlet for curiosity. As a kid I never reflected much I want nature meant to me, but it held me in a way which is stayed with me through adulthood.

Drew, He may be referring to the state of the world and humanity as a whole who are in industrial countries living in a way that’s destroying the planet.

Cheryle, this is the first I’ve heard of it.

Welcome to tjis space Suzerainty. Gods grace is with you and the friendship of Jesus will continue to be a source of confort and joy.🙏🏼❤️

Welcome back Ose.

Manali, May you find a deepening peace in your health situation. My prayers are with you. 🙏🏼❤️

This trip should be wonderful. May peace and many blessings go with you.

I agree. Often my mind goes blank with these questions.

Holly, thanks for bringing up climate change. I too do not feel optimistic and am discouraged by c,I ate denial and apathy. My only point of hope is that there is a larger wisdom at work. If humanity reduces its numbers through the climate crisis, nature may rebound.

Peace be with you.🙏🏼💕

Well said.
