To let go. To not need to voice my opinion and just listen without judgment. Write poetry. To love and care for myself as I would a best friend.

I do.

By meditating on sending love to me neighbors. They have been very aggressive and hurtful to me. I am reflecting on the fact that they are doing the best they can perhaps given where they are in life. And on myself knowing that I am also doing the best that I can. We are all one and I need to work on what it is that I am doing to manifest this, even if unconsciously.

To look deeply into myself and confront old demons. Ready today for spiritual surfing: Read the waves, see the obstacles and spot check the flow of life as if surfing in an ocean. Rise above the conditions. Get back up and flow with the current.

That we are all one. It helped me to redefine strength and to understand the timeline of life as a relative continuum.

Thank you Eric for your beautiful words, mind and heart.

Attachment to any person, place or thing. Along with the stories I make up about them.

So many places in the world. But I am nestled in a most amazing and beautiful mountain community. Most mornings and evening but especially when the red skies roll in. And when I am really blessed, after a rain a beautiful rainbow hovers over my home. It makes me feel a childlike awe…

My heart is yearning for a peaceful existence for all, and may something good come from this global wake up call. And may I forgive, not judge and develop a deep love of myself. My heart is especially yearning for a joyful path for my daugher and husband.

In the laughs of friends, in the hugs from family, with the smiles of strangers in far off lands; in Chile, in small towns in Italy, in Temples in Thailand, with farm owners in Vietnam, schoolmates in Italy, at my office, in the mountains,. Meditation retreats various parts of the world. Home is where the heart is,

White light (sunlight, fluorescent light) contains all of the colors of the visible spectrum.
Therefore, may the visible spectrum of the white light radiate love and healing around the world.

Being centered and holding no fear. I honor that by reaching out to others, acknowledging their feelings and sharing an example of something positive that various people are doing in the world right now. And by of course, by being present myself to A Grateful Day.

A client of mine who wrote a very harsh e-mail to my daughter who works for me. She was trying to reassure him about world markets, COVID-19 will not kill all of us, etc. I need to understand that he is just afraid and needs reassurance. He is in pain and I will be in touch with him today. Empathy and kindness are in order.

Can one let go of loneliness, I would like to sure try.

Well this is a very timely and interesting question. There are so many behaviors and judgments that I could let go of. Thus to my mantra. for this year. Let go in 20. However, Loving myself just that way I am is what I want to practice today. Let go of the past and embrace a me that is good enough, not perfect but good enough…. Thanks for this reminder….

Eric, I thank you for writing this. I am reflecting on the mastery of your self-knowledge and spiritual insight. It is both enriching and humbling. The eloquence of your writing will be the basis of hope and reflection for me today. I will indeed read your book. You are an amazing soul. Thank you again for sharing some of your life with us..

By not attaching to that which I have no control over;. person, place or things. And by living in present, joyful and anew,.

By listening and acknowledging the pain. Or simply by greeting every person I meet with a soft look in the eyes and a nod to recognize we are all one. And we all suffer at some times in our lives. Honor were that person is physically and spiritually without perpetuating the suffering.

Amor,
Powerful and thoughtful. Thank you. The real challenge for me is how to arrive at the point of the question and remain non-attached to person, place or thing? We are social beings. as a dimension of this level of existence. Would like your thoughts on this one. Thanks

That is beautiful.
