Hot Sauce1 year agoHot SauceI imagine myself as part of a spiritually aware community of people who are committed to social justice and inner transformation. I imagine myself being committed to relationship with those who join in this work and to be a friend to those who need liberation from what keeps them from their highest potential. This will take a lot of inner work and reflection, but I believe that with practice, I can begin to live a life of justice and wisdom in community with others. 3 Reply Sarah1 year agoSarahBeautiful responses. I too want peace and compassion. To continue to learn how to cultivate happiness from inside – not to be so distracted by externals. 2 Reply Jenna F1 year agoJenna FI aspire to be non-judgemental and accepting of myself and others for who we truly are. To have my cup overflow with love so that it spills over onto the rest of the world is my greatest hope for this lifetime. 3 Reply Linda1 year agoLindaPeace is my goal. 5 Reply Javier Visionquest1 year agoJavier VisionquestIs having my body free of this disgusting disease too much to ask, at this point, or is it enough to heal the life where diabetes has made it presence known? Nine times out of ten, chronic illness points back to a broken relationship and it is exactly that which interrupts my ability to integrate the sweetness of my life. 3 Reply Mica1 year agoMicaAh, my worldly goals – to be better at doing and communicating my work on the possible origin of life between sheets of mica 2 Reply Journey1 year agoJourneyMy aspiration is to do something for myself today, that my future self will be thankful for. Investing in myself today, by eating better, being a better person, being less judgmental, ,being more patient, being more loving, being more caring. My aspiration is to do this everyday and my future self will benefit from this change. It is very hard and nearly impossible though. 2 Reply Present Moment1 year agoPresent MomentI wish to be old enough to give rather than seek love and young enough to remember that is where I began. 4 Reply Melissa1 year agoMelissaI aspire to be a better me tomorrow, then I am today. In addition, I hope to find balance, love, and inspiration in my every day. 2 Reply Tom1 year agoTomMy greatest hope and aspiration is to be peaceful with this life and peaceful in the world. I am working through some situations that are bringing up fear, doubt, and are accompanied by my old friend the Inner Critic. I have the specific hope and aspiration to teach mindfulness based programs in my community. I want to be peaceful and compassionate toward myself so that I may offer these same attitudes to those I connect with in these endeavors. 6 Reply Vicki1 year agoVickiMy greatest hope is for my Family, Friends and Myself to find Love, Be Happy, Be Healthy and find peace and purity in everyway. To be able to find strength in whatever life throws at them and to always remember that without darkness you wouldn’t be able to see the stars. 5 Reply Tom1 year agoTomHi Vicki, thanks for your reminder about the relationship between the darkness and seeing the stars. This was helpful to see this today. 3 Reply Michele1 year agoMicheleHaving just returned from a nice family vacation, all I want in this life is to love my family, be at peace, look forward to more vacations and hope to find love again. 6 Reply Pilgrim1 year agoPilgrimMy hope is to find ways to be more hopeful, less cynical. 7 Reply 1 year agoDear Pilgrim, you always bring hope to others! I often think I can’t give calm, peace, strength, because I believe I don’t have any of these qualities. Many people tell me that I bring them calm, they feel more confident after sharing something with me, so … what is this dear Pellegrino? I don’t have an answer …. Are other fellows truthful mirrors? Or do we not love ourselves enough? 2 Reply Pilgrim1 year agoPilgrimDear Anna, that is a very good question. Perhaps we are invited to offer to ourselves that which we so readily and gladly offer to others? Patience, kindness, and indeed hope? We walk together dear friend. 2 Reply Debra1 year agoDebraDearest Pilgrim, I have always felt your “sharing” to be full of hope and love. Blessings to you. Debra 3 Reply Pilgrim1 year agoPilgrimThank you for your kindness, dear Debra, for your words and blessings. 0 Reply Tom1 year agoTomHi Pilgrim, often I find myself pulled toward a feeling of cynicism too. You are not alone in your search for hope. I believe hope is within and with practice it can be be revealed. Thanks for you honest comment. 3 Reply Pilgrim1 year agoPilgrimThank you, Tom. The human family is a gift, bringing kindness and support here in this place. 0 Reply GCharlotte1 year agoGCharlotteMy greatest hopes and aspirations are I would like to remain stable so I may serve God being dear to my family making friends and being a role model for humanity. 4 Reply Sarah1 year agoSarahI aspire to be more God centered and less self centered. This is where blessings abound. 8 Reply Kevin1 year agoKevinI am content to wake up in the morning and live each day as they come. 7 Reply Antoinette1 year agoAntoinetteI’m not a human doing but a human being. It’s not about what we do but how we do it. My aspirations are to be core peace-radiate loving kindness and compassion for myself and all sentient beings. Sending out joyful love to you all. 6 Reply Wiltrud1 year agoWiltrudAntoinette, so simple though not always easy and so true.
