The trees dropping leaves. The earth getting ready to settle down for the long winter. The chilly weather and snuggling under the covers at night for warmth and comfort. Drinking my hot coffee every morning , saying my morning prayers and greeting the day. Working on letting go of yesterday’s issues , and petting my dog Callie. Enjoying the silence.. This is my morning ritual. I enter quietly into the day. 1 Reply Rishu Gupta1 year agoRishu Guptathe 750 words site to write that 750 words… and this gratitude site to write my positive thoughts 1 Reply Malag1 year agoMalagA story of adversity, being dealt a bad hand, and, despite that, getting up and keeping going; the strength and courage to be able to do that. 2 Reply JoeytheHoff1 year agoJoeytheHoffBoth and old friend (breathing new life into passion and the future) and a new friend (reminding me to pay forward the debt owed to those that have helped me heal old wounds). 1 Reply Ann1 year agoAnnThis community, filled with so much meaningful messages, inspires me. 7 Reply Ose1 year agoOseThis morning we shared quite intimate and personal experiences we had the opportunity to go through during this weekend in a group encounter.

How she makes the kite dive and spin, how she walks up and down to make the kite do tricks is just remarkable. I love that. that inspires me to trust the wind, the wind will lift us we just have to let go! 7 Reply Mica1 year agoMicaToday’s quote – There is in you something that waits and listens for the sound of the genuine in yourself.

The energy to cultivate a mind that is calm and compassionate as well as having the enthusiasm to do so is joyous. I’m grateful for having this precious opportunity of a human life to cultivate a mind of love and truth. I pray that we all do our best to weed out disillusionment and grow more of what we want to see like ethical conduct and compassion- true compassion- nonviolence . Peace and love is inspiration.
