In breath beginners mind unconditional

This moment.

*********************

When we see these words, we know that we are moving towards the peacefulness that we all crave.

It is often difficult to recognize signs in other languages, and yet, the meaning of the words become clear when we look around and see how people behave.  

We are one.  We can practice equanimity, or awareness, or being quiet, or being still.  It is your choice to  find the signs, the words, the actions that work for you.

A Home With ME

 

The poster says:  

In the space between my fingers between this breathe and the next in the vacant space of my heart I have kept you marked eternally.  You never had to wonder or worry whether or not I will replace you (never)  you will always have a home within me.  —— Unknown

*****************************

When we think of safety, we generally think of “home”.  What does that really mean?  Home can be where we were born, or brought up, or where we feel the happiest such as being at Grandmother’s house.  Or, home can be about the group/tribe that accepts you and wants to help you with all that you do.   It is wonderful to have the feeling of home around you. 

Blessings,

It Is About Zen

The poster says:  Not thinking about anything is zen.  Once you know this, walking, sitting, or lying down, everything you do is zen. —- Bodhidharma

**************************

Life, I think, is about learning to move through each day with Grace and cheerfulness.  It is about learning to not attach to any things or outcomes.  If we can do this, then life is beautiful and everything flows.  

When we try to control outcomes, the lives of those around us, and when we become inflexible, then life becomes difficult because it cannot flow; we will not let it move easily.   Hanging on to people, to possessions, and to belief systems are going to get in the way of the flow.  They become your personal speed bumps on the way to a peaceful life.

Blessings,

Judy
