I’m a big proponent of “busy is a decision.”
You decide what you want to do and the things that are important to you.
And you don’t find the time to do things – you make the time to do things. And if you aren’t doing them because you’re “too busy,” it’s likely not as much of a priority as what you’re actually doing.
Debbie Milman, radio show host and author
When you stop trying to achieve,
you discover what has always been there.

What would it be like
to awaken to a day devoted to gratitude
a day of thankfulness for what was
and yet will be?
Stephen Levine
When you are in darkness, feeling pitiful or alone,
remember you are blessed with a soul
that is more receptive to the Spirit
and closer to love, joy and peace
than you were when life seemed grand.
This is what “blessed are the poor in Spirit”
means.
Meister Eckhart
Violence is done to the soul when we are forced to live at a pace that is not our own, when we are held to standards that are not our own, when we are denied the right to rest in the rhythms of our own being.
Parker Palmer, A Hidden Wholeness
For the new month….
Every moment is a surprise, if we have the eyes to see it.
The more we cultivate awareness,
the more we realize that even the ordinary is extraordinary.
