Knowing the seasons
The first day of a new season in the old Celtic calendar
How do geese know when to fly to the sun? Who tells them the seasons? How do we humans know when it is time to move on?
As with the migrant birds, so surely with us, there is a voice within if only we would listen to it, that tells us certainly when to go forth into the unknown.
Elizabeth Kubler Ross
In our minds
We don’t really hear what people say,
We imagine what they mean
Byron Katie
Sunday Quote: Joyous
We have the good fortune to be born as human beings..

Lightly
Think lightly of yourself
and deeply of the world.
Miyamoto Musashi, 1584 – 1645, Japanese swordsman and philosopher, author of The Book of Five Rings
From the heart
You are what your deep, driving desire is.
As is your desire, so is your intention.
As is your intention, so is your will.
As is your will, so is your deed
As your deed is, so is your destiny,
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, Hindu Scriptures, 7th-6th century BCE.
