Autumn


Inside of us, there's a continual autumn. Our leaves fall and are blown out over the water. 
                          Rumi

Every final word in an argument leaves us with the next step in the relationship, the new beginning.  

Loving as well as hating words travel far and wide.

Harvest Time



Everything has a time.

A time to sow thoughts for new dreams.
A time to nurture what you sowed.
A time for patience and faith when all is still at work in the Invisible.

And then the circle becomes complete -- in the Harvest Time.

Food For Thought

 
 
If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?
Rumi
 
 
All too often we think that everything in our world should be without friction and unhappiness, once we begin a spiritual journey.  Yet the opposite begins to happen.  What is that about?
 
The silversmith sits before the fire and never takes his eyes off the metal he holds in the hot flame.  He is waiting to see his image.  Once that happens, he knows the transformation is complete.

Life's Illusions

The path that leads to crystal ball clarity also leads to your freedom from the illusion of life.

Once you continually practice love, all the world will mirror back the Truth of Who and What you truly are -- pure Spirit.

Lag Time





Like birds in flight, once your thoughts and words are lifted into the Universe, it's only a matter of time before they land.

Choose them wisely.

When Rocks Speak

Nature has been talking to us for millions of years although many have never heard Her Voice.

She has been saying:

You are a part of me and I hold secrets from your history beneath me and within my crevices.

Take what you need from me and leave the rest for others  -- share, rather than compete.

                                                         We are all One.

The Ripple Effect

Whatever you start, whether it's an argument, an apology, a new job, relationship, etc. you set things in motion of a similar nature. 

Are you attacking or loving during your day? 

Are you thinking of what you're against (certain people, conditions, etc.) or what you're for (harmony, peace for everyone.)  A ripple effect is being put into motion.  In business and friendships, it's called networking.

Feel free to share your experience of The Ripple Effect.

Half Full or Half Empty?

"There is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so." Shakespeare.

An analyst would say the glass is both half full and half empty in mathematical terms:
1/2 x F (full) = 1/2 x E (empty)
Do the math -- multiply both sides by 2
F  =  E

The insomniac will be up all night worrying over evaporation.

An enlightened person will say, "There is no glass."

Here's an idea:

Maybe it's always Just Enough!  "...thinking makes it so."
