May today be a day of Celebration!  May we recall all our hopes and aspirations, may we reflect on who we truly are, and who we truly want to become.  May this day be the beginning of great, new enterprises, a liminal moment in intersecting lives.  May we recognize that we stand on the threshold,… read more

From time to time we need to remind ourselves that we are enough.  That we are brave and strong, and have the courage to meet the challenges we face each day.  May we remember this today, as we look outward, and see the obstacles awaiting us; and as we look inward, and recognize the doubt and uncertainty… read more

Behold the morning, fresh and clear.  Breathe it in.  Let it permeate every cell in our bodies.  Know that the morning is us, and we are the morning.  We are caught in the stream of interconnectedness.  Whatever we encounter, wherever we encounter it, we are always simply finding ourselves again.  You and me and everything we know… read more

May this day find us communing with nature.  May we find ourselves not simply enjoying the view, but actually in the picture,  present and connected.  May we notice every nuance, every smell, every tiny epic story that is happening right before our eyes.  May we find our sacred relationship with this interconnected web.  Let us be mindful… read more

How we choose to communicate says much about how we engage with the world.  Defiance, rigid self-righteousness and dismissiveness are less productive and less effective at getting our own needs met than adapting an attitude of compassion, cooperation and gratitude.  Mistake these not, though, as being weak or pliable; quite the opposite, when we engage… read more
