"THE GREEDY ONE GATHERED ALL THE CHERRIES,

WHILE THE SIMPLE ONE TASTED

ALL THE CHERRIES IN ONE"

I read this in the book, "The Book of Awkening".  It really speaks to me. It is not how much we have that constitutes enough, but how much I taste the morsel of the moment…….add your thought…..

To Care

At your core you are a spiritual being and cannot be crushed by the outer world

> "YOU MUST MEET THE OUTER WORLD WITH YOUR INNER WORLD OR EXISTENCE WILL CRUSH YOU." —Mark Nepo— in other words when you are bottomed out-don't know what to do or where to turn, go within.

HERE WE ARE STUCK IN TRAFFIC ON A ICE COVERED FREEWAY. THIS IS UNSETTLING AND NOT ACCORDING TO PLAN IN OUR SCHEDULES AND PLANS. PANIC, GIVE IN TO FRUSTRATION, ANGER, BLAMING. BUT, THE TURTH IS NATURE IS CALLING THE SHOTS. IT IS WHAT IT IS. OK, LETS CALM DOWN, PAUSE, BE STILL AND QUIET IN OUR MINDS AND HEART. SLOWING BECOME AWARE THAT THIS IS ALL PART OF THE BIG PICTURE AND EVENTUALLY WE WILL BE LOOKING BACK ON THIS. WHAT IS THE OPPORTUNITY? WHAT IS THE CALL IN ALL THIS "MESS" NOW?  "I have called you by your name; You are Mine. When you pass through the waters(ice and snow or other trouble) I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you; When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall flame scorch you. I am the Lord your God….your Savior." —Isaiah 43:1-3—  NOW THAT I/YOU LOOK AT THINGS THIS WAY I/YOU CAN MAKE IT……
