    Resting in Awareness

    Let me just be like that little rock that sits so elegantly and confidently on the banks of the lake. Not fighting or resisting her experience, but letting it all happen just as it is. This is rest. This is true peace.

    Joy In the Being

    How often we have to fight for peace...but when we do, we find it. My peace was here in the splashing and giggles and wet floor. I wanted it to last forever.

    Fighting For Peace

    Oh how our minds, when left on their own, strive to control, to plan, to ruminate, to live anywhere but the present. Going to beautiful places will not do anything for us unless we change the landscape of our minds in midst of it all.
