Leave a comment

Here is your life. You might never have been, but you are because the party wouldn’t have been complete without you. Here is the world. Beautiful and terrible things will happen. Don’t be afraid. I am with you. Nothing can ever separate us. It’s for you I created the universe. I love you. There’s only one catch. Like any other gift, the gift of grace can be yours only if you’ll reach out and take it. Maybe being able to reach out and take it is a gift too. – Frederick Buechner

the gift of grace

We’re divine children. We live in God’s house. We’re always safe. We matter. We can live unafraid if we so choose. We have siblings. We have a lot of loving to do.

If you try to hang on to your life you will lose it. – Jesus of Nazareth

let god

We live selfish lives. And therefore are destined to suffer endlessly. To have eternal life, we must learn to collaborate with and be guided by Life. Life = God = The Universe = The Divine. There’s a divine plan for everything and everybody. We in our selfish little ways can never know what’s good for us let alone know what’s good for the entire world. So we must stop trying to hang-on to life, we must learn to let go and as they say ‘Let God’…

Why Center Ourselves?

Leave a comment

Anywhere is the center of the world. – Black Elk

centering

To find our way, to know ourselves, to live with purpose and to be genuinely fulfilled we must be centered on ourselves. Not in a selfish, egoistic way, no. But in a fully-present, mindful and being-fullness way. And then we’ll find that we’re indeed the center of the world and that we have nowhere to go and nothing really left to do. All destinations come to us and whatever needs to be done, somehow gets done. Life flows. Life is good and all is well.

How To Make Lasting Relationships…

Learn to be quiet enough to hear the sound of the genuine within yourself so that you can hear it in the others. – Marian Wright Edelman

true listening

True listening happens when we operate from our deep, genuine center, from what we actually are. We can come in touch with that center through quietude. And thanks to this kind of listening and direct contact with the ‘other’ nothing but true relationships are built.
