forgiveness


When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, And his suffering is spilling over.  He does not need punishment; he needs help.  That is the message he is sending. 
~ Thich Nhat Hahn

I scooped this from the wise Molly Lannon Kenny's monthly wisdom.  

I received an unexpected apology today.  

Sometimes it's hard to find the gratitude for those gifts.

Forgiveness
is part of my continual process and journey.
is part of allowing others their process and to continue on their journey.
is part of keeping the energy in continual flow.

the universe has quite the sense of humor

the world is no longer a romantic place.  some of its people are, however.  and therein lies the promise.  don’t let the world win, ally mcbeal.
-john cage.

if ally mcbeal were still on the air, she would be going to yoga.





waves

the wave does not need to die to become water.  she is already water.

a young gentleman died in the snow this last week.

my heart goes out to his family and community.

my gratitude goes out to all those who commit themselves tirelessly, again and again, to search and rescue.

alex, may you rest in peace.  i didn't know you, but hope the snow was epic.



this weekend's snow felt like what I imagine surfing to feel like.
riding a wave.
floating effortlessly.

Chromosomal Grab-Bag

"the observation of confusion is insight...the intelligence that binds us together is wisdom"


small town life is funny.




like, for example, when you spend the better part of your work day talking smack about one of a total of 3 local customers and then said customer walks into your evening yoga class. and you spend the better part of your yoga class feeling mildly guilty...


is that, what's it called?
karma?



i don't seem to tire of this band lately
