A Good Busy

“Your daily life is your temple and your religion. When you enter into it take with you your all.” – Khalil Gibran

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” – Rumi

A walk with friends, two playgrounds, one dog park, the first lawn cutting of the season and a big bouncy ball kind of day. No schedule, nowhere to be but in the present, exploring, climbing, balancing, sliding, swinging and playing. When we let go of the should, must, have to, checklist busy days and enter the play zone, the world widens, deepens and gratitude appears in simple moments.

“Never, ever underestimate the importance of having fun.” – Randy Pausch

Foster playful moments daily to awaken to the present, ease into flow and enjoy the journey.

“With mindfulness, you can establish yourself in the present in order to touch the wonders of life that are available in that moment.” – Thich Nhat Hanh

“Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony.” – Thomas Merton
