“We spend precious hours fearing the inevitable. It would be wise to use that time adoring our families, cherishing our friends and living our lives.”― Maya Angelou
“Rabbit’s clever,” said Pooh thoughtfully.
“Yes,” said Piglet, “Rabbit’s clever.”
“And he has Brain.”
“Yes,” said Piglet, “Rabbit has Brain.”
There was a long silence.
“I suppose,” said Pooh, “that that’s why he never understands anything.”
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh
Rest your mind.
The racing thoughts.
The what ifs, whys, whens, hows.
Sit down, stop, gaze.
Open your heart.
A softening, receiving, giving, ebb and flow.
Turn up your senses.
To colors, fragrance, beauty, clarity, unknowing.
With ease, curiosity and wonder.
Enter this day.
Rapt attention.
May equanimity be yours this day.
And may it spill over into the next.
Living well this day alone.
Grace for this place, this space.
“When we keep choosing between right and wrong. We spend our energy sorting life rather than living it.”― Mark Nepo
