There was never a way to get someplace else without taking the steps between here and there. And when we realize that each step prepares us to take the next step, we can celebrate each step of the journey. … More
Dear Friends … Do you keep a sabbath?
Twenty years ago, with no religious affiliation, I declared Sunday to be my “sabbath.” I wanted to breathe, to be still, to listen, to refuel, to gather the at-risk fragments of me. I wanted to let solitude center me so I could try my wings again … and give them a fair chance.
Today, we are part of a global society that needs a “sabbath.” We’ve known this. But, apparently, we needed a BIG nudge, a wave that would start somewhere and move to alert everybody, and remind us that we all share the same earth. The corona virus was that nudge. And now we’re trying our wings again. We talked about how we’d apply what we learned.
How are we doing? How are you doing? We get to choose again, and again. Love or Fear.
Let’s impose our own sabbath as needed, to renew our compassion, our wisdom, our strength, our ingenuity, our faith, our discernment, and our courage to act on the truth.
The quest, however epic, is ours. We are intended to be the keeper of the sabbath.
In love,… More
Shared Space, Shared Happiness
When you’re caught up in the busyness or routine of everyday life, you might not think to give each other a massage, discover the stars together, or share your latest insight … unless you’re prompted by props. A little planning can ensure that you have ready space to engage, nurture, and affirm each other.
Here’s how it works. Think about the different aspects of you:
Behavioral — what do you like to do? Make sure your space makes it easy for you to smile, play Scrabble, sit in the garden, dance to old songs, bake brownies, or whatever. And don’t forget the props. Use solar lights in the garden that beckon you into the night, keep your favorite song at the touch of a button on the dinner table. Find repose in tradition, but don’t limit yourself to old standbys. Try out new interests — sing, paint, jog, or build something together.
Emotional — share what you’re feeling about you, your relationship, and life. The deeper the sharing, the deeper the connection. Set up a warm, comfy spot for just the two of you to talk. Make sure you’re facing each other and close enough to touch. You might use an art glass bowl or journal as a reminder to write love notes to each other.… More
Ours to live …
The dream is ours to live when we let go of what we live instead. I love this truth more than I can say. And with every day, it becomes more real to me.… More
