Harmony

When we all come together…

everything seems to come together.

That doesn’t mean we all have to be the same, but we all hear and see each other as the valuable contributions that complete our circle.

How to Feel Good

Never stop believing in the goodness of others.

Part of Me

part of me - clouds

The pain weighs so heavy on my body,

Pressing deep into my chest,

Down into my bones,

Constricting every drop of my being.

 

Yet, the breath still flows

Light and free.

There is courage, hope, relief

As I recall that the pain is just a part of me.

 

No matter how sad, or mad, or defeated I want to feel,

The pain can never be bigger than me

Because the pain is just a part of me.

The Verge

verge

I am on the verge,

the verge of wondrous things or perhaps tremendous calamity.

It really makes no difference.  The precipice is the same, the grander just the same.

There is beauty in it all,

Grace in it all,

Peace in it all,

Because all is love.

All is love.

Response-Able

I am whole.

I am complete.

I am not waiting for anything.

I am aware of all that is going on inside and all around me.

There is choice at the base of my every action.

I am powerful and free.

I am responsible.

I am response-ABLE.

Rivers

UtahEmotions flow through me like water, gaining strength as they course through tight spaces and beautifully still as they spread out in a pool in my heart.

Caringly and softly I tend all the banks of the rivers, making room for these waters to flow.

When the rivers run smoothly, without blocks or dams, I am generous in attitude and actions.

Even when the water appears dark and unclear, as long as I pay it attention the flow is steady and calm as emotions fill and empty my heart.

Coeur…age

Think with your heart. Have faith in your instincts. Place yourself in unfamiliar positions and you just might find you are more comfortable and happier than you ever imagined you could be.

The Fortress

I do not need high walls, thick armies, or heavy artillery to protect me.

I need just listen to the quiet, gentle voice within to know the path to victory.

My greatest strength is my inner knowing.

Soft ripples

A rhythmic flow of thoughts, sensations and movement ripple along the surface.

There is a stillness in that rhythm, a fluid sense of presence, direction, clarity and completeness.

There is no pressing onward, no need for more. In the stillness, I am the me that I am to be.

So why do I seek waves and torrents when the stillness is the essence of my being?
