True power comes not from the words you say, but in how well you listen. The value is in the listening.

Sunrise
As the sun rises, it is not our task to seek what is missing but to marvel in all that is there.
Where you are
Lonely or peaceful…longing or inviting…isolated or surrounded…empty or full?
It’s all in the lens you select.
Burning Embers
The embers of the fire need tending to keep them bright and strong, to share their light, to give off their warmth. They are not intended to be smothered, but to be gently stoked and shared, to be given a safe space to fully express themselves. Nurture those burning embers and know the power and joy of that light within.
Inspired
Do things that inspire you…not things you do because you have to. Do things because they feel right.
Create a space of joy around all that you do and you will no longer need to be motivated or driven.
Do what you do to fulfill you – not to take you to some better place, but to complete you right where you are.
Replace motivation with inspiration and feel true satisfaction in your work.
Our Own Selves
Can I ask “How are you?” for the sake of simply caring?
Can I learn of your pain, your mistakes, your successes, without judging?
Can I know that your different opinions, ideas, and ways of doing things are exquisite because they are you?
Can I trust that all of your decisions are yours, not good or bad, but those necessary to lead you along the path that is you?
Can I resist the urge to selfishly invade your experience just to feel more powerful from the distant shores of my perceptions?
Can I love and respect you enough to allow you to mind your own business?
Can we all just live freely and in peace to exist in the space of our own decisions, to learn and grow in our own unique ways, and just go to work at the task of being what we were made to be…our own selves?
Wisdomful
We say we want our children to be more mindful, but aren’t they already in their minds enough? Why don’t we encourage them instead to be more wisdomful?

Container
No matter what size the container, we all have the same-sized Self. See the light within.
ONE WAY
There isn’t one way…there’s one feeling.
Joyously Moving Forward
Dissolving the idea that work, life, or who I am needs direction, drive, determination, pain or intense commitment. Simply moving along wherever the joy takes me. Knowing that is enough.
Joyously moving forward.
