It’s a good day. Yes, life is weird, but it’s good. You won’t always be able to do what you want. It’s been one of the hardest things I’ve had to learn.

500 WORDS, DAY 65: Appreciating Uncertainty
I think it would do us all a lot of good to embrace the uncertainty of life, to have an open and inviting attitude towards change, even when we know if could be uncomfortable or even totally dreadful.

1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 74: “The Trouble Is You Think You Have Time.”
Jack Kornfield said that "the trouble is you think you have time.” We all think we have enough time.

We are compelled to rise above all kinds of petty nonsense and conflict, preferring inner peace and healing for all people instead. … Continue reading A Higher Calling to Live According to the Spirit.
The Silence within the Self.
"In silence, when there are no words, no language, nobody else present, you are getting in tune with existence." ~ Osho (1931-1990) Often times silence speaks louder than a thousand words.
