Peace Offering…
Mother Teresa quote…
“We serve life not because it is broken but because it is holy.” ~ Mother Teresa
Pema Chödrön quote…
“In practicing meditation, we’re not trying to live up to some kind of ideal – quite the opposite. We’re just being with our experience, whatever it is.” ~ Pema Chödrön
we are all friends here…
when i need a reminder
that all of this is sacred
i sit under the night sky
and
watch stars dance
i listen to birds sing
or
children’s laughter
i enjoy a cool breeze on a sunny day
and
get lost in the eyes
of
those whom i love.
we are all friends here
interdependent
floating along in the same river
which
opens into a deep blue sea
of
vast, spacious Love…

thoughts on fidelity…
thoughts on fidelity…
by jaysen waller
…it seems to me, that if you are fortunate enough in this life to have even one person hand you their heart, allowing that vulnerability and choosing you and you in turn have accepted this gift, this offering, then hold it with the utmost care. with awareness, honor this heart laid bare. be of good character, acting with integrity and honesty. and when the relationship has found its conclusion, end it with tenderness and grace as you found it, before moving forward with another. such wounding can be so harmful and trust is incredibly difficult to regain…
…but then again, what do i know? i have yet to experience such a blessing in this life. perhaps the first heart that entwines with mine will find itself run over rather quickly. but if i do such a thing, please form a line and proceed to punch me in the stomach one by one, because i’m pretty sure this is what it feels like to be cheated on…
this is my loneliness…
this is my loneliness
a friend to many
a sage to some
a lover to none
this is my loneliness

the only truth we have…
the only truth we have…
all is empty
waves come and gone
suns risen and set
worlds end
even
as new ones begin
all of what i know
is that i don’t
really
know
whether the stars
are here
or
gone tomorrow
even as if they
are
gone today
and may be
in some
tomorrow
all i really see
are distant memories
and futures
yet to manifest
but i am here
in this moment
in this
breath
so
breathe with me
my love
and
let our hearts beat
this once
together in rhythm
together
in the harmony
of right now
the only truth we have
