the Light…

“Close your eyes. Feel it. The light…it’s always been there. It will guide you.”

~

Maz Kanata

stop. sit. breathe. let go. allow.

(rinse and repeat)

when renewed, get back up and do generous, kind, compassionate work to benefit a world that is suffering.

peace…

Is peace something you get,

or is peace something you are?

If you can get it, you can lose it.

If you are it, it is never gone.

~

Scott Shaw

If my mind doesn’t go out

to disturb the noise,

the noise won’t disturb me.

Ajahn Chah

Be here now. Peace is now. Let go of control and breathe…

Whether we remain the ash

or become the phoenix

is up to us.

#interdependence

You can survive on your own; you can grow strong on your own; you can prevail on your own; but you cannot become human on your own.
