Learning to Appreciate the Finer Things.

I was asked the other day, “What is the right way to meditate?”

And though, there are many schools of thought on just this very topic – and, probably many more hundreds of pages written – I’ve always gravitated towards a far less complicated approach;

That is to just simply be.

Try not to litter this path with the expectations and formalities of what must be.  Remember, we need not begin as ‘experts’ on a journey that is intended to awaken.

Instead, why not learn to sit a while, relax…and simply breathe?

The ‘right way’ will be revealed to you – let the stillness speak. And, open your heart to all those things which have been kept hidden from your ‘view’.

My darlings, it’s high time we learned to appreciate these finer ‘textures’ of our being.

Now, there’s a little food for thought on this, as of yet, still sleepy morning.

Be gentle with your delicate souls, my dears ~ and let the light that is you shine through this world.

And, for all those beautiful parents out there, remember:

It’s never too early to start our little one’s on their journey.

In peace, love…and equanimity,

Much love to you, my dearest friends.
