    Picking up Trash

    I used to pick up trash on the sidewalks as a spiritual practice. How does one do it without anger, without judgments?

    Relief

    We all seek relief of some kind. My moments of self-care in a day get de-prioritized as I am distracted from one thing to another.

    The Question

    What if the world were constructed in such a way that a person would come face-to-face with a question so profound that it wakes them up?

    Inner Storms

    I've talked about my commitment to serenity. I make it sound so simple. Words are easy to say. But how to truly live by them?

    I am Present

    My body is a feedback system. I tune in every morning and get today’s forecast. Am I in my body? I feel my body sensations.

    Blessing my Doubts

    I’ve been scared away by life again. Two steps forward, one step back. Why does my humanness have to interfere with my happiness?

    Contemplating the First Three Valleys of Attar

    I’ve been tested. I've done really hard things. I have also faced moral challenges, some of which I've failed. What wisdom have I found?

    Anticipation, Expectation, Expectancy, Presence

    Expectations take me out of the moment and places me smack dab in the middle of stress. Mindfulness means staying aware. I choose awareness.

    You Matter

    I was more of a black and white thinker years ago maneuvering through the world judging good/bad, safe/unsafe, fun/not fun. I see hues now.

    Rolling Rocks

    I used to be a grudge holder. If someone hurt me, I would forever remember who they were and what they did. Then I learned something.

    Food is Medicine

    I have used food all my life to hide my pain. Then I faced my food issues as a spiritual practice.

    Namaste

    As I practice living every day, I surrender my pessimism and remember there's a learning in every experience no matter how difficult or good
