Awareness of the pleasantness of the moment makes for a day of here-spent hours. Let's be the peace we’re wishing for, the change we all need. As thoughts whizz through our thinker, let's think world peace.
Christmas is this week. God bless us, every one. Merry Christmas from my home to yours. xoxo
Take my current circumstances for example. Up until a few days ago, people loved me; today I feel that I’m their target. Up until a few days ago, I felt I was so-so, not bad -- an okay Writer. Today I feel like I’m a fraud, a failure. ... I was feeling rotten therefore I saw things muddled through my already muddled lenses. I was a stinking dead fish.
Then I came to Japan. And I collapsed. Exhausted. I became undone only to find a wellspring of new energy that slowly seeped into me. Slowly, I started to deflate. I heard birds chirping, cicadas singing their joyful songs, people conversing and laughing softly and life for me turned into a slow waltz. It can happen to you too. Promise.
