TODAY
Today I’m flying low and I’m
not saying a word.
I’m letting all the voodoos of ambition sleep.
The world goes on as it must.
the bees in the garden rumbling a little,
the fish leaping, the gnats getting eaten.
And so forth.
But I’m taking the day off.
Quiet as a feather.
I hardly move though really I’m traveling
a terrific distance.
Stillness. One of the doors
into the temple.
~Mary Oliver~
Learning to be still,
to really be still and let life happen –
that stillness becomes radiance.
~Morgan Freeman~
The art of being still – something we must learn. Practice, practice, practice.
The remarkable thing is,
we have a choice everyday regarding
the attitude we will embrace that day.
~Charles R. Swindoll~
Stop every now and then.
Just stop and enjoy.
Take a deep breath.
Relax and take in the abundance of life.
~Unknown~
At some point in life,
the world’s beauty becomes enough.
~Toni Morrison~
Lose yourself in nature
and find peace.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson~
Keep your eyes open to your mercies.
The man who forgets to be thankful
has fallen asleep.
~Robert Louis Stevenson~
All it takes is a short neighborhood walk with my ‘girls’ on a stunning autumn day to open my eyes to my mercies and find peace.
Have a beautiful and peaceful Thursday. Keep your eyes open.
