spinning
i breathe
sweet ease
carrying me
wave over wave
and under
rising to
new breath
Splendor.

Each day is a canvas. We can continue a painting already started, lay the groundwork for a formula we know that works, or we can try something never before attempted in this lifetime. There is a time for all things. To embody beauty and ease, to dance your part in this co-creation - why we are all here - requires discipline. It requires knowing yourself, and doing whatever it takes for you to be able to surrender to the moment, each moment, to be in it regardless of what is going on within and around you. I am traveling along British Columbia’s west coast, and like the ocean I am drawn to, and love so well, I rise and I fall. Here at home I am finding it more difficult than any place I have been in Asia or Europe to remain in my center, to remember at all times who I am. Why? Is it because it is the land where I was born, and so I relax a little more, and forget myself? Or am I being pulled deeper than ever before to explore hidden places in my heart and psyche? I think it is both. Like always, it is a time of opening the heart, of remembering. It is the height of summer and the fire burns brightest at this time. Let it clear any fears you have, let it carry you to the heights you you dream of. It is time to live as brightly as you can, with courage and infinite love, knowing you are light and sharing it.
