Acceptance

Dear People,

Please stop complaining about the weather and the seasons.

There is no one season ‘better’ than the other….

…..or easier…

….or out of synch with the turning of time and the flow of life.
Each season and each change of weather comes at exactly the right time, on exactly the right day.

Try not to be displeased about the temperature or the clouds or whatever needs to fall from the sky or blanket the ground.

There are systems working that do not consider your needs or wants at very moment.
Whatever happens is happening out of necessity.

Learn to love and appreciate all that happens.
It is perfectly designed in the Perfect Design.

Love,
Your Earth

nature’s pace

Adopt the pace of Nature
Her secret is patience.

Centuries of summers

“…the big resiny roots and knots of the dwarf pine could neither be beaten out nor blown away, and the flames, now rushing up in long lances, now flattened and twisted on the rocky ground, roared as if trying to tell the storm stories of the trees they belonged to, as the light given out was telling the story of the sunshine they had gathered in centuries of summers.” -John Muir

Blue Ridge Morning

Me. Today. Tomorrow. Eternity.

Your Day

Today is your day, your mountain is waiting, so get on your way. -Dr.Seuss

Calm

Earth, ourselves, breathe and awaken, leaves are stirring, all things moving, new day coming, life renewing. -Pawnee Prayer

God’s Eye-View

What if the interests of the self were expanded to … a God’s eye view of the human scene … accepting failure as being as natural an occurrence as success in the stupendous human drama… as little cause for worry and concern as having to play the role of a loser in a summer theater performance.
—Huston Smith
