Rough River Draft

I was sitting by "my" river today...started thinking about freedom of spirit and what keeps us from being free..so this is a rough draft of getting to liberation of spirit.

Wake up—Be aware
Be discerning.
Let go of control (of the outcome you want, of being perfect, of
wanting someone to be a certain way, of things that are out
of your control. Stop anticipating that it will have to look
like you want it to.)
Stop judging…yourself and others. See judgment thoughts flitting away.
Be still…
Just be…you. Let go of the false self.
Be Free

The Beach

Went to the beach at Bainbridge Island this weekend with Kim. So relaxing. Beautiful. God came and sat with me on the beach and told me so many wonderful truths. It was great just to BE. I found many heart and cross rocks. They're what I collect.

I received some glorious spring flowers from Kimberly and Danielle. I had fun trying to capture their vivid beauty. Enjoy!

Heard Tony Campolo this Sabbath. WOW. He told us to risk bigger to love more. If we are willing to take risks even in the little things, the world will change. And we will feel the exhilaration and joy of the risk. So this week, I want to take one big risk towards loving well..deeper..with meaning. Let's GO!

Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.

Thinking....

If you were to spend 15 minutes a day just "thinking" as a way to make you emotionally stronger, what would you concentrate your thoughts on?
