Enjoy the Ride

Enjoy the Ride

we often have the tendency to judge ourselves
the intersection of thought and of doing
entangled with the past or with what others have done
it is time to put the past as last

last in a position where it cannot compete
there is nothing to judge or compare
there is a lightness in knowing we are just beginning
every moment, every day, every year

and seeking to treasure and notice the flow
we are here on board wherever we go
no destination – it always changes
nowhere to hide – enjoy the ride
life’s adventure

Separation from Gratitude

Separation from Gratitude

living in gratitude
can take us to the past
what if we simply express gratitude in the moment felt
and then let go knowing it will last

we can live in the present
the story of now
no longer sequencing
no longer built on or cast from the past

simplified into beingness
a state of constant restart
attuned to our feelings
living from the heart

Jasmine Secrets

Jasmine Secrets

the mysteries of jasmine
have been hidden thru time
its colours, its scent, its diversity
its connection to the divine

adorning the entrances
of sacred temples and more
gifted as bouquets
or spread on the floor

jasmine’s own presence
can be breathed in and stored
inviting our attention
as its beauty is explored
