“I come to my solitary woodland walk as the homesick go home.” 

 

I've photographed this path in every season and light but I felt privileged beyond measure to stand here on a Spring morning, young leaves glowing, mist weaving around each bough, and the birds heralding the new day.

You may not be able to control your initial reaction, 

 

but you can be intentional about not feeding the fire. 

 

Observing it without becoming it

 

 actually helps the fire of tension 

 

to burn away more quickly.

 There is no such thing 

as you're too busy to practice self-inquiry. 

This should come first in your life, 

because this is your life. 

Everything else is secondary.

 CONFUCIUS

 

The view from Glastonbury Tor this morning at sunrise.

 

 

 A mind

that has understood the whole movement of thought

 becomes extraordinarily quiet,

 absolutely silent.

 That silence is the beginning of the new.

-J Krishnamurti-

 

 

Je kan soms een heel eind vooruitkomen 

 

door stil te zitten...

meet experience

 without resistance 

 

 

 

 Try not to resist the changes which come your way.

 Instead let life live through you. 

And do not worry that your life is turning upside down. 

How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to come? 

- Shams Tabrizi -

 

You do not give your soul

 to those who are not willing to give theirs. 

Those who do not give gifts do not appreciate gifts.

 Love is a dialogue, not a monologue.

- Oriana Fallaci -

 Tant que nous sommes parmi les hommes,

 pratiquons l’humanité.

- Sénèque -

 

 Shaming yourself

 for your past 

is the quickest way 

to stay stuck there.

- Dr. Nicole LePera -

 

 

 

 The only way you will ever awaken is through the silence, not through analysis of facts. 

Not by sorting out good and bad but through simple silence, letting go. 

Letting go of all thoughts, all the hurts, all the dogmas and concepts.

 Letting go of these things daily. 

- Robert Adams -

 

 

Few people heard an apology from a parent. 

 

This is why we struggle with accountability. 

 

We view doing something hurtful and apologizing as a weakness.

 

 Rather than an opportunity to connect. 

 

Instead, we learned to go on as if nothing happened.

 

- Dr Nicole LePera -

 

 

Before you judge someone

be sure 

you yourself are perfect 

 

 

 

 Be careful what you say 

to yourself about yourself. 

 YOU are the narrator

 of your own life story. 

 Don’t beat yourself up.

 Don’t pull yourself down.
