BE35: Retro?

Memory can be a handy tool to learn many lessons.
To overcome the challenges of doubt fed to us by
others or ourselves. Some things we simply cannot
control, we can control our own choices and how we
process the treasure that each new day brings.

look back at the past,
glean the harvest of ‘good’ to
share with the future

Good Fortune

Though we all suffer life’s challenges,
it is equally true that almost all of us
are more fortunate than others in some way.

BE33 November 2016 b

BE33: Zoetic

I notice in my car there is a setting that allows one to recirculate the air
already in the car. Great when one gets the first smell of say, skunk or
some odor that isn’t pleasing. Often home air is tended the same way -
to keep out allergens. There is something to be said from being protected
from outside elements... yet then we too can become filled with stale air.
Miss the petrichor, the last autumn rose, or inhaling the first true frosted
winds of change.

remember to breath
the atmosphere and to be
aware of what is

the past helped to shape the sum
of what was; the future waits

draw deeply of the
present so you can gift each
moment with true depth

Breathing
Our breath brings us into the present moment, uniting our body,
which is the sum of our past, with our mind, where we create our future.

BE32 November 2016 b

BE32: course work?

energy, water
thoughts, like the air within us
and around us flow

create your own music with
all that you can reach, evolve

become fluent and
accept peace that is within
your reach; emerge free

©JP/dh

Flow

All things great and small flow and grow
and follow their own destiny.
