The Hands of Time
Face it, pretty much all of us look, if not worse for wear, at least changed by the elements that have touched us over the years. Those changes can be marks of distinction rather than losses of beauty, but they come to us all.
What about your appearance causes you wonder?
Present Wonder
“With mindfulness, you can establish yourself in the present in order to touch the wonders of life that are available in that moment.”
—Thich Nhat Hanh
Where do you touch wonder right here, right now?
Up Close and Personal
An ordinary grasshopper looks like an armored alien if you get close enough. With a magnifying glass your own hand turns into a topography of rivers and tributaries. Whole worlds of wonder exist that we never see because we never look closely enough.
What tiny thing has awakened your sense of wonder?
On Fire
Maybe you know the feeling: riveted, engaged, enthralled, passionate. An idea or a plan or an insight catches us and we are headed off after whatever it is that has set our mind or heart or soul on fire.
What has caught flame for you?
