often i seek a reprieve from the rigors of the day and remove myself to a quiet place where i can relax and meditate……………….the mantra that i use as a bridge to”no mind ” is quite simple, ”Lord show me the peace i seek in You”………………

my awareness allows me to hear the sounds that are missed in the hustle and bustle of life………….the wind whispering through an open window…………the sounds from the movement of a tree, birds…….many birds……rain against the roof……etc…..

meditation for me doesn’t separate me from this world, rather the world surrounds me and i am immersed in it……..the doings of the day often tend to camouflage the wonder around me and i must consciously bring myself back into the fold……..animals on the fringe of the pack are the easy prey for predators…………

the purpose of planned mindfulness is not to divide but to enhance……………my journey………and my path will coincide with others of a like mind and we will trudge the road of happy destiny………

the sounds of silence are the gaps between the pangs of the Earth as it delivers and breathes new life into the world each second and the groans of termination of a brief encounter on this plane………

silence…………..is rare………..it’s goal is mindfulness
