Be—don’t try to become.

Osho

New Year’s Resolution?

The world’s shallowness, facades, and bandwagons have been plaguing me this year. Integrity, sincerity, craftsmanship, and appreciation for “real” are fast disappearing. I will continue my dedication to being authentic, sincere, and true to my own beliefs, my own work, my own interactions with others. No “influencer,” no political circus, or relentless barrage of advertisers can tell me what I need or how I should live. What is within me and how compassionate I can share and interact with the world are the most important things.

Have a beautiful week.

"This world desperately needs silence. Most people are addicted to stress-producing stimuli. Mentally and emotionally, we need to fast, to clean out the system, to stop overloading it with mean and unnatural mental pollution.We are deeply afraid of the silence, the void, the emptiness…Empty places are not really empty; they are pregnant…the ever-present possibility of a magic moment or miraculous thought. Off the blank page jumps a cosmic summons. Out of that silence came the opening chords of Beethoven’s Fifth. "

Marianne Williamson, Illuminata

Have a wonderful week.

"While you'll feel compelled to charge forward, it's often a gentle step back that will reveal to you where you are and what you truly seek."

"Let go of what has passed. Let go of what may come. Let go of what is happening now. Don't try to figure anything out. Don't try to make anything happen. Relax, right now, and rest."

A meditation this week for me, as we finish the final preparations for our City Love fundraiser. Just breathe... #mondaymotivation #positivevibes #quotes
