Unfinished poem...






“Unfinished Poem"

I would love to live like a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding.”

John O'Donohue

Life drawing this morning.  Bliss and Joy!  Definitely carried away on a journey of beautiful unknowing and unfolding.



How can life be so sweet and so sour at the same time?







I've had an overdose of disturbing news over the internet.It's time to find a powerful antidote.





'To meet hatred and loss with a generous heart is the most difficult practice imaginable.
Yet what is the purpose of a spiritual practice if you are not going to use it in life's difficult moments?'


'It requires humility to surrender to the mystery of life, it's unpredictability.  It requires an equal amount of courage to face life's loses and  be willing to say:
'This too is life,'

 and bear it as you find it.'



and humour always helps!

Above drawing by Saul Steinberg. So love his images.

 Saul was a Romanian /American cartoonist and illustrator, June 15, 1914 – May 12, 1999,  best known for his work for The New Yorker.  He described himself as "a writer who draws".
