1/19/09
As a celebration of the new year my sangha does this cool thing. We ask a question to the 'bell oracle' (our facilitators have copied many wonderful poems and buddhist quotes and put them into our large bell that sits on the floor) We ask our question, breath 3 times and then draw the anwser from the bell. After I asked, "How can I find joy and creative inspiration in the midst of a hecktic schedule?"
The bell oracle said...
Breathing in, I have become space without boundaries.
I have no plans left.
I have no luggage.
(that's the poem under the heart, if you didn't notice)
wow. I folded my paper up and put it under my shirt right against my heart. This sentament is one that I really want to sink in.
look. this is my new mirror! I am starting a little wall sculpture. I was inspired by the altar we saw in the Thai restaurant in Nasheville. I love those things. and I could use some good joo, joo right now.
since arriving home my new year has been filled with self doubt, fear and worry about the future. But, all I can do is enjoy today. this moment is all that we have.
Thanks for posting, Ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its working. you are inspirering me!
