In awakened awareness we let our delight shine just a little brighter in the company of others in case anyone else's lantern of joy has dimmed. 



~ Catherine Ingram

Like the little stream....

When all thoughts are exhausted,
I slip into the woods, and gather a pile of shepherd's purse.

Like the little stream making its way through the mossy crevices,
I, too, quietly turn clear, and transparent.


~ Zen Master Ryokan

Love is old

Love is new

Love is all

Love is YOU


~ The Beetles

Where there's life,there's hope.

Happiness is a state of mind, 
a choice, 
a way of living;
it is not something to be achieved, 
it is something to be experienced.



~ Steve Maraboli

Enjoy your life

May you be at peace;
May your heart remain 
open;
May you awaken to the light 
of your own true nature.

Christmas Wishes

It is the season of the year that most,

if not all of us,try to become better,

if only to show that we care at least once a year.

Here is hoping that we have a Christmas heart
every day.

May the spirit of Christmas bring you peace,

The gladness of Christmas give you hope,

The warmth of Christmas grant you love.

If you enjoy the fragrance of a rose,



you must accept the thorns which it bears.
