January 11, 2015: “Holding Onto my Soul”


Lacking inspiration, I put my face to my camera and through the eyepiece I felt calm.  No idea for the photo and then I looked at a few of my books.  The books that guide my journey through this world.  When I need calm on a stormy day, I can turn to the Buddhist principles.  I look for kindness and love in this world.  I create my own for those around me. 

My only problem is I do this in waves, I always have one book in my bag but do not always practice.  The ultimate way I find peace is through meditation.  Sitting in peace creating an inner focus I am able to let things go, move forward and put aside fear.   I lack the solid practice to keep the contentment and hope for the future I find within the books.




With guides like thich nhat hanh, the dalai lama, and jack kerouac I know I can straighten my ship and gather my focus.  This peaceful photo came from lack of focus.  My current state in this project is a daily focus.

January 5, 2015: “Where is my Vision? (Moving Forward)

I wanted to share a piece of myself.  I thoroughly enjoy yoga, its therapeutic and spiritual elements.  Yoga and meditation allows me to focus myself, this Monday series for January is called where is my vision?  Today for a few moments I was able to focus my vision on moving forward. That is all I can hope for myself and you.  Take each day on its own, live in the present and create contentment.  Live life with a loving kindness, compassion for others while taking care of yourself.  Today’s tree pose is great at creating focus. 



I hope you enjoy!!! 
Namaste
