Life lived intimately may not be easier. But it is fuller, richer and more open to everything: the confusion and the insight, the excitement and the boredom, the shadow and the light. And somehow, expanding my ability to simply be with it all does make what is hard easier to bear, allows me to give and receive in each moment. More often than not it simply helps me find my sense of humour when I’m taking myself too seriously, to laugh at how easily the wonderful serenity of the meditative moment can be shattered by the mundane sensation of cold water on the bathroom floor soaking through my socks. ~Oriah Mountain Dreamer from THE INVITATION tinyurl/2wpgbkz May we take a deep breath and begin the work week with a willingness to be with it all, to smile at how easily we can be distracted or disgruntled, knowing our humour can bring us back to centre without the need for chastising ourselves. There will be cold water & burnt toast, & some of the time, more serious challenges, and we will do our best, and that. . . is. . . enough.
