good morning ... I wanted to share another excerpt from my book The way of Chuang Tzu by Thomas Merton .... Merton writes: "the effect of life in society is to complicate and confuse our existence, making us forget who we really are by becoming obsessed with what we are not. It is this self awareness, which we try to increase and perfect by all sorts of methods and practices, that is really a forgetfulness of our true roots in the "unknown Tao" and out solidarity in the "uncarved block" in which there are yet no distinctions." I find this to be such a powerful reminder of our wholeness. We are whole and complete as we come into this world and while we are taught to achieve - strive - seek --- these actions only separate us further from the reality of our true nature - and source. We already are all that we ever wanted to be - NOW .. and it is when we stop the seeking that we find the truth ... love and many blessings
