DAY 233

embrace aloneness

No matter if it´s wished or imposed, 

if you think it´s terrible or awe inspiring

No matter if it frightens you or you feel that it´s a pleasure you can´t afford


Look for moments alone with yourself and appreciate those that emerge unexpectedly because this will help you to develop your most contemplative side and, by doing this,  you will make room for ecstasy and awe for the miracle of being

Indeed, when we really become a friend with our solitude we can  get in touch with our old, wise soul and  find our spiritual vision whom allows us to  recognize the reason why we (as individuals) are here, now.... the inner logic of this precise and unrepeatable existence

DAY 226

"Without accepting the fact that everything changes
we cannot find perfect composure. But unfortunately, although it is true, it is difficult for us to accept it. Because we cannot accept the truth of transience, we suffer"

Shunryu Suzuki-roshi


wordless wednesday: transience

DAY 219

praying artlessly


"Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.

Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.

Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.

Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.

Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you."

Pueblo Blessing
