New way to meditate

Did Level I Shambala Workshop--The Art of being Human
Intense and lovely. Keeping me on point.



Bold Compassion for Soft Being

Pathetic flawed like all the rest
I drink my wine and laugh, happy and joyous
Of it all
Of everything, every smell I've smelled
Each memory including the ones that rarely see the eastern sun
So painful and sharp
I lean into them and choose to
Be cheerful
Because I care less about fretting over
Past discretions, future foibles and instead
Breathe this moment
A new and fresh smell for the asking
Over and over
Sweet human being that I am

Toes cold this night as fall brings the anticipation of
Covered earth
White and pure
The snow will come
Like this breath
And this one
Like ocean's waves
I bring my attention to the out breath
Pushing to shore
Receding with nerry a thought

There is a basic goodness
And I've caught a glimpse

Wishing you all everything you hope for...
My prayer tonight is for you.
