Peace is Where We Find It

Dear Friends! A beautiful poem of Hope during these difficult times. May we walk in Grace, wherever we find ourselves. Blessings!

Irgendwie kommen die Krokusse immer hoch

The dark days of winter have passed.  Spring is in the air!  Even during our darkest times, hope blooms afresh.  May the Fragrance of Spring grace your life today!

Die dunklen Tage des Winters sind vorbei.  Der Frühling liegt in der Luft!  Selbst in unseren dunkelsten Zeiten blüht die Hoffnung wieder auf.  Möge der Duft des Frühlings Ihr Leben heute prägen!

Hürtgenwald in Winter. Global warming banished December’s snow…and now frost has encased flowering branches. Nature’s Resiliance always impresses me! I muse about how I, too, can thrive in harsh weather. Beauty always surrounds us…we simply need to open our eyes and see.

Hürtgenwald im Winter. Die globale Erwärmung hat den Schnee im Dezember verbannt… und jetzt hat der Frost die blühenden Zweige eingehüllt. Die Widerstandsfähigkeit der Natur beeindruckt mich immer wieder! Ich denke darüber nach, wie auch ich bei rauem Wetter gedeihen kann. Schönheit umgibt uns immer … wir müssen einfach nur die Augen öffnen und sehen.

“Be happy and fearless.  Remember that you are a child of Divinity.  Loss and gain cannot touch even  your shadow.”  ~Swami Rama

A place of beauty and peace…a place where all are welcome.  We gather in the Poconos Mountains of rural Pennsylvania to share our yoga practice, learn from one another, savor vegetarian delights, and deepen our journey to wholeness.  A wonderful way to launch my own Act II in Life–today is my first Official Day of Retirement.  A wonderful breath and movement practice opened our hearts–I felt as though I was opening myself to New Beginnings.  I bid a fond farewell to the past, embracing the new.

Every journey begins with a single step.  A silent walking meditation took us to Sunset Pond, where we watched in wonder as dragonflies skimmed across the water.  Calm embraced us.  Such a blessing, these peaceful moments!
