Life meets each of us where we need to be met

Life meets each of us where we need to be met, leading us to the doors with our names on them.

Now I Can See the Moon

Barn’s burnt down —
Now I can see the moon.
Masahide (17th-century Japanese poet)

I discovered a great site where you can make your own books. It's not a self-publishing company; it's a company that lets you use their software to create and maintain ownership over your own projects. The photo above is on the cover of my book I've titled Receive Inspiration. In it I have my photographs matched with quotes, just like on this blog. I ordered a couple in hardback with a dust jacket and the quality is amazing.

Anyway, have fun making your own books. And here is the link where you can find mine. If you click on the cover, you will be able to preview the first fifteen pages. Here is the link.

Stillness

Wherever you go in the midst of movement and activity, carry your stillness within you. Then the chaotic movement around you will never overshadow your access to the reservoir of creativity, the field of pure potentiality. Deepak Chopra

A little getaway

One of the great things about living in Arizona is that in very little time I can get to breathtakingly beautiful places like Sedona. The above photo is from the car on the way in. Although I just did an overnighter, I had time to have dinner at the Heartline Cafe, watch the sunset, go on a skywatch where, with three astronomers, I got to look through telescopes and see Saturn, Jupiter and four of its moons, a binary star system, the star Antares in the Scorpio constellation and many other stars. It was an amazing evening! The next morning I had breakfast at my favorite breakfast place, The Coffeepot.

Beauty

We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.
