8 years ...
8 years ago today I met the most wonderful person in the world. He brought me out of a deep depression after the end of a 12 year relationship and I can never thank him enough for being in my life …..
Daily Tao - 363 / Night
NIGHT In night’s vast ocean, Sun, moon, and earth align, Pulling the earth out of roundness And making tides rage. Such is the power of night. Night. You are mother of all. You existed before all. You are the background, the fabric, the whole underpinning of the universe. In you is abstruse mystery, darker than the deepest water, blacker than the sleep of sleeps. You are an...
Ghosts of Christmas Presents Past ...
At what point in our lives do we grow up and start asking for practical Christmas presents ??? Being a child of the late 60’s / early 70’s i can remember eagerly waiting for the Sears “Wish Book” each November , I would spend hours and hours pouring over this catalogue ( always after getting my homework done , of course ) dreaming of each and...
Daily Tao - 362 / Emptiness
EMPTINESS Dust cannot gather If there is no mirror there. Some people have compared a pure soul to the unsullied brightness of a perfect mirror. Others have retorted that if there is no mirror there in the first place, then there cannot be anything to be sullied. The soul is empty. We should not think of our souls as discrete and separate from the rest of creation....

Daily Tao - 350 / Hourglass
HOURGLASS Life is like an hourglass. Consciousness is the sand. Imagine an hourglass. Its shape is like the symbol for infinity. Its form recalls the double helix of DNA. Its two sections represent polarity. The material on one side, the immaterial on the other. The male on one side, and the female on the other. Hot and cold, positive and negative, or any other duality. The sand runs...

Daily Tao - 349 / Water
WATER Drops. Water cleanses, Gathers in the earth. Tender. Invasive. Subtle. Emerges a shining river. When small, it is weak. When great, it tumbles mountains, Rendering great cliffs Sand. Classic wisdom says that there is nothing weaker than water, yet when united, it can become a titanic force. Like a tidal wave. Or a river that cuts through gorges. This is called the yielding overcoming...

Daily Tao - 348 / Spine
SPINE Tao is the road up your spine. Tao is the road of your life. Tao is the road of the cosmos. People are often confused about Tao because there are references to it on so many different levels. After all, it permeates all existence. Indeed it might be said that Tao is existence itself. It might seem odd that we can talk about Tao on a level so mundane as physical exercise and...
Daily Tao - 347 / Clarifying
CLARIFYING Express yourself: That is meaning. Ask yourself each day, “What remains unexpressed within me?” Whatever it is, bring it out. But be judicious. The rantings of mad people do not yield greater freedom. Those who are with Tao use expression to find greater understanding of themselves and so find liberation from ignorance and circumstance. All that is good and unique...

Daily Tao - 346 / Purpose
PURPOSE Suddenly, things snap into focus. I’ve been pursuing unity all my life, But could only glimpse the monstrous vision in fragments; It has haunted me for years. Each time I sighted it, I struggled to make it concrete. At first, it seemed I only had a sculptor’s yard of unfinished figures — Then it slowly began to make sense, Gathered from glimpses and inferences....
