Real beauty is about resilience: girls and women who have been through something and come out the other side with an idiosyncratic scar or a hard-earned wrinkle, like the first lines of a powerful story.

“There is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophies. My brain and my heart are my temples; my philosophy is kindness.”
The Dalai Lama

Can the sea help the way that it meets the sand? No. For it is at the mercy of the winds, the tides and its own restless nature. Can the sand help but meet the sea? No. It waits and offers the solace of its shore, but will not give all of itself and is content to let the sea go.

The disciple said, how can I learn to radiate my inner light so that it lights the world? The master said, you only need to turn your face to the morning sun, close your eyes and give back what you feel.

When you represent something, part of it leaves you to inhabit another form, providing perspective and opening inner space for freedom.

My heart goes out to today’s victims of US flown drones.
Those ordinary citizens who lost limbs, life or loved ones.
My prayers are for those hiding tonight from US made guns.
Those innocents lost in the trenches of resource war.
My condolences are with mothers amidst US dropped chemical weapons.
Those whose babies were deformed and destroyed in the womb.
My concerns are about the runners maimed by US homegrown terror.
Those mourning the loss of freedom, safety and privilege.
My solidarities are behind those whose shock, awe and horror
Will never replay on US TV.
All are hurt by US nurtured violence, some invisibly.
All deserve peace, but we mourn unequally.

By the heart of a river, the tree said, sometimes you give, sometimes you get. The rocks said watch where you step. The sea said beware of the tides

The grass said to let go and grow, the tree said to let go and feel, and the sky said to let go and breathe…the wind only asked, why aren’t you dancing?
