sun meditation

imagine you are sitting or lying in the sun
feel warmth on your skin
let go of any fear of getting sunburnt and welcome sunshine onto you
absorb it, draw it in as if you are a big human sponge, suck sunlight into every part of you
fill yourself up with light

why...?

cause i said so

"A new idea is first condemned as ridiculous and then dismissed as trivial, until finally, it becomes what everybody knows"
- William James

i love him!

so big he didn't fit into frame - belongs in a castle somewhere...

lead by example

we all know that we can't change people. even when our intention is good, when all we want for our loved ones is to be their best - ultimately it's up to them to desire change and to find it all out for themselves

as the great Mahatma Gandhi says 

"We must be the change we wish to see in the world"

we must lead by example; we must parent well - opening our minds and hearts to infinite and extrordinary ways to positively live (we must aunty and uncle just as well!)

we must share our good fortune and be of service to the power of good. 

we must be good listeners as friends go through their self-discovery process

we must strive to be happy and learn to thrive

for it's all in our hands

as the little hand said to the big hand 

"I'll follow your lead"

can't hug money

on monday i caught up with a dear girlfriend and her young family

conversations roamed from this to that and at one moment we were talking about how great it would be to win this weeks 70 mil Lotto

riffing on what we'd do with it all that cash, my warm hearted girlfriend sincerely pointed out that money wasn't everything

her genius 5 year old son agreed saying

"you can't hug it"
