This is the 14th in a series of presenting posters previ-ously used here.
I am staying in touch this way, while swamped with work. Today's gallery is about celebrating life.

"What man should fear is not death," said the Roman emperor Marcus
Aurelius, "what man should fear is never beginning to live." We can be so caught up with making a living that we don't make time celebrating it.
Having wonder for life is drinking in its beauty and maj-esty.
It is easy being hyp-notized, a drone, moving through the demands of life, trying to attain what the world tells us is necessary for a fulfilled life. We scurry, to make ends meet. In the pro-cess, we disdain the joy within our reach because we grasp for what we think is more splendid or exciting.
However, abundance is not in how much we have but in how much we enjoy.
The change is us stop looking horizontally---getting our worth from others---and having a vertical and internal perspective, instead. |
Gold neither comforts nor nourishes us. Connecting, bonding with others does. It also lengthens our life and makes us happier, less cynical.
We were made for deep emotional closeness. If we were meant to hold money, we would have been born with pockets. The only pocket we were born with is our heart.
When it is filled with encouragement, hope, connection, authenticity, closeness, love, and faith, we delight in a richness far beyond any bank can provide.
Emotional bonding provides sanity during rough times.
It provides comfort when we are distraught. Such times of connecting with others let us know we are heard, understood and cared for, all of which strengthens our soul, ground-ing us for turbulent times.
