Optimism is Essential
Choose to be optimistic. It feels better.
~~ Dalai Lama
Greetings to all my precious people!!
Late May and early June is my favorite time of year. The temperature is comfortable, all of Nature is in bloom, and the extended sunlight hours add to a feeling of uplift and optimism. The school year is winding down, and vacation plans are being put into action. There is a lightness of being, especially when the sun is shining brightly in the blue skies. But there is also trouble brewing on multiple levels and sometimes it is hard to ignore. Financial stress, political turmoil, family life uproars and health challenges abound for so many of us, and these facts cannot be easily remedied.

Permission is Granted
“Perhaps the most important thing we bring to another person is the silence in us,
not the sort of silence that is filled with unspoken criticism or hard withdrawal.
The sort of silence that is a place of refuge, of rest,
of acceptance of someone as they are.”
~~ Rachel Naomi Remen
