is to shift your thinking this year.
Welcome in ambiguity.
Learn to love the holy darkness of mystery.
Dance on the fertile edges of life.
Let what you love ripen forth.

12 Signs You are Waking From The Dream (not in it).
Lori Ann Lothian
It’s that moment where you realize
you just might have not only
woken up in the dream,
but from it.
Symptoms:
1. Nothing on the menu of self development and spiritual growth matters.
Cause you know the self that is tinkering with self improvement is not real.
2. Everything you do matters because
you are not doing it.
3. Nothing you say matters
because it’s the silence
that speaks.
4. Your life is not your life.
It never was.
But Life is You.
5. Joy replaces happiness
and is strangely always present,
even when the rattle of thought
now and then
tells you otherwise.
6. Peace is effortless.
You don’t meditate for it.
It simply is.
7. All the hard work of living a good life
of meaning and purpose
is suddenly laughable --
the only meaning is presence,
and presence cares nothing
for work, life, or hard.
8. Presence takes time and space
and tosses it out with the garbage.
There is You.
Now.
Here.
The rest is a dream.
9. The dream is now a script
being written by Love.
You just delight in the role
you are given.
Period.
10. Everything gets Done.
No one does it.
11. The world’s woes are real.
But not True.
12. I AM.
So are You.

the interruption of the imposition
of our own egos, our will,
on the world...
Silence is where we hear
something deeper
than our chatter.
Silence is where we speak
something deeper than our words.
Silence is the resting place
of the Essential.
and the more
we get away from Silence,
the more we lose our humanity.
Silence returns us to what is real.
Silence is a journey
into the Heart of Being.
If you allow silence to circulate,
your mind becomes aware of
what Truth is.
It makes you aware
that you're not in control
of anything.
Seek Silence...
silence calls to us...
It is not an esoteric practice.
It is as simple as shifting your attention
from the things that cause noise
to the vast interior spaciousness,
which is
our natural silence.
From the documentary film:
In Pursuit of Silence

Closer
I get to you, Beloved,
The more I can see
It is just You and I all alone
In this
World.
I hear
A knock at my door,
Who else could it be,
So I rush without brushing
My hair.
For too
Many nights
I have begged for Your
Return
And what
Is the use of vanity
At this late hour, at this divine season,
That has now come to my folded
Knees?
If your love letters are true dear God
I will surrender myself to
Who You keep saying
I
Am.
Hafiz

I is I.
I is neither bond nor free.
I is the universal, supreme, divine,
true identity of all of us,
regardless of what form
it may have assumed in this incarnation.
We must learn to live
with this I in the midst of us,
learn to look to It for all inspiration.
If we need an idea for a book or for a painting,
for business or for law,
regardless of what it is,
the I encompasses it.
And this I is within us.
Then if it is necessary to find a book, a teacher, a publisher
— whatever it is --
when we turn within,
the I will appear outwardly
as the form necessary
to our unfoldment
at any moment.”
~Joel S Goldsmith
A PARENTHESIS IN ETERNITY
The Daily Lesson – December 30, 2018

with the feeling
that now, aged 50,
I’m just poised to shoot forth
quite free straight and undeflected
my bolts whatever they are.
Therefore all this flitter flutter
of weekly newspapers interests me
not at all.
These are the soul’s changes.
I don’t believe in aging.
I believe in forever altering
one’s aspect to the sun.
Hence my optimism.
And to alter now,
cleanly and sanely,
I want to shuffle off this
loose living randomness:
people; reviews;
fame;
all the glittering scales;
and be withdrawn,
and concentrated.
~Virginia Woolf

with inner Grace,
every situation you face will be
an opportunity to enhance your life.
Sadhguru
Shit it did in my eye.
But I can neither worry nor cry,
Because I’m a positive thinker.
I thank God and pray that buffaloes don’t fly."
If you are not willing to see life the way it is,
there is no way to take a step about it.
You can’t do anything about it.
You can only do funny things mentally,
which can keep you entertained for a while
but will never take you anywhere.
Sadhguru
Above is
