Reading-poetry-300x300

My journey is about releasing things, not acquiring them; letting go, not adding on to. Having said that, I also believe that "things that make your heart sing" are not clutter. If they brighten your day, make your life easier, more fun, or feel supremely good... not clutter. Nor …

Accepting what is. Laughing 'til it hurts. Birdsong. The feeling of pure spacious ease. Taking nothing personally. Joyful anticipation. Dancing or listening to really hot Latin music. Rumi's infinite wisdom in the poem below. Those are some of the ways I experience freedom. How about you? This …
