"He who binds to himself a joydoes the
winged life destroy;But he who kisses he joy as it fliesLives in
eternity's sunrise."
- William Blake, was an
English poet, painter, and printmaker.
"What I think is that a good life is
one hero journey after another. Over and over again, you are called
to the realm of adventure, you are called to new horizons. Each
time, there is the same problem: do I dare? And then if you do
dare, the dangers are there, and the help also, and the fulfillment
or the fiasco. There's always the possibility of a fiasco. But
there's also the possibility of
bliss."
- Joseph Campbell, page
133 from his book "Pathways to
Bliss".
"How to be at peace now? By making
peace with the present moment. The present moment is the field on
which the game of life happens. It cannot happen anywhere else.
Once you have made peace with the present moment, see what happens,
what you can do or choose to do, or rather what life does through
you. There are three words that convey the secret of the art of
living, the secret of all success and happiness: One With Life.
Being one with life is being one with Now. You then realize that
you don't live your life, but life lives you. Life is the dancer,
and you are the dance."
- Eckhart Tolle, page 115
from his super awesome book "A New Earth: Awakening to Your
Life's Purpose".

Whenever the Uni-verse asks you to move on there
is a sense of sadness that accompanies letting go.
Do not deny the
sadness of moving on. Instead sit in it with a whole lot of love
for yourself and the situation. No matter how much you may wish
that life could be different accept that this is what's true for
today.
There is a jewel
within the melancholy of letting go. The jewel is the beginning of
a new awareness within yourself and a new life. Each relationship,
business venture, job and phase of our lives serve as platforms for
us to grow.
Joy comes to
those who are able to sit in the in between, the space between what
was and what will be. Joy comes to those who do not run from their
feelings but courageously embrace them in search of the new jewel
of awareness.
Remember, for a
new day to begin the darkness of night must fall. Each is a natural
part of the cycle of life. Embrace the dark moments and remember
that just before dawn is the darkest of night.
Just be with it -
the dawn will break.

I am one with
Life.
I know that THIS
TOO WILL PASS, so I breathe and let go.
I see the jewel
within the sadness and am grateful for this
lesson.
