the ripe moment

They say beauty comes from a spirit

that has weathered many hardships in life

and somehow continues with resilience.

Grace can be found in a soul who ages softly,

even amid the tempest.

I think the loveliest by far

is the one whose gentle heart bears

a hundred scars from caring,

yet still finds a way to pick up the lamp,

one more time, to light the way for love.

~ Susan Frybort

when we need each other….

inquiry for today~ take good care of everyone, just a little bit….

simple hearts along the way…

Don’t worry if you feel you can only do one tiny good thing in one small corner of the cosmos.

Just be a Buddha body in that one place.

~Thich Nhat Hanh
