Thoughts: Ready for the holidays…
Thoughts: We play this game together…
Guy gets hurt in a game. Guy on the other side checks on him & says he hurts, too, that the guy who got hurt is like a little brother to him.
It’s more than class & sportsmanship…it’s the way people really do. More real than the pretend stuff on the highlight reels….humans actually caring about each other, the way we do.
(Here’s the story…)
Thoughts: Don’t forget your flashlight….
“The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek. Fear of the unknown is our greatest fear. Many of us would enter a tiger’s lair before we would enter a dark cave. While caution is a useful instinct, we lose many opportunities and much of the adventure of life if we fail to support the curious explorer within us.”
~Joseph Campbell
Thoughts: Lightly, now.
It’s dark because you are trying too hard.
Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly.
Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply.
Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.
Aldous Huxley
