Imagine a flower in the morning. The flower is not yet open. The sunshine embraces the flower, and the energy of the sunshine begins to penetrate the flower.
The sun doesn’t just go around the flower. The light naturally penetrates the flower, and an hour later the flower has to open itself to the sun.
The sun is our mindfulness, embracing the flower of our feelings.

“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”
Look here,
Come closer and look,
That’s it…
Close your eyes,
No, please don’t laugh,
I’m serious,
Right, now that your eyes are closed,
Look at the darkness,
Do you see the different shades?
It’s amazing how one color can be so diverse,
Imagine if we mixed the vibrant palette of the earth,
What a wondrous and magical rainbow we could create,
Come, let’s go generate it…
BREAKING: Today’s the day — after months of fighting for the Open Internet, and after dodging a last minute legal challenge, Net Neutrality officially went into effect today.
This is a huge win, but we can’t rest on our laurels. Big Cable is already working to defund the FCC’s action. The strongest Open Internet protections ever have just gone into effect, as the FCC listened to the millions of Americans who’ve asked them to reclassify broadband service and preserve net neutrality.
Comcast and Verizon won’t stand for this — their lobbyists are already urging Congress to undo these monumental wins. Big Cable and Big Telecom want won’t let up. And neither can we.
Tell Congress — let the FCC’s rules stand and block any legislation that would undermine or defund net neutrality!
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has heard from 4 million Americans and written the strongest Open Internet rules ever.
Congress ought to allow these historic wins to stand.
The FCC has done its job, and the Congress should not pass a legislation full of loopholes that won’t get the job done or use the appropriations process to subvert the will of the people.
Please let the FCC’s ruling stand and block any legislation that would undermine or defund net neutrality.
A racing mind is the stress that comes with you not being able to stop thinking.
You don’t have the opportunity to fall asleep because you can’t let go of those thoughts long enough to drift. You’re mind is swirling around thought of past, future, and present.
In general when you’ve got a racing mind at night, your thoughts fall into 3 categories:
What Should I have Done Today
You go over and over all those things that you wish you’d accomplished, but didn’t have the time or energy to. Oftentimes, this leads to a negative emotional place where you start to beat yourself up for not getting enough done.
What do I need to get Done Tomorrow
This, of course, doesn’t just encompass your workload, though that’s often the lead stress-causer. It’s really just a hodge-podge of everything that turns your tomorrow into a daunting mountain. And the temptation can be to jump up and get a head start. But that will only leave you exhausted and far less productive.
Losing Sleep over Sleep
That frustration and feeling of defeat when you realize how much worse your day will be tomorrow when you don’t get any sleep tonight. And your thoughts start to focus on, “O my gosh, I should really be asleep right now!” “Why am I not falling asleep?”
She is coming, my own, my sweet;
Were it ever so airy a tread,
My heart would hear and beat,
Were it earth in an earthy bed,
My dust would hear her and beat,
Had I lain for a century dead,
Would start and tremble under her feet,
And blossom in purple and red.
"the Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord shine His face upon you and be gracious unto you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace"
