What a fine point I can put on this moment and that Which points toward deeper meaning. Understanding. Borne. Or not.
Healing our Hearts … Online
Of course it may be challenging to alter social media behavior given the current state of competition for likes and followers that has grown so fraught as to be artificially hyper-inflated by the ability to purchase statistical favor by the thousands. But over time—with diligent and mindful practice—we would see the artifice fall away as all the “oxygen in the room” gets taken up by Love and Life-Affirming Heart-Centered Well Wishes for each other.
Parking Paisleys
the only love we know is the love we make. A TransFormation Plan is coming together.
Black and White and Red all over
