inhale, make space. exhale, go deeper

original post removed, but this pretty much sums it up. wise words from some of the greatest teachers...

buddha:
-if your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete.
-in the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.

lao tzu:
-the key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness.
-knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.

jesus:
-the kingdom of heaven is within you.

about to head off to yoga, but before I do, I wanted to say that I've been meaning to write about some things I've been experiencing the past few months, mostly about a "spiritual awakening," for lack of a better term. or let's call it a "divine realization..." or a "humanist manifestation..." or all of the above, perhaps. all of those things sound dramatic and maybe even silly, I know, and I'm not even sure I'm getting across what I'm trying to say, but whatever for now.

all I can say is I'm very grateful! I send out hugs and love with all of me!
