I feel the possibility that there is more to life than just being alive. Over the past few years, as I’ve gotten older, i have had concerns and fears about getting older and where I am heading too. Now I see all possibilities available to me now and what will be available once my time is up. I no longer far getting old and death.. I’m at peace..
Possibilities galore right now -driving (91 years young) mom north to finally give up her summer home and be full time now down south – not just a snowbird anymore – too much for her.
So possibilities to spend much time together, to reminisce over things, plan for the future and moments to discuss death, I suppose – how she is preparing for or facing that eventuality that at 91+ must seem looming?
As Whom you really, really are there’s nothing and no-one above you to boss you and nothing and no-one below you to bug you. And if you go on to describe this twofold liberation as participation in the divine freedom of the One who alone is truly free. That is the possibility.
After meeting a childhood friend who Id not seen in over 40 years, a lot of dusty memories were stirred up, and it left me feeling unsettled. The dust has settled and I feel the possibility of letting the past go -“you can never go home again”- and once again living in the moment
I feel possibility inasmuch as I am coming to discover that my purpose in life seems to be to grow in knowledge. This opens almost infinite possibilities. There are so many things I can learn about science, philosophy, psychology, spirituality, politics, and an infinite variety of topics that relate to the universe and our place in it.
despite the on=gong cycles of conscious ups and downs
here is a clip from Pierre Pradervand’s June 2022 Blog, he is very intone with my own Essene practices.
So, my spiritual practice has boiled down to one simple thing: expressing love in all situations, constantly – and of course here I am still in the kindergarten of loving, but I have at least started. Every morning, I ponder the following text (that you will find elsewhere on this site too) with a deep, deep yearning. This is the key for me: this deep yearning to become nothing but “a big ball of love” , to express nothing but unconditional, universal, joyful love:
Creator, bless my eyes that I may see with love.
Bless my mouth that I may speak with love.
Bless my ears that I may listen with love.
Bless my heart that I may give and receive love.
Bless my hands that all I touch feels loved and that all I do is done with love.
Bless my mind that I may think with love,
And bless my feet that my walk may be a prayer on Mother Earth.

As the day is just beginning for me right now, I feel possibility anywhere. Happy National Say Something Nice Day everyone:) Have a great Wednesday everyone. rabbit rabbit rabbit

Wow, Cathie – I’m ‘only’ 76 yrs [old] – but I guess ’91’ is your mom 🙂
My mother died in her 98th year. Warm wishes –
To love anyhow, as has been vividly conveyed by Bishop Curry yesterday. Hallelujah anyhow! Whatever circumstances, do my best.

I will try to be open to all the possibilities. Loosening my grip on the illusion of control.
It is no place and no special time. But if there is possibility it must be here and now.

June 2022
Love that … what a nice reminder and a great morning meditation to focus on, thank you Ed:)
the possibility needs courage, so on to the possibility of courage 🙂
In my heart, for this day and each moment that lies ahead 🙂
In this new day I feel endless possibilities and opportunities.
Every moment brims with possibility. Thank you for the reminder.
I feel possibility in every hour yet to come in this brand new day.
As the day is just beginning for me right now, I feel possibility anywhere. Happy National Say Something Nice Day everyone:) Have a great Wednesday everyone. rabbit rabbit rabbit
