STOP BEING SO RELIGIOUS

STOP BEING SO RELIGIOUS

What
Do sad people have in
Common?

It seems
They have all built a shrine
To the past

And often go there
And do a strange wail and
Worship.

What is the beginning of
Happiness?

It is to stop being
So religious

Like

That.

("The Gift" - versions of Hafiz by Daniel Ladinsky)

A whiff of bliss

I have been doing my utmost to catch a whiff of bliss...

I am doing three things I love on a daily basis - cooking, cross-stitching and reading.

I love having the time to do all of these things which are so sacred to me.

Each one is a different form of meditation, requiring focus and attention.

All is well.
