forgive & forget
Uttering the phrase,
“I beg your pardon?”
What exactly is it we ask?
Forgiveness? Mercy? Release?

disconnect
"Don't let yourself be separated from me. The country called life is close. By its seriousness, you will know it. Give me your hand." ~ Rainer Maria Rilke, Before He Makes Each One
Yesterday was April Fool’s Day, an occasion I have long ceased to actively participate in. Yet this year I felt like the butt of some cosmic joke when we found ourselves at midnight bidding goodbye to my sister and our niece’ whole family at the airport. . . .

Happy New Year 2014
http://changewarrior.blogspot.com/
For most the holidays and year end are when matters come to a head - for better or worse. As we rush, rush, rush then crash headlong into our future.
Instead of waiting for a special occasion, would it not feel better to acknowledge the specialness of every moment - timely or not?
Rather than giving the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time - how to do the opposite with attention and effort?
Giving is a disciplined art that needs years of practice and observation to be done appropriately.
The poet David Whyte writes of Giving - "The full genius of gift giving is found when we give what a person does not fully feel they deserve, but that does not overstretch the point, it is the appropriate but surprising next step in their lives. It disarms and moves and empowers all at once while gratifying the one who gives beyond most everyday satisfactions."
Hopefully our state of attention and affairs allows us to be creative and contemplative enough to do so.
If we missed it this year then there is hope in the New Year!

making whoopee!
October 31 is Samhain or Halloween - also known as All Hallows Eve - the celebration of the end of the year and the beginning of the year's last season. Straddling the line between fall and winter, harvest and follow, life and death, Halloween is a time of celebration and superstition.
Pagan or Christian, ancient or modern, young or old - the world over, we all come together to share and celebrate on this special day. As the wind grows chill and the days shorten, we bundle up around our hearths and get warm and cozy.
