“Always say “yes” to the present moment. What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to what already is? what could be more insane than to oppose life itself, which is now and always now? Surrender to what is. Say “yes” to life — and see how life suddenly starts working for you rather than against you.”
― Eckhart Tolle
There is a stretching of the Soul to encompass that which believes it has power to control.
The Soul is Universal, One, of which I/We are part of. The many make the whole and together we flex, to hold/contain that which must be held.

Trees, like people, come in varying types and sizes. Some have missing limbs, some are crooked, some have leaves and some have nettles.
They are ALL home for birds and other life, none are overlooked or deemed more perfect than the other. Only different. And beautiful.

Cleaning my filing cabinet I recycled many old papers, it was such a potent time I felt compelled to light a candle and make it a ritual of release.
I came across a printed sheet with something inspiring on it, so am going to share it with you here.
One very important thing to learn, to improve your life metaphysically, is praise. It is about this time of year when we begin to think of family and friends that we know to identify blessings in our life. Here are a few suggestions.
1: Write down the names of your family, friends, and coworkers.
2: By each persons name write down something beneficial they have contributed in your life (even things that were “l sons” of what not to be.)
3: Recognize that because of ALL incidents in your life you have become what you are today.
4: Now write down all of the good qualities these people have taught you.
5: Each day between now and Christmas make an affirmation that says “I bless the quality of ____________ that grew in me because of ____________, and I bless (the person) ____________ who strengthened that quality in me.
6: Say it several times a day and see miracles that can occur in you, in your personality and in the personalities of the people around you.
7: You are proving the power of using spiritual laws in your life. Your faith is stronger. You begin to expect greater hood than you have ever had before.
8: You are a blessing during this holiday season.

In the land of comparison, there will always be deficiency.
These days, I have become a collector,
Tender of the flimsy, yellow, and still…
Putting one foot in front of the other,
I take the formless to heart; and I fill
Pots with dirt and myself with cold white wine.
Utterly beside the point in straw hat
And fussing with flowers, I am consigned
Neither to here nor there, to this and that.
Long since the Furies cried, I’ve been alone
For gods don’t rejoice in the death of two.
Doggedly, like Sisyphus and his stone
I push, but second chances are so few.
When I stumble, kind eyes avert their gaze
And we fall each time I look back, these days.
When you find a sale on eggs, you can freeze them to store for baking and cooking later.
Eggs can not be frozen in the shell, but can be out of the shell.
Crack a single egg into each slot in an ice cube tray. Freeze, then pop out and put back into the freezer in a zip lock bag freeing up your ice cube trays for other purposes.
To use simply leave a cube per each egg the recipe calls for sitting at room temp in a bowl to defrost.
Freeze for up to 3 months or as long as 1 year.
