Zen. Coming full circle…

A Zen saying: "I thought I had far to go, until I looked back and saw I had passed my destination many years before."

Enjoy this day. Enjoy your hearts. Just sitting. Just dancing. Just anything…

    Great choice of music Helen and Andrew.

    Another zen saying…

    If you understand, things are just as they are;
    if you do not understand, things are just as they are.

    The simple flower a smile it brings,
    A smile I see in simple things.
    The joy tha tblossoms in all that’s grows,
    The pleasure in a smile it shows.

    The serenity that glows in the tiny things
    The happiness in my souls, it radiates and sings.
    Warmth that tingles through my being,
    As i gaze in wonder in all that I’m seeing.

    Hello Nick.

    Nature a sublime thing. Something that memorizes and astounds. It wonder, its beauty, its ever changing delights, in which we are so lucky to be able to be part of. I hope you are well and have been making the most of the glorious sunshine that has been shinning over us.
    Take care X

    thoughtful as ever…….i love this letter thread…..but now we are at ‘z’….what next?

  12. Nick on 6th March 2010 at 7:24 pm permalink

    I don’t know… I’m not that thoughtful Richmond, he he. Infact there haven’t been many at all today… I’ve been absorbed in letting them go as they gather at the chip shop of constant newspaper. Nice to read you, to read you, nice! Have a great night Sir.

    Z is the beginning of me….
    to not think now thats a treat..

  14. Helen on 6th March 2010 at 7:59 pm permalink

    I think it’s so easy to think too much sometimes.

    Your mind can work overtime.

    Being happy just being today. Not thinking. Just going with the flow.

    Listening to beautiful music like this:

    Like a lovely lullaby, that Raman clip.
    Listening in the morning has thrown me slightly off kilter.

    This woke me back up again.
