Can’t wait for 2023!
It should be a great year
This is cool! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Happy Holidays!
Let’s all concentrate our energies toward a more positive world in 2023 #toastpacifica
Remember for 2023 to practice self-care!
Never will get tired of the beauty that lies in all corners of the Pacifica campuses. Not just scenery but the kindnesses shown, and friendly attitudes. I’m privileged to be able to witness such beauty. #toastpacifica
Surrender the demand that the world accommodate “me.” Dissolve the clench.
THE WORLD I LIVE IN
I have refused to live
locked in the orderly house of
reasons and proofs.
The world I live in and believe in
Is wider than that. And anyway,
what’s wrong with Maybe?
You wouldn’t believe what once or
twice I have seen. I’ll just
tell you this:
only if there are angels in your head will you
ever, possibly, see one.
—Mary Oliver
Home is not where we live. Home is where we belong. ~ African Proverb
Whatever is beautiful,
Whatever is meaningful,
Whatever brings you happiness,
May it be yours this Holiday Season
And throughout the New Year!
Why did you stop dancing?
Why did you stop drumming?
Why did you stop writing?
Why did you stop singing?
Why did you stop loving?
Why did you stop believing?
Why did you stop feeling?
Why did you stop dreaming?
Get back to your passion. Allow passion to take you from where you are to are, to the world of spiritual fulfillment where you rightfully belong.

“It is not so much the idea of everyone being an artist, but the idea of bringing what Henri called “the art spirit” to everything each one of us does individually.” – Russell A. Lockhart, Ph.D. in Dreams, Bones, & the Future: Queries and Speculations. #toastpacifica
A Toast to 2023! May Love and Kindness shine brighter in 2023 through the power of Love and the Soul!
A NYE poetic thought:
The truth waits for you in birdsong.
Listen.
Or the stones will tell you
if you prefer.
Silence, stones, birdsong,
the wind in the trees….
If you have a question,
ask it.
(You only need patience.)
(You only need the will to wait.)
~~~
Blessings to all this New Year!
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance… I hope you dance…
Your spiritual practice must resonate with your soul. Find what works for you. Do not seek approval from others. In 2023 — seek to develop your spiritual gifts and be consistent with your spiritual practice. You cannot live your best life if you neglect the needs of your soul.
