Remember

You are Life

You are eternal

You are truly beautiful

Anchor your attention in what is

Beyond what you see, hear and touch

Beyond all mental thought constructions

That which cannot be spoken of

Only discovered

By grace.

She placed her hand on his shoulder, slowly bended over him and gave him a “good morning” kiss, with raspberry flavor.–Mmm, raspberry clafoutis … For breakfast! Only you make me realize I am hungry. Mira opened her hand and placed a cluster of red beads filled with sweet nectar… (excerpt from “Theo and Mira, Loving Life”)
