    True Growth

    Loveland Sculpture Park – 2012

    “There is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that you are not the voice of the mind – you are the one who hears it.”

    Michael A. Singer

    Over the years I’ve become aware of the idea that I am not the voice of my mind. However, this awareness is only the beginning. Each day is an opportunity to learn more of this truth about my life. I also learn from watching others who are not who they are but believe the voice of their mind. The practice of meditation is helping me in letting go of, or identifying with, the voices and thoughts. I then can carry that practice into all areas of my life. Maybe true growth is the awareness of this and put it into action. It is a beautiful day here in Colorado. Hoping you have a wonderful day!

    I have about 10 drafts in my post sections. I either need to finish them or delete them. So you may see some posts that are not stellar writing but appear here because of my decision to rid myself of drafts. 😂

    Snow Capped

    It can be rewarding to get outside the day of or the day after a snowfall, you never know what you might find. The day before this image was taken we had a nice snowfall and as sometimes happens today has turned out to be bright, sunny and warm, a great time to be outside. I drove to a park located near my condo and started to walk around. Near the kids playground, which was empty, there is a maze for the children, made of treated posts. The snow on the flat top is melting and creating a wonderful pattern just waiting for some guy with a camera to take a shot. That was me. It’s good to get out after a snowfall.
