Daily peace and purpose is the aim or the path. I sometimes step off it, but always find my way back. It's a practice I suppose.

I think being fully present without labels for things is what brings out the extraordinary in the seemingly ordinary. I experienced this one time when I got curious about boredom and sat on the back porch and purposely made myself as bored as possible, I stuck with it and noticed my perspective shift. My mind calmed and I began to notice all the little miracles happening in front of me. The breeze through the pine trees as the sun was setting, illuminating the tops of them creating a forest of candles. It was incredible.

Thanks for this piece!
