Aloha, we are meeting in the Circle all day. Consider yourself invited.
I have a new (and different!) technology problem that I hope to clear up this weekend or in the coming days. So I won’t be sending out a longer invitation.
A lot of people in the world are observing services and praying for peace, and if you feel inclined to join, it’s a good opportunity to stand with those inviting a solution to intricate problems, inviting coexistence, inviting a future.
Just recently, I overheard a lot of people say that they don’t feel informed or “certain” enough about how they could be making a difference and that the odds seem stacked against everyone with a pure heart. Well, by meditating, you already are opening up your trajectory to input that otherwise takes years to learn, to compost and to readjust, and forging a path for wisdom to communicate with you. Know that there are many ways to help victims of any kind, to become nonviolent, to find meaning, and to be available to useful action. I’ve been pointing at that for the last years, because a sense of purpose is key to self-worth and connection with reality.
Just for today, you might choose to not go over the usual self-quiz or meditative journeys I offer in my invitations and instead bring to mind everything you are grateful for. A big part of our blessings is unearned; it is good to acknowledge that. Then there are conditions we have shaped, or co-created, and these deserve attention, too. Further, notice the skills you’ve developed and the learning curves of just the last two, three years. Don’t remain vague or hide behind ambiguous, nice sounding words: name your improvements, stations, successes. Once consciousness registers movement forward, and that you’ve been evolving indeed, it activates more of your manifestation stamina.
To me, this will be a Day of Gratitude and of sorting tasks I want to get done before summer solstice. Also, I’m grateful to this Circle and the healing we’ve accomplished so far.

In gassho, I humbly receive.
