SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS -- 38

WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE OF STILLNESS

+ Constantly rushing discourages authentic behavior. It is the opposite of compassion, kindness, love, and sensitivity, and more important, it is the enemy of being present, both to the moment and to others. To be truly present, we have to take our time, whether we are looking at the task at hand, ... or listening to the people around us. ... Allow yourself to slow down and be present to others and to the miracle of the present moment.
 -- Wayne Teasdale in The Mystic Hours offered by OneSpirit on 12/23/15

+ The miracle of the present moment! I love that phrase.
