Stay tuned
I love the forest
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
-Robert Frost
September Sun
In tune with the universe. Right after morning yoga and meditation I went down to the beach just in time to witness this miracle. Grateful beyond words.
Akal – Timeless.

Here is the foot of a tree.
Here is an empty quiet place.
Here is a small sitting cushion.
Here is the cool green of the grass.
My child, why don’t you sit down.
