Our felt sense,
habitual intuition
and nighttime dreams
will do their best
to keep us "on the beam,"
doing what we do best
and enjoy most,
in the service of our original nature
and innate virtuosities.

And, all we have to do 
is pay attention.

Paying attention is knowing what we know
and doing what needs to be done about it.

This is not hard.

It is merely paying attention.

Jon Kabat Zinn's Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction
videos on YouTube
will help you pay attention
if you need help paying attention.

And daily practice with focus on
our felt sense,
intuition
and our nighttime dreams
will center in our life's need of us
through every situation as it arises,
all our life long.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.

    1. I so enjoyed walking through/being in scenes like this, and they all were changing so fast, blending into another, flowing quickly with the light. And now I can linger with the photograph for as long as I want to. It is a nice place to be.
