let's begin

.
Here's to
JOY.

And to moving forward.


Here's to letting go.

(of expectation, of outcomes, of the past. Of as much Stuff as you can)


Here's to living what is,

which is not always what you plan, or dream of, or wish for

but surprises you sometimes

with how very beautiful and true it can be.



Here's to beginnings.

To the rest of Now.

1. 11. 11

Here's to moving on.

Into clarity,

into light.


Into
LOVE.
Love.

Love.



Love without end.




'The greatest degree of inner tranquility comes from the development of love and compassion'

H.H. the fourteenth Dalai Lama

  5. What an unbelievable 1.1.11 I didn't even think of that. I am set on 11.11.11 ;) Love the pictures. What is that in picture 3? I love the moonlight over the water and the kids jumping with joy!

  6. Yay!! I just wanted to jump for joy with you and give you a hug at the end of this post! Loving all the love :).
    It was so cool to write 11.1.11 on paper yesterday--realized purely by accident--but we made wishes of course!
    HUGS!!!
    xoxo
