When impermanence knocks at your door you’d better be prepared to open up and let her in, she’ll just kick it down anyway if you don’t. #zen

Wishing for the sound of rain on my window as I surrender to the gentle drowsiness of sleep. Good night.

All our problems and tragedies stem from our not realizing life is but a big practical joke and we happen to be the punchline. #life #zen

A rock and a hard place can only crush you when you are too solid, if you flow like water you’ll simply slip thru the cracks. #zen #life

Life is but a constant flow of change, it’s only our lack of attention that creates the illusion of permanence and stability. #zen #life

Being here and being there,
Lights and shadows burning bright.
Memories of times gone by
Swiftly roll by in my mind.

A moment of anger is the tip of a very slippery slope, if you don’t back away in time you are sure to hurt yourself and others badly. #zen

Enjoying the gentle purring of our cats cuddling beside us in a lazy Sunday morning.

Like tumbleweed in a barren land,
Our hopes and dreams forever roll,
Pushed without rest by the winds
Of our myriad wants and fears. #zen
