It is as if all the ends of your brain, nerve endings and senses are fired up when you liberate your mind.

Y5 – Day 109 – Time
I remember growing up on the beaches of Long Island and time stopped as I idly played in the sun – the wet sand and glossy pebbles, hot between my toes. The shore lapping.
Time was still. Joy was mine.
The smell of sultry, humid heat peppered with salty seaweed baking on the beach. The warmth and taste of the briny water.
Seagulls squawking. Horseshoe crabs aground and dying on the shore. Fiddler crabs popping out of holes.
Wildlife scurrying amongst the brush on the dunes by the worn redwood fences. The grasses and reeds rustling. A summer breeze wafting through a corridor of beach below a cliff.
I wake up. I’m startled.
Time is just a blip – yet a continuum. But, only as long as it is held in your mind.
Y5 – Day 108 – Creativity
Creativity is not just freeing your thoughts but also about making connections.
Y5 – Day 107 – Holy Friends
Our recent and long-term friendships keep us balanced, grounded and rejuvenated. Healthy relationships are holy alliances.
Y5 – Day 106 – small celebrations
It is heaven on earth to give and receive small celebrations, such as smiles, courtesies and embraces. They soothe and comfort us. It’s the tiny details, our loved ones’ voices that gladden and reassure.
Y5 – Day 105 – Reading
Imagination is lit and satisfies as we are lost in another’s space and time as readers.
READ today – anything- but hopefully something soul satisfying and healing.
Y5 – Day 104 – Resolution
Check in with your soul, stomach and brain today.
Perhaps it is easier to just have one thought a day, all day, on a daily basis in order to uphold a lofty resolution.
Y5 – Day 103 – Happy New Year 2018!
Welcome 2018, welcome.
Gratitude, gratitude, gratitude.
Y5 – Day 102 – Selfies
Here are three SELFies:
1. Self – respect – it trains us to stay on our own path. It disciplines us to stay right-sized and in our own lane.
2. Self – care – it nurtures us into finding our purpose. It balances our decisions. We move towards our goals with passion.
3. Self – reflection – it reveals us to ourselves. Via quiet, intimate, meditative and solitary moments, we attain insight.
Ironically, these three selfies deepen our relationship with nature out of doors and the external universes.
