Truth is the torch that gleams through the fog without dispelling it.

This is sheer poetry.

So still with anticipation; hope just beyond the horizon. Insight must live here.

i think it is important to remember that the light of the soul can shine through us in spite of our imperfections. Just a thought which hit me in the day or so since posting this. We all struggle, no matter where we find ourselves on this path called life.

Oh, Susan. This one just took my breath away. Awesome.

This is cool. Truth in us. To be able to sit in mindful breathing as the fog of inner judgment and the delusional judgment of the other's other (that is what we think others judge of us). It is truely wondrous to sit and see the fog as it is and to see ourselves without any judgment is absolute joy and a glimpse of nirvana. It is so great to come to this place of peaceful awareness.
