Heaven is not somewhere above, rather inside deep in your soul. To get there you must work hard, real hard. -- Unknown

Another great moment from @adicarter's @redefiningbalance retreat. This photo shoot was an all nighter and some tempers did flare. Overall though the art we made was worth it. Long live Moab!!!

Góc phố đã biết có những bước chân người qua

Nhưng sao nay bơ vơ em có nơi nào về lại lúc xưa

Đưa đôi chân đi quên mau cơn đau mang theo sau nỗi nhớ

Vì đã lỡ phá tan ước mơ...

Sau 2 năm qua đi nơi đó em luôn vẫn còn

Vì sao anh mang nhiều đớn đau em vẫn yêu vẫn mong chờ từng, ngày

Mặc dù (mặc dù) anh vẫn chưa quên đi người đó

Sorry,sorry when i love her, i hurt you....

“It takes courage...to endure the sharp pains of self discovery rather than choose to take the dull pain of unconsciousness that would last the rest of our lives.” ― Marianne Williamson

Looking back at the experience of getting the chance to high line with the Christchurch community. While this specific line is more of a midline, it did it's job of bringing doubt and the sense of fear to me, the Christchurch community member shown in this image, and probably most individuals attempting to balance on the line. I'm not quite sure exactly what self discovery has been accelerated by attempting to high line, however, putting myself out on these high lines has made pretty much ever other fear I've faced seem so much easy to handle in the moment.

The creative process is not like a situation where you get struck by a single lightning bolt. You have ongoing discoveries, and there's ongoing creative revelations. Yes, it's really helpful to be marching toward a specific destination, but, along the way, you must allow yourself room for your ideas to blossom, take root, and grow. -- Carlton Cuse

Acro, Lightning and Pellet Guns OH MY!!!

We decided that it would be fun to do some acro in the rain and lightning. One of my neighbors decided it would be fun to shot the people doing acro with pellet guns. She was shot in the butt and I was shot in the bicep. I guess adventure means different things to different people, and where they are on their path.

The shot turned out great, but not worth having one of my eyes taken out!!! And here we were worried that we might be hit by lightning.

The Invitation

Oriah Mountain Dreamer, Indian elder

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living.

I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.

It doesn't interest me how old you are.

I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dreams, for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon.

I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with the pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, or remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me is true.

I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself; if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. I want to know if you can see beauty even when it is not pretty every day, and if you can source your life from God's presence. I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand on the edge of a lake and shout to the silver moon, "Yes!"

It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have.

I want to know if you can get up after a night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done for the children.

It doesn't interest me who you are or how you came to be here.

I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back.

It doesn't interest me where or what or whom you have studied.

I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone with yourself, and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

----

Reflecting back on my time spent with some amazing people out in Hawaii. Here is one moment during the time that I cherished being alone, making art and finding peace. Harman Arora

BE STRONG......~!!!

Are you swimming upstream in oceans of blue?

Do you feel like your sinking?

Are you sick of the rain after all you've been through?

Well I know what you're thinking

When you can't take it

You can make it

Sometime soon I know you'll see

'Only those fail to fight against evil who are part of evil.' - His Holiness Younus AlGohar

The Journey

One day you finally knew

what you had to do, and began,

though the voices around you

kept shouting

their bad advice--

though the whole house

began to tremble

and you felt the old tug

at your ankles.

"Mend my life!"

each voice cried.

But you didn't stop.

You knew what you had to do,

though the wind pried

with its stiff fingers

at the very foundations,

though their melancholy

was terrible.

It was already late

enough, and a wild night,

and the road full of fallen

branches and stones.

But little by little,

as you left their voices behind,

the stars began to burn

through the sheets of clouds,

and there was a new voice

which you slowly

recognized as your own,

that kept you company

as you strode deeper and deeper

into the world,

determined to do

the only thing you could do--

determined to save

the only life you could save.

Mary Oliver

Thank you Vanessa Sandvig DeHart for sharing the soulful poem and Gillian St Clair for sharing your alluring yoga practice and art!
