An October Blessing

October is a time when I seem to harvest reflectiveness. In part, it is the season, Autumn where I live, when the low sun yields to longer nights. In part, it is birth month for me, which tends to bring a little extra ambling into my deeply inner. And, I’m road-tripping today, loving the acuteness of listening to vast landscapes.

This experience of human being is quite something, isn’t it.

May today be a day
that opens genuineness of heart.

With courage to let go
of that which has naturally changed, 
and no longer fits.

With clarity to live
value centered,
committed from the belly in ways big and small.

May today be a day
of conscious and kind living.

  1. my harvest for the day:

    … loving the acuteness of listening to vast landscapes. (I was in the mountains yesterday, drinking in the vastness. I LOVE these mountains!)

    … this experience of human being (umm … delicious phrasing … so much being in my life these days)

    May today be a day
    that opens genuineness of heart.
    May today be a day

    Oh, Tenneson. This is a blessing that will stay with me through this day.

    … May today be a day
    that opens genuineness of heart.

  2. Thanks for this Tenneson – really great timing for me. Especially this part:

    “With courage to let go
    of that which has naturally changed,
    and no longer fits.”
