“Understanding that the ordinary is the miracle changes our fundamental stance and disposition. Life is no longer a problem to be solved but a mystery in which we may participate fully.” – Sam Keen: Hymns to an Unknown God

The honesty of precision and the goodheartedness of gentleness are qualities of making friends with yourself… As you work with being really faithful to the technique and being as precise as you can and simultaneously as kind as you can, the ability to let go seems to happen to you. The discovery of your ability to let go spontaneously arises; you don’t force it. You shouldn’t be forcing accuracy or gentleness either, but while you could make a project out of accuracy, you could make a project out of gentleness, it’s hard to make a project out of letting go. – Pema Chodron

More often than not it seems as though I have way too much on my plate. School, work, family, take up a lot of my time and goals I have set for myself often become stressful tasks to work through. In these times I know I need to step back and give myself the time to accomplish my goals and recognize that I can only do so much in a day…
“In seeking to accomplish my goals, I take one goal at a time and one day at a time. In seeking to accomplish my goals, I try not set too many goal in front of myself or strive too far beyond my physical and emotional means. In seeking to accomplish goals, I realize that I am Human and can only do so much each day. I recognize that the key to achieving my goals is to set them in a reality based time frame and give myself time to not only accomplish my goals but also to enjoy my life.” – Pamela J. Leavey
Accomplishing goals are about seizing the opportunity to get things done, rather than procrastinating.

There are times in life when my level of acceptance is tested. In those times, I need to dig deeply into my heart and mind, and view a situation or relationship by stepping back asking myself some critical questions. Because, in my opinion, my spirituality depends on my ability to ask myself critical questions about the context of an issue, so that I may come to a conclusion that embodies acceptance.
Acceptance is key to living in peace and harmony with all things and all persons. To achieve acceptance is not always easy. However, with practice and patience, I am able to put away my judgments and achieve acceptance. – Pamela J. Leavey
Introspection and reflection fuel my spiritual practice and are necessary facets of finding acceptance in my heart and mind.
