Entering the Dark Season
Each year we share this meditation poem written by Twinkle in 2013.
May we find comfort in the warm embrace of the dark season.
The Dark Season
We are at the threshold of the Seasons,
the doorway to the Year,
when the Veil is thin,
and time passes amorphously.
We turn inward as the Darkness beckons us.
We welcome the warmth of the fire,
contemplating the mysteries of the Unseen.
We honor the soft ache in our hearts
for those we have lost:
the people,
the dreams.
And we rest.
For rest we must, to heal.
This is the cycle of death and rebirth;
release and renewal.
We cherish this time
as the lessons it offers
penetrate our knowing.
May we breathe in wisdom
and breathe out patience.

Regarding Gossip
A reminder that is timely and important. Gossip and slander causes suffering. It is both what is said and what is unsaid. Yes, silent solidarity of Gossiping causes suffering to the person being gossiped about. #TaraBrach
Embrace and be embraced by Grace.
