Thanks to everyone for the gifts I received during the Abundance weekend. Here are a few of these gifts:

Confirmation -- that I'm "getting it"
Support -- for my chosen path
Energy -- from a roomful of like-minded beings
Validation -- for my edgy imagination
Direction -- for my next steps
Abundant laughter and humor, light and love -- for many lifetimes

I think the Universe just tickled me...

I was reminded of a David Ladinski translation of a poem by Tukaram (c.1608-1649) called "Landlocked in Fur".

I was meditating with my cat the other day
and all of a sudden she shouted,
"What happened?"

I knew exactly what she meant, but encouraged her to say more -- feeling that if she got it all out on the table she would sleep better that night.

So I responded, "Tell me more, dear,"
and she soulfully meowed,

"Well, I was mingled with the sky and now look --
I am landlocked in fur."

To this I said, "I know exactly what you mean."

What to say about a conversation
between
mystics?
