AOM Meditations: 081816
Let us dance in the sun
wearing wild flowers in our hair
and let us huddle together
as darkness takes over.
We are home
amidst the birds and the trees
for we are children of nature.

“Singing in the rain.
I'm singing in the rain.
And it's such a fucking glorious feeling.”
~David Levithan

Life is full of beauty. Notice it.
Notice the bumble bee,
the small child, and the smiling faces.
Smell the rain, and feel the wind.
Live your life to the fullest potential,
and fight for your dreams.”

is filled with joy and happiness.
If you are attentive, you will see it.

I invite you to join me now in this short Metta Prayer
Radiating the energy of peace and love out to all living beings
Take a few deep breaths to clear your mind
And focus on the here and now
This present moment
Now
Breathe in
Filling your being with peace and love
As you begin each line, breathe out slowly
Breathing these thoughts into the world
Reading, thinking, and feeling the words with peace and love
Sending them from your heart
Giving the energy to yourself and to all living beings
Breathe in and repeat the process for each line
Radiating the energy of peace and love out to all living beings
Take a few deep breaths to clear your mind
And focus on the here and now
This present moment
Now
Breathe in
Filling your being with peace and love
As you begin each line, breathe out slowly
Breathing these thoughts into the world
Reading, thinking, and feeling the words with peace and love
Sending them from your heart
Giving the energy to yourself and to all living beings
Breathe in and repeat the process for each line
Namaste

When a new element is introduced into the mix it changes everything. Your Stressful state does not change the world because the world has a lot of it already. Adding more stress only creates more of the same. Change things through your joy, through your thriving, through your peace. Don't wait for the conditions to change in order to feel good; feel good and the conditions will change through the additions of a new element."
~Emily Maroutian

You must stop with this "I need to find my other half" nonsense. You are complete. You are whole. YOU are the other half you are looking for. Until you love and believe in yourself, no love from any other man or woman, certain career, or amount of money will be enough.

MUSIC: "Pelo Tempo Que Durar (As Long as it Goes)" by Marisa Monte
SO SOOTHINGLY GORGEOUS!!!
If you watched the Closing Ceremonies of the Olympics
This is the song Mariene de Castro sang
As they extinguished the Olympic Flame
It took a lot of searching but I finally found the song
~*~
Lyrics: (English Translation)
(I think the translation might be a bit fuzzy)
Nothing will remain
The way it is now
I'm thinking of meeting you
I just want to see you
Glaciers will be melting
Stars will be fading away
And here I am, thinking of you
As long as it goes
Things are going to change
And then going to disappear
And here I am, thinking of keeping
As life rushes through you
And I'm thinking of spending
My whole life with you
The way it is now
I'm thinking of meeting you
I just want to see you
Glaciers will be melting
Stars will be fading away
And here I am, thinking of you
As long as it goes
Things are going to change
And then going to disappear
And here I am, thinking of keeping
As life rushes through you
And I'm thinking of spending
My whole life with you

Thanks to our Friend for sending us this beautiful art and quote

Thanks to our Friend for sending us this beautiful art and quote
~*~
"One of my friend's identity is closely tied to his youthful, handsome appearance, which in naturally fading over time. Skyler is very upset about this because he always associated his worth and value with his good looks, even though he is also an accomplished doctor, a wonderful father, and a good friend.
We must be very mindful about what we hold of the highest value or base our self-worth on.
Another friend of mine (Veronica) spent ten years identifying as a wonderful wife, only to lose her sense of worth after a divorce because she somehow forgot about everything else she still is.
I am a lot of things and not one of them defines me. As I also age like everyone else and start losing the vertical that used to help me excel in volleyball, for example, and my kneecaps no longer support lateral movement on the tennis court, I am grateful for all the years I already had while I look forward to what doors are going to open now that I can't walk through old ones anymore.
This is why letting go is so liberating. We can look at our past jobs, relationships, youthful hair and skin, agility and even ability and think, "That was fun!" and let them go. Age gracefully, leave peacefully, and live happily. Not despite everything being impermanent, but because it is!
Your brother on this journey, Timber Hawkeye."

Hey Sweetie,
Happy Monday!!!
Well, I'm a little bit sad today
Because the Summer Games are over
It is the same feeling I get when the party is over
Or when good Friends leave to go elsewhere
Or when I finish reading a book and
All the characters I had come to love go away
And so now that the games over, I will miss them
But
As one of my favorite quotes says
"Don't cry because it's over
Smile because it happened"
: )
I was again a man obsessed!
(or passionate : )
I had to find out the name of the song
That was sung as they extinguished the Olympic Flame
Whew! What a chore!
Finally, I found one newspaper that mentioned it
So that is today's music
Such a Lovely Song!
I wish you a most beautiful day
Peace and Love,
AOM
