As Is



Musing….
“Enough is abundance to the wise.”––Euripides


Charise’s Turn:
As we are coming around to the close of 2019, certain expectations have to fall by the wayside. Whatever has been accomplished or set into motion will have to be enough. Not only is this okay, this is a chance to accept everything as is.  And when we can do that, we are living from a place of presence rather than absence (of what could be). We are also giving import to another year of living, making, dreaming, caring, changing. All our experiences have brought us to this moment. 





Here are some of my experiences that highlight 2019: 
~Celebrating my father’s 90th birthday 
~Traveling in Italy with my eldest daughter
~Hosting a poetry tent at an arts festival
~Giving a poetry performance on a streetcar
~Meeting Kate, our fellow muser, in person for the first time

Some things didn't materialize or go as planned, and to this I say, "so what?" There's richness in sitting with everything as is. In truth, it's a happy place. 

“In the end, our intention is more important than anything we do.” – Adyashanti
