I’m Actually Not That Busy, Either
Hello all! I saw this post and wanted to share it. I’m coming off a several day silent retreat and this was a perfect reminder as I do re-entry. This is a a total cut and paste, I have added nothing to it. The original post from SuperHero Life, by Andrea Scher, can be found here. Enjoy 🙂 This is my new mantra: I’m actually not that busy. It doesn’t sound spiritual or like something you heard at your yoga class. It might not even feel true the first few times you say it! But it’s changing my life.

What can we say about the events in Boston? So much pain and so much suffering, in Boston and all over the world. Our hearts ache in compassion for those impacted and those working to help, in Boston and all over the globe.

Hello All! Welcome to the new Blessings Site and streamlined blog! We have had many changes, including an updated website and change in the way we do a lot of things here. More info and posts are forthcoming, I promise. In the meantime, I wanted to share a smile. During this time, when it seems as though most of the folks in suits can’t figure out how to get along and play nicely with each other, I thought perhaps an alternative perspective might be in order.
