Accept with understanding and kindness that which is freely offered.
A compliment or criticism. A portion. Less than ones expectations of others. Offer what one can in return.
Try to act sensibly, especially when vulnerable.
There are times when a firm resolve by itself may not be quite enough. Yielding in part so that progress can be made towards the larger goal will suffice. Find a practical, healthier, ..., alternative, even while progressing towards ones dreams.

Try to start the day right, even if it is an uphill battle from there.
And go for it again. And again.

Simplify or classify for understanding after prioritizing.
Invariably, following a grouping, the richness of individual detail is lost, but not entirely if the parts create a larger picture which offers clarity at another level or the ability to be handled effectively.

Chirping birds, an orchestra.
Such a melodious way to start off each new day. The flowering buds, a masterpiece theater. Being perfected by nature, time and circumstance. As are we.

Feel compassion well up.
The human condition, the inevitability of events, the flow of time. Compassion connecting us. And isolating us.

The wish for something new grows wild ...
..., left unchecked enticing the senses, unless met with love.

Kindness, ...
... reaching out to others when accompanied by a growing understanding of being in someone else's position, makes us as one. Reaching back into one's own thoughts, stepping the same events with older, gentler, eyes. Perhaps growing wiser too, using the part lens and part mirror of time.

Steer the conversation to a gentler place.
To be more about interests leading into learning experiences, inspiration, insights, shared solutions, laughter.

Soft grasses grow where once stood a fiery volcano.
Over time rainforests turn to deserts, and ocean beds to mountain tops. Change is always upon us, clearer to see in the spring and fall, the changing seasons offering a time for renewal, of growth and discovery. Seek the promise beneath the rocky exterior, the potential that everyone, especially those in the process of discovering their talents have. Help it bloom.

What thoughts and feelings encircle us when the world around sleeps.
And in surprising contrast how much of ones waking hours are spent over things that aren't even there at the close of the day.

Respond with understanding, with acceptance.
And work to make the changes we can, with the understanding and acceptance that the outcome isn't entirely in our control.

That which makes us vulnerable, leaves us helpless, ...
... can also show us what we must not be or do ourselves.

Exploring the unknown.
What will make most everything seem like minutia. Seeking the depths of the ocean or the expanse of space, has nothing on the mysteries we hold within us yet to be revealed. Reach inside to reach beyond.

Breath is a constant companion.
That which accompanies us through time. Drink of it deeply when one can.

Seek contentment.
Content in knowing that we are and will make the changes needed to make ourselves better persons, and this a better world as well.

Is paradise a destination, or just another experience, ...
... and what does this say about any other state one has experienced, is in, or may experience some day.
