I’ve been realizing lately how life is too short and too precious to get down on ourselves, I think I’m just going to fully enjoy life’s beauty and have faith that life, love, and light will find their way forward. I’m out the door for a moonlit stroll, peace and love everyone!

View MoreMuch love and gratitude to everyone! Had a really good meditation on a boulder next to the branch today, reminded me that deep down I’m still the same little boy that played in the branch with my big brother, catching craw-dads. Reminded me that deep down I’m love, and that’s exactly what I should be.

View MoreMuch love and gratitude to all, want to share some thoughts after meditating a lot and reading some of Peter Matthiessen’s book ‘Nine Headed Dragon River’. I think that all of existence is something that we can enlighten ourselves with if we so choose. Nakagawa Soen-roshi elaborated: “the sun is shining, the sun is always shining! The sun is enlightenment! Everything is enlightenment!” He dabbles his finger in a water bowl, “do you hear that? That is enlightenment!” He reads his haiku: “in the midst of winter, I find in myself at last, invincible summer.”

I feel like we’re all one, and so loving all is the only righteous way for me. The challenge in my life is just to put this calling into action. I feel like I’m on a good path toward doing so much good in life, just by meditating on the oneness of all, and doing good things towards all, even if they may be small things like sharing vegetables from our garden with others or treating myself healthfully. I think we all make such a difference in life sometimes without even knowing, just from the small things we do, the good we do, even if it’s just by being a loving person. Thanks for sharing this beautiful space with me everyone, so much love and gratitude!
Happy to scroll through and see so much love and gratitude. I sometimes lose sight of my belief that life is a divine and sacred gift and I forget to celebrate and cherish it.

Some things that inspire my life are meditation, nature, Bob Marley’s music, gardening, and travel to name a few. I’d like to add more inspiration to my life and just wondering what some good ways to do so would be. Lately I’ve been considering planning a shamanic healing session in Peru or somewhere like that to deal with some of my lack of inspiration/depression that I deal with from time to time. May the spirit of love and joy infuse our lives??

View MoreDear loving community, I am grateful and full of love for you all letting me share my thoughts today. I have been shedding so many tears lately I’m surprised I have any left, thinking about the beautiful life of my cousin that was tragically cut short at age 16 due to an accidental overdose. She was full of love for life, for everyone she met. I miss her smile and sadly would have given my own life to have saved her. I get into such a space sometimes where it feels so good to think about how amazing she was yet feels so sad at the same time that I can’t help but cry. When I come out of this space I feel that love is all that matters in the end. She may be gone but her love will always remain. I love you all and thanks for sharing your love with this beautiful community. ??

View MoreJust want to reintroduce myself and express my deepest gratitude and peace and love for all of you, we’re all on different journeys in life but I believe that all things are part of one whole divine and sacred gift. I’ve heard of Buddhist monks referred to as truth seekers, I think that we here all have that character in us. Through using psychedelics in my past I have connected with divine truths that I now experience mainly through meditation. I look forward to continuing to seek deeper truths through meditation and possibly experimenting with psychedelics again, which are also a way to seek divine truths. I am joyful to be a part of this beautiful community again, I dedicate my peace and love and gratitude to all of you.

View MoreLife is far from perfect for me, and I still have a lot of growing and healing to do, but I am very lucky to be able to walk into the forest and sit and meditate whenever I need to. I’m not always in the best of spirits, but whenever I walk or meditate in the forest, my spirits always seem to get lifted! And I can tap into zazen and nature whenever I need to; so for me, inner peace and contentment may just be a sit or a walk away.
