Scrito bandito
Sometimes I think I look for a way things are done kind of answer for my own lack of confidence etc.. but I think I get now that we all have things in life we need to take care of. How we do that is just our way of individually doing those life affirming benchmarks.
Sending peace and inspiration!

Everyone is on their own journey. I like to look for the common denominators in all that hubbub rather than look to be special or something. Even if someone’s experience is less conmon, there are still many ways all things connect.
perhaps the distinction to meditate upon is the diff between shopping for clear, simple and absolute rules and inspiration on how to grow as the unique individual you are. perhaps. just attempting to inspire.
my 2 foster daughters are my most recent inspiration down this line of meditation. the elder sister (6) has an extremely sensitive and artistic nature. she startles fearfully at just about every unexpected event in life. i spend allot of time doing breathing/calming exercises with her. the 3 year old has a warrior nature and has to study up on the fact that sometimes you SHOULD be afraid. let go of that bull's horns, sweetie.
we learn by imitation. baby sis adores her big sis and at 3 years old, imitates her in everything. however technically perfect the imitation, baby sis's startle reactions just make me laugh. ain't you just the cutest. where did you leave that bull's horns? he needs them to impress his ladies.
may the both bloom into the unique and beautiful flowers nature intended them to be. may the bond between them provide inspiration and learning opportunities enough to last for two rich and glorious lifetimes.
Thanks Nikki and Arfie!!
