BE the Calm Lagoon

A  L  O  H  A !
“You don’t need to be 
the tide to rise and fall, 
you don’t have to be a 
wave to touch the shore; 
just be a little sand-grain 
and feel them all” 
                      Munia Khan









“Be calm...
calm as a calm lagoon, 
then you will look beautiful 
as a beautiful calm lagoon 
crowned by the Moon and sheltered
 by the brilliance of the stars 
reclaiming your royalty 
of regal life...” 
                 Oksana Rus







"You don’t have to 
control your thoughts. 
You just have to 
stop letting them 
control you."     
Dan Millman









"Keep calm and 
keep learning. "
        Lailah Gifty Akita

My thoughts not controlling me or me controlling them is called a nap.

these are all good words and if followed can give us peace. my problem is, I can't be a calm lagoon, I am more like a roaring wave like the big ones in Hawaii...

Charles Gramlich said...

was just reading an article about why its so hard to control one's thoughts. It was arguing that consciousness doesn't direct our minds but only arises from them. I don't completely agree but there is likely to be some truth in it
