May The Gentle

A L O H A  From

H O N O L U L U


One individual who
vibrates to the energy
of pure love will
counterbalance the
negativity of 750,000
who do not.
Dr. David Hawkins



In a world gone mad 
spiraling with so much noise, 
fear, and division, the 
greatest revolution is to 
stay anchored in love.
Not passive, spiritual, by-passy, 
head-in-the-sand “love”, 
but love that sees darkness, 
feels compassion for suffering, 
and chooses to shine anyway.
Aubert Bastiat





All of humanity's problems 
stem from peoples' inability 
to sit quietly 
in a room alone. 
   Blaise Pascal, 
17th-century French philosopher, 
mathematician, and writer. 
This appears in his work Pensées



May the gentle hush
Of evening 
Cradle your thoughts
In peace, 
And may the stars above 
Guide you on
To sweet release.

Rest well, wrapped
In serenity, 
Until the dawn
Brings light
Unto infinity.
   Cloudia Charters

What a beautiful trio of reflections—a reminder that in the face of chaos, the quiet strength of conscious, compassionate love can be both a radical act and a luminous guide

...may the gentle inherit the earth.

I like the fraction of one vs 750,000 for pure love. All the people working for a peaceful resolution to the many conflicts should counter-balance negative energy pretty well.

I can sit quietly in a room, alone, bt I need to be doing something like reading Comfort Spiral, for example. 😄

We have noticed it is not possible to just sit and do nothing. Society today frowns on those who are not busy doing something every waking minute. We need to slow down, take in life, and enjoy. Great post.
