i don't like posting anything negative bc our tl is flooded. however i just read about an 11 year old girl in texas committed suicide bc she was bullied about her immigrant status.
all those, including the school are complicit. it is so sad and all i can do is pray for her, her family, and all others going through that.
offering my meditations and prayers to the world. we need it. blessings to all and stay safe. 😢🙏🏼

@bmacDonald94 Good nite, Bill.

Love 💞

I took some of my plants out a couple of days ago since it has been warmer and sunny. (40-50s). Today, i found this little pink vinca putting a good fight against the wind. 💖 Hey, if the tiny bloom can do it, so can we!
Love you! ❤️🌟💫🕊️💞🪷

3 "I am lonely," Ganesha replied. "I have tried everything to find my companions, but I have failed."
The turtle swam in silence for a moment, then said, "You have searched far and long, but you have not searched in your heart.
Loneliness is not the absence of company, but the absence of con-nection. Connect with the world around you, with the trees, the water, the wind and the stars. Connect with yourself, your breath, your thoughts, your feelings. You will find that you are never truly alone."

2 But despite his efforts, he could not find his companions anywhere.
After many months of wandering, Ganesha came to rest by a quiet lake. He was exhausted and discouraged. He sat on the shore of the lake and stared at his reflection in the clear water. He was alone and sad.
But at that moment he noticed a movement in the water. A turtle emerged from the depths and swam over to him. It looked up at Ganesha and said, "Why are you so sad, great elephant?"

1. The Journey of the lone Elephant
Long ago, in the dense forests of shr lanka was a handsome elephant named Ganesha. Ganesha was strong and proud, but despite his power and strength, he was lonely. His companions had left the forest to wander to other lands, and he was left alone. One day, Ganesha decided to go on a journey to find his companions and end his loneliness. He packed his few belongings & began his journey, which took him through dense forests, over high mountains and rivers.

4 Ganesha listened to the turtle's words and began to really focus on his surroundings. He noticed the wind blowing through the leaves of the trees, the gentle waves crashing against the shore, the stars twinkling in the sky. He noticed his breath going in and out slowly and steadily, his thoughts and feelings coming and going like clouds in the sky.
In this deep connection with himself and the world around him, Ganesha realized that he was never really alone.
