compassion

Wednesday July 29 2020 compassion 13 miles meditative jog,"Adventure begins with you, personally. It is in the way you look at things. It is the mental stance you take as you face your day.

The attitude of adventure will open things up for you. The world will become alive with new zest and meaning. You'll become more aware of the beauty everywhere. Nothing will seem unimportant. Everything will be revealed as having pattern and purpose."Wilferd Peterson

Taking my time

Sunday July 26, 2020 taking my time 26 miles meditative jog"Just that dwelling and planning is bullshit, you dwell on the past, you can’t move forward. Spend too much time planning for the future and you just push yourself backwards, or you stay stagnant in the same place all your life.

J.A. Redmerski

wisdom

Friday July 24 2020 wisdom 13 miles meditative jog,"Enlightenment is man’s leaving his self-caused immaturity. Immaturity is the incapacity to use one’s intelligence without the guidance of another.

Have the courage to use your own intelligence! is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."
Immanuel Kant

patance

Sunday July 19 2020 patience 27 miles meditative jog,“Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you.

If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.”
Margaret Atwood

life

Friday July 17 2020 life 13 miles meditative jog,“To choose not to be part of a team or religion does not make me non-religious; for my religion is Truth and I am very much in love with God. I do not need to align myself with a specific messenger if I already understand God’s message. And the way I think is not considered ‘New Age’, since common sense is not new. So long as you act and speak with love and truth in you, and are good to your fellow man — in that you treat everybody as you would want yourself to be treated, your heart will stand by God regardless of the label you have assigned to your mind.”
Suzy Kassem

seeking

Monday July 6, 2020 seeking wisdom 13 miles meditative jog,“Those who know don’t talk. Those who talk don’t know.
