It is one of the great virtues to which we all should aspire. Imagine a world filled with individuals willing both to apologize and to accept an apology.

Or perhaps you know the silence when you haven't the answer to a question you've been asked, or the hush of a country road at night, or the expectant pause of a room full of people when someone is just about to speak, or, most beautiful of all, the moment after the door closes and you're alone in the whole house? Each one is different, you know, and all very beautiful if you listen carefully.”

Tuesday, August 24th, 2021 self-reflection 26 miles meditative jog” A man must find time for himself. Time is what we spend our lives with. If we are not careful we find others spending it for us. . . . It is necessary now and then for a man to go away by himself and experience loneliness; to sit on a rock in the forest and to ask of himself, 'Who am I, and where have I been, and where am I going?' . . . If one is not careful, one allows diversions to take up one's time—the stuff of life.

Sunday, August 15th, 2021 is in the moment 26 miles meditative jog” Don't look for peace. Don't look for any other state than the one you are in now; otherwise, you will set up inner conflict and unconscious resistance. Forgive yourself for not being at peace. The moment you completely accept your non-peace, your non-peace becomes transmuted into peace. Anything you accept fully will get you there will take you into peace. This is the miracle of surrender”
Eckhart Tolle
Friday, August 13th, 2021 consciousness 26 miles meditative jog” There has been more bloodshed in the name of God than for any other cause. And it is all because people never attempt to reach the fountainhead. They are content only to comply with the customs of their forefathers and instructions on some books and want others to do the same. But, to explain God after merely reading the scriptures is like explaining the city of New York after seeing it only in a map.”
Abhijit Naskar
Thursday, August 12th, 2021 realization 26 miles meditative jog” Detachment is not the absence of emotion, it is the process of becoming one with the Oneness that is the Universe. To be detached is to realize that the fullness of all there is, is too much to react to with just one emotion, one thought, or any bias. To be detached is to acknowledge all, without owning any of it. To be detached is to summon forth the whole entirety of understanding, to the fragment that is the void.”

When there's a big disappointment, we don't know if that's the end of the story. It may just be the beginning of a great adventure. Life is like that. We don't know anything. We call something bad; we call it good. But we just don't know.”
Pema Chödrön
Wednesday, August 4th, 2021 going with the flow 26 miles meditative jog” Beliefs are limitations of vision and prisons of the mind. We believe too much and feel too little. Only when we follow our feelings, instead of denying them, will we break the grip the manipulators have on so many psyches. Go with the flow without fear of what others will think. The most powerful way to set ourselves free of the thinking, believing, fearing, intellect, is to celebrate our uniqueness, allow everyone else to do the same, and never seek to impose what we believe on another.”
David Icke

Friday, July 30th, 2021 self-reflection 26 miles meditative jog” Self-transformation commences with a period of self-questioning. Questions lead to more questions, bewilderment leads to discoveries, and growing personal awareness leads to transformation in how a person lives. Purposeful modification of the self only commences with revising our mind’s internal functions. Revamped internal functions eventually alter how we view our external environment.”

Tuesday, June 8th, 2021 peace 26 miles meditative jog” Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible. We all wish for world peace, but world peace will never be achieved unless we first establish peace within our minds. We can send so-called 'peacekeeping forces' into areas of conflict, but peace cannot be opposed from the outside with guns. Only by creating peace within our mind and helping others to do the same can we hope to achieve peace in this world.”

Saturday, June 5th, 2021 stillness 26 miles meditative jog” Your duty is to be and not to be this or that. 'I am that I am' sums up the whole truth. The method is summed up in the words 'Be still'. What does stillness mean? It means destroy yourself. Because any form or shape is the cause for trouble. Give up the notion that 'I am so and so'. All that is required to realize the Self is to be still. What can be easier than that?
Ramana Maharshi
Thursday, June 3rd, 2021 compassion 26 miles meditative jog” One of the most spiritual things you can do is embrace your humanity. Connect with those around you today.

James Baraz
Saturday, May 29th, 2021 self-control 26 miles meditative jog” What we call our destiny is truly our character and that character can be altered. The knowledge that we are responsible for our actions and attitudes does not need to be discouraging, because it also means that we are free to change this destiny. One is not in bondage to the past, which has shaped our feelings, to race, inheritance, background. All this can be altered if we dare to examine how it formed us. We can alter the chemistry provided we dare to dissect the elements.”

Thursday, May 27th, 2021 isolation 26 miles meditative jogs” If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is a gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”

Tuesday, May 25th, 2021 mindfulness 26 miles meditative jog” Feelings, whether of compassion or irritation, should be welcomed, recognized, and treated on an equal basis; because both are ourselves. The tangerine I am eating is me. The mustard greens I am planting are me. I plant with all my heart and mind. I clean this teapot with the kind of attention I would have been giving the baby Buddha or Jesus a bath. Nothing should be treated more carefully than anything else. In mindfulness, compassion, irritation, mustard green plant, and teapot are all sacred.”

Monday, May 17th, 2021 mindfulness 27 miles meditative jog” People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth.

We are here to encompass the world with love and light.”

Charles F. Glassman
Sunday, May 2nd, 2021 self-acceptance 29 miles meditative jog” Because one believes in oneself, one doesn't try to convince others. Because one is content with oneself, one doesn't need others' approval. Because one accepts oneself, the whole world accepts him or her.”
Lao Tzu
Saturday, May 1st, 2021 new beginning 26 miles meditative jog” Letting there be room for not knowing is the most important thing of all. When there's a big disappointment, we don't know if that's the end of the story. It may just be the beginning of a great adventure. Life is like that. We don't know anything. We call something bad; we call it good. But we just don't know.”

Thursday, April 29th 27 miles meditative jog” We all have blind spots – those areas for improvement and growth. As painful as it can be to admit we’re doing things we never wanted to do and saying things we never wanted to say, it is this acknowledgment that enables us to take the first step toward change. Be gentle with yourself. Be real with yourself. Take baby steps.”
Rhonda Louise Robbins

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Friday, April 23rd, 2021 self-discovery 27 miles meditative jog” The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our image. If in loving them we do not love what they are, but only their potential likeness to ourselves, then we do not love them: we only love the reflection of ourselves we find in them.”
Thomas Merton
Thursday, April 22nd, 2021 mental toughness 27 miles meditative jog” Persons of high self-esteem are not driven to make themselves superior to others; they do not seek to prove their value by measuring themselves against a comparative standard.

Tsoknyi Rinpoche
Saturday, April 17th, 2021 spiritual consciousness 27 miles meditative jog” Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light‐years and the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual. So are our emotions in the presence of great art or music or literature, or acts of exemplary selfless courage such as those of Mohandas Gandhi or Martin Luther King, Jr. The notion that science and spirituality are somehow mutually exclusive does a disservice to both.”
Carl Sagan
Friday, April 16th, 2021 consciousness 28 miles meditative jog” This journey of life, as a human being, is challenging.

Leo Buscaglia
Tuesday, April 13th, 2021 slow down 27 miles meditative jog” Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible. We all wish for world peace, but world peace will never be achieved unless we first establish peace within our minds. We can send so-called 'peacekeeping forces' into areas of conflict, but peace cannot be opposed from the outside with guns. Only by creating peace within our minds and helping others to do the same can we hope to achieve peace in this world.”
Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
Monday, April 12th, 2021 faith 27 miles meditative jog” I have come to accept the feeling of not knowing where I am going. And I have trained myself to love it. Because it is only when we are suspended in mid-air with no landing in sight, that we force our wings to unravel and alas begin our flight. And as we fly, we still may not know where we are going. But the miracle is in the unfolding of the wings. You may not know where you're going, but you know that so long as you spread your wings, the winds will carry you.”
C. JoyBell C.

Saturday, April 10th, 2021 self-conscious 27 miles meditative jog” God is not simply other than our knowledge of Him. It is through God and God alone that we know God. Descartes elaborates this in this way: We know God because he left a mark of Himself in us; this mark is nothing other than our self-consciousness. Knowing God through this mark of His, we know God in every act of reason.”
Sebastian Rödl

Monday, March 29th, 2021 full moon 18 miles meditative jog” The moon is a loyal companion. It never leaves. It’s always there, watching, steadfast, knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever just as we do. Every day it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full of light. The moon understands what it means to be human.”
Uncertain. Alone. Cratered by imperfections.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Frances Hodgson Burnett
Monday, March 22nd, 2021 none judgment 18 miles meditative jog” Meditation has countless benefits from better health to increased focus to a deeper sense of calm - but the biggie is the ability to respond instead of reacting to your impulses and urges. In meditation, instead of succumbing to deeply rooted habits of the mind like desire & aversion, you simply watch what comes up in your head non-judgementally.
Dan Harris

Thursday, March 18th, 2021 18 miles meditative jog” Touch your inner space, which is nothingness, as silent and empty as the sky; it is your inner sky. Once you settle down in your inner sky, you have come home, and a great maturity arises in your actions, in your behavior. Then whatever you do has grace in it. Then whatever you do is a poetry in itself. You live poetry; your walking becomes dancing, your silence becomes music.”
Osho
Wednesday, March 17th, 2021 seating still 23 miles meditative jog” Your duty is to be and not to be this or that. 'I am that I am' sums up the whole truth. The method is summed up in the words 'Be still'. What does stillness mean? It means destroy yourself. Because any form or shape is the cause for trouble. Give up the notion that 'I am so and so'. All that is required to realize the Self is to be still. What can be easier than that?”
Ramana Maharshi
Tuesday, March 16 2021 18 miles meditative jog” The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That’s all there ever is.”

Monday, March 15th, 2021 letting go 19 miles meditative jog” We can't be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something good for you now, maybe the very reason why you don't have something better.”

Amit Ray
Wednesday, March 10 2021 taking responsibility for my actions 18 miles meditative jog” What we call our destiny is truly our character and that character can be altered. The knowledge that we are responsible for our actions and attitudes does not need to be discouraging, because it also means that we are free to change this destiny. One is not in bondage to the past, which has shaped our feelings, to race, inheritance, background. All this can be altered if we dare to examine how it formed us. We can alter the chemistry provided we dare to dissect the elements.”
Anais Nin

Sunday, March 7th, 2021 isolation 20 miles meditative jog” If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is a gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”
Charles Bukowski
Thursday, March 4th, 2021 inner voice 18 miles meditative jog” You are one thing only. You are a Divine Being. An all-powerful Creator. You are a Deity in jeans and a t-shirt, and within you dwells the infinite wisdom of the ages and the sacred creative force of All that is, will be and ever was.”
Anthon St. Maarten
Tuesday, March 2nd, 2021 mind control 18 miles meditative jog” We have to train our mind to see the good in everything, the positive. If you fight with a family member, there is something to learn from it, but you may have to find what it is that you have to learn from that experience. You have to exercise your mind to do that. As the thought energy flows into our mind, we decide what we are going to think.”
Itayi Garande
Monday, March 1st, 2021 self-love 18 miles meditative jog” Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn't have the time to sit around and talk about you. What's important to me is not others' opinions of me, but what's important to me is my opinion of myself.”
C. JoyBell C.

Wednesday, February 17th, 2021 water 20 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. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing, in the end, can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.
Margaret Atwood
