Daily Meditation:

War can only be understood and put an end to if you and all those who are concerned very deeply with the survival of man, feel that you are utterly responsible for killing others. What will make you change? - J. Krishnamurti
War is hard. I am not sure why man goes to war. I believe war has been a part of man since time began. Power and control. Who has the power can it be retained. Is it up to us as individuals to speak out against that which we do not believe are we compliant. That is to say sins of omission.
When I do not do that is as much in the wrong as doing in the wrong. When I do not give thanks. When I do not express love. When I am consumed with me and do not turn to another to give comfort. Working on these things. Working to remove me from the process. Strive to become. It is not easy and I do not beat myself up. But I do try to learn from my mistakes and make corrections but many times can not live up to the expectations of others. not meeting those expectations I am not less then anymore.
How can I be that voice in the wilderness? How can I make my self known? How can I do the right thing in a world full of choices that are not right? From where do you get your strength? From where do you find solstice? From where do you renew? From where do you feed your soul?

Daily Meditation:

To be silent and meditative is so ecstatic,
you will forget all about your search for meaning, truth, God.
And once you have dropped the wrong questions,
the wrong answers disappear of their own accord.
Then between you and existence there is no question,
there is no answer, but there is a communion.
Your heart slowly slowly starts beating in the same rhythm as the whole existence.
You start feeling yourself part of this immense organic whole.
You enjoy tremendously.

Osho
I found this one on another site. It is lovely I think.
Communion is the key. I think we have to stop asking. Stop seeking. It is clutter. I do not know what to ask for. There I things I desire that is for sure. Are those the right things for me at this time? I do not know. I am learning I can not ask for these things I have to wait and see. Do not push, do not force. Just allow everything to unfold as it is meant too and everything really will be taken care.
The heart beat and rhythm of the universe. There is a sound a frequency, a wavelength that allows the heart and mind and body and soul come together. to coalesce and rise. This wave is such a wonderful thing to catch. It is the goose bumps on your arms, the hair standing on the back of the neck. Eyes dilating and mind free of distraction if only for one brief moment.
Wonderous indeed.

why do I have to shrink and go away so someone else gets to grow?"
