Today’s Reflection: Repeated in response to a request –

May you practice patience, forgiveness and failing that, silence. May you ignore nonsense and provocation.  May your coffee, your resolve and your wifi be strong and may you face challenges with humour, grace and chocolate when necessary and always notice the small moments of beauty. — Bodmin Hermit

Today’s Reflection: Silence Prayer

Still the mind.

Inhale the peace.

Let go of worries.

Exhale stress.

Notice the breath.

Connect to all.

Embrace the calm.— Unknown

Today’s Reflection: Let me seek, then, the gift of silence, and solitude,
where everything I touch is turned into prayer: where the sky is my prayer,
the birds are my prayer,
the wind in the trees is my prayer,
for God is all in all.  —Thomas Merton
