Earth Teach Me

January 1, 2019 by Nancy Lankston Leave a Comment

Earth, Teach Me to Remember

Earth, teach me stillness
as the grasses are stilled with light.

Earth, teach me suffering
as old stones suffer with memory.

Earth, teach me humility
as blossoms are humble with beginning.

Earth, teach me caring
as the mother who secures her young.

Earth, teach me courage
as the tree which stands alone.

Earth, teach me limitation
as the ant which crawls on the ground.

Earth, teach me freedom
as the eagle which soars in the sky.

Earth, teach me resignation
as the leaves which die in the fall.

Earth, teach me regeneration
as the seed which rises in the spring.

Earth, teach me to forget myself
as melted snow forgets its life.

Earth, teach me to remember kindness
as dry fields weep in the rain.

~A prayer from the North American Ute tribe

Love What Is

December 21, 2018 by Nancy Lankston Leave a Comment

Today’s practice: Love what is.

Love the painful, prickly, knotted, difficult, pig-headed, intractable.

Love what grates on your nerves; love the sensation of grating; love the fine-tuned fretwork of your nerves.

Love the fluid, light, strong, glorious, playful, brilliant.

Love what enchants and delights you.

Love what makes your heart as soft as dawn, as wide as the sky.

Love fierce and tender, peaceful and wrathful.

Love muscular, flexible, powerful. Love birth and death in all creation.

Nothing changes without love.

The true nature of all things is love — everything opens into the fullness of its being in the light of love.

If you want a kinder, more just world, or a kinder world inside your own heart and belly, love what is, today.

A Philosophy of Kindness

July 30, 2018 by Nancy Lankston Leave a Comment

Kindness deepens the spirit and produces rewards
that cannot be completely explained in words.
It is an experience more powerful than words.

To become acquainted with kindness one must be prepared
to learn new things and feel new feelings.
Kindness is more than a philosophy of the mind.
It is a philosophy of the spirit.

~Robert J. Furey
