SO we circle back around again....
Life tends to circle back around on us, biting us on the ass from behind. And so, while we think we are experiencing something new, something we are willing to take a risk for, in actuality we are riding a merry-go-round back to where we began. A vicious cycle of the same mistakes repeated or the same heartache experienced over and over since childhood. I guess, really, the only way to avoid the heart breaking pain and devastation is to step right off the merry-go-round.

Ahhhh....The great pattern, the great circle of life. How does one live within this seemingly un-ending cycle of the same mistakes, same heartbreaks over, and over again? Perhaps, with great awareness, one breath, one step at a time. I once wrote a song that touched upon this very thing....it said, " I am at the stillness of myself. Where I let go, of pain and self doubt. I am at the stillness of my soul...Where I go within, and seek shelter from the storm...in the stillness of my heart, I find light inside the dark...In the stillness of my mind, I can watch the hands of time...STOP. and be still, and you will see...That I am you, and you are me..." In the stillness, is where the answer lives. In the silence of the breath we recognize our patterns, our repeated behaviors, and we develop the the strength and awareness to recognize them, and stop them, when they show up again. It is through awareness, and deep self love, deep compassion for oneself, that transformation lives. May you live in great self awareness, and may your own inner brilliance shine as you ascend more deeply into the oneness in this great, crazy, and beautiful thing we call life....You are loved....
