Happy Thanksgiving!

Presence
Here is a gift. I discovered it in Martha Beck's book, Finding your Way in a Wild New World, which I love.
Hand-Sensing Exercise by Eckart Tolle, from his book A New Earth.
Close your eyes and hold out your hand.
Allow yourself to feel your hand.
Ask yourself how – without touching anything, without moving your hand and without looking at your hand – you can know that your hand is still there.
Your mind might say it knows it's there, because it was just there a minute ago.
But there is another way of knowing. You can feel the inside of your hand, a subtle sense of warmth or tingling.
This is the subtle sense of aliveness.
If your mind wanders, just return your attention to feel the sensations in your hand.
This hand sensing exercise brings your awareness to the present moment. Do this exercise whenever you can to get in touch with your inner sense of aliveness.
This inner sense of aliveness is your own conscious presence, your being-ness, the you that you really are, beneath your thinking and beyond your story.
The quality of my life has improved greatly since I began this practice a few months ago. I hope you can try it!

Amulet 1
Animals and symbols often show up in my dreams. I always ask what they mean to me, because through them, I can get to know deeper parts of my mind. Sometimes they represent fears, but other times, strengths I didn't know I had.

Remember why you created something for the first time: to let yourself be guided by the mysterious energy of curiosity, to be in awe of every discovery, to see what you are capable of, and to expand your horizon of possibilities.
You create for the joy of it.

Third Wind Chime
“We don’t want to live a frivolous life, we don’t want to live a superficial life. We want to be serious with each other, with our friends, with our work. That doesn’t necessarily mean gloomy or grim, but seriousness... is something that we are deeply hungry for, to take ourselves seriously and to be able to enjoy the nourishment of seriousness, that gravity, that weight.”
