what are we missing ?

in a regular place, at an inconvenient time, do we perceive beauty? do we acknowledge excellence?

do we stop to appreciate it? do we recognize talent when taken out of context?

if we do not have a moment to stop and be present to it - what else could we be missing?

use what you have to get you what you don't have

more than for mundane or material gain

when I apply a strength of mine towards an area of growth I'm working on

then I'm acknowledging & empowering myself as I'm learning rather than judging or beating myself up for a mistake or error

a preferred perspective - definitely!

why I love my daughter so

Hi Mom! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I made you a little saint called the Bodhisattva of Time. She's for when you feel pressured or harassed and like there's not enough hours in the day. She makes time for you.

I was thinking of your diwatas when I made her and also of those lovely Thai spirit ladies with the bird tails.

Happy birthday again and may blessings rain down on your head this whole week!

Lots of love, Mahala
