Stepping Stones- Original Watercolor Painting 11x14''

The Tao hides in the unnamed, yet it alone nourishes and completes all things.Imagine crossing this river on these slippery rocks. You will need a kind of fluid and mindful focus with each step so you don’t fall. Can you find a lesson in life from nature? Experiences are worth more than a thousand words. See if you can stop talking, both inside and outside of your head. Thich Nhat Hanh suggests that you make no effort in mediation, like a shell that gets washed over with waves. There is nothing to do, and everything to be. Tao #41 Brightness of the Tao seems like darkness, advancement seems like retreat, level path seems rough, superior path seems empty.
Reflections: Find a way to connect with nature and take a risk, like climbing a tree. What is the sound of silence between noises?Let your thoughts go by like leaves flowing down a stream. Affirmation: I am peace found in nature.
