This very moment, billions of acts of loving-kindness are happening all over the earth. Love flowers in humble anonymity. Beauty wears the veil of quietness.
The media seldom shows you these anonymous sacraments of the commonplace. They would rather magnify momentary acts of violence than record the continuous bass-line of goodwill that is our human pulse.
Right now, countless human souls yearn for peace, longing to alleviate the pain of their friends and loved ones. To sense this truth, let go of public noise. Step out of the media's echo chamber, including the insidious subliminal nerve-wracking buzz of internet "news."
Rest your awareness in sacred silence at dawn and sunset this Sabbath day. In Hebrew, "Shabbat" literally means, "stop!" Slow down at least. Pause between the gentle surrender of this exhalation, and the graceful gift of the next breath. "T'Shuvah... Return..." Discover that your true nature is peace. The resonance of your beauty is nearer than thought, more intimate than a heartbeat.
This vibrant inner quietness is your birthright. So subtle, so soft, it unravels the threads of matter and distance, enfolding the planet in an ocean of Grace. Why not Be the boundless expanse of peace that you really are, not in the future, but now?
