The path that gets us to becoming lighter is the one that is more and more about less and less.
The path that gets us to becoming brighter is the one that embraces mystery.
As you approach another New Year’s Day (just 39 days from now), may you ponder ways to lighten your load and walk with wide-eyed wonder.
Awareness of the now.
Hope on the horizon.
Connection.
Joy-filled, wondrous experience.
Quiet service.

This week’s artist overview is My Morning Jacket. Be sure to purchase their new record, The Waterfall.
The song we look into is called ‘In Its Infancy (The Waterfall)’. Lyrics can be found below.
Again [x10]
The idea was always there, in it’s infancy
The seed took root, over many years
An idea grows before it walks
And as it walks, it learns to run
And as it runs, it feels it’s form
The waterfall, can it be stopped?
Again [x12]
[Chorus x2:]
Again I stop the waterfall by simply thinking
Again I stop the waterfall before my breathing
Again I stop the waterfall by finally feeling
Again I stop the waterfall by just believing
Again [x11]
“Simplicity is the glory of expression.”
“I have learned that to be with those I like is enough.”
“We convince by our presence.”
“Freedom – to walk free and own no superior.”
“The real war will never get in the books.”
I thought this was a pretty special outlook into consciousness, ups and downs, what counts, success, and one’s journey into coming to know his Whitman.
