DAILY GROWING EDGE
Slow into your day and allow space and time for reflection of your intentions, schedule, and projects. Mentally review your day and decide before you walk out the door how you want to show up. Live the day with intention.

DAILY GROWING EDGE
The time it takes to offer a word of appreciation, and expression of thanks, or a word of gratitude is time and energy well spent. It not only deepens our connection with others but also expands the Grateful Center within ourselves that helps us to bring life-giving energy to all we do.

~ Who needs to hear a word of appreciation from you?
~ Is your Grateful Center expanding or shrinking?

"Life is 'alive'; this is its abiding quality as long as it prevails at all. The world 'life' is synonymous with vitality...all living things continue to survive as long as that essential vitality is available to them...To say that this is a living universe is to say that life itself is alive and that this aliveness expresses itself always in seeking - yes, in goal-seeking...To state this in another way one may say that life seeks to fulfill itself, that is, to 'live itself out.' The point is, then, that life wherever it is found is trying to live itself out, or actualize its unique potential."

(Howard Thurman, "Disciplines of the Spirit")

“Your growth is not about some destination far in the future; it’s about the little day to day changes that make you feel a little more joy, the ones that make you feel a little bit lighter, a little bit more of you. Growth has no destination either— it’s more of a direction. It’s a direction towards becoming even more aligned with your authentic self. It’s about heading towards who you want to become. And if your direction changes? That’s perfectly okay too. Growth doesn’t happen in a straight line. It ebbs and flows, pushes and pulls. Growth is about doing what you think is best today to make tomorrow just a little bit more joyful, a little bit lighter. So grow in all the ways you want to grow, beautiful friend.”

— Nikki Banas, Growth

"Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." ~Howard Thurman

Cherishing the imperfect and the fleeting: Sacred Wisdom Texts Workshop on May 21st at Sylvan Pathways, Greensboro, NC Learn more: https://www.growingedgeresources.com/
Looking around our 20+ year old house, I see much to love, including the dingy and worn. The beige paint is peeling close to the windowsill. We must replace our gutters – They are unlevel with the roof and becoming more fragile each day. Basho, 17th century Japanese haiku master and a follower of Zen Buddhism, celebrates these qualities in his verse: “spring rain -- / down along a wasp’s nest, water / leaking through the roof.” How can a Buddhist view of this imperfect, perishing world and of all things as interdependent help me be more compassionate towards others and kinder to myself?
