Inner Kindness

Recently, events have heightened my despair for the future. Allowing myself inner kindness is key for me to come out of this fear.

We live in a world today it's all about knowing the price of things and somehow ignoring their value of them. Presently, there's tremendous righteousness while a deficit in reverence. 

Itake for granted so much of our opportunities potential and possibilities. In this age of distraction, we now must focus better on how we can best go forth.

What is priceless is my ability to enjoy nature. Also, foster friendships and share simple gatherings. When I see wild animals, I experience this awe. Or just savoring a cup of coffee. When I awaken to such priceless experiences of life's beauty, I enlighten my world.

Presently, we have a greater opportunity to extend our future on the planet. Becoming more frugal and lessening our impact, we embody what is sacred.

Extending kindness with others I personally benefit by raising a greater unified field of virtue. So my definition of price is anytime I act for the greater good and serve to benefit.

This skill to get out of the self and contribute greater merit to my world. This contributes to my spiritual portfolio. Investing in this, I widen my prosperity.

All I can do is make healthy individual choices they don't hopefully don't impact others.

I now pray to the universe that we, as lost children, do not know how our acts endanger our future.

-Forgive me if I've harmed
-Provide me wisdom to be a benefit
-Give me insight for greater service
-Illuminate me with the experience of my ancestors
-Bless me with optimism for future generations
-Guide me to remedy any of my wrongs
-May I find mercy and kindness
-May I show freedom and joy
-May I lead by example
-May I bring my best to this world

The PRO Zone

I was just at the US Open as their guest. My mentor, Pauline Betz Addie, was inducted in their Court of Champions, winning four times in the 1940s.  In walking around several mindless cell phone users nearly collided with me. When I realize I am mindless, I celebrate the gift of the now, also called the present. Playing tennis has been a form of meditation for me. I call  the “PRO Zone " The acronym PRO- Pause, Relax and Open helps my game — arriving fully to play tennis. By relaxing in the present, I allow the distracting “mental” weather systems to pass. This allows me to greet each new point. Increasing my concentration, I give my fullest intention to pay attention.  When I “pause” between points and slow down-- becoming more responsive and less reactive increases my concentration during play. Next, getting myself to “relax” and focusing on mentally showing up can both lessen my errors and my anxiety  My introduction to mindful tennis first began when I asked my f...

Green Spaces Provide Great Economic Potential

This is a guest column thanks to Jack Lundee - "Taking a more progressive green approach." Some of the more heavily discussed topics of early 2010 include obesity, green infrastructure, clean water, and more. In particular, the addition and/or substitution of green spaces have been quite controversial as of late. Senior resident of Urban Land Institute Ed T. McMahon states "Green space adds value to property." Not only would these areas of conservation drive economic trends upward, but they also improve the overall health of the surrounding community. For example, substituting things like golf courses with conservation areas would essentially increase surrounding property value while diminishing overpriced maintenance fees. The same holds true for airports and other large acre-eating developments. Some of these areas are already abandoned or unkempt. For instance, park and recreational areas that were once highly visited have become urban wastelands. In an articl...

The shortest day is upon us. This is an opportunity to celebrate the most startime.  I embrace this starlight to light my inner candle. Dance under the Milky Way, allowing the trillions of lights filtering into the trillions of cells within you.   We are all children of the stars! It is a quantum pool of loving kindness. 93% of the mass in our body is stardust originating from giant red stars by the Big Bang 5 billion years ago. We share 97% of the same atoms. All the basic elements of life, oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, calcium, and iron, were created before the earth. We share from these red giant stars more of this stardust than the asteroids or the planet Mars, All living and nonliving things on Earth, from water, crystals, rocks, stones,plants, animals, insects, birds, fish consists, of this stardust The First People are and were mystical stars watchers.
