peace ... please

Quiet | a few reminders



I'm posting these pictures for a few reasons.  Mostly because they remind me of my truest intention: peace.

I took these pictures during those hot summer-like days a couple of weeks ago -- right after three weeks of torrential rains, floods, road blockages and deadly mudslides.

And today in LA, the disaster toll continues to rise as a Metrolink derailed, killing and injuring many local commuters.

The thing is, I don't believe this was a mistake.  [update: as the day progresses, authorities claim the same.]

There's no reason for this kind of tragedy -- except for lack of love.

Whether we're referring to a natural disaster or human error or even a terrorist attack, it's still a reflection of our world -- the world around us and the world within.

We create our own reality.  This is it.  It's not happening outside of ourselves.  It's part of us -- not apart from us.  We need to take responsibility for our thoughts and our actions.

When we are upset, the planet is upset.  From within our own selves all the way to the extended hands of our neighbors, friends and even our enemies.  We are out of balance.  Way outta wack!

I guess it needed to get this way for me to be reminded of my intentions, on this journey, in this heart.  It's all about the intention.

~ peace ... please ~
