One Sun, One Ocean, One Sky, One Planet

How did we all become so divided? If we think about it for a moment we all live under the same sun, breath the same air, are surrounded by the same ocean and live on the same planet.

That in itself is an amazing thing, if we just take a moment to think about it that is.

Simple Thoughts Big Messages

It seems the less I try to over think it, the more clear and easier the message becomes.

This morning I woke up around 4:30 am and not wanting to get up yet I just sort of relaxed in the state between awake and sleep. At some point my mind heard, recited, received or whatever the words, "You are measured by the deeds of your heart." Plain and simple, clear and simple.

Just so you know I don't talk like that or actually think like that.

It sounds good to me, feels good to me and simply makes simple sense to me.

Don't Over Think It

I read this qoute the other day and I find it really rings home for me:

Let me throw every image away and say the simplest things that are true: I exist, I am aware, I create. These are the three qualities of essence that permeate the universe.

I think I feel this most when I'm lost in my thoughts in my wood studio:

I'm existing in the moment, I'm aware of the present and I'm creating something beautiful from wood.
