some thoughts on motherhood, marriage, learning to love my own face in the mirror, wondering about the lady in the tangerine coat in the bean aisle at the market, writing - the usual suspects.

Proclamation Of Goodness
It arrived in the mail from Karme Choling, the Shambala Meditation Center in Barnet, Vermont where I spent a week last October. It was tucked in with holiday shopping fliers, an electric bill, and other stuff.
Upon opening the envelope
a small, bright orange card
dropped into the palm of my hand,
an invitation.
Proclamation of Goodness
May basic goodness dawn.
May the confidence of goodness be eternal.
May goodness be all-victorious.
May that goodness bring profound, brilliant glory.
...this song of goodness arose in the mirror of my mind.
May it bring the world into a perfect state of goodness.
Written in Kalapa Valley by the Sakong

Goodness is news worth sharing.
