"There is a force within that gives you life. Seek that." --Rumi
ThanksBeing with Rumi
"It's Thanksgiving time...the holiday of humility and togetherness. The holiday that asks us to look within toward that ever-present beacon of gratitude which is often obscured by the frenetic world we've created. It reminds us to give, to make amends, to repair ruptured friendships and family ties. It leans into sustenance and nourishment. The table becomes the altar. The family become precious guests. Around the table there is a feeling of remembrance of our true nature and purpose. We are asked to put differences aside and become one... to lean into Unity, Peace and Love." A non-American explores the spirit of Thanksgiving and ThanksBeing in this lovely piece interspersed with quotes from Rumi.
BE THE CHANGE
Regardless of whether you celebrate Thanksgiving or not, consider taking a few moments today to express appreciation for dear ones in your life.
