I am grateful to be in this place, surrounded by the natural world, with all of the beings that share it with me, that trust my comings and goings enough to simply be themselves. Mornings and evenings just resting in the peace and natural busyness of it......

I am grateful to be in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in N. C. I have had a wonderful healing reunion with family - especially with Aunt and nephew. She is his great aunt, and has been rescuing him from trouble for a few months now. She really appreciated me taking him to Asheville for a Vipassana Seminar. I don't know how much he enjoyed the lecture and the Dhamma Brothers Video, but he really enjoyed the beautiful day on the Blue Ridge Parkway and in the N. C. Botanical gardens. I took him back to S.C. and came back for a one day sitting up here. I told Barry that if he finds he really wants to go for a ten day silent Vipassana retreat, I will support him.
Tomorrow I visit a meditation furniture place up on the slopes of the highest mountain on the East Coast - Mt. Mitchell - almost 7,000 ft.
It is called "Carolina Morning and can be seen at zafu.net. metta, ron

I'm grateful my son is learning to read well, and I can talk to him about peaceful living, as I am experiencing it.

Best, Mike

WORD FOR THE DAY(gratefulness.org)
Sunday, Nov. 1

The greatest gift one can give is thanksgiving.
In giving gifts, we give what we can spare,
but in giving thanks we give ourselves.

Gratefulness, the Heart of Prayer

We are never more than one grateful thought away from peace of heart.

==============================================
A friend of my died recently--a heroin overdose. He was very miserable, and just did not seek help. I am grateful to have known him and to have been a friend. This gratitude is a key for me to not go to misery myself over someone else's diseased choice. There is a power greater than us all, that can make sense of it, I just need to accept this reality.

Best to all,
Mike
