Aloha Friday ... Happy Blue Moon time to All ... two full moons this month and two times to experience the feminine energy in its fullest.   Thank you, Moon, for being in our sky with a presence that guides in understanding the concepts of receptivity, change, rebirth, balance, love ... and much more.   





I came across this sweet story and wanted to bring it into your awareness:

There is a well-known Zen story of a nun named Chiyono who had struggled for years to realize enlightenment. One evening she filled a bamboo pail with water and observed the moon's reflection in the pail. Then the pail broke, and Chiyono realized enlightenment. Her poem:

Suddenly the bottom fell out.
No more water.
No more moon in the water.
Emptiness in my hand!

Thank you for being here and, perhaps, 
I will see you at the river tonight
with our pails of water!

I AM ... Smiling!
