I'm reading and learning about the importance of taming my mind. Like many others, I assume, my mind takes on a life of its own and frequently leads me to wrong conclusions or premature judgments. These are never healthy in establishing connections with ourselves or with others. So as I practice this mind taming ideal, I hope to create inner peace for me and greater peace between me and those with whom I interact.
It seems to me that people from many different cultures have much to teach this short NewYorican/West Coast woman..
I will do my best to share my thoughts following prayer and meditation as well as following my more peaceful readings.
Increasingly the need for peace grows greater. In this blog, I hope to cull readings and activities which may lead to peace. First and foremost, knowing and understanding people from different backgrounds, in my opinion, will lead us to a willingness to avoid war and work for peace in this world.
