Day 92

During the day today, I received a text message from my friend, Kathi Antonson, with the above picture attached. Kathi photographed this creative window art on Hayes Street in San Francisco and sent it to me.

For the next several moments, I thought about my friendship with Kathi, and I found myself smiling as I walked with her in my heart. For this Peace Walker, taking a moment to connect with someone who may not be physically present is very grounding. It’s a way that I am able quiet my mind and drop io my body – into full presence. This energetic connection with others is another way to keep my heart at Peace.

Later in the day, I had an opportunity to attend a Full Moon Circle with several other women, and as we turned into the driveway where the circle was being held, this was what welcomed us onto the land.

Whenever I see a butterfly, I think of transformation. I think of the possibilities available to me (and to anyone) when I open myself to transformation, and I am excited by them. Sometimes, change and transformation stretch me to my limit, and I think I can’t “handle it”. But when I stay and go through rather than avoid the challenges, it is here that I find transformation. And for me, it is through transformation, that I find Peace.
