Pasture of Plenty: Showing Up
http://pastureofplenty.blogspot.com/2011/03/showing-up.html
Friday, March 18, 2011. The images from Japan are soul crushing. Overwhelming doesn’t even begin to describe the immensity of the loss and the work ahead to peel away the levels of devastation. The very ground we walk on is hurting. It is up to us to soften our steps, to lighten the load. I once attended a funeral where the officiating pastor shared some wisdom that stuck with me. He said when someone experiences a loss, we immediately ask “What can we do? How can we help? Turn a stray into a pet. Leave ...

Pasture of Plenty: February 2010
http://pastureofplenty.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 7, 2010. I read something recently that struck a chord with me. 8220;Honesty involves taking responsibility. Judgment has to do with placing blame,” Judith Lasater. Yoga teacher and author. I liken it to a few hours I spent underground once in far northwestern Oklahoma. A few years ago, our family decided to try real-live spelunking and take on the wild caves at Alabaster Caverns State Park near the tiny town of Freedom. After officially checking in at the park office and being outfi...

Pasture of Plenty: April 2010
http://pastureofplenty.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 4, 2010. My beautiful friend Barbara – whom I consider to be an Okie goddess ruling over innate wisdom, 360-degree perception and stealth-like courage and humor – told me she didn’t know if she could stand it if it wasn’t Easter. She had just returned from Haiti less than 12 hours earlier. I knew immediately what she meant. It wasn’t about her at all – it was a statement about finding hope, and believing it might be able to pull this heavy, thrashing world in its wake. Sunday, April 04, 2010.

Thursday, February 5, 2015. Here’s a confession. I’m not a big Valentine’s Day fan. Oh, there are aspects of it I can get behind, like the increased odds of finding things with icing. But overall, I find V-Day a little too, well, pink and perky. Chakra. Brainwashed by Valentine’s Day culture, I had a hard time at first grasping that the color of the heart chakra is green, not pink or red. Sometimes it is described as being outlined with a thin pink glow. To me our spinning heart chakra could share the co...

Pasture of Plenty: Say Yes
http://pastureofplenty.blogspot.com/2011/02/say-yes.html
Saturday, February 12, 2011. 65279;. 65279;. I rarely let the word “No” escape. Because it is plain to my soul. That God has shouted “Yes! To every luminous movement in existence. By Hafiz, translated by Daniel L. Ladinsky. That one simple word requires us to drop our judgments, open the windows and doors of our heart and free the agoraphobic peeking out of our soul. When I look out my Oklahoma window, I see one of those “luminous movements” to which God said “Yes”...Sure there will be th...

So surprised I was to hear her speak like that. She began to sing a tale: "There was once a hardworking man. Who used to worry so much because he could. Not feed and clothe his children and. Wife the way he wanted. There was a beautiful little chapel in the village. Where the man lived and one day while. Calls ...
