"Seijaku reminds us that solitude isn't loneliness; it's a sacred space 
about calm, tranquility, stillness and acceptance of the imperfect."

                                             Quote by - Constance 



I let my mind wander~
     and listen to the pulse of the earth
within nature   hearing with my mind the sounds of life
      I embrace my native way and the Japanese way
of Seijaku with tranquility and calmness
                    stillness and solitude      amidst activity
finding Zen in the emptiness of a busy life
creating a calm home    and the acceptance of a tranquil mind
            I find an energized relaxation in the chaos of life

I have created a garden to visit many times a day ~ 
     finding serenity among the flowers, butterflies and bees
                         the vines twisting and the hued greens
the bird songs   my wind chimes tinkling in the breeze    
                 and a fountain of trickling water
and there I can let go of pointless distractions
             to focus on the depth and richness of silence

I savor moments to embrace my story and truths ~
                 finding beauty in simplicity
in the serenity of Zen's greens and blues   and flickering candles
         finding beauty in decay    a withered leaf   a broken thing
imperfect  things      for I am imperfect
I wish to be simple, natural,  to keep some things revealed
       to find my creativity and inspiration      accidently
and be still   in my meditation      

for me combining the Japanese Seijaka way ~
                     and the way of my native teachings
(actually much the same)
       makes me mindful of keeping only
                  what is necessary    allowing space to breathe
slowing down and doing more by doing less
                     and by being just imperfect me . . .
