The suggestions in the post i.e. cultivating beauty and joy, playing, filling your sails with dreams, and feeding your soul with what enchants you are worth meditating over each day. What do they mean in our living?
Feed your soul with what enchants you
Bask
Rough seas will pass
~~Ebb~~~ and~~ flow~~~~
Cultivate beauty and joy
Dive deeply: ’tis where the richest treasures lie
Play
Your heart is your true compass: listen
Fill your sails with your dreams
and
Venture forth on your life’s vast seas of possibility
Be intrepid in your quest
LOVE

Dear Ivon, Methinks you are a mindreader or an angel (or both), in addition to being a very compassionate and generous soul. I was just sitting here at my computer, eager to write a post, and wondering whether I should bother. And then the reblog icon came on. Thank you more than I can say for your wonderful support, for showing up in my life when I need it–again and again and again. May your new year, including your graduate studies, enchant you. xoxo
You are welcome and thank you for the kind words. It is a lovely post and worth while being shared so others may while in its worth.
Intrepidness is a requisite.
It is Bruce. We need to be willing to live on the edge of who we are always becoming.
Dive deeply, tis where the deepest treasures lie – oh so very true.
Thank you for the lovely comment Bill. We should dive deeply in living.
Keep Love in your heart.
And share it from there.
Love this Ivan! Especially “Bask — rough seas will pass — ebb and flow.” Mantras to live and expand by. Thank you ♥

How I liked that first line: Feed your soul with what enchants you. We need to do that more often – on a daily basis. Then our soul will shine to brighten others’ pathways as well.
We need enchantment. It makes the world magical.
