Mindful Purpose

A copse of trees in mindful unison

Finds peace as they reflect ‘bout unity

With raw lake breezes, warmth of winter sun

And life in harmony, designed prudently.

My post this day is a tribute to a group of nearly two dozen Buddhist monks from Ft Worth TX on their 2,300-mile Walk for Peace…their stated purpose”…not to protest, but to awaken the peace that already lives within each of us.” They will spend the afternoon and night here in Pittsboro and continue their trek in the morning.


I wish them Godspeed in their endeavor to encourage people of all walks of life to come together in the spirit of compassion, mutual respect and understanding.
