    Today, like every other day, we wake up empty
    and frightened. Don't open the door to the study
    and begin reading. Take down a musical instrument.

    Let the beauty we love be what we do.
    There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
    Rumi...

    Love this piece. There is a surrender in it that inspires me so.
    Big love to you, beautiful one !

    surrender... release and a yogic majesty...
    probably an oxymoron but thats the vibe I get! xoxox

    surrender...I saw this image and that was the word that filled me...surrender and grace...and then I came to comment and saw that Caterina saw the surrender too.

    beautiful karin.

    This beautiful piece of work brings to mind the Buddhist practice of prostrations... something I'm intimately familiar with.

    There's something about the act of bowing, and humbling oneself to the world or whatever, that is quite profound when approached with love and gratitude.

    Just gorgeous, Karin!

    Oh Karin this is breathtaking. It feels tranquil, sacred, hushed ....
    like entering a temple.

    Thank you everyone,
    You've all hit on the essence of what I feel and tried to express - reverence, humility, surrender, acceptance, release through yogic prostration...

    I bow again and again, to life on this earth, to that which I have no power over, to the suffering of so many, knowing it all is as it is just to be present to the All.
    with love, Karin

    Yesterday was a day from Hell and this morning was pretty bad too.

    I honour you in my heart dear one.
