PEBBLE
Be able to be alone.
Lose not the advantage of solitude, and the society of thyself.

Sometimes it takes darkness and
the sweet confinement of your aloneness
to learn anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

As I prepare to disappear into the mountains for my annual retreat, I invite you to join me in spirit: find a few precious moments in your schedule and seek a quiet spot away from your crazy life to sit, ponder, breathe and be. It will help us return to life refreshed and ready for some exciting new possibilities for this evolving tribe of Ripplers....details early in 2009!

Peace,
Paul
p.s. I have queued up Ripples for a few weeks, so you will still receive your weekly splash while I am on retreat!
