The path became narrower and smaller, until there was no room left for turning. We came to a marsh land with a wonky old wooden bridge, in the water were caymans lurking. I didn’t know what to do. I let the lead loose, held on to Shiloh’s mane and said to him, you decide what we must do, I trust in you.

Everything in our lives affects others, we are not alone, like an island, we are inter connected with everything. This is what Yoga tells us, what Jesus and Buddha taught us.

Each day is a new day, where I practice again and again, non- attachment, practicing on focusing on the moment and Santosha, contentment for where I am right now, for what we have this day and allowing things to be as they are, knowing that life will unfold itself, maybe in ways beyond my understanding right now, but I do see a brighter and lighter world appearing. A world of connection, of compassion and understanding for each other.

What might initially feel like a self-focused action is how you grow your kindness, how you let gratitude nurture you and how you improve the effect you have on others.
