Daily Zen - Friday, July 26

Life is the great unknown. Even though

we plan and scheme and make millions 

of assumptions...the truth is that we don't 

know what can happen in the next moment, 

let alone the next five weeks, months, or years. 

So, don't be surprised when things don't go 

according to your ideas, just relax and

remember, life isn't personal, it's just life.

Daily Zen - Thursday, July 7

Letting go of the ever-demanding 

ego (self-identity) is the greatest gift 

we can bring to our own life and 

the life of all beings. The less of "you" 

there is, the happier you will be.

~ Michael Kewley

Weekend Zen, January 1-2

May I accept other beings, 

exactly as they are in this moment.

May I accept this moment

exactly as it is. 

May I accept myself

exactly as I am in this moment.

Daily Zen - Tuesday, November 2

When fear is finished, 

there are no more 

problems to be resolved, 

only life to be lived.

~ Michael Kewley

Weekend Zen, January 26-27

In your life—be happy.

In your meditation—go deep, 

and in your love—give it freely.

Peace is here.

Daily Zen - Thursday, March 1

The power of love in life

is truly phenomenal, and 

those who argue against it 

have simply not yet understood.

~ Michael Kewley

Daily Zen - Monday, January 22

True freedom arises when you do not want 

anything from anyone else and so,

from this fearless state, you will be 

at peace with yourself and all beings.

~ Michael Kewley

Daily Zen - Thursday, May 4

I do not care at all if you are male or female, 

young or old, fat or thin, tall or short.

I do not care what you call yourself or how you dress. 

I do not care what language you speak or what you 

make important in your life. I am only interested

 in your heart, in your love, in your compassion.

~ Michael Kewley

Weekend Zen, February 13-14

Everything changes, but wisdom stays the same.

Live with love and be aware --- no more is needed.

~ Michael Kewley

Daily Zen - Tuesday, January 26

We all want to be recognized. We all want to be seen.

See me. See who I am. See I am awesome.

See I am important. See me! 

This pitiful cry from the depths of our self,

this aspect of our deepest suffering. 

~ Michael Kewley
