Beginner’s Mind

Beginner’s Mind – a caption offered by my daughter. The photo seems to capture the Zen premise that every day is a rebirth – that while we are not separated from the past – we do not have to be controlled by it. It’s a new day — new possibilities.  Join us for meditation on Oct. 5 if you can.
