Introduction to Blog

Welcome and thank you for being here and participating in our mindful moment. Of course your experience may vary.; what we hope for everyone is serenity and peace of mind. One way, we Teresa and I, promote the concept of mindfulness is compassion. What compassion is about, to me, is a new meaning for Love.  We all know and understand what love is all about, right? Or do we have a limited view, as limited as our vision of God.  I will mention God and Love freely throughout my blog, yet do not be confused.  I am merely connecting an element of compassion to the Big Picture of God’s Will for us.

A dialect approach will be used throughout this blog.  ‘Dialectic’ means I don’t have an exact right way of defining a concept or an idea.  Thinking dialectically implies contemplating an approach of “how much do I identify and relate. to this topic”  Or rather, on a continuum basis, how much does this resonate inside me and my heart?

Another way of pondering a dialectic is through paradoxical thinking.  These concepts are not black and white.  More like a “both/and” than an “either/or.”  “Di” means two and “lectic” means from side to side or beginning to end.  Therefore, a continuum approach is useful (i.e. from 1 to 10).  How much does this belief apply to me?

The intended purpose of preparing you, the reader, for how I, the writer, will communicate; is to help you become more contemplative when pondering the nature of compassion.  A contemplative heart lives in the middle and outside paradox.  “There is a field beyond right and wrong, I will meet you there,” ~Rumi~
