Winter has ended and my heart trembles a little
As I reflect on March within the English-speaking countries
I can feel how close it is I sense
it in the air and in the birds' cries
These weeks between winters are so good for the heart
They make us feel more connected to the world around us
We'll notice subtle changes
If you're late enough you might catch the first signs of spring
Feel the stir of new life
And it might even remind you
how much beauty lies hidden in simple carefree days
One of the most serious aspects of practice
that every practitioner must understand
It's just that most days in our lives are extraordinary—
simple workdays that take place
within our homes and families
Great occasions such as temple
visits birthdays and anniversaries
They arrive only occasionally
They are important and should be red
but they are the exception
Most of our lives are
spent in ordinary moments
doing ordinary things So
it's up to us to choose
Will we suffer because of
this or will we enjoy it
Someone commented on my
video saying that simple days
make me feel depressed
but what I really hear is
They're focused on seeking
more on chasing excitement
and novelty After all that 's
what defines their life
When we don't feel
enough Always trying
always wanting never
feeling satisfied or whole
That must be a heavy life
one I wouldn't wish on anyone
My blueberry apples are ready
As always
I'm pointing to the recipe
in the video description
I love these calm
Quiet days at home
when I rest between writing
I toss a piece into the fire
or cast a spell
I love the feeling of
having nowhere to go
To be expected
to be anywhere I choose the
pleasure of the speed of
these days I
hope one day
When I am standing
I will be able to say
that I have enjoyed my life
and not spent most of it
waiting for clarification
That would be a waste of
perfectly good days
full of flavor and enjoyment
If were to choose to see them this way
Most people
are naturally
inclined toward a simple
ordinary life but decades
of mass consumerism
marketing that makes us
feel inadequate the speed of
congratulations and the demands of instant captions
They cause us to forget life's true values
We close ourselves off
in the pursuit of a cow
which should never be caught
I hope my online presence
gives you the chance to
step off this plane and
reminds you
that your life
It is already brimming
with beauty and wonders and
long days become a
perfect delight simply worth noticing
As a young business owner and a modern
woman I won't tell
you to live like a man
One precise life and we should make the
most of it Be excited
by the opportunities
Spend the evening with
your friends and see
yourselves as a new hand
a new outfit or a candle
These things cannot become
the main drivers in your
life They are not substitutes
for a fulfilling life
Happiness must come from within
because only then is it genuine
Months ago I had so many new faces showing up on my
social media accounts
on practically every platform
My blog views
are now in the thousands
What's honestly amazing
and also really pleasant
is getting comments and emails every single day
asking how to start living freely
So I wrote a guide with simple steps
at will make you
feel the change almost
immediately Of course a
free life isn't a quick fix
In practice it's life
experience but I promised you
that if you start now you'
ll feel better within a week
In a year's time you 'll
thank yourself
for starting today
Thank you for watching
I hope to see you on your blog
