Decisiveness
Sunday, October 4th
With so much in life beyond our control (even more so these days, eh?!), it’s easy to become numb and feel “paralyzed” in our decision making, thinking that we can’t make a difference. Yet all it takes is that first step, that choice to begin, to take action on even the smallest thing. Being decisive empowers us and it feels good, too! Come join the conversation this Sunday, October 4th, at 10:30 a.m. in the Paths of Heart backyard (117 Evans Dr., Fort Collins, CO 80524). Please RSVP ( see the “Looking Ahead” section below for details).
Love and Light,
Colleen and Mark
Quotes to ponder
“If you obsess over whether you are making the right decision, you are basically assuming that the universe will reward you for one thing and punish you for another… There is no right or wrong, only a series of possibilities that shift with each thought, feeling, and action that you experience.” ~ Deepak Chopra
“Decision is a risk rooted in the courage of being free.” ~ Paul Tillich
“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” ~ Anne Frank
“One thing I’ve found… the road rarely rises up to meet you until you’ve begun walking.” ~ Michele Jennae
“Dare to keep moving when it is a must and dare to keep waiting when you have to, but note, you shall always keep waiting if you keep waiting and you shall always keep moving when you keep moving!” ~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
Looking Ahead/Notes of Interest
THIS Sunday, October 4th, 10:30 a.m. -Our next Paths of Heart Gathering in our backyard at 117 Evans Dr. in Fort Collins. We will be limiting the number of people on any one Sunday, so reservations (and masks) will be required. Once everyone is seated and our meeting begins, we’ll have the opportunity to remove our masks if everyone present is comfortable with that. We will be seated at least 6 ft. apart. Reply to this email or call 970-484-9600 to RSVP.
You may also RSVP for our next 2 gatherings planned at this point: October 18th, and November 1st (weather permitting).
“Paths of Heart Labyrinth” Service Opportunity! – We are still looking for volunteers who might want to drop by occasionally (or on a regular basis) and help with clearing the labyrinth of debris and weeds. With our frequent high winds, there is a constant need to pick up twigs and limbs that fall from the trees onto the path, and we are finding that even though we put down professional grade weed barrier, our persistent bindweed is finding its way through! You can be as meticulous as you’d like (Colleen has a different word for her particular fastidiousness!), and any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Know that you are always welcome to drop by and walk the Paths of Heart labyrinth – you do not need to let us know in advance. Do note that we have experienced the outer “halo” of glass blocks to be slippery when wet, so it’s best to come on a dry day!
Gratitudes
We are grateful for all those who are supporting Paths of Heart financially during these challenging times. Expenses still exist, even when we can’t meet in our regular way these days. Several have chosen automatic monthly donations through Paypal, which is a big help. Let us know if you’d like more information on this option.
