Our Highest and Best in the New Year

What would it take to be our “highest and best” in this New Year and beyond?  We’ll explore various tools and ideas for creating and empowering our best selves going forward.

“I am unique.
I have a mission.
I have a calling.
I will fulfill my highest potential and calling.”

 ~ Lailah Gifty Akita

“Our duty is to encourage every one in his struggle to live up to his own highest idea, and strive at the same time to make the ideal as near as possible to the Truth.”
~ Swami Vivekananda

“To live in the light of a new day and an unimaginable and unpredictable future, you must become fully present to a deeper truth – not a truth from your head, but a truth from your heart; not a truth from your ego, but a truth from the highest source.” ~ Debbie Ford

Looking Ahead/Notes of Interest

Tuesday, January 15th ~ Our next “Song Circle” night, 7-8:30 pm.  Come sing songs of love, peace, light, and goodness as we lift our spirits and send those good vibes out into the community and the world!  Light snacks and tea will be provided.  Love offerings to Paths of Heart are always gratefully received.

Sunday, January 20th ~ Our next potluck, immediately following our Paths of Heart gathering.

‘Gratitudes’

We are still basking in the light, warmth and good times with family and friends during the holidays!  The tree is down, but twinkling lights, cards, and other treasures will linger in our community space as a reminder of the peace and good will we can all bring to this world throughout the year.

Epiphany
This Sunday happens to be the 12th day after Christmas, and is celebrated by many Christian religions as The Feast of the Epiphany, marking the “manifestation” of Jesus to the world.   One doesn’t have to follow any particular religion, however, to contemplate an epiphany in the secular sense.
From Merriam Webster: epiphany
3a (1) : a usually sudden manifestation or perception of the essential nature or meaning of something
(2) : an intuitive grasp of reality through something (such as an event) usually simple and striking
(3) : an illuminating discovery, realization, or disclosure
b : a revealing scene or momentHave you ever experienced “an epiphany” that changed the course of your day, your mindset, or perhaps your life?

“Sometimes a revelation comes with a flash of heavenly light and a booming voice and sometimes it is jotted in a sun-bleached spiral notebook.” ~ Jeffrey A. Lockwood

“A great epiphany: I found out that I’m totally confused and I’m good with that. I’m consistently inconsistent. I’m all of the above. I’m OK. I’m a work in progress. That’s my next tattoo somewhere.” ~ Ronnie Dunn

“Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.”  ~ John Milton

Reflection
On this day before the last day of 2018, we’ll reflect on what’s transpired in this past year, how we’ve responded, how we’ve grown, the lessons we have gleaned…
Your comments, stories, reflections are most welcome!
“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Reflection is a gift for your spirit: it allows deeper parts of who you are to come forth and be discovered, and it also enables you to create yourself anew. You begin the process seeking to find out who you are, and then you discover that you play a role in the creation of who you want to be.” ~ Jennifer Williamson

“We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are.” ~ Anais Nin

What a beautiful Christmas Eve Celebration we had here at Paths of Heart!  Many thanks to all who added their bright light to our evening of music and poetry.  Again, we miraculously had just enough “room at the inn”!  Special thanks to Susan and Jim Skog for providing dinner to our family of musicians and to Judi Lucero for her lively flute playing!

The Gift of Presence

A Blessed Solstice and Merry Christmas to you!  As we’re busily wrapping presents for friends and family, we’ve been thinking about the greatest gift of all ~ that of presence and being fully present in the moment.  It’s easy to get “wrapped up” in the busyness and stress of the holiday season, but let’s consider what’s truly important ~ just BEing with those we love.  The gift of one’s time is a treasure, and we are blessed to share it with you for an hour or so most every Sunday.  Let’s steep in this most precious gift together and count our blessings as we head into the New Year.

“Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?” ~ Dr. Suess

“Christmas is not as much about opening our presents as it is about opening our hearts.” ~ Janice Maeditere

“He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree.” ~ Roy L. Smith

Honoring the Many Paths

We are all on a different adventure, traveling our own unique path in life.  How lovely to support and honor one another along our journeys!  You are invited to share your path with us so we may encourage and love you on your way!

“If you show up fully for the journey, if you honor the process, you will melt right into the outcome.” ~ Jennifer Williamson

The Gift of Self Care

It’s common to find ourselves overwhelmed at this time of year with so many obligations, events, “to do” lists and the like, pulling us in all directions.  How can we stay centered and balanced, so we can enjoy the sweetness of the holidays without the stress?  We’ll explore ideas for self care this Sunday!

“Love yourself enough to set boundaries. Your time and energy are precious. You get to choose how you use it…”
~ Anna Taylor

“Self-compassion is simply giving the same kindness to ourselves that we would give to others.”
~ Christopher Germer

The Light Inside

This is the power of gathering: it inspires us, delightfully, to be more hopeful, more joyful, more thoughtful; in a word, more alive. ~ Alice Waters

Welcome to “Paths of Heart“- a high spirited, heart-centered community where we gather together in music, poetry, commentary, and dialogue to create and nurture joy, compassion, gratitude, and love – in our own lives and throughout the world.  Paths of Heart is a 501(c)(3) Human Services/Educational non-profit organization that uses the arts, especially, to encourage and propel seekers of a better, more peaceful world to find ways to serve, while becoming more kind and compassionate human beings.

We welcome you as we collectively and individually explore the sweet mysteries of life – this is an invitation into co-creation! Our gatherings are most every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. at 117 Evans Drive in north Fort Collins. Childcare is available (please let us know ahead of time so we can make arrangements).

We hope our paths cross soon!

The Light Inside

This Sunday evening is the start of Hanukkah, the Jewish Festival of Lights.  Many traditions from around the world also embody this central theme of light as we approach the Winter Solstice and the longest night of the year.  We’ll discuss how we can all be ‘bright lights’ for ourselves and others, and also share stories of our experiences with the YOU MATTER cards, as this year’s “Marathon” draws to a close.  We hope you can join us!  

“Give light, and the darkness will disappear of itself.” ~ Desiderius Erasmus

 “These are the darkest days of the year, and it’s no coincidence that the flickering flames of the menorah, the twinkling lights on the tree and the Kwanzaa candelabrum all harken to the human need for the comfort of light.” ~ Tracy Grant

“There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.”
~ Edith Wharton

Beauty All Around Us

We trust you all had a lovely Thanksgiving Day, however you chose to spend it!  We’ve noticed how people we’ve run into or seen on social media these last few days have been so kind, so appreciative, so willing to see the good and beauty that surrounds us.  Let’s keep it up!  As we enter the “holiday season” we can do so with love, generosity, and kindness, or give in to the pressures and stresses that can sometimes build during this busy time.  Choose Love.  Choose Kindness.  Choose Beauty.  And remember to breathe…

“Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.” ~ Rumi

“Love yourself. It is important to stay positive because beauty comes from the inside out.” ~ Jenn Proske

“Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing.” ~ Camille Pissarro

Looking Ahead/Notes of Interest

You Matter Marathon – Throughout the month of November, Paths of Heart will be participating in this global initiative that creates positive connections between individuals and within communities.  You are invited to take a handful of “You Matter” cards (we’ve got them here for you) and thoughtfully give them to others as you are moved to do so (or even leave them in public places for others to find!).  The possibilities are endless.  Here is a short video explaining the You Matter Marathon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=by97UBYpSpw
You are also invited to share your experiences with the cards on the You Matter Marathon Facebook Page!

Tuesday, November 27th – Monthly Song Circle, 7-8:30 pm. Bring your voice (and an instrument if you’d like).  We come together to sing songs of joy, love, peace, hope, kindness ~ whatever lifts us up!  We’ll have tea and a few snacks to share.  Love offerings to Paths of Heart are gratefully received.

#GivingTuesday and #ColoradoGivesDay are two wonderful opportunities to show your love for Paths of Heart!  Giving Tuesdayis this coming Tuesday, November 27th and is a movement to create an international day of charitable giving at the beginning of the Christmas and holiday season. Giving Tuesday was started in 2012 by the 92nd Street Y and the United Nations Foundation as a response to commercialization and consumerism in the post-Thanksgiving season.  Colorado Gives Day, Tuesday, December 4th is an annual statewide movement to celebrate and increase philanthropy in Colorado through online giving.  Though Paths of Heart is not a “big enough” non-profit to qualify for inclusion on the Colorado Gives website, we do encourage you to think about us on that day and to consider donating through our own website https://pathsofheart.org  Thank you so much for your generosity!

 What fun it was to have Johnsmith and Dan Sebranek as our music guests last week!  We appreciate the good vibes they radiate!  It was also nice to get a bit more time with them at our potluck.  Thanks to all who brought such awesome dishes to share and for the help with the set-up and clean-up.  We love our Paths of Heart family!

Gratitude!

As the Thanksgiving Holiday approaches, we are reminded of the myriad of things we are grateful for, each and every day.  We are especially pleased that our dear friends Johnsmith and Dan Sebranek will serendipitously be joining us in our celebration this Sunday!  Come enjoy the music of these two wonderful souls and bring your gratitude stories to share.  We’ll also have a “Gratitude Potluck” following our gathering (details below).  What a blessing this community is in our lives!  Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

“Today I choose to live with gratitude for the love that fills my heart, the peace that rests within my spirit, and the voice of hope that says all things are possible.” –  Anonymous

“Thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude. Gratitude is the completion of thankfulness. Thankfulness may consist merely of words. Gratitude is shown in acts.” – Henri Frederic Amiel

“Gratitude is when memory is stored in the heart and not in the mind.” – Lionel Hampton

A Circle of Friends

In these often trying and heartbreaking times, who do you turn to for solace and encouragement?  We have found safe haven in the company of dear friends.  And there is often music involved!  In contemplating songs for this Sunday, there were so many that came to mind that we decided to celebrate friendship largely through these songs, many of which we think you’ll know and can sing along.  Cheri Nichols will join us, and hopefully, Emma Sloniker and others, to help lead the songfest!

“The world is round so that friendship may encircle it.” ~ Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

“Friends… they cherish one another’s hopes. They are kind to one another’s dreams.” ~ Henry David Thoreau
