Touchstones
Living holistically establishes priorities
through the tournament of experience.
When we meditate on core virtues,
life's meanings begin to unfold.
Personal themes become integral values: touchstones.
Without the flow of harmony between personal
values and the World's, potential is hamstrung.
Virtue and harmony are arts with infinite potential.
Cherishing the Significant
Balancing wants and needs requires pragmatic wisdom.
Embracing neither austerity nor extravagance,
we follow an uncluttered path
when desires beat their drums of discontent.
Cherishing the significant, discarding the superficial,
we trek with riches of contentment.
