I am slowly developing my room of tranquility, an oasis of peace within this house of chaos.
By the end of the month of September, when I am working again, this will truly be my sanctuary.
… in a domestic sense…
Karma yoga consists of entirely selfless service, in which the Ego is given up to the desire to serve God in every thing, be it man, animal or plant. Karma Yoga is also the path of doing the right thing, of following ones’ personal Dharma and accepting destiny as it comes. If the Karma Yogi is a householder, he will accept that role as much as he would accept the role of a servant to any in need, without seeking any remuneration in the shape of wealth, satisfaction, name or fame.
Do I expect anything? More often than not, I am not even looking for/or expecting a “Thank you”. It’s not that I WANT to be taken advantage of or for granted; rather, my primary motivator is something completely different altogether. It’s because I CAN.

I have been waiting for an event like this in Guelph… and after I just posted this in excitement, I realized that my partner and I are taking his children to an Easter Egg hunt at his folks’ church in Whitby. I’m going to mark in the June date to my calendar.
