Circles
I don't have proof of this -- I don't think it can be proved, really -- but my gut feeling is that the universe's favorite shape is a circle. Not a triangle, not a square, not a rhombus (though that is a fun word to say...rhombus..), but a circle.
Have you noticed? Things happen in circles; in cycles. Both in the BIG sense -- such as historical cycles or business cycles -- but in the personal sense, too.
Take some time today and for the next little while paying attention to the circles and cycles in your life; don't judge them or evaluate them, just try and notice them. Are certain problems emerging with regularity? Are you reacting in a way that compels you to live in a kind of routine; one that you don't want?
Then the trick is to go into a different circle; one that leads you to inspiration, to compassion, and to peace (remember, if you are peaceful, you will make others peaceful as a by-product; if you aren't peaceful than you CANNOT make anyone peaceful, either -- you cannot give to others what you don't have, and if you don't have peace how can you make others peaceful?)
Notice your cycles; your patterns; your circles. And then create new ones!
