I FIND THAT NO ONE TAKES SOMETHING OUT OF THEIR LIVES OR LOSES SOMETHING THAT ISN’T REPLACED. A VACUUM IS SOON FILLED. IT’S IMPORTANT TO CHOOSE WHAT FILLS THAT EMPTY SPOT WITH ATTENTION AND CARE. IF NOT, CONDITIONED EGO WILL FILL IT WITH SOMETHING THAT INSURES ITS SURVIVAL.
Filling that Empty Place
Visions of a People's Dharma 
INVALUABLE REMINDER! Thank you.
In giving up a “relationship” with either another human being or a substance or behavior that has become toxic, we have options on how to fill that void:
Perhaps, service, connection, a fulfilling hobby or new interest, learning somehthing new, connectiong with Nature, others, OURSELVES through quiet time and meditation, volunteering, reading, physical exercise or labor…
Starting with awareness that there is a void now, we must skillfully choose, experiement and find our flow into a “new normal”… Exciting, scary, just uncomfortable enough to be sustatinable and enable growth… and always coming back to who we are, who we really ARE and HAVE BEEN all along…
Happy EXPLORING to ALL!
