Tending Hearts | Growing in Lovingkindness and Compassion

In Good Company is dedicated to cultivating spiritual growth and community by supporting the experience of personal transformation, renewal, deeper listening to both self and others and the power of a healing love. Our vision is to transform our communities (and through them the world) by furthering the growth of compassion and loving kindness through teachings about gratitude, what it means to li

ve with an open heart and learning to respect one's own inner spiritual guidance. We will do this by offering retreats, circles, individual and group spiritual direction and creative art and spiritual formation practices.

Stretching towards the sun
Sunflowers dazzling beauty
Reflecting the light

A divine spark lives within us all
Yet when life grows difficult
And heartache dims the flame
When anger and fear cloud our vision
And emotions muffle Love's whispers
Even then, in the brokenness
The light remains

This is us
Our world
Our country
Our cities
One people
We walk this journey of life together

Each life matters
What affects one person
Affects us all

It doesn’t matter whether you live in the United States, China, Russia, Sweden or Iran
The words we say matter
The tone of our voice matters
Our actions matter

We create the world we live in
What is your hope for our world
For each other
For your children
Your grandchildren
For all beings

Live consciously
The choices you make matter
Stay with what your heart knows is true
Root yourself in Love
Be Kind
Be compassionate

Don’t live from your shadow or in the shadow of someone else

Live from your light
Let your light shine
This wounded world needs your light.

Each day so much is given

Sitting under the canopy of a large oak tree
I listen to the gentle whispers of the earth
The wind brushes across my face
I marvel at the music it creates rustling the leaves in a dance
My eyes are drawn to the beauty of the sunlight
Slanting through the trees branches
The spider’s web glistening with the morning dew
The call of the red bird
The pecking of the red wing blackbird

The earth holds us
Cradles us
Sustains us
I place my hands on the earth
Feel its warmth
And give gratitude.

To let the tears come
to ache for another's heartbreak
to companion
to be with
to wait quietly as the path unfolds
One step at a time
There is no hurry.

It is hard these days
To decipher what is true
We are being bombarded with so many mixed messages
Differing opinions
Sometimes we forget real truth lies within each of us
Not outside of us
Pause and listen
What does your own heart say
What is your truth
See how love is moving in you and through you
Let go of anything that is not love
This broken, fractured, beautiful world
Needs your light
Humanity
Needs your love
~Laura Vaughan

We must keep
Aligning ourselves with Love
Returning again and again
To the light that illumines the way.
~Laura Vaughan

Another life lost
The violence and angst in our world
reflecting the dissonance in our society

Love calls us to something more

Embedded in each of us is
Truth
Light
Love

Every breath we take contains molecules of those who have gone before us
Take a moment to let that sink in

We sometimes forget that what affects one of us affects all of us

Every life is sacred
Every life matters

What matters is how we love

~Laura Vaughan

Leave your wishes on the doorstep
Carry your light into the streets
Let your peace flood the neighborhood
We must serve life
It is not enough to want things a certain way

Be the light
Offer hope
Be the peace
Offer compassion
Be the love this world needs
Every
Single
Life
Matters.
-Laura Vaughan

What a magnificent world we live in

Pay attention to beauty along your path
What captures your attention
Causes your lips to curl up
Your heart to expand

Love is always giving us what we need
Showing us what really matters
In unexpected moments
We encounter the Holy.
~Laura Vaughan
