A Prayer...



God help us to live slowly 
to move simply 
to look softly 
to allow emptiness 
to let the heart create for us. 

~ Michael Leunig

The Inner Light......



#47

"Without going anywhere, 
you can know the whole world. 
Without even opening your window, 
you can know the ways of heaven."
You see: the further away you go,
 the less you know....
The sage does not need to travel around; 
Why? Because he can still understand.
 He sees without needing to see, 
he never does anything, and yet....
it all happens....

~Lao Tzu

The Soul...



The soul needs to breathe and be allowed to experience this life through us. It does not flourish in the incessant arguments of the mind. Remembering myself, and offering my life to the divine, is key to breaking this cycle.

Something Enters One's Blood.....

Dante Gabriel Rosetti

It is a powerful feeling to actually feel as Rilke would say "something to enter ones blood" to become part of the real you to allow more and more this incredible process of building another body to process information directly to the heart and soul.

Learned

William Blake


We have a lot of imagination about what we 'cannot ' handle are what we are scared of. Many things or attitudes are just learned and not part of our real essence. Our I's often tell us something is too hard, but often those thoughts are not real.

Turmoil

James Henry Nixon


So really we have to be grateful for soul-shaking, though God knows it may be uncomfortable enough at the time. Perhaps our mistake is that we want peace in the wrong place. People ask for peace in their souls when they should ask for turmoil in their souls, so that they may find real peace in their spirits.
