All is easier when love is present.

In The Present...

In the present, 
the Will develops new strength. 
Being gives more direction to the Moments that follow. 
In the present, 
my intentional imagination can break recurrence. 
Old patterns 
need not have so much weight for my machine. 
I break recurrence 
by first walking through the Divine Doorway 
that is the ever-unfolding Present Moment. 
That place where my Soul is King.

This Beautiful Painting ...

Evelyn DeMorgan

This beautiful painting 

by pre-Raphaelite painter Evelyn De Morgan 

represents Flora. 

Note the artist has tilted her head 

to give more light to the left side, 

also the area of the heart is lit up and clearer.

Despite being born of all the beauty creation can offer, 

and being of such an astounding beauty, 

when I look deeply I feel my soul drawn 

to the wisdom and depth of presence, 

the honesty and being Essence of presence, 

the simplicity of presence amidst all this color and beauty 

it is what is really born from the heart. 

It is so easy to forget how invisible it is, 

yet it is all the soul is - 

The purest Essence and distillation one can hope for 

through effort day by day moment by moment, 

to be who you really are.

We Must Never Forget ...

We must never forget 

that nothing that can happen 

or can be said can affect what we are. 

And it is from what we are 

that we can help others. 

Difficulties are a test of being. 

We have to show by example 

that inner certainty resolves all things.

To Wish For All...

René Magritte

To wish for all to be exactly as it is 

but to be so much more present to it. 

And then we have the possibility of REALLY seeing. 

Because it is all there for us 

if only we are deeply present to it. 

All the beauty and all the deep inner mysteries 

are here right NOW with us, 

always, 

if only we develop our being 

so that we see more clearly.
