Rainbows

I speak about the rainbow being real and magical, its just the silly story of 
leprecons and pots of gold

I speak the real pot of gold being that life Is magical, and rainbows mean 
something and windy chairs amist the sunrise and bed blankets on 
terraces........
And these are a few of my favorite things...........

Prose in grief work

And I am asked do u hold those who passed with you ?


Your asking arises a curiosity if u already feel ur partner within you....and 
how does that feel ? Or are u looking for signs?

If it is  is just the sun rising, or does suffering and grief bring us closer to 
what's in that sunrise...  from where are u  seeing it  ?
Sometimes I ask myself Am I seeing just the function of it, or does the beauty 
touch me and what within me does it touch, something that has been touched 
already, something more....can I breathe into the unknowing and expand to 
include more, do I deepen so that the light within me expands somehow the depth 
of grief and love and honoring what was to what is ?

Know I am here exploring too, and yes, I feel visitied by some of the spirits of 
those I work with, those who have passed, those who I have connected to the 
human spirit and feel a third something illuminate  in the sharing.....sometimes 
in deep forgiveness when I forgive myself for not being able to be enough and 
accept what life has dealt me, I feel closer to the unknowing and the message of 
duerteromony
"Love your lord, your god with all your heart, soul and spirit and the sinai 
commandments, which have no promises of forever.....

Prose

I like sharing how I too am growing with more flowing abilities to not lecture 
or teach just offer shared ....compassion, reach in for empathy and hold strong 
to possibilities though hope that I may be so  worthy to
Love thy neighbor as thyself !

Experiements in truth
By ram dass. 

Session 3 is specifically spiritual in the sense it includes death and loss of 
the 'form' we are programmed to relate to, is there reprogramming when new gifts 
unfold new ways ? Are they really new gifts or are they those we already had and 
know how to still hold them ?

I think to moses who was told me would never enter the promised land, and to 
jesus who asked again to his father to let this cup pass if it be thy will ? 

In this morning I praise god for hope for me to allow thy will to be .

Christmas

And what did it mean, christmas, , make straight the path, for the way of the 
lord, the kingdom of birth, rebirth is upon us...

We gift to share the joy and glory of what god gave to us, his only begotton 
son......

To send the message of love, that we should love eachother and find the joy of 
that kingdom within us, in that love and connection......

I send wishes to open to that love and be it, feel it, know its upon you in 
grace......

Prose

Strange the sunrise here, how the time difference calls you from the night, and 
even as the sun doesth begin to rise, light fills the sky and the birds know 
something more than you can see....

Orange hangs over the horizon as if there is more than just the light of the 
world coming .......

Prayer

The sunrise brings compassion, the role I am in, there is a knowing I can not be 
everything to everyone else, I have within me the gifts for now that I receive, 
and in that is such great love also sacrifice, and in that sacrifice is a 
suffering, a carrying of a cross to follow the words of love and good
Which I can only do in this day, and remain true to same til it becomes my only 
truth, on earth as it may be bind in heaven....

In the evening, leave the shelter
Of your room where you know everything' for your house stands at the edge of 
great distances-whoever you may be"

Wisdom of SR

Just as the ocean has waves, and the sun has rays, so the mind’s own radiance is 
its thoughts and emotions. The ocean has waves, yet the ocean is not 
particularly disturbed by them. The waves are the very nature of the ocean. 
Waves will rise, but where do they go? Back into the ocean. And where do the 
waves come from? The ocean.
In the same manner, thoughts and emotions are the radiance and expression of 
the very nature of the mind. They rise from the mind, but where do they 
dissolve? Back into the mind. Whatever rises, do not see it as a particular 
problem. If you do not impulsively react, if you are only patient, it will once 
again settle into its essential nature.
When you have this understanding, then rising thoughts only enhance your 
practice. But when you do not understand what they intrinsically are—the 
radiance of the nature of your mind—then your thoughts become the seed of 
confusion. So have a spacious, open, and compassionate attitude toward your 
thoughts and emotions, because in fact your thoughts are your family, the family 
of your mind.: “Be like an old wise man, watching a child play.”

Jealousy

Maybe jealousy is a strong word and one that has a lot of label attached to it, 
maybe we can substitute jealousy for that mind which believes it is higher than 
the other and uses its 'upper hand" so to say to keep controlling the situation 
or the jealousy or non movement or non joining ? Maybe they will never join u in 
your journey and it will be your work to transform the word jealousy into 
another softer one ? 

Even if the Buddha himself were present in person, there would be
nothing he could do to guide a jealous person. A mind tainted with
jealousy cannot see anything good in others. Being unable to see
anything good in them, it cannot give rise to even the faintest
glimmer of faith. Without faith one can receive neither compassion nor
blessings.

Devadatta and Sunaksatra were the Buddha's cousins. Both were
tormented by jealousy and refused to have the slightest faith in him. Even as 
budda did and offered only good and teachings to others, 
Although they spent their entire lives in his company,
 he could not
transform their minds at all. 
His cousins continued to hold the good helpings to thy neighbors as if it were 
evil....because they could not feel part of or included in and spawn more 
jealousy ?

Moreover, even when evil thoughts about others do not materialize as
actual physical harm, they still create prodigious negative effects
for the person who has the thought. Can the word jealousy soften in this knowing 
to something beyond it, for you"

Morning clouds

Still that I am at the beach
And still the waves crash and the birds sing
Yet the rising of the sun is only upon the clouds, as they light and hide the 
globe of the coming.....

Morning prose

Unfolding, I like that word this morning, the cloud singing inviting in their
movement,

I'm singing to the tune,

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CsTtLOdyeek&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DCsTtLOdyeek


....When the bird are all singing around me,
and when I'm open to all of my heart,
there is love
there is life
there is laughter,
And today is  bri ight new start...

Quote bible 2013

“As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a
mother's womb, so you cannot understand
the work of God, the Maker of all things.”
 Ecclesiastes 12:5

Prayer-Prose 2013

Jesus was often asked by the elders, by what authority do you do these things?

When starting anything new we will be questioned to see if we know what we are
doing.

Jesus deftly answers by asking a question for the questioner. In Mathew 21 the
elders can not answer his question, and therefore.cannot question his authority.

Comments :

u know I read this again and resignate with the "I can not know" story which
comes to mind so often and maybe even draws me in the book of job.

Thomas aquionos' commentary chapter 38 onward, is extraordinary....like a cake u
want to keep under the glass to look at all the time cause its so beautiful and
u can't even eat more than a sliver at one sitting, its so sweet......

And from out of the whildwine, the lords voice is heard  and says who speaks
without knowledge....do u know.......

And you humble at every word with I can not know........

My question for now and for all time on this earth.....

Prayer

Oh lord
God of hosts
Come to me and fill me with heaven on earth
When the sun does shine
And its a gift every morning
To be a child of god
And to be filled with your ever soft loving that calls me here

I breathe the joy of the morning
And silence to love........

prayer poem 2013 CELEBRATION OF ST. JOHN OF THE CROSS day

I am grateful for the words of st john of the cross, this morning the readings 
from him, he teaches from song of Solomon

Where have you hidden
Beloved, and left me moaning ?

She call the beloved to move him more to answer her prayers. When god is loved 
he readily answers the request of his lover

"If you abide in me, ask whatever you want and it shall be done unto you (john 
15)

You can truthfully call god the beloved when you are wholly with him, and 
sometimes I am wholly with myself and the world around me, and then comes 
sadness....not around anything particular, just as a whole....

prayer poem 2013

Sometimes I hear the words of Jesus saying
"Oh you wicked and perverse generation, you seek a sign and a greater than jonah 
is here, a sign will not be given to you....."

I hear, its enough in this, to have the desire to be drawn to an open heart 
place, feel the sadness of your situation, and feel the presence  of love when 
u release that sadness, in me, in good, in all you are more than it......

PrProse

I think now in my extra quiet time that there is a choice, there is a way to
step into and over the line of joy and smiling and happiness, we all have things
to dwell on in the negative, in the indecisive  places but why rest there,

Here the songs of life, they are always playing.......

Prose on Hospital Chaplaincy work

I like belonging to the caregiving of the hospital, its so grand and u think,
just down the block is human spirit , people caring and loving for eachother, in
service, helping, different ways, some train to help in medical, others in
nursing care and overseeing, even the food  services person needs an open heart
to walk in every room every day and be while seeing....

Yes, I'm happy to be the spirit of hope, faith, the being who I pray to be in,
thru the words of jesus, I pray to be in the father in my work, let it be thy
will.

amen !

Prose

Take a deep breathe, hoild it....let it out slowly and know you are 
loved........

Fill your heart with the depth of the ocean, even amongst the raging ways....

How else to be, but in the moment of happening, right here, right now, 

Prose

Its dark and I hear the motion of the beach.....whose waves wake me I hear the 
poetry in my  soul.  I listen and spin the fine silk of words which write 
themselves on the invisible walls of each moment.   

Prose..kmg

I guess u can say u read into what you want to hear, when the you story in one 
is so strong

Its when one is clear and empty that they don't attack the "oh yeah that's in 
me"

Or it is what we read is a part in all of us, so the saints and apolostles, who 
were just orginary men, came to this ?

Thru naïve vitrue as a defense against lifes complexity ? Religion usually 
champions primary. Naïve, unbroken virtuousness, and yet look of the lifes of 
those who I learn from,

I want to be open to all my heart and pray in the joy I share today, in my 
softness at touching others I will receive....

My work with Rilke

"This is my daily work over which any shadow lies like a shell

-------this, is my daily work, this, this silence, this contemplation, this time 
in the hear and now, any shadow lies like a shell, a cover, something keeping me 
safe maybe I'm growing out of, so its in shadow and not complete cover...-------


And even if I'm like leaves and loam wherever I pray or paint
It becomes sunday once again and in the valley I'm the voice of a praising 
jerusalem...

------Leaves changing colors, falling, blowing in the wind, loom color, died, 
spun of animal, in creation, coming together, pray or paint, the action of 
connection and creating, it becomes the day of rest, openness, light, sabbath, 
and all these voices are with me and the praise of god from the beginnings of 
time, jerusalem....----

I'm the proud city of the lord, and speak of Him in a hundred toungues


----here I have become who I am, I am the center of all dwelling, and my words 
comprise only praise-----

Davids gratitude  has resounded within me' I lay in twilights of sounding harps 
and in breathed the evening star.


-----praise of the lord, as david, sings to the chief musician, sounding harps 
reflected against the twilight, not dark, but in a moments time one floats on 
gratitude as thye breathe in, and out the evening star.....----

My paths lead to the east- 

and if long ago the people forsook me
They did It so I might grow, and widen my solitudes
From one new beginning to the next....



----hmmm, my path leads towards the son, I lead towards u jesus and into 
forgiveness for what was forsaken, for In that forgivess, is ur growing  love, I 
find this is solutide and grow from one new beginning to the next, need not plan 
a future of them, as my path leads only widening, as my eyes are wide open to 
All the praise, gratitude, change and forgiveness.......
