Does not budge from itself
and does not defend its position Never changes and never appears the same Has nowhere to go and everywhere to be Will not be found and cannot be lost Is this and this

Remembering my worthiness.
Even though I feel completely unworthy, I am completely loving my feeling of complete unworthiness. I am completely worthy to love what I feel. I am devoted to bring as much grace and sweet surrender to this journey. Suffering is not necessary. I walk these precious and healing days with an open heart and I let god do the cleansing. I am thankful now. The only place there is in all of the universe
Is where I am. God and all of creation intimately follows me wherever I go! But I have to be there To notice. May we find our greatest joy be the abundance we share with one another.
God, help me to not react and help me to not repress.
Help me to dialogue with what arises in relationship in a clear direct and strong way - and In a gentle and compassionate way. Remind me that we are all your children. We are all fragile and we are all learning the same truth. I speak my truth like a lion and wholeheartedly seek to hear, feel and understand The truth of another. My truth is peace and clarity. My truth is unconditional love for myself and for another. My truth is the insatiable quest for the truth. I acknowledge my pain and my confusion and my weakness. I see no other as the cause of anything that arises from within me. I open up wider and wider and wider to hug as many emotions a day like amma does for people. I communicate what i feel. I feel what i communicate. For this I strive and pray. I offer compassion for myself and all my relations as we struggle with remembering. I ask for support where i cannot do this on my own. I open my heart to see the truth over and over again. I desire to rest in the truth, in the all encompassing peace of God's love. I start now By bringing peace to all that arises. The mountain top vistas of clarity and insight are just around the corner Of all the bumpy rocks and tricky edges along the journey. This journey of peace is the path through The uneven sidewalks. The unseen potholes. The puddles that muddle my clothing. I trust this journey so deeply and intend to keep on going! To keep on writing poetry, to keep on singing, to keep on pushing my edges Into a new places of expansion. To find grace in those darn potholes. To wash my clothing, agai To keep on communicating, looking inside, listening, loving. I am committed to love above all else. I love above all else. These anxieties! I feel them, I breathe into them
In the depths of my belly - gently and deeply. I cradle my weakness, my confusion The gnawing, seemingly infinite duality of possibilities and contradictions. I surrender the tiring effort To find the solution, to know To understand. I surrender my unknowing to God. To reveal the truth and shed the layers Of confusion and separation. To do all the divine orchestration I couldn't come close to figuring out I am intimate with this pain and I trust God. To truly understand anyone or anything, including oneself, is to forgive. To have such a broad inner vision that we can trust the wholeness of the full picture while in the midst of the complex details is to be at peace. Knowing this, I forgive before understanding.
I will not stop this offering of emotions
To the alter of unconditional love. Nothing wants to be stagnant. Nothing wants to be blocked. This e-motion beckons to flow freely, To return to source. Beyond the layers of protection Love is waiting to be completely revealed. I will love my protection And stop the waiting. I worship at the alter with the holy sacraments Of my emotion. God accepts it all. Here is a handful of poems I posted in 2009 on a site that I had not looked at and had forgotten about until just about a month ago!  Where is the Presence?
In the midst of our closed hearts, in our fear, our stubbornness... The Presence is Here. The presence waits with absolute certainty... She is a piece of lint in the bathtub. Do you see you? I commit myself to see. Question your loneliness Get unresistant! You are ready. Now question your loneliness. Don't believe what you never were. Question your loneliness! Other stuff Reveal to me the love that transcends all this other stuff. I'll know that it's real if I fall in love with all this other stuff. All the real people I have ever created In my minds eye I can see all the real people I have ever created: My family, friends, new acquaintances, lovers... Some miss me, some despise me, Some of them seem confused about me, Sometimes they are angry towards me, other times they are loving towards me. Some of them are stuck in the past, just replaying their interactions with me over and over again. Wow, all these people ever do is think about me. Throw yourself.
Write, listen, sing, dance, Make love to any infinite aspect of this present moment creation as it is Right Now. Fall into beauty. Throw yourself into it And leave no remnants! |
