reclaiming our spiritual nature - collectively...

"If women hadn't forsaken and forgotten their inner power (collectively speaking, this was a long time ago, but each one of us is doing it again by every choice we make and everything we believe) we wouldn't be trying to reclaim it now.

A journey into our own interior is really the one journey worth making. It means sitting down quietly, being willing to relinquish what is not true by allowing it to drop away like dead leaves, and then embracing without presumptuous expectation what arises...our true Spiritual nature."

 than the Love that resides within our very own being."

notice how Light weaves itself into dreams...

There You Are again...

Flower of Life Crystal Grid mat

Ever since I stepped out of imagination
and into the Heart of things
I have become so much less spiritual.
Heaven, hell and earth
hold no meaning for me anymore .
For I am neither coming
nor going
nor staying put.
All I do is notice all the various ways
that Light weaves itself into dreams.

When someone asks me who they are
or what God is
I smile inside and whisper to the Light:
There you go again, pretending.

the gift of solitude...

 ~ Thomas Merton
 "Today more than ever,

we need to recognize

 that the gift of solitude
is not ordered to the acquisition 

of strange contemplative powers,
but first of all 

to the recovery of one's deep self,
and to the renewal of an authenticity
which is twisted out of shape
by the pretentious routines 

of a disordered togetherness."
