“Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?” Lao Tzu

 

Do you have the patience

To let the water clear

To allow the mud to settle

To watch it without fear

 

Do you have the patience

To walk the extra mile

To follow paths less traveled

To open and to smile

 

Do you have the patience

To watch the flower bloom

To clear your mind of what you know

To always make more room

 

Do you have the patience

To babble with the brook

To silence all your stories

To take another look

 

Do you have the patience

To listen deep within

To hear the voice of Wisdom

To eagerly begin

 

Do you have the patience

To let the water clear

To allow the mud to settle

To pause and bring Life near

 

Do you have the patience?

 

It Is So and So It Is

So Be It

Peace & Blessings

” Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life…” Psalm 23:67

Through time and space I’ve traveled

Setting foot on this terrain

I use them both as avenues

Yet unlimited I remain

Eternity, my birthplace

No beginning and no end

My choices surely infinite

When Mind I carefully tend

The treasure chest is open

And Truth outpours to me

Embodying what’s given

Will ever set me free

Transformed, I know the permanence

Of Heaven here on earth

Expressions of this Infinite Mind

Through each is given birth

And Blessings fall like petals

Reality revealed

When my mind joins the One Mind

No thing will be concealed

And surely Goodness follows me

With Mercy ever near

Abiding in the Presence

Eternity is here

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality… I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.”  Martin Luther King, Jr.

The starless midnight

Dissolving Now

As Daylight surely breaks

 

The dawn of Truth

Emerging Now

Gives Light, that overtakes

 

This gentle rise

O’retaking Now

Dissolves the dark and then

 

The flame of Love

Heartwarming Now

Gives Happiness again

 

The veil is lifting

Seeing Now

A view of life that’s more

 

The Light of Mind

Transforming Now

Gives all an open door

 

The daybreaks bright

For Peace is Now

The final word is Love

 

And Brotherhood 

Is Known right Now

The Truth we’re worthy of

 

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“I want to know God’s thoughts. The rest are details.”

Albert Einstein

I want to know God’s thoughts

For Here is where Truth lies

Like golden threads announcing

Emerging Butterflies

I want to know God’s thoughts

In stillness they arrive

The whispers of Eternity

The voice within the dive

I want to know God’s thoughts

To peer beyond the veil 

To see the Miracles untold

In Oneness, to inhale

I want to know God’s thoughts

To speak with Heart and Soul

Aware, Alert, Creating

Vibrations of the Whole

I want to know God’s thoughts

With Mind centered in Peace 

The Essence and the Heart of Love

The Goodness, the Release

I want to know God’s thoughts

The rest are just details

Moments scattered, caught in Time

Markers, paths and trails

I want to Know God’s thoughts

Let God Be God as me

The image and the likeness

Magnificent and Free

It Is So and So It Is

So Be It

Peace & Blessings

“To work with God’s happiness bubbling in the soul is to carry a portable paradise within you wherever you go.” 

Paramahansa Yogananda

I woke today with happiness

I rose up feeling fine

I listened to the falling rain

I felt it wash my Mind

The freshness of the morning

The coolness of the air

The fragrance of the blossoms

Assured me I was there

It was Paradise I woke to

It was vibrant, it was clear

It was beckoning me to enter

It was whispering in my ear

“Just stay in this environment

No need to run away

Hold happiness within your soul

Know Paradise all day”

I loved the simple elegance

I loved the pulsing beat

I loved the feeling that I felt

I’m home and now complete

I’ll live this day in Paradise

I’ll sleep in its embrace

I’ll wake again tomorrow

I’ll stay within this space

It is Paradise I wake to

It is vibrant, it is clear

It is beckoning me to live Here

It is whispering in my ear

“Just stay in this environment

No need to run away

Hold happiness within your soul

Know paradise all day”

It Is So and So It Is

Peace & Blessings

“If you know these things, happy are you if you do them.” John 13:17

Within my heart there shines a dream

It moves me through each day

A Purpose to my Being

A light along my way

It was placed there in Eternity

Like diamonds in the sky

Creating there a firmament

Of Goodness in my “Why”

Why have I been called to be

a living, breathing entity?

Why does the sun rise up each day

with light that chases dark away?

Why do snowflakes fill the air

blanketing crystals everywhere?

Why am I here? What can I give?

When will I know just how to live?

It’s written in my heart you know

For you, as well, it’s there

Just breathe and listen deep inside

And live to give and share

With Purpose, Passion we arrive

With Magnificence in place

With Goodness scattered like the stars

With Love to fill all space

So shine your light

Let it be known, you have arrived in Time

An Attribute of Goodness  

To live your life Divine

So Be It

Peace & Blessings

“Dare to believe in the reality of your assumption and watch the world play its part relative to to its fulfillment.”  Neville Goddard

Standing on the mountain top

Sailing with the breeze

Walking in the forest

Sitting under trees

 

Rolling in the meadow

Spinning like a top

Weaving flower garlands

Watching petals drop

 

Jumping over rainbows

Skipping stones on lakes

Diving into ocean waves

Doing double takes

 

 

Living in the moment

Taking time to feel

Breathing into all of life

Opening to the Real

 

Believe it Now and see it 

Freedom in your view

Feel each grand experience

Watch them come to you

 

It Is So and So It Is
