Tiger Riding for Beginners

It was a moment 
 of silent spaciousness.

In the midst of a fight,
 there was no enemy --
  just the effortless
   dance of the thing.

That moment 
 expanded to the infinite,
  & snapped back 
   to one tick after the tock.

Since then, 
 no catastrophe has felt 
  too great for a smile.

Something is all a glow

Blue Stained Glass

There has certainly been a mystery in the skies this week. From the moon glowing iridescent colors. The sunset of red-orange Tuesday evening before a snowstorm. Large bow shaped clouds with arrows gliding through it. But one item seems to stand out this week, a green iridescent orb. Either above the sky or below it according to my camera ‘s eye and my eye. Something to ponder; What is creation trying to convey to us with these mysterious glowing skies?

Timelines

In Heaven On Earth

It has become increasingly evident there are two main timelines in existence today, one based on fear conditioning [ie. mainstream media, world wide traumatic events, and “other” negative influences] while the second one is based on heart-centeredness, creation and joy, love and peace. Even in our volatile world, some of us have learned how to walk the higher timeline as we live happy and secure in the knowledge we are surrounded by Divine Protection. Yes we really do sleep soundly at night, really do experience joy, and really do know that the evil that had its grip upon this earth for millennia, is vanquished for all time. It most certainly does not look like that now, for this tenaciously evil stronghold that held this world captive must crumble and die in order for our civilization to rise into its Prophesied Destiny.

Wait?

openingyourmindblog

Is there a tendency to delay expressing our feelings? Do people think of important things that did not get said, when they hear of the passing of someone close to them? When someone says, something to the effect of, “Oh, I wanted to tell them…….”, does it not seem like a tragedy? If someone wants to say something meaningful or impactful, why not say it? What is the advantage of waiting? Does waiting lead to regrets? Does waiting make it easier to express ourselves? Does waiting make what we say better? Does waiting protect us from revealing our deeper feelings?

“To speak is not an option, it is a must.”–Lois Hatcher

If we care for someone, do we not want them to know how we feel about them, how much we value them, how much we love them? Is sharing these authentic feelings more important than keeping them inside, like…

I Will Catch You

An Author You'll Remember

I know it’s scary
To dream too high,
To think too ahead in the future.
But if that is what you really want,
Then fly, dear.
If you fall,
I will catch you.

I know it’s nerve-wracking
To actually take that leap
Of faith and everything you have.
But if that will make you happy,
Then fly, dear.
If you fall,
I will catch you.

I know it’s weird
To be the odd one in a room,
To be not understood.
But if it will give you peace,
Then fly, dear.
If you fall,
I will catch you.

I know it doesn’t feel right
To think only about yourself sometimes,
To be termed selfish.
But if it makes you feel whole,
Then fly, dear.
If you fall,
I will catch you.

I know you are thinking of me,
To make sure I don’t feel
Treated unfairly or left out.
