Reflection for September 28, 2011


Meditation

Sitting in Stillness

Listening within

Waking up

Staying awake

Being here right now

With the presence of the Divine

Getting more aware of the Essence within

Feeling the deep connection to all that is

Letting go and letting God

“All is like it is and is not”

And all is well.

Om /Amen

Namaste,

H.G.


Words to the sculpture:

She is sitting in the presence of the Sacred

She is a fountain and when there is no water

She is a container for roses, flowers and love.

Reflection for September 21, 2011



Choose Life,

only that and always,

and at whatever risk.

To let Life leak out,

to let it wear away by the mere passage of time,

to withhold giving it and spreading it,

is to choose

nothing.

Reflection for September 14, 2011


I’ve decided that poetry is best considered as a science. So, just as hydrogen and oxygen are bound together to create water, the force that binds them can be compared to poetry. Poetry is an invisible energy that exists between everything, holding it together, giving it meaning. The job of every human being is to search for the poetry hidden within the midst of things. So, this brings us to the role of poets in society. Some people write poetry, and some people live poetry. The person who lives poetry is the greater of the two.

My note: Are there other words besides “poetry” which would fit? What do you think? Judy D.

Reflection for September 7, 2011
























JVR

Mary, render whole our grief


In peace

Replenish our earthly time

In place

Receive our quiet lament

In prayer

Reveal our love of life
