Forgive, LOVE and Live...


The ego would rather kill us in our sleep smothering us with pillows of fear, suffering and misery, than allow us the peace of LOVE and the joy of giving; for that reason, as if there need be other, the ego, the false self must die, so we may end our surviving and begin our living. And how shall we slay this foulest demon, ego, by embracing it fully with humility, thankfulness and the true power found in forgiving.

To forgive it has been said; "is to (give) room (for) healing".

We must give ourselves that room to heal, if ever we hope to truly live...

just LOVE...

Making LOVE, to LOVE...


This experience in the flesh false, is a one night stand with a stranger; while the experience of our soul true, is making love to that which we are eternally wed.

The lie of lust may give briefest moments of imagined ecstasy, but truth of love gives forever fulfillment, lasting peace...

just LOVE...

"We lie together after making love,
quite, touching along the length
of our bodies, familiar touch of
the long married.
After Making Love We Hear Footsteps

Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor
imagination nor both together go to the
making of genius. Love, love, love, that is
the soul of genius."
~ Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

The Thriving Soul...


The sun kisses night fond adieu
Choirs of songbirds sing praise to the dawn
A stream rain nourished rushes gently by
The breeze caresses morning dew from leaves on trees
While giveaway eagle gobbles out the day's greetings;

Life abundantly abounds
LOVE saturating surrounds
Alive my soul thrives...

just LOVE...
