 immerse yourself in your heart

speak from your heart

be your heart, act from it

everything is found there 

let that be your residing place 

let that be your temple and your sanctuary 

let that be where every thought is birthed

love environs me. what is to give light must endure

burning. 

tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. and that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in pursuit of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with god and with eternity. 

the stars are speaking to me tonight, they are saying to me, softly, you and I are no different. we are made of the same kind of love and consciousness that turns this world everyday. 

being in love with myself gets me so stoned

on the beach, under the sun. I could spend lifetimes in their eternity, on the endless shore. perhaps I already have. I love strangers. I love to wonder, "What did it take for you and I to end up right here?" What will we gain or lose? What will I go home with and put into my hot tea the following morning? I don't forget a face. I sure do forget names. I have been crying so much lately. I've put a cast on to stop the picking. That is the only way to heal, isn't it? I have my loved ones, so I have it all.

dear God, I've been praying again. not in the way I used to, though. I hope you don't mind.

love transforms us. no matter how long we hold it in our trembling hands.
