“If I’m the problem, let me start by saying that I’m sorry.   As, I do not intend to show you harm.
If I’m the problem, let me find the solution.   As, I am a problem-solver.

If I’m the problem, let me clean up my act.   As, I only want to reveal Light.

If I’m the problem, let me lighten the darkness.   As, by igniting my Eternal Flame in your heart.”

–Penna

The thought manifests as the word;
The word manifests as the deed;
The deed manifests into habit;
And habit hardens into character;
So watch the thought and its ways with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings….

As the shadow follows the body, as we think, so we become.

- FROM THE DHAMMAPADA
(SAYINGS OF THE BUDDHA)

Oh, Creativity rush into me and flood my head with thoughts of love and beautiful iambs to speak.

Work through me like a cool breeze seeping its way from a tiny dark space,

And into a mountain of open air of open awareness.

Let my mouth express words of truth, and let my heart have absolute knowingness.

Let me rise above and fly high – and light myself up into a tiny sparkle – that explodes into infinite pieces of glory.

Grace…

“Day and night my
only thought is why
I am ignorant of the
states of my heart.
From where have I
come?
And why have I
come?
Where am I headed?
Will you not show
me my home?
How rapturous the
day I fly towards the
Friend’s abode,
beating my wings in
hope
of reaching that
home.”

Rumi

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow–
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand–
How few! yet how…

May the heads of all countries and races be guided to understand that men of all nations are physically and spiritually one: physically one, because we are the descendants of common parents-the symbolic Adam and Eve; and spiritually one, because we are the immortal children of our Father, bound by eternal links of brotherhood.

Let us pray in our hearts for a League of Souls and a United World. Though we may seem divided by race, creed, color,…

Beauty & The Bull

When she awakens in the morning, her beauty awakens with her.

Beauty is to the Bull like water is to the body.

It is a necessity one cannot have life without.

Her magical glow covers her like a halo from a ray of sun.

She is his halo.

When the Beauty teases the Bull, it isn’t a red cape that he sees – oh, no!

It is the aura of her sensuously beating red heart.

Beauty blurs his vision and…

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I’m telling lies.
I say,
It’s in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I…

Thanksgiving is the appointed time
for focusing on the good in our lives.
In each of our days,
we can find small blessings,
but too often we overlook them,
choosing instead to spend our time
paying attention to problems.
We give our energy
to those who cause us trouble
instead of those who bring peace.
Starting now,
let’s be on the lookout
for the bits of pleasure in each hour,
and appreciate the people who
bring love and light to everyone
who is blessed to know them.
You are one of those people.
On…
