I'm Blessed

You are the peace of all things calm
You are the place to hide from harm
You are the light that shines in dark
You are the heart's eternal spark
You are the door that's open wide
You are the guest who waits inside
You are the stranger at the door
You are the calling of the poor
You are my Lord and with me from ill
You are the light, the truth, the way
You are my Saviour this very day.

As raindrops and snowflakes..Are not all one

and the same..Only the temperature location

time situation and circumstances..Ultimately

shall appear..In each others Life Picture frame..…

November's Latest Top e-Giving News

As Thanksgiving is upon us, no matter what your views about this day, may it bring a moment of pause for all that we are grateful for and the ways we are giving back. This month may you be inspired by our latest e-gifts news and be grateful for all that you have.

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it,

is like wrapping a present and not giving it.

~ William Arthur Ward

Family Time (Addicted Forever?) [Pt. 8]

Emerging slowly, burned only slightly

Torn, slashed, broken down- left

Estimated inaccurately- wound tightly

Recent incident involving auto theft

Not expected- from my perspective- blind

Immediate encounter- waiting, resigned

Took it off- lost the key- no-mind

Years spent weary waiting to align

Immersion- suburban excursion, uncertain

Now used to being used it comes back through

Finally taking a break- memory’s last curtain

Infirm- only… Continue

I go to different places, and I talk about peace. I know there are people who say, “Peace—how can there be peace?” What I am talking about is real, is viable, and it can last for a foreseeable future. It’s called peace. War is not a viable option and it is not foreseeable, because if people just keep fighting, there will only be one person… Continue

Ponderables

Ponderables

=========

The following is something to ponder:

If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a

Roof overhead and a place to sleep ...

You are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change

In a dish someplace ...

You are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness ...

DEATH: YOUR POWER TO CHANGE IT

Hi My Friend,

I come to you this hour, only to let you know how powerful you are. I say this with all truth from the bottom of my heart because I kow that the positive vibrations of your thoughts and prayers can help me through this trying time of grief over the loss of my mother. It is however, a shame that we only use this kind of energy when crisis hits. What I mean is that, through the power and strength of your thoughts and words much good come into the world. The only… Continue

Thanksgiving

It is the eve of Thanksgiving and I just found out that two people who are connected to people I love have cancer. One of them with a cancer that killed my best friend in the world. Colleen Davies. However Colleen died because she didn't want to be here any longer. She was depressed with her life here and truly didn't want to be here any longer. As a healer, I have found that depression/dispair allows the body to become vulnerable to disease in all forms, including your own cells becoming… Continue

Gravity (= Pi ^ 2) [Pt. VII]

”Speaking Encoded - for the Good of the Nation”

Sun Jul 23, 2006 12:53 pm

Sorry I'm late...

I was

Very

Literally

Affected by the blackout

No phone, either

If I had my laptop,

I'd use it to calculate

The probability

Of those same two events

Occurring in simultaneity...

But my battery was dead…

Gravity = 9.86 = (Pi * Pi)!

2,000,000,000 digits. Have. Be. Come. Here.

What Does It Take To Sober Up a Drunk? (#3/3)

"Drug of Choice (A - Z)"

an allergic reaction, alternating

between, beneath, bourne by blood

carrying chemicals; coursing all directions

dominating, dimming- donning for me my mask

every eery shred- doubt- eeks in

feeding on, fomenting from these formulations

gravity grabs tighter; green, grounded

hooded, hopeless- horrified by my diagnosis

irritated; in fact, entirely ired- immune

jailed, jogging in place, jet-set to… Continue

The silent glance

The silent glance

Am I good enough? Available in exemplary sense of us all and labelled from the fact that no child can bear to punching out from their parents' patronage and approval.

This often means that children are forced to restrain their natural emotion impulses to be accepted and continue to "check up" throughout his childhood, whether he / she is approved or not.

Nothing is for a child as… Continue

Prayer for Us All!

Beyond me is where I really am

Beyond the world that I see

For I am not of the world

Nor my brother nor my sister

My ability to know this

Thus leads me to my Father's Peace

For should I no longer question or seek it

Will it be made known to me of returning Home

For within me does it so reside

I surrender thus to myself all the things I fear

Beyond my present self, by His Grace

For I exist not as I believe

But as a ray… Continue

Home...

Home is a place you go to find people who understand you. so here i am- at home. writing to you from 'home,' where who and/or what i am seems less important than perceived sustainability. no job? how will you pay your way? strange perspective? medicate.

family. always there to support, but not necessarily in whatever- in 'progress' only, as they define it. but what do you do when you don't want for yourself what your family wants for you? find a 'Family' that does. i don't need… Continue

"I Want To Say Thank You!" (November 25, 2009)

Greetings, family!

Today is Wednesday, November 25--one day before Thanksgiving! I am in Boulder, CO, preparing for my first Thanksgiving in 20 years without any of my "family" family! As I anticipate spending time with my "spiritual" family tomorrow--first at the Center for Spiritual Living Denver, where I will be performing and leading music, and then at "Harmony House," where I will be hosting some dear friends--I find myself swept up in a wave of gratitude; so much so that I had… Continue

Adopt a turkey

In the UK many eat turkeys for Christmas Dinner also, I don't think there is any such scheme operating in the UK.

posted by: Sharon Seltzer

If you are looking for an alternative way to celebrate Thanksgiving that doesn’t include plating a turkey on your table, you might be interested in the Adopt-a-Turkey Project.

Carol M. never dreamed she would be the guardian for a rescued turkey, but now she can’t picture life without her… Continue

HEAVEN #3288 Love Is King, November 25, 2009

God said:

You are here on Earth is to give love to one another. Love gives solace to hearts that are longing for love. The solace you give to one another is a token, beloveds, of My love. You have all the love in the world and in Heaven. You experience, however, that you need solace. You may not even be aware that you need solace, and then someone does something kind, and your heart softens. You may even cry, and then you know how much love your heart was aching for.

So… Continue

The other side of NDE

Photo by michellelavalleecopyright2009 Sunset at Rodeo Beach, San Francisco Hi there! Thanks for the YouTube sites and your words of interest about NDE. I went to a weekly group meeting last night called "A Course In Miracles" and the section read had everything to do about what happens after the body passes from earth allowing for the spirit to soar the soul into the heavens. It states that there are no earthly words to describe such an event because… Continue

What Does It Take To Sober Up a Drunk? (#2/3)

”Delirious Tremors”

shaking, unsure, confused; caught in an endless loop

awake, absorbing, falling; unconscious of the truth

doubted, daunted, disabled; vision blurred by lack of breath

watching- fearing instead of acting, wishing only for a quick death

hoping it will come to me before those around me pass

not seeing how i drain them with each sip from the glass

not seeing how our dreams are so intricately entertwined

my intentions… Continue

THINK OF OTHERS

As you prepare your breakfast think of others.

Don’t forget to feed the pigeons.

As you conduct your wars think of others.

Don’t forget those who want peace.

As you pay your water bill think of others.

Think of those who only have clouds to drink from.

As you go home, your own home, think of others

Don’t forget those who live in tents.

As you sleep and count the planets think of others

There are people who have no place to… Continue
