Let it all fall away Passively, quietly. Do not cry out or force and do not be numb but feel, What you have every right to feel. Now, this is the point Where your trust in God, must be immense. Trust. Let it all fall away.

Wake UP World

November 28, 2013

Wake UP World. Stop your dreamy slumber, where nightmares unfold and keep you under. Wake up, those demons have led you asunder. Your love and his mercy, in night, h as shined through, and here I AM, having Deja Vu Our waking dreams we're told to suppress Lest you find your self like the rest, of these day dreamy fools, these Naives, these ignorants, who see beyond hill tops, graves and cement. They see the dawn and its glorious Rise. Thy will be done, let your people survive the heart-shaking tremors of a human kind, reverberating through all, like a bell that has chimed, but forever ago, this bell was struck to a tune we all know, but have learned to mistrust. so Wake UP people. Now it is time, To take back our world, and claim Us as your kind, To plant and to reap, to eat and to sleep, with patience and waiting, yet called to our feet. Wake UP Humankind, These chills down my spine, did not come from fear, but from this place we did find, within our hearts, without our mind.

Turn your head now baby Just Spit Me Out

Feeling underappreciated and saddened at how it is possible to pour your heart out, give your time and all you have to give to another person and have them spit in your face. I had the epiphany that this is how God must feel when his children sin. He pours his unending love out for us, he gives of all he is For Us and we spit in the face of the almighty and go about doing contradictory and counterproductive things- and he keeps loving us all the same. I will continue to feel unappreciated and taken from, as long as I continue to take for granted the blessings in my life. Once I learn to give back to God in appreciation and gratitude, the same way I would give back to anyone who would go out of their way for me- then I will know what being loved is meant to feel like.

To the Ledge

February 26, 2014

We've made this trip so many times around, it makes me dizzy.This beautiful, tragic, spinning kaleidoscope I've seen. Through your eyes, deep, in ancient times until the new, It was always you. Through the black holes of the windows to my soul. Something has started, you must be feeling this too! The tune has changed, we danced so long but now we sing. All the songs on the radio are beginning to sound the same. The people I talk to and the signs I see are making a strong impression on me. Larger than I could have ever believed. I could argue and convince, we are as we used to be. But my soul knows different, and the rest of the world is with me. You say you want to climb every mountain, visit every creek ... because one day this earth will perish and be inherited unto the meek. This all moves along at the speed of sound, such a powerful force. It's all you and me, and everyone with us. Should we jump up in praise, Or fall to our knees? Bringing to rest the su...

Dancing With Kings

August 01, 2013

My bare feet situated in the dirt, pebbles and pine needles strobing heat in red and orange waves, hugs my skin The wind playing in my hair like a cat with soft new yarn The timelessness of this scene stretching beyond history's time. Peacefully content and warm, those I love, sleep near nothing lacking, nothing needed, we have been provided for And as I voice my praise, in gratitude of God's mercy My sights are directed to the towering Kings of this forest. Silence. Utter silence as if the world were put on mute, my gaze transfixed on these massive statues, and I see. The wind, I know to be as one animal, melting into their stone they danced in silent magnitude against the glowing night sky. My mouth opened to no words which could justify I could only smile deeply and feel the sudden hot rain I laughed and my heart danced with those Kings, in the oneness of the wind, which has became my breathe.

Path of Purity

February 29, 2016

Beth 9 How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to your word. 10 I seek you with all my heart; Do not let me stray from your commands. 11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. 12 Praise be to you, LORD; teach me your decrees. 13 With my lips I recount all the laws that have come from your mouth. 14 I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches. 15 I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways. 16 I delight in your decrees; I will ...

What Do You Say

January 02, 2014

As I raise three children on my own, my daily vocabulary consists of "No," "Bring that here," "Put that down," and "What do you say?" No one inquires how I am feeling, or what my plans are. No one offers to assist with the daily chores. No one discusses the world events or local news. My lips stay sealed, my stare remains distant. The occasional friendly call seems to always close with a sigh- I just have nothing to talk about. People ask, "What you been up to?" I wish I had something to share. Something to bubble up into friendly chatter. But my new refrigerator just doesn't carry any conversational weight, nor does the pile of laundry waiting to be folded. My future plans and ambitions don't glitter against this backdrop. They seem like the fairy tales I read, cute and fantastical. Ridiculous because what is a goal for tomorrow when I can't even complete the tasks for today, the simple ones. And if I did, WHO CARES? N...

Somber

November 15, 2015

Somber, slumbering but awake. A slow, cool waltz of a day. Time undefined in wonder. Somber, somewhere close to melancholy A wandering lilt of a day. Nothing passed, nothing to save. Somber, silent conversations. A hazy glance of distant days. Fulfilled in lack of want. Somber, sighing in a sober daze.

Suicidal power trip

How do I just move about my daily business? How can so many stick their head in the sand and just Take It!? We have become so focused on our personal woes and tribulations, our daily survival and life long pursuits, we can't bear to take on anyone else's burden or cause, nonetheless step back and think about our global community. Everyone is dying to make some kind of change in this insanity!!! At this time in our human history we have grown past needing direct supervision and guidance. We do not need a father or chief to control and contain us. Our minds have been freed, even as we sit imprisoned by mindless drone work. We, no longer, must fear mother nature as a calculating threat to our kind. Lighting does not strike out of anger and droughts are not punishment for our deeds. We do not need these explanations any longer. With a better understanding of the earth, and a more humble view of our part in it, we can live amongst each other, as free people. We are all capable...

The Law of Reciprocity

November 30, 2013

Wikipedia Defines: Reciprocity (res-i-PROS-sity) or RECIPROCAL ( ree-SIP-ro-cal) As a social construct, in response to friendly actions, people are much nicer; conversely, in response to hostile actions they are much more nasty. The Bible, in Luke 6:38 says; " Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you ." My Take On THE LAW OF RECIPROCITY In communications studies, this "Law," is the foundation for forming new relationships and for healing the old ones as well. How do you know when too much is too much, or when you're not giving enough? The "Law of Reciprocity" (pronounced Resi-pros-ity) is a great way to measure your actions. When I call someone, we chat, we hang up and then....do I call again, do I wait? When I offer some personal life details to a new friend, do they counter with a st...
