I am a wanderer. I would say that I am a seeker, but sometimes I have no idea what I might be seeking, so I will stick with wanderer. This blog is more a public journal than anything. I don't claim to have life figured out. I simply stumble from mystery to mystery, and share my reflections along the way. Sometimes I feel burdened, and trudge. Sometimes? Well sometimes grace breaks through, and its time to dance.

I love the way you blush, Lord
I like the way you blush, God,
The season spring.
The season summer, the season, fall the hour of winter
And that magnificent season, existence!
Yes I love the way you blush, my Lord, when we are sometimes
near. (Hafiz)
There is something about intimacy
Is bares us
That strips us naked
And leaves up naked and pimply
In the fresh breeze of existence
God makes me blush
At the sheer audacity of the divine knowledge of me
God knows me
And that knowledge strips me of all pretense
All sense that I can somehow pretend
I am feel like an emperor
But the emperor has no clothes
Love does that
In the presence of love
We are stripped down to the core of who we
When we are known
Really known
And still are seen with the eyes of love
What is there to do but blush
At such transparency
At such acceptance
What is there to do
But say “thank you”
God
Thank you, my love
My child
My friend
Our cheeks are rosy
With our joy
