Living the Sacred

Yours is to live it, not reveal it

                                Helen Luke, quoted by Mark Nepo

The life of Christ is his most basic teaching

                                Thich Nhat Hanh

“Words are cheap,”

or so they say…

O Sacred one,

I am so full of words

full of thoughts

rules

opinions

advice

and I am often quick to speak

and slow to listen

as I move through this day

O one whose message was his life

may I be slow to speak

and quick to listen

may I listen deeply

and offer only loving speech

and thus my I experience

and share

the presence of

the Sacred
