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.

Send out goodness
“If you send out goodness from yourself, or if you share
that which is happy or good within you, it will all come back to you multiplied
ten thousand times. In the kingdom of love there is no competition; there is no
possessiveness or control. The more love you give away, the more love you will
have.”
― John O'Donohue, Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom

funny it is not
it is not
that when out of need
or greed
out of fear
we hug to ourselves
the blessings of life
in whatever shape they might come
whether those blessings be
food or clothes, housing or
just pure wealth
the colder and less satisfying they get
the less they fill and nourish
and the more and more we need
the more we must grasp and compete
but the more we are able to be free is our souls
secure in Sacred Love and Presence
and the more we expend our blessings
for the benefit of others
the more we send out goodness
whether we be an individual
a company
or a nation
then the more we are surrounded by others
and warmed by love
and embraced by grace
the ended the lesson
for this day
