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.

Soul within Soul within Soul
If anyone asks you to say who you are, say without
hesitation,
soul within soul
within soul
Rumi,
The Soul of Rumi,Trans. Barks, pp.

I’ve got soul
You’ve got soul
Our souls participate in the Sacred
More soul
the Sacred is everywhere
our souls are in our body
but our souls reach out
to touch creation
and yes,
the Soul
that is Creator
creating
and thus we are linked
intimately
to the divine within
to the divine without
and thus we are transfigured
and those we meet
are transfigured
no longer white, or black
Christian or Muslim
old or young
male or female
we are all precious souls
and we are part of
we belong
to each
other
