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.

Living from the heart
The heart is beautiful precisely because it is where God
dwells
The heart is the divine sanctuary
John
O’Donohue, Book of Blessings
___________________________________________________________
at our core
we are beautiful
each of us is a precious, amazing soul
a dwelling for the Sacred
and at times
that splendor
shines through the cracks and fissures
of our dry and brittle
and all too common
selves
and there is
love
sadly we often worry more about the surface cracks
than about our hearts
our attempts to fix those cracks and fissures are doomed to
failure
all we end up doing, with such an emphasis
on surface things
is block the love
so we must constantly go to the deep level of the heart
we must be the Sacred (Spirit)
there
where it lives within us
and fan the flame
of faith
the more fire in our hearts for the Sacred
the more light and love
finds its way through us
into the world
and God knows
the world needs light
and love
