Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

let love discover you


“We do not need to go out and find love; rather, we need to be still and let love discover us.”
― John O'Donohue, Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom
______________________________

Looking for love, is something most of us do

We urgently seek to find
Acceptance
Passion
Connection

We try so hard to find Mr. Right
The Perfect Woman

We act witty
We brag
We preen
We try to impress

But sadly it is all a matter of us sending our energy out
Flooding the space around us

Our efforts become a spiritual moat,
A barrier to what we seek

Instead of trying so hard
We should, fundamentally, quit trying

We should stop
Breathe
And Just be

Open,
Quiet
Listening
Ready to receive

Oh yes, there is giving to be done
But our biggest need to embrace the love, as it comes

Welcoming it into our heart
Our Soul
Welcoming the other
Welcoming the Other, who is love
