I honor the place in you where the entire universe resides,
I honor the place in you of love, of light, of truth, of peace.
I honor the place within you, where if you are in that place in you,
and I am in that place in me, we are one.
Truesong's Keep
Exploration
Go placidly amid the noise and haste and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly;and listen to otheres, even the dull and ignorant they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength and spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all it's sham and drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy.
Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Psalm 51:10
I wish you love, and strength, and faith, and wisdom, Goods, gold enough to help some needy one. I wish you songs, but also blessed silence, And god's sweet peace when every day is done. Dorothy McDonald
There is no power of love so hard to get and keep as a kind voice. Watch it day by day as a pearl of great price, for it is worth more than the finest pearl hid in the sea. A kind voice is to the heart like light is to the eye. It is a light that sings as well as shines.
If there is anything better than to be loved, it is loving.
Living the past is a dull and lonely business; looking back strains the neck muscles and causes you to bump into people not going your way. Ferber
Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.
Never witness a tear with apathy or indifference. Words, looks, actions--all may be artificial; but a tear is unequivocal; it comes direct from the heart, and speaks at once the language of truth, nature, and sincerity!!

LOVE
I Corith. 14:1
Love seeks not limits
but outlets........
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven.
Standing on the edge the Meadow...
Cliffs surge in majestic Surrounding
With a wisp of air, the Meadow...
Feels his flight as he is Rounding.
Thunderous in his Encounter
Feels she the breath from the Beast
Thereupon they Eye one Another
Suspect of who feels the Least.
She closes the Distance
With calm Deliberation...
A child that Knows
Of the dragon's Evolution.
With outstretched Hands,
And the same hidden Fears,
Near they're Drawn,
Senses she the dragon's Tears.
The people cry Nay
Rising behind the Two,
Good cannot Come of this
A dragon you must not Woo!
Together they Circle...
Twirl round, round, they Go
Closer.... Yet Still
Paying heed to the people? No!
Great Hesitation
They're face to Face
Small tender Hands
Caress the Giant's grand breast
Deep throated Rumbles
Silent.... the two Unite
Purple smoke it does Swirl
Ner'a person in Sight.
Beauty you See
Is in the eye of the Beholder
The Beast that is there
Is a genuine Protector.
The child she Saw
The beast he did Counter
You see what was Missing...
Was one from the Other.

Long Time Friend
Our friendship is grounded
in trust long unbroken,
A force ever powerful,
soft and unspoken.
The depth of our feelings,
the warmth of our ways,
Bring freedom and honesty
into our days.
Our friendship adds light
to the shawdows of living
And shares the rich bounty
and harvest of giving.
It lifts up our hearts
on the wings of concern
And lets equal kindness
come back in return.
It tells us its story
in memories pure
And says through its past
that our bond will endure.
It lets us remember
and never forget
The treasure fate sent...
Long ago when we met.
If the Eyes had no tears.
A site for Lovers
A tendency to think and act spontaneously,
Rather than from fears based on past experiences;
An unmistakable ability to enjoy each moment;
A loss of interest in judging self;
A loss of interest in conflict;
A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others;
A loss of ability to worry;
Frequent attacks of smiling through the heart;
Increasing susceptibility to love extended by others;
As well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it;
An increasing tendency to let things happen
Rather than to manipulate them and make them happen.

My corner of
the world.
prejudice, blinds. ignorance, retards. indifference, deafens. hate amputates. in this way do some people disable their souls. better the so called handicapped body, if a choice could be made, than a handicapped soul. for bodies last a lifetime only. how sad to be an individual who by lack of love, kindness, and understanding has self-induced handicaps that will be carried into eternity.
