Letting go…

to let it be

letting go

water crystal healers

Dedicated to Tersia Burger

***

between the deep sighs

tears fall one by one

ridding the pitchblende

ever so slowly they form

quietly…

silently descend

water tears

cascading

will they ever end

water crystal healers

nature taking care of you

helping you transcend

freeing you

until…you find yourself

home again…

Namaste

Namaste, I honor the place in you in which the entire universe dwells. I honor the place in you which is of love, of truth, of light, and of peace. When you are in that place in you and I am in that place in me we are one.

Namaste is a common Hindi greeting or salutation. I found the above definition of “Namaste” so intrinsically beautiful! To me, the greeting, Namaste, opens up the possibility of accepting myself as a person worthy of love and goodness and, in turn, receiving the other into my life, as I resonate with their love and goodness. This greeting says hello to me with the wind of love. This greeting opens up to me the possibility of living in harmony with all human beings. Namaste initiates the meeting with someone with such profound respect and moves my inner being with great hope and future for all of us. This greeting makes me happy!

Namaste! (Photo credit: Nomad Thru Life.)

Namaste

Darling, I love you

I love the truth within you that runs deep like a canyon ravine

I love the light traveling within you so pristine

I love the peace within you, that is as gentle as the night’s dream

Namaste

Darling, I love me

I love the truth within myself that I have learned to find

I love the light that I have been given from my birth in the Eternal Mind

I love the peace I feel when quiet and silent in the Divine

Namaste

I love the truth, the light, the peace in you

I love the truth, the light, the peace in me

Together, we find love and eternity

Lady of the London Ghetto — the forgotten artist

Complacency of society

Left her alone in her apartment

But one day I happened upon her

She looked thin and frail

Her hair …wired out white

She was alone

Except for the people who covered her walls

Charcoal and pen on every scrap of paper she could find

Intimate…intriguing…the faces intense

Their expressions mesmerizing

They alone spoke to her

They were her daily companions

She was the designated poor…

She was alone

But in her solitude she found joy

In her drawings

Not recognized by society…

A profound artist among the faces

Her work was forever lost

Her name is not known

But an ARTIST she was

I was 24…she was 54

Now forty years later

Her work walks through my mind
