   " and all must love the human form

        in heathen,  turk or jew :

.    where Mercy Love and Pity dwell

  there God is dwelling to."                                       - William Blake -

DAY PRAYER

 

Do we dare to live the life of freedom, responsibility, maturity and the dialogical affirmation of mutuality?  Do we dare to be the change we desire?  Will we come together in the late twilight to be the sacred activism and the shaping of God into prayer that is an embracing compassion and our deliverance from the addictions of greed and violence, ignorance, hatred and fear?

 

Enter then together the pattern of biotic solidarity in the conversion of inner evolution into a spiritual and cultural revolution, of eco-sanity, participatory democracy and world peace, and worlshift toward a new and renewing commensality of generations, races, identities and species.

 

Through the defense of life, return to the sacredness of life.  Through acts of beauty help to return us and Earth with us, to dignity and reverence; to the gypsy sojourn of belonging, and to the holy pilgrimage of balance.

 

Let us arise from here, in the hour of prayer, and Earth walk together.  Let us stand, side by side, hand in hand, interfacing, in the strong Circle of Life.  Let us quest—to discover and recover—the sublimity of wonderment and the solidity of trust.

 

Let us be and in our being learn to let be—neither cool or coldly or lukewarm, but with a heat of passion that connects us, de profundis, into the pathos of all.

Happy New Year 2012, and may your hearts be adorn with loving grace. We are never alone; guardian angels are always with us guiding our thoughts, words and deeds. Just close your eyes and be still for a moment. Blessings to all - Shells of San Fancisco

'may your peace come not from having the things you want......  but from wanting the things that you already have.'

Hear the voice of the Bard

Who Present, Past and Future sees:

Whose ears have heard the Holy Word

That walked among the ancient trees,

 

Calling the lapsed Soul

And weeping in the evening dew:

That might control the starry pole

And fallen, fallen light renew!

 

"O Earth, O Earth return

Arise from out the dewy grass:

Night is worn and the morn

Rises from the slumberous mass.

 

Turn away no more:

Why wilt thou turn away?

The starry floor, the watery shore

Is given thee till the break of day."

 

   by  William Blake

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.

 

- Auguries of Innocence, by William Blake

Hello dear.
The summer will go now. Flowers and insects come back in the next year. I'll wait and be glad, if I can see you 2012.
