     Troubled?   

then stay with me

for i am not.

      Lonely?    

a thousand naked

amorous ones dwell

in the caves beneath my eyelids. 

       Riches?

   here is a pick,    

my whole body is an emerald

that begs 'Take me.'

Write all that worries you on a piece of parchment;

offer it to God.

Even from the distance of a…

I publish a exquisite text by David Sparenberg, who is also a member of Peace for the Soul.

Through all of suffering (and life is long and often hard), the brave stand strong. Before the beauty that soars beyond the limitations of time and circumstances, tears are copious and exceed control.



One hears a song, sees a smile,…

I have come into this world to see this:   

the sword drop from men's  hands even at the height of their arc of anger  

because we have finally realized there is just one flesh to wound

and it is His - the Christ's, our Beloved's.

I have come into this world to see this: all creatures hold hands as we pass thru' this miraculous

existence we share on the way to even a greater being of soul,

a being of ecstatic…

"Like most women, my youth was dedicated to raising a family. While music was always my solace, I was unable to make it a priority. Life has dealt me with many blows, each worse than the other. When my husband passed away, my beloved daughter encouraged me to pursue my passion. But soon, I lost her too. To get over the grief, I started to pursue music more…

Dire Straits were an English rock band, formed in 1977 by Mark Knopfler, David Knopfler, John Illsey and Pick Withers. This amazing song Iron Hand was released on the album On every street in 1991. It relates to the Battle of Orgreave during the UK miners' strike.

Lyrics:



with all the clarity of dream

the sky…

During a drought, a woman in Wyoming filled her mouth with water and lay down quietly. A hummingbird is drinking from her gift.

"The mind is like tofu. It tastes like whatever you marinate it in."

From the solemn gloom of the temple 

children run out to sit in the dust,

God watches them play and forgets the priest.

Lotte Reiniger, the German film-maker who brought a European slant to the traditionally Asian art of silhouette puppetry, would have been 117 today.



Born in the Charlottenburg district of Berlin in 1899, Reiniger started experimenting with shadow puppet productions while still at school, making her silhouettes act out scenes from Shakespeare to entertain her schoolmates.

"In dealing with other people, we must not only be aware of what they are saying, but we must also be open to the whole tone of their being. A person’s actual words and smile represent only a small fraction of their communication. What is equally important is the quality of presence, the way he or she presents themselves to us. This communicates much more…

"The relationship between mother and child is the foremost analogy used in developing compassion. According to the medieval Indian and Tibetan traditions, the traditional way of cultivating relative bodhicitta is to choose your mother as the first…

"I gave birth to one child, a son, but I have thousands of daughters.

You are Black and White, Jewish and Muslim, Asian, Spanish-speaking, Native American and Aleut.

You are fat and thin and

pretty and plain, gay and straight, educated and unlettered, and I

I live every moment in a lifestream of Pure Consciousness where there are no limitations & everything flows in Divine Order & Peace with my blessings. I am consciously connected with the universe of the Creator. I trust the…

Clowns are you saying? Want to fool me? No. Not even fools they are. Rather idiots who call themselves Politician, but really are crazy. Forked people living in at least two worlds. Schizophrenia are and thoroughly corrupt and dishonest actually, the one vis-a-vis the promises and the most money. Foolishly they call those who do not take money also. Or the exposed or criticized, they call a clown or a fool by themselves. Would even call them a madman or idiot…
