CLOSING CYCLES: 2022

One always has to know when a stage comes to an end. If we insist on staying longer than the necessary time, we lose the happiness and the meaning of the other stages we have to go through.

Closing cycles, shutting doors, ending chapters…

"I love science.

I also love the concept of magic.

I don't find that these ideas conflict.

Fact and magic go together like sound and song,

like ink and poetry,

like truth and metaphor.

A good metaphor does not destroy the truth.

It brings it home to a human context.

For me, magic is about…

Love and Emotion

Love is more profound than emotion. The fundamental difference between the two is that love never causes pain, whereas emotion creates all the problems in the world. Emotion is the mind’s concept of love, which is conditioned by the feelings generated by the self-interest…

Let there be PEACE on EARTH

And Let it Begin with ME.

“The basis for peace is respecting all creatures.”

~ César Chávez

“If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.”

~ Francis of…

Chanukah 1932:

"It was on a Friday afternoon right before Shabbat that this photo was taken. My grandmother realized that this was a historic photo, and she wrote on the back of the photo that ‘their flag wishes to see the death of Judah, but Judah will always survive, and our light will outlast their flag.’

“He drew a circle that shut me out. Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout. But love and I had the wit to win: We drew a circle and took him in!” From the poem “Outwitted” by Edwin Markham.

Every family has its stories. My family’s stories contain a fairy tale. There are no magic beans,…

The level of culture

On the spiritual and cultural level, traditional matriarchal societies do not have religions based on a God who is invisible, untouchable, and incomprehensible -- but omnipotent -- and in contrast to whom the world is devalued as “dead matter”. In matriarchy, divinity is immanent, for the whole world is…

"Thoughts and ideas are as natural to the human mind as the clouds come and go in the sky. Our mind will grows thoughts as a field grows the seed which fall on it. Our mind creates seed conditions which then unfold and grow into the creation we desire. Our emotions water and nourish the thought causing us to act to manifest them in the world. We each need to learn to garden our minds much the way a gardener weeds and tends to their garden." 

- Kenneth Ferlic…

Solitude is a condition of peace that stands in direct opposition to loneliness. Loneliness is like sitting in an empty room and being aware of the space around you. It is a condition of seperateness. Solitude is becoming one with the space around you. It is a condition of union. Lonliness is small, solitude is large. Lonliness closes in around you; solitude expands toward the infinite. Lonliness has its roots in words, in an internal conversation that nodbody answers; solitude has it's…

Look how happy they are!'

Hui replied: 'Not being a fish yourself, how do you know the fishes are…

SHE GATHERED

She gathered beautiful things along the way to pass on, but not clothes or jewels.

She gathered starlight when she couldn’t sleep… and sprinkled it on her stories so that the children of her children would listen in wonder and remember with delight.

She gathered lessons, learned at rock…

Men don’t age better than women,

men age without fear,

without worry,

without judgement.

Men age secure in the knowledge that it’s as it should be,

and the fight is not theirs to take on.

Men age without prying eyes looking for lines,

looking for grey hairs or spare fat.

Men just age.…

Desejo-te a paz do ar que passa suave

Das ondas que mansas quebram na praia

Da terra quieta que pisas com teus pés

Desejo-te toda a beleza das flores

Pois com seu perfume e ternura

São mensageiras de amor e paz

Desejo-te a luz do sol

O brilho das estrelas

O amanhecer

Os…

A espera, que minha alma espera!

Clicia Pavan

Um estranho encanto envolve minha alma

Como um silencioso canto, suave, profundo

Como uma flor que renasce na primavera

Minha alma renasce da força vital, a energia pura, Deus!

Como águia, meus pensamentos voam

Voam ávidos a procura da essência perdida

Olho os…
