love

To feel the love

of people whom we know

is a fire

that feeds our life.

But to feel the affection

that comes from those

we do not know

is

something still

greater and more beautiful

because it widens

the boundaries of our being

and unites all living things.

Pablo Neruda

The heart of You

The heart is such a delicate and beautiful place
Somewhere inside where

feelings emerge

a place where love grows

the red rose

a place where I Am

able to sense your heart within mine

trust the beating heart that gently

whispers

the secrets you can only hear

truth

of silent heavenly love


Quotes

Nature

Our Children

Family

Friends

People

these are your teachers too

but we can also learn from others

Our children can bring us a reminder of unconditional love, simplicity,

playfulness and acceptance of others.

Our family can bring us unity and strength.

Friends can give us a helping hand, a listening ear and laughter.

The people we meet each day, strangers can give us valuable lessons in life.

give you

a

chance

to

apply your values

your love

understanding

compassion

If one reads the greater tapestry of life this is what we are being for each other.

Friends left for new life!

I have fond memories of you
my friend you made me laugh
remember our walks of hope
taking an hour or two

you were like a breeze that entered the room
a room that was dull ~

suddenly, filled with life and light

stunningly beautiful

a spiritual rose unfolding under the sun

and then one day

a knock!

at the door of your soul
crucified by cancer
your body became frail and torn
as if you had been within a raging storm

you were strong you fought it all the way

alone

you cried

you knew you could not run or hide

I saw you a few days before
a tear in your eye
like a

pearl, we treasure in our minds and heart



"I came like water. and like the Wind I go." by omar khayyam


Thank you Jacquie for being my friend
I miss you.

Thoughts

There is a sacred place where one often goes
the air is hushed and silence flows

and out of the blue you fall within
as if you were a floating silver pin

it is here one connects with the Whole
a resting place for ones roaming soul

seek just a moment, away from your confusions
bring to a halt your thoughts that are intrusions

gently like the sun going down free your mind
focus on love and listen, be still and find

The Divine within you

"When your sense of self is no longer tied to thought, is no longer conceptual, there is a depth of feeling, of sensing, of compassion, of loving, that was not there when you were trapped in mental concepts. You are that depth."- Eckhart Tolle

"As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the 'atomic age' - as in being able to remake ourselves."- Gandhi

"If you could get rid of yourself just once, the secret of secrets would open to you. The face of the unknown, hidden beyond the universe would appear on the mirror of your perception."- Rumi

"When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others."- Peace Pilgrim

Acceptance of others, their looks, their behaviors, their beliefs, bring you an inner peace and tranquillity -- instead of anger and resentment."- Unknown
