I am a collector of words

Words feed me, free me, comfort, uplift and heal me. I've been saving my favorites in books, handwritten over the years and thought that perhaps in sharing them, not only am I preserving them for myself, but perhaps others may also find healing in them as I have.

This body is not me
I am not limited by this body.
I am life without boundaries
I have never been born,
And I have never died.



Look at the ocean and the sky filled with stars,
Manifestations from my wondrous mind.
Since before time, I have been free.



Birth and death are only doors through which we pass
Sacred thresholds on our journey
Birth and death are a game of hide and seek.



So laugh with me,
Hold my hand,
Let us say goodbye
Say goodbye to meet again soon.
We meet today
We will meet again tomorrow
We meet at the source every moment.
We meet each other in all forms of life.

I am Not My Body

This body is not me.
I am not limited by this body.
I am life without boundaries.
I have never been born,
and I have never died.
Look at the ocean and the sky filled with stars, manifestations from my wondrous true mind.
Since before time, I have been free.
Birth and death are only doors through which we pass, sacred thresholds on our journey.
Birth and death are a game of hide- and seek.
So laugh with me,
hold my hand,
let us say good-bye,
say good-bye, to meet again soon.
We meet today.
We will meet again tomorrow.
We will meet at the source every moment.
We meet each other in all forms of life.

Risk

they can go." (T.S. Elliot)

Ecstatic Living

"I want it all.   I want the small daily joys.   I want to celebrate the birthdays, the graduations, and the days lived well, AND I want to experience the ecstasy, the vision of wholeness that dissolves my boundaries and lets me taste the God that lives within and around me.  I am a blessed woman, for I have lived both.   And I have learned that the ecstasy of mango juice on my tongue and union with Spirit are not as different as I once thought."  Oriah

Relationship

"Powerful relationships arise when two centered individuals commit themselves to unconditionally love one another and to support each others growth toward their full potential.   Both give freely without selfish motives or the desire to lock the relationship into any particular form.  There are no boundaries when we fully embrace each other."   Thomas Crum
