“I am Love” Though I fear her never coming to me, and though I fear her leaving me once she arrives, I am not that fear. Though I yearn to be by her side, and though I yearn to see Love for me dance in her eyes, I am not that desire. I am Love […]

“Identity” Who is she who has captured my Heart? So much further than a Friend does she walk in my dreams, so much more than a Mere muse does she summon from within. Like the sun, she is the star around which I spin, … the warmth that brings me solace. Like the moon, she […]

I hereby reaffirm my status as a holy pilgrim; a pilgrim just as Jesus of Nazareth was a pilgrim – a pilgrim of Love & Peace … We searched our minds for solace and searched the external world for harmony, and both searches have ended in vain … And yet now we search no longer for […]

WHAT IT IS TO BE HUMAN by Hal Boyle To be Human is to have an angel in your mouth, turning your prose to poetry. It is to have the gift of tongues, to know the language of all living things. Does a Human pause and turn an ear to a tree? It is because […]

I was drowning … You sent me Love. I refused to believe in You … You reached for me anyway. You touched my Heart … I took your hand, and you pulled me up … & I walked back into Life.

As Long As There Is Love Sandra Reum – 1997 (translated by Scott A. Hilbers) Love is a House, a House that is always open to You … a House that waits for You … No matter what happens, You are always Welcome there. A House, a House that hears your footsteps and recognizes You […]

My eyes already touch the sunny hill … going far ahead of the road I have begun. So we are grasped by what we cannot grasp; It has inner light, even from a distance- and changes us, even if we do not reach it, into something else, which, hardly sensing it, we already are; a […]
