The more I am remembered in LOVE,
The more what I once believed I was
Dissipates into the truth of what I am

I am not flower, nor am I even sky,
I am beyond the beyond and nearer the near
I am that place that is no place
I am LOVE in LOVE, matter-less, without fear

In LOVE all is and are perfection
Waiting to be remembered…

Just LOVE…

The ship was built; the ship sank

The deck chairs were rearranged; the ship sank

Again the deck chairs were rearranged and again; the ship sank

Again and again and again the deck chairs were rearranged and again and again; the ship sank

Finally the ship builders after eons awoke; untold resources had they squandered and billions of lives had they wasted; it was not the placement of deck chairs that was flawed, but the philosophy behind the design of the ship itself

How many times must the deck chairs be rearranged and the ship named Fear sink, before a new ship is designed, crafted and built of LOVE; that shall forever in peace and freedom sail to eternities distant shores… once more 

That will be named ship named The Awakening!

Just LOVE…

We are all fools or geniuses. The true genius listens to his instincts, follows LOVE. While the fool listens to only other fools and follows fear. It is our choice which one we are. 

You have no idea what you know, until you allow yourself to remember what you innately, instinctually know.

We are all Einstein’s in LOVE…

Just LOVE…

“Love has its own instinct, finding the way to the heart, as the feeblest insect finds the way to its flower, with a will which nothing can dismay nor turn aside.” ~ Honore de Balzac

My choices in life have covered my soul with scars and not one do I regret, for my scars mirror yours. And in that mirroring of scars, that shared experience of wounds and losses is my blessing of truest understanding, my gift of purest empathy with all. I love my scars and not one would I remove, because each is a reminder of the vulnerability that we must all have to experience the LOVE we share. LOVE may heal all wounds, but the healing leaves scars and the scars are beautiful; I cherish my scars, one and all, as they allow me to LOVE you better.

Just LOVE…

Arrogance nurtures madness
Control manifests collapse
Greed yields thievery 
Expectation spreads despair
Fear breeds failure

Humility teaches wisdom
Cooperation fosters evolution
Generosity reveals abundance
Experience ignites joy
LOVE Fathers life…

Just LOVE…

“If you would listen, sir, in the sense of being aware of your conflicts and contradictions without forcing them into any particular pattern of thought, perhaps they might altogether cease.” ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti

As great a joy as feeling LOVE in the embrace of those we call family, friends, lovers; a greater joy still is feeling that same LOVE in the embrace of one once called foe. From this moment on I vow to selfishly embrace and LOVE all I have or would have once called enemy for I am an addict strung out on feeling the high, the joy it brings.

You can tell a LOVE junkie from the track marks on his heart.

Just LOVE…

“Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.” ~ C. S. Lewis

I asked God what am I and she gently sweetly replied, “My child there is in truth no you, there is in truth no anything, there is only me infinitely dreaming, you and all are my loving dream”

The more deeply I fall into LOVE, the more fully I melt into the one…

Just LOVE…

“Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.” ~ Erwin Schrodinger

Science and spirituality come to the same conclusion; one by instinctual knowing and the other by process to gain remembering.

To attempt to deceive LOVE is to steal mothers milk from the mouths of babes.

To be a thief of innocence takes not great wit or skill, but a self loathing that desires its own soul to kill.

To our own sins, our mortal shame we must not become blind; they are the dullest blades that leaves the scars that frame and remind of the pain of the absence of empathy, the forgetting of LOVE.

Just LOVE…

Where there is mortal desperation there is the body raging fearing thanklessly death. 

Where there is eternal patience there is the Soul silently cherishing gratefully in LOVE all that is LIFE…

Our freedom exists in which master we choose to bow before the irrational, erratic whims of the body or the omnipotent, intentional needs of the Soul.

One author pens a short story of survival, while the other scribes the never ending opus that is LIFE, that is LOVE…

Just LOVE…
