Smitten

Posted on by

I awoke
smitten with the Love affair
that’s blossoming with my Self.

Enamored by the Love
that’s always present
ever flowing
never judging.

Infatuated with the Joy
that bubbles up from within
for no reason
other than I exist.

Enchanted by the Magic
that playfully
continues to awaken
new aspects of me.

Besotted with the flow
of everyday life
as I allow it
to have its way with me.

No longer caught up in the old adages
of a human style love affair
addled with requirements
and unrequited expectations.

Back in the arms of the Divine
sweet gentle embraced and content
crazy mad in Love with my Self
smitten in the knowing of Who I Am.

I AM the Chalice

Posted on by

I sat with Mother Mary
and Love flowed through my being
I sat with Yeshua
and forgiveness flooded my heart
I sat with Buddha
and peace was found in the stillness
I sat with Quan Yin
and compassion enveloped me
I sat with the Ancestors
and clarity ensued
I sat with Merlin
and magic sparkled within me
I sat with the Fae
and joy danced around me.

I AM
the Love of Mary
forgiveness of Yeshua
peace of Buddha
compassion of Quan Yin
clarity of my Ancestors
magic of Merlin
and the joy of the Fae.

There is no need
for me to seek for anything
outside of myself
when I remember
I AM the chalice of All-That-Is
and it is in the sharing of Who I AM
that I become a role model for others.

Sweet Gentle Cleansing

Posted on by

Sweet gentle cleansing
as the heart opens more fully
crystalline tear drops
flow down our faces
allowing us
to see Love
in all its forms
to hear Love
whisper in the breeze
to feel Love
in the depth of our being

Allow the tears
for they are
the sweet elixirs of Love.

I Am Love

Posted on by

Human love with all its limitations
requires an exchange of love
I give you love
and consequently
I expect your love in return.

Whereas, 
Divine Love is an energy
radiating from within my heart
ever present, ever expanding
without any need for
measurement, exchange, nor possession.

I AM Divine Love
therefore. . .
I have no need to give love
I have no need to receive love
because
I AM already Love.

You are Divine Love
therefore. . .
there is no need to give love
there is no need to receive love
because
You are already Love.

When I know myself as Love
and
You know yourself as Love,
We are free to Love fully
as Sovereign Beings
in Love with All That Is.

Shadows in Search of Love

Posted on by

Our lurking shadows are our wounded parts
“acting out” in search of Love.

Those shadows are a sacred part of us
isn’t it time to invite them into our heart space
to be nurtured with love and compassion
just like an innocent wounded child.

When we do, they revel in our love
and blossom into full radiant color
rather than continuing to “act out”
as the shadows of black and white.

Diet of the Mind

Posted on by

The human mind is hungry for drama
for it makes it feel alive
thus it is constantly
stirring the embers of drama
to feel worthy of itself.

What if you introduce the mind
to a more enticing diet:
a diet of Love
without the need to protect
a diet of Peace
in sync with your Soul
a diet of Harmony
that spurs new creative flow
a diet of Joy
alive with laughter.

Then the mind would feel
tenderly nurtured
deliciously satiated
enthralled with the beauty of life
honored as royalty

And . . .
the incessant hunger for drama
would cease to exist.

Love your Humanness

Posted on by

I Love you, says Source . . .

I love your body
for it is the illustrious temple that houses me
I love your mind
for it is it allows you to grow in understanding
I love your spirit
for it is gives credence to your expanded consciousness.
I love your humanness
for it expresses All-That-Is in a myriad of ways.

Without you I would be no-thing.
Without your body, mind, spirit and humanness
you would be no-thing.

Love your body
Love your mind
Love your spirit
Love your humanness
Rejoice in the Being you have become
and the Being that continues to expand
because of your Love.

Footsteps of Unconditional Love

Posted on by

Unconditional Love
seems like a monumental feat
requiring the sacrifice of the ego
offering the totality of one’s self
at the foot of the altar.

No wonder the gates
to unconditional love
have not been flung wide open
by masses of humans
rushing to gain entrance
in hopes of attaining
this spiritual badge of the heart.

And yet. . .
’tis such an easy path
when taken one step at a time.

Simple acts of kindness
Listening with an open heart
Offering a hand where needed
Smiling without a reason to smile
Giving up the need to be right
Honoring each other’s path without judgment

These are all simple tasks
each of us can engage in
these are the footsteps
of Unconditional Love
that leave a trail behind us
amidst the bleakness
of a world that’s gone asunder.

This is Unconditional Love, pure and simple.

The Erupting Heart

Posted on by

Everything is erupting!
Words are flying
energies are exploding
our feelings
our personal lives
and the world stage.

And yet, everything that’s erupting
is all about Love.

At the core of it all
it is the Heart that’s erupting
no longer willing to be ignored
no longer willing to be walled in
no longer willing to be contained.

For some this feels like
long-awaited freedom
for others
it’s like pulling off the scab
of a festering wound.

Healing requires love and compassion

Can you be
the love and compassion
the world needs right now
as all that is not Love
is imploding upon itself

Can you be
the love and compassion
the world needs right now
until it results in free-flowing
unadulterated Love for all.

Be Here Now

Posted on by

Be here now
in the sweet blissings of Love
and watch as it softens your grip
of the rightness or wrongness
throughout all of your life.

Be here now
in the sweet blissings of Love
allowing it to effortlessly
expand your consciousness
importing a whole new view.

Be here now
in the sweet blissings of Love
where time itself stands still
taking you beyond the mind
where infinite potentials abide.
