Mindfulness
Paying attention, giving heed... Considering consequences... Putting your shirt on inside out... Not noticing you've put your shirt on inside out... Most of us operate on auto-pilot as much as we can, we are in such a rush! We are several steps ahead, but slack when it comes to considering Right Now. Have you ever been rear-ended by someone who didn't realize you stopped for a yellow light about to turn red? They were already through the intersection, when suddenly, you were there, snapping them... Sign in to see full entry.

The Gospel of Jesus' Wife
What an uproar over a dash of writing on a scrap of papyrus! To me, the curious thing is not what is written there, nor what it says or implies. What interests me is the emotional reaction to what may well be another piece of the puzzle of earliest Christianities. There were so many little congregations and interpretations of what we call Gospel, in those first centuries, but we, two millenia later, have come to believe that there was ever only one that was correct. That is, of course, an... Sign in to see full entry.

Light and Shadow: thoughts on the passing of Fred Phelps.
Everything is energy. The very high vibration we call God matches a vibration that on other levels we call Love. God is the highest vibration of Love. When we experience love, when we feel it and give it, that is God in us, whatever kind of love it is. It's all different octaves of the same note. Some who claim a close association with God, and probably even believe it, have little of love in them: their entire message is based in hatred and, ultimately, fear. These are people of the shadows,... Sign in to see full entry.

People Are Planets...
...that do sometimes collide... We explore those planets when we go inside another person's thought and feeling, discover what the silver atmosphere's concealing; Different laws of nature may apply to different creatures under different sky. A world may be hostile to our hearts, our breath... May lead us far astray into confusion, into troubles, even into death... Yet, some planets do attract us by the soul and so connect us: Thus between us we are whole-- sashaying through the cosmos twirling... Sign in to see full entry.

The darkest days are past
Winter Solstice marks the end of the declining days of the year, even though for many of us it is only the start of winter. Cold it may be, and grey and bleak across the landscape, but the days are growing longer, and nights, shorter once again, changing just as fast as autumn days brought us to the longest night. Everything the world presents us is or can be a metaphor, reminding us of something true on higher levels: the particular revealing the unversal. It's one of the ways the Universe (or...

Happiness runs...
... in a circular motion, life is just a little boat upon the sea. Everybody is a part of everything anyway! You can be happy if you let yourself be! That was a little round that we used to sing. CCT said something about there being no road-map to happiness, and it got me thinking about how we think about happiness. Here are some of the thoughts... puzzle-pieces of the puzzle of happiness. A couple of months ago, someone gave me a desk, and I found in the drawer a little card that says in bold... Sign in to see full entry.
