Dear Q
I am sorry I turned my back on you.
Frustrated you beyond measure by not listening to your sage advice.
You shared the data needed to be my proxy.
You shared to keep me alive in the pandemic.
I forgive you for claiming that I do what I want and not what my family advises.
That I choose my agenda, in spite of you.
Instead you ask me to avoid acting impetuously.
Many friends have asked me
“not to be a steam-roller.”
“not to mow them down”.
Wish I could weed out this unruly character defect.
Yes, I promise to think before jumping.
To imagine you warning me.
To hesitate and consider the wiser side.
To embrace my sage daughter and my sage family
and BLEND.
Then we will both know complete forgiveness
Believe it is given
And act to its rhythm
in HARMONY!

Time is not my servant
Time is not my servant
but my camera.
It records my outfit of the day
my shoes and socks
my chosen menu
and nutritional delights.
my creative ideas
and works of art:
illustrations
books
poems
cartoons (framed and free)
(still and animated).
time is not a caricature
but a robot.
it marches
never morphs.
I flow
dance and whirl around through the minutes
flying static
on the face of time.
it is not my servant, but a camera
of my human path to divinity
every day
every minute, every nano second
prickles in the snow!
quicksilver

Caroline Myss
You talk to yourself more than anyone else. The words you use impact every part of yourself.
How you speak to yourself results in you creating, and recreating a reality.
Every word we use packs a creative punch.
I want to give you a word. We go from mental language – what I realized is that we need holy language.
Mental language doesn’t have any voltage.
Holy language is where we want to be. Holy language is the language of the soul. It has grace to it. It has potency.
It’s UNreasonable.
It carries light.
It carries that quality of potency.
That moves within us in a life giving way.
It’s the language of inner transformation. So, I’m going to give you a word today that is pure grace.

blowin’ in the wind
I Heard You Solemn-Sweet Pipes of the Organ
by Walt Whitman
I heard you solemn-sweet pipes of the organ as last Sunday
morn I pass’d the church,
Winds of autumn, as I walk’d the woods at dusk I heard your
long-stretch’d sighs up above so mournful,
I heard the perfect Italian tenor singing at the opera, I heard
the soprano in the midst of the quartet singing;
Heart of my love! you too I heard murmuring low through
one of the wrists around my head,
Heard the pulse of you when all was still ringing little bells
last night under my ear.
“I Heard You Solemn-Sweet Pipes of the Organ” by Walt Whitman. Public domain.
