Sparkler for the Day

There is the still and the calm. One may like to think that this is the real deal – the place of spiritual work. There is the chaotic, confused, and messy – and more. We live in a continuum from the still and calm to the chaotic. These are all occasions for practice. It is all spiritual work. For instance, fearlessness is not so much overcoming fear as it is understanding and coming to terms with its nature. We learn to accept all the aspects of ourselves, embrace all of it, on this human journey. We learn to build self- compassion and learn to forgive ourselves for being who we are, and then we can so generously extend these to others. For me, this learning and discovery is the essence of spiritual work, and it is such healing work.

I will run with the trees

silent beauties swaying

giving way to the winds

beings of transformation

great energy interchange-ways

I will stay with the trees

feel what it means to stand tall

yet bend and let

the rhythms of life mold me

I will breathe with the trees

We will breathe together

out in the wilds

where our voices reign

and rumble

dancing with utter abandon

as a chorus enjoining zephyrs

and all the other winds –

Come dance with us!

Be still, my love,

rest in the silence

knowing the winds of the breath

and your pulsing heart

enjoin you to life

and stretch a bridge

into your soul.

Listen in the stillness,

feel your waters flow

rushing to and fro,

ecstatic electric energetic,

leaving no cell behind –

this is who you are.

Be still, my love,

center into your core,

and you will hear your soul

beckoning to you.

Listen in the stillness,

hear the roar – your roar.

I choose to let my soul go wild,

trusting the heart’s wisdom

will guide me flawlessly.

No longer will I feel crimped and rigid

inside of convention –

“don’t make waves”

“keep your head down in silence”

“conform to the uniform”

“live the cookie-cutter way”-

it just isn’t for me,

no matter how hard

I try to fit in,

I must have room to breathe,

stretch and expand,

let my soul go

let its fire burn

hold that sweet blue flicker

and discover in every moment

what new frontier

lives inside just waiting

for expression.

I choose to let my soul go wild.

I finally learned

what I had to do

to keep my head above water

amidst the shouting and insisting

that I be a certain way —

even when I had tried

to twist, turn, and fold myself

into what I thought the world

wanted me to be,

still the voices wished another

different version of me.

What could I do?

Pleasing others,

trying to be

what they seemed to want from me,

was clearly not working.

I finally learned

to listen

as I gazed late one night

at the stars.

Their brilliance lit the way

as their light revealed

the voice of wisdom

was the one inside of me.

Once I could finally hear it

as my voice,

the one I had been

searching for all along,

I felt its soothing promise

holding me steady

and serene

in being

just exactly who I am.

Life at the Surface

Firefly sparks

Slipping between white waters cresting

Edges as momentary waves

Hum in the hummingbird

Flick of fire

Bleat meow bark to a howl

Silent owl running wings spread in the night

Sound edges all, and then

Between the pulse of crickets and peepers

Sliding over and under a mobius

The surface edges are everywhere

once we awaken

water striders know the space

just at the edge of water’s edge

they zip along in Thinland –

that space atop the surface,

only an atom’s width

we may not know it,

but we live here, too

at that space atop the surface,

only an atom’s width

where breath meets alveoli

great energy exchanger

transformer, generator –

We live right at the surface

Life floods in with the inhale

and exits on the exhale

Our life is decided here

right at the surface

and between one atom and another,

we find infinity –

the quantum realm.

Surely this reveals

that we ourselves

hold the Infinite deep within us

hidden quietly right at the surface.

Where does self-doubt live? For me it lives squarely in the middle of fear. Where does fear live? It lives anywhere but in the present. We fear the moment we are about to enter, the future, or even some moment farther into the future – so we are actually ‘living ’in the future when we project what we think, ‘fear’, might happen. We are not here, in the moment. Yet it is here, in the present moment where all the possibilities lay spread out before us. We may feel excitement about the moment we are in, and that exists as a raised energy state, but only our projections about what we believe might happen at a later time lead us into a state of fear. Give yourself a break from this habit of projection and find the sweet peace and flow that is found only in the now.

Do you think your wishes are just too big to be granted by the Universe? That whatever it is that you are looking for will just never appear, whether you ask for it or not? Of course, what we really want seems so far out of reach as to seem truly impossible to ever materialize. But here’s the thing: when we believe that what we want is impossible, we block ourselves off from it ever happening – ever. So we never dare to ask for it. Well, I am living proof that this is not the case. In fact, my existence here is the result of humbly asking the Universe for help. The answer I got back floored me – I was given more than a hundredfold that for which I asked. It’s okay to ask. But here’s the other thing – you must actually ask. Take the step. Dare to ask. Watch the impossible become the ’I’m possible’.

Prayer for Attuning to the Frequency of Abundance

, , , , , 0

Divine Spirit, God, Great Father, Creator of all that is, You are known to us by many names but You are One. We love You. We thank You for the many blessings You have showered down upon us, known and unknown, for ever-holding us in Your Light, and for showing us with Your unconditional and unending love and grace throughout our lives and all through our lineages.

For all the times of plenty, when resources were rich and our bellies were filled, replete and nourished, and when sweet peace and love flowed freely within us and between us, and we all felt it deeply – we are grateful and we thank You.

We ask for all of us and our ancestors, through all space, time, and all realms:

For all of the times we couldn’t find what we needed – food, water, tribal connections, homeland, space to raise our families, nourishing rains and sunlight for us and our crops, any resource, including love and awareness of our connection to You, Divine Spirit – please help us all to forgive one another and all forgive ourselves. Please and thank You.

For all of the times we felt out of balance with the flow of abundance through money, not having enough, wanting more than we needed, times that we stole, lied, or cheated, the times we turned others away who were in need yet we had enough to share, and for the times when others did this to us…please help us all forgive each other and help us all to forgive ourselves. Please and thank You.

For the times of famine, pestilence, flood, times of fire and drought, times we felt so desperate to fill our empty bellies that we ate what grass we could find, and then the soil itself – for the times of disease and troubles of any kind, times we felt let down by others, ourselves and even You, Divine Spirit, please help us open and release the burden of these hardships and forgive each other and ourselves. Please and thank You. Please help us to forgive You for any role we thought you played in any of this, and please forgive us and help us to forgive ourselves for any time we turned our backs on You, Divine Spirit. Please and thank You. Please and thank You.

For all of the times we felt that life was all and only about struggle, times we just never saw Your presence in our lives and how we felt alone and abandoned, having to make it all on our own, times we felt powerless in the face of the events we were living, for the times we closed ourselves off from receiving from others for fear that we couldn’t return in equal measure or at all, and for anytime we felt unworthy of receiving – please help us to forgive each other, anyone involved, no matter what; help us to forgive ourselves, and help us to forgive You for what we thought your role in all of this was. Please and thank You.

For all of the times any of us felt we had lost our connection to You, Divine Spirit, and for our deep yearning to be actualized as a part of Your presence in our lives, for our longing for love from You, from each other, and with ourselves, please help us to forgive You, others, and ourselves. Let us feel Your love flowing freely within us and between us – now and forever. Please and thank You. Please and thank You. Please and thank You.

Amen.
