The world seems to be crumbling
alliances disappearing
the few grabbing power
the many paying the price
with their sweat
and blood.
Mind yells, “Charge into the fray,
change it all,
protect freedom!”
Soul knows differently.
It sees the true dictator
within.
Stoking fear in one’s heart,
it generates hate, separation…
Desperation!
Only one solution:
Rather than run out,
I run in.
Take hold of the Beloved’s hand,
feel that love lighting every cell
atom and quark.
This bliss is my True Country,
my World,
my Universe.
Where freedom reigns.
It is calm, powerful, sweet,
a breeze soaked with cherry blossoms.
A finch flitting on invisible waves,
A dolphin arching into the air.
In any moment I choose, this liberation is mine.
I become the freedom fighter,
living every moment in this calm tranquility
casting its love waves into the ethers.
So it may touch all in its subtle way:
the cashier at the grocery store,
the squirrel I brake for on the road,
my cat,
my friend
and even the child in that war-torn country.
No time
or space—
all connected.
The love flows abundantly
when I hold tightly
to the One!
Perfection💜
Thank you, Rebecca!
yes. sooooo perfectly expressed precious one.
Thank you, Christine!
I so value that the Inner Beloved gives me the signs of what to do or say, the actions to take, often simplynplacing me where I can easily outflow. Like sending me, yesterday a different way than I usually take out of the Walmart parking lot, so I would see a former client struggling against the wind and be able to offer him a ride home.
Thank you for that inspiration, Niki. Those moments when we tune in and follow the call are truly the miracles in life.
A true celebration of words, Lesley! We must use our love to make things better. ❤️🙏🏼
Yes, Jan, I love that. “Use our love to make things better.” It truly is to strongest force. Thank you!
Beautifully expressed, Lesley! And I so appreciate your sharing it at this crazy time. I can see and hear Sri Gary pointing to the Planes Chart and as soul saying “I want out, I’ve had it!” Having watched some newscasts lately and feeling distressed, I hear that Inner Voice ask me, “Had enough yet?” Ha ha, yes indeed!
I have written out your wonderful poem The Ocean Life and keep it on my dining room table. “I am a sea creature swimming in the Beloved’s warm current….Here, in the blissful blue I float on wonder, breathing out bubbles of illusion. Breathing in the pure love that I am.”
Thank you for this too!
Thank you, Louise. Yes, the news is so distressing right now that I’m doing a news fast and losing lots of weight! I too have had enough. I’m so happy that ocean life poem spoke to you.
Thank You Lesley; Replacing fear with Love is and has been so very helpful in my Journey I’m so glad you put your words out for all to see. Remaining Positive.
Beautifully said, John. Replacing fear with love. Thank you!
