A few months ago my life was helter skelter
Now, I rejoice, in the laughter at the shelter.
There is never a problem that one of us has not been through.
There is always joy and understanding even when skies are not blue.
We have our own experiences.
We have compassion in the pain.
But, now, I am at home in [...]

The fever distorts the little reality that I know.
I live in the moment “beyond the beyond”
I see beauty in its perfect array.
I cling to the moment
I live in the beauty of the sublime
I will be sad when the fever subsides
But for the moment [...]

When I come to the place of Silence
With a heart full of laughter and joy.
It is in that moment
That I am the Master’s toy.
When I allow Him to give me instructions
When I put His work at the ‘fore
When I dedicate all my energy and actions
When I [...]

I sit to contemplate.
The full moon shines
deep within my
“Beingness”.
I am renewed.
Comforted and healed.
In this moment I am loved.
In this moment
I am Love.
I await the dawn to Serve.

Nature remembered before the snow
Sonny Galea Wild Wilderness Photography Jasper National Park
The snow,
makes a marshmallow world,
covering all of nature.
The wind howls,
forcing people to bundle up
or bundle together.
Like penguins,
the cold will not assail us
when we provide one another warmth.
It encourages introspection and self-reflection.
In the middle of this blizzard, [...]
Finding your purpose on purpose

Until you find your mission
You will always be mesmerized by anything you see.
Fascinated and draw in by the enchanting rush of adventure.
Having you watch the belly dancer’s navel and not the spiritual expression of love.
Once you find your mission
You will dance with fire of Spirit and
march to your own drum once more.
It is a wonderful [...]
