Revelations on the cycle of life & death, and spirit ~ Blaise Smith Band
I downloaded this song, Revelations, over a year ago. I can’t recall playing it since, though iTunes insists it’s been played 7 times before. Yesterday it came on while on my way to my chiropractor’s. Something about it haunted me. I wonder if I’d ever listened to the lyrics before. Really listened to them. Revelations,…

The divine, beautiful grace
There’s a beauty that never fades, endures all time There’s a divinity that pervades all beings, all things There’s a grace that characterises all movement, all art That divine, beautiful grace . . . . . . is Love.

Amazing Grace comes in small packages ~ Rhema Marvanne
‘Grace’ is among my favourite words. There is divinity in it, and poise, as there is in this little girl’s voice, and in her being. Rhema Marvanne is, apparently, all of 7 years old. An age of innocence, so there should be no surprise there’s not a hint of wretchedness in the performance. But whence…

We are not sinful, shameful human creatures who have to somehow earn Spirituality. We are Spiritual Beings having a human experience. ~ Robert Burney

RE: Delusions. . .
Staci… Why have you never brought up Helprin before? The passage you quote in Delusions. . . is scrumptious. Should I begin with Winter’s Tale ? Or Soldier? A couple things about categorisation… You’ve categorised that post in both Beauty and Perfection . I think as far as the sub-categories go, we should pick one.…

Note to Self
It’s not that I float. That indicates the possibility of falling, and there is none. It’s not that I have a position in space. There is no space. It’s not a dimension, or a plane of existence that I exist in. These are all concepts of a physical manifestation, and there is nothing physical about…

16 thoughts I felt compelled to write down one day in 2008.
5. Your body knows more about your spiritual well being than your mind does. Teach your mind to listen to it. ~ Some days, insight floods you. I didn’t sit down to write this collection of insights, it’s just what came out in response to a challenge: jot down 16 brief notes about yourself.
