Today I received two books of poetry in the mail. The Rag and Bone Shop of the Heart and Good Poems. They are hefty and filled with the renderings of so many. I pressed them up against my heart. Poetry: it’s my solid place, my knowing place, my healing place, my calm place. It is [...]

Still Open
Posted in Poetry on April 29, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
There is a bit of the curmudgeonly in this poem. I like it just the same, as the saying goes. Stick with it till the end and see what you think. Those final two words — I’m going to emblazon them on my heart. Love, Bethie When the visitor comes, Prying, questioning you, Confess that [...]
Study Your Own Sacredness
Posted in Seth, Spirituality, The Science of Mind on April 29, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Seth: “…the joy and sacredness that you seek is yours and not outside of you; that there is no being more sacred than yourself; that there is no being closer to the heart of creativity than yourself, and no being that was born more faithfully out of the mind of any god than you were. [...]
One Source of Bad Information

There’s a boy in you about three Years old who hasn’t learned a thing for thirty Thousand years. Sometimes it’s a girl. This child has to make up its mind How to save you from death. He says things like: “Stay home. Avoid elevators. Eat only elk.” You live with this child but you don’t [...]

The task you face is to reconcile yourself with the future and craft yourself a destiny rather than take refuge in the drama of your past. ~Albert Villoldo
Survival

His eyes stare at you like the black bottom of Jersey’s shore stretched so wide you think you could swim in them until you hear this noise that starts somewhere from the back alley of his throat a high pitched whine undulates through the air like a wire stretched out beyond it’s recall — it [...]

Hope this got through your spam filters! :)) I want to talk about making it bigger. Who was talking about ‘talking up’ and ‘talking down’…??? I’m so damn good at talking something up like an old blob of fear thoughts or something not wanted, as if I want more of it. I’m so damn good [...]
Melt into Bed Tonight

I haven’t been on the Abe tapes for several months. When I was on the Abe cruise I thought, what the heck, and signed up again. I just got my first tape and I’m listening to it and some of it is going in one ear and out the other and some of it, I’m [...]
You Are Pure Spirit
Posted in Spirituality, The Science of Mind on April 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Look within your very centered space and see the part of you that is pure spirit. Pure light. Pure energy. Visualize all your limitations falling away one by one, until you are safe, healed and whole. Know that no matter what is going on in your life, no matter how difficult things may be, at [...]
In Honor of Earth Day: Listen to things
Posted in Music, Poetry, Spirituality on April 22, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Listen to things more often than beings. Hear the voice of the fire, hear the voice of the water, Listen in the wind to the sighing of the bush: This is the ancestors breathing. Those who are dead are never gone; The dead are not down in the earth: They are in the trembling of [...]
