Let me sing

                                                                                          the song of existence

                                                                                                 The song of Being

                                                                                                     Sharing,

                                                                                                 outward,

                                                                                          inward,

                                                                                   Every cell singing the joy of life

    

                                                     The Earth truly is a garden we live in, 

                                                                   so be careful what you plant.

 

                                                                                        Perspective

                                                               I think the mechanic sort of led me astray. 

            He thinks he is making up for this by diagnosing the problem at no charge for searching down the problem. 

                    This was something we were both looking at, mentally, each according to his own standards. 

Here’s where different standards conflict. Both are not totally acceptable to the other. Here is the delicate balance of 

one of us realizing this and letting universal standards exist. 

                                                          The universal standard is weighing what is right

                                                                  and winning some and losing some.

 

"The Voice Within" - Nataani Guthrie      The original meaning of the word “vocation” means “the voice within.” Many cultures have ceremonies and rituals as to how to get in touch with this voice.      While this voice tends to emerge during our adolescence, it can speak to us at any stage of our life. The Huichol Indians tell us that there are two kinds of human beings. Those who listen to their inner-voice and those who ignore it.      The ones who listen to their inner-voice move in harmony with the flow of life, which is represented by a magical deer, “hicuri.” They also drink from the magical waters of “teacata”, the place of wisdom. This is the invisible river from which the Monarch butterflies drink in order to find their way in their migration from Canada to Mexico. This is also the water that the Salmon drinks in order to find his way from rivers to the sea and back to their birthplace. To know without being taught.      The Huichol Indians tell us that when we ignore our inner-voice we become ghosts of ourselves. Our mind is in one place, but our heart is some where else. Then, since we have lost our integrity, we become “beings of duality”, and we enter the world of restlessness and perpetual want.     But no matter what we do, and how much we may ignore our inner-voice, our heart never gives up on us. The Mayas tell us that within it lives a Quetzal, the bird of life, and the Quetzal goes on talking to us. The voice becomes more clear during the night, as we sleep and dream. It becomes clear also when we take time to be in silence, when we fast, or when we spend time in solitude. At times it may even assault us when we deal with pain or suffer a breakdown.      Our sickness may be an attempt of our heart to straighten our life.      When we are rooted in our hearts, our faces bear no duality, no concealment. Mexicans call a face with a heart “rostro” because the face is rooted in nature and in truth.      However, when the face is not connected to the heart, it cannot be a “rostro”, and it is called “cara”. In English we only have one word for both of them, “Face”, although, there is a world of difference between them. If you happen to have a rostro, keep shining brightly in this world. And if you happen to have a cara, your heart is out there calling for you. They say that when you find your voice the whole Universe sings. Make the Universe sing! - Nataani Guthrie

                                                                             Spirit existed and 

                                                                       Began it’s voyage through

                                                                              Time and Space

                  

What is about to take place on Mother Earth cannot be solved by choosing alternatives tried in past endeavors but rather, it will come by planting a seed in the present so the future can continue to be regenerating. Man’s mind must realize within his ‘psychic’ that the future is not automatically some place we are going but rather the future is a place that we are in the act of creating… creating… creating....

Centered activity aimed at Harmonic convergence with ‘our’ environment leads  to a ‘good mind’ and an appreciation of the Gift of Life in each of us.

             

             

                                                                 In the morning,

                                                it is good to open yourself up to creation 

                                         and everything you can see, when your first get up,            

                                                          to things you don’t know. 

                                                           Your mind is like a rose 

                                                             as it begins to open.
