Guest guest Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Inside this new love, die. Your way begins on the other side. Become the sky. Take an axe to the prison wall. Escape. Walk out like someone suddenly born into color. Do it now. You’re covered with thick cloud. Slide out the side. Die, and be quiet. Quietness is the surest sign that you’ve died. Your old life was a frantic running from silence. The speechless full moon comes out now. ~~~ Rumi (Jai Rumi!

Roberts and Amidon, Harper Collins Our true home is in the present moment. To live in the present moment is a miracle. The miracle is not to walk on water. The miracle is to walk on the green Earth in the present moment, to appreciate the peace and beauty that are available now. Peace is all around us--- in the world and in nature--- and within us--- in our bodies and our spirits. Once we learn to touch this peace, we will be healed and transformed. It is not a matter of faith; it is a matter of practice. ~~~ Thich Nhat Hanh Page 367 (Moments of Grace and Illumination) Life Prayers From Around the World, 365 Prayers, Blessings and Affirmations to Celebrate the Human Journey.
