Thank you for the music

Worry, doubt, and fear are nasty things when they come seeping out. They ooze out from small crevices in my ego - lower self. Some say its the greatest sin, because it shows lack of faith.
Once it takes hold, they can suffocate me. Yet, one way I combat it is with listening to music.
Thank You Emery Carl for giving your gift of music.
"The Violet Flame" - - - reminds me of the beautiful consuming flame as a gift from Saint Germaine.
"Miracles" - - - reminds me to giggle and not to take things to seriously    .www.emerycarl.com

Faith

I was listening to the radio show speaking of faith. I do not remember who it was being interviewed. The statement was " In the muslim and jewish traditions there are requiered ativities, where as the christians just have faith to rely on."
As a Quaker child I was taught that my entire life was an expression of my religion. How I worked or played. How I rested, what I read. My daily activities proved to me and all around me the strenght of my christian ideals. Everyday is Sunday - deserving of praise.www.speakingoffaith.com

To my Phaedrus

When we were introduced 30 years ago, professors said you were complicated. You hid your secrets from the world. You were discussed, but they told me your true meaning was allusive.
I looked at the black board staring at your thoughts and you were astonishingly clear. I couldn't believe you were so blatantly obvious. Why didn't they see you?
I jumped up to tell all that would listen to your secrets. Half way thru my outburst of telling your secrets, I started worrying I was betraying you. I ran from the room. I read some where that mystical secrets needed to stay that way.
Can I tell them now? The world is awakening. Conscious creation is apart of the worlds discussion.
Now that 30 years have pased, is there more you want to tell me?

Compassion

Charter for compassion.org has started.
Thank you Karen Armstrong for bring this to us.
I teach my son to play nice with the other kids and to feel thier point of view.
We as adults don't do it enough ourselves. No matter what our belief system is we are still heading in the same direction. To a place of loving our nieghbor.
