The Healing Power of Writing

Hi! Welcome to the Joy of Miracles.

To write is to uncover, to unhide, to bring to light, and express what is within. To share is the end of all private thoughts, all shame, all guilt, all pain and separation. Here is all Joy found at last! Writing helps us to repeat, focus, choose, and remember ideas. The purpose of this writing is healing for all of us.

This blog is inspired by "A Course in Miracles"and The Work of Byron Katie. You are invited to share your comments by clicking on the word "comment" at the end of each post. If you scroll way down there's a little info about me and also an archive of past writing you can view by clicking on the title. Thanks so much for visiting...

tiger watching

"you attack (and defend) only false ideas(idols)..." (633)

the ego thought system attacks itself to maintain that it exists

(pain=reality)

attack is a trick 
we would not fall for

we would not feed this tiger!


keep your fingers outside the cage.....



instead we simply watch her
from a distance
her sleek body
so beautiful
is not enough
to seduce us
into coming any closer

we leave 
this tiger 
behind







if you are upset

it MUST be 

over nothing!:-)))))


do not feed the tiger!







UP  SET

means 
you have knocked something over


what you have knocked over

is your perception(nothing else!)


and it is trying to eat you alive!



 lying on the floor 

under the bookcase

is not a position of strength

and the view is terrible




we ask our new boyfriend, Total Safety,
to take our hand
and help us get back up



standing upright
we watch the tiger slink away
we leave idolescence
 and approach adulthood



from here
we can see everything is in perfect order
safe
and unbroken
as it has always been 
before and while
 we hid under the bookcase


today we pre-occupy our mind 
with Total Safety/Grace
and leave no room imaginary tiger tricks


and we thank the Ringmaster for this view,
J

About Me

My photo
I have been a student of A Course in Miracles since 1986. It has helped me tremendously to be a happier person by helping me change my perception of everything. I have found writing to be very helpful in the process of practicing, experiencing, and living the ideas in the Course. In 2006 I started sharing inspiration from the Course with a friend. Now it is a joy to share it with everyone. In 2009, The Work of Byron Katie found me at a woman's group. The Work is a way to identify and question your stressfuI beliefs. I dove right in and in April 2013 became a Certified Facilitator of The Work of Byron Katie. I work with people privately and offer online classes. Please visit www.joyofthework.com for more information. I also still occasionally lead the 11am Sunday Gathering at the Rocky Mountain Miracles Center in Denver.
