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...

the falcon

the falcon flies so freely
when not tethered
to the hunter's hand

she is free as any star
without that little band

but once she's caught
and claimed by man
to help him find his prey

there is no hope
to soar the sky
and freely break away

the tether must be cut
and dropped
before the Sky to her
is returned,
and wind and storm
and shine
are hers to be and burn

the end of yearning
for far away places,
the end of a string no more

her freedom
of Being
without this master
is everything
she ever yearned for

so see the master
whose chain you have taken
and buckled to your wrist

what walloping detail
and realtime stress
have you tangled in your hair?

what poison have your drunk,
what trinket are you hiding,
deep within your heart?

what fear is keeping you
from kissing
the cheek of your neighbor
or washing his feet
with your tears?

the falcon flies so freely
when not tethered
to the hunter's hand

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.
