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...

Formlessness

it is not form we seek
it is formlessness


we would transcend form
there is nothing form holds

we thirst for what is behind it 
underneath it
what does it mean?
what purpose does it serve?


why in the hell are we here and what are we doing?

it can not be simply to build up and tear down matter
there is no meaning in this

abstraction goes beyond form
feelings are abstract
feelings are eternal
feelings are infinite
feelings bounce  and shout and shine and transcend every cell and centimeter 


there is no distance that is too great for love to encompass

and what is love?

we have no words even 
to start
because it is something so big
so powerful
so beyond our fragmented perception


it must be Wholeness
so beyond
so beyond 
so way far beyond
any form we can imagine



we would 
go there


we would leave
the idea of this world/form
in our mind

and go instead
to a place of abstraction--
limitless
undefined
totally open 
to richness 
and depth
and vibrancy

something so 
different
so unworldly

that form never 
enters our mind

and in this formlessness
there are no boundaries

only
something
so gracious



the light has come







it is never form we seek

only formlessness can offer 
something totally different.


to exchange one form for another is no change at all....

happiness has no relationship to any form

we step back from form
 we let our grasp on it go
and open up to All that Is


I thank Formlessness Himself for this release

love,
Joy

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.
