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...

thank you for your stillness

thank you for your stillness, brother
for your patience
for your steadfastness
while i straighten out my thinking

thank you for not ripping it ("me") to shreds
for surely i would have retreated
and fortified its threads
so justified and necessary
for this cold world

thank you for the shining light
that glows through the veil
through the fog
even on the wettest days

thank you for the humbleness
that holds not one claw ready
to prick my story

just the completely quiet
silence
the open space

the stillness of the night
the brilliance of the stars
shooting
falling
crumbling away over and over and over again
showers of light
all the while

the veil is slowly unsewn

joy of stars
never disrupted for a moment
in the dance
of creation
leaps
and bounds
and tiny increments

always
in humble recognition

wholly without opposition
rising
and falling
always resting
resting
resting

in perfect stillness,
defenselessness

the veil
falls

the stillness calls
everything
to silence

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.
