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...

marching...

in defenselessness
i watch the troops
the armies
row after row of soldiers
marching
armed
muscled
trained
to seek out
and kill
without asking any questions

just follow orders
or
you are courtmartialed
imprisoned yourself

i watch
the troops in my mind

instilling fear
by the image

armies of cancer cells
heavy boots
trampling innocent children

helpless against such
mindless
robots

whose very job description
is
murder

is it this image that brings fear
or
did fear
bring this image?

all happiness
all safety
the end of war
is in this answer

for fear surely
brought forth
this image
of brother
of self
as enemy

as capable of murder

whose job it is in this world
is but to kill
to destroy

in order to keep safe

insanity

this is the viewpoint
brought to us now
by
Love

in the very midst
of chaos

in the midst
of sickness

the Healer
remains
always

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.
