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...

holy space

open to the holy space
you closed off
by
treasuring the idea
of "something else"

what is looked away from
is now turned towards

attracts you
draws you

this is the match
for your heart

see yourself standing over your worst crime
but this time
you are incapable of the thought of guilt

i see my dead son laying on the bed

without guilt
only appreciation is possible

thank you for helping me question the body
to open my mind
to expand my small vision
constriction
rigid boundaries
of right and wrong and should and shouldn't
my totally inaccurate beliefs about "life"
about knowing
and reality

i see now
the body wasn't you

thank you for crossing paths with me
for this intersection
interaction
for all my reactions
brought to my attention

what an intense 17 years we packed in

you have brought me to my knees now

to where i can see
i know nothing at all

why are we here?
what is true?

everything i ever learned just
flew out the window

open hearth
now
to see
everything i ever laid on you
was but my own
blood

my own
wounds
unattended
since the beginning of time

your going leaves me
with the only truth there is

you are not the cause of my pain

i face the truth now

just sitting

for hours
days
months
and now
years

opening
opening
opening
to this freedom

this re sponse ability

abled/empowered
to re spond

to
look
again...

without
guilt


holy space

there is nothing
that holds "more"
than this

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.
