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...

five minutes of reality...

it's so easy
simple
nothing to do

it can't be valuable
no big office
no sign
no publicity
no time clock
no paycheck
no one else involved to pat you on the back or criticize you and feed or fight your image
no cost
no preparation
no resume
no planning
no committees
no agendas
no robert's rules of order
no board of directors
no capital expenditures
no risk assessment
no research
no google
no internet
no email
no marketing

so simple
the ego says you need a big party
fiasco
drama
bruhaha
collective something
fine print
to clarify every possibility
micro management
accountability
something to do!!!

no need to sell,  convince, or get support
no need to figure out how or where
to get support
no need to lie, swindle,  doubt and project the future....charts....

just
 sit
silently

listen

receive

that's it

you don't do anything at all

just receive


love
truth


yes, breathe (it's quite different...)
what are you...
without effort?


do "you"
exist...
without effort?


or is your whole identity
based on "you"
do ing
proving
to you
and the world
what you think
is true?


what if
you resign
from running
"your" life,
"your" committees
for five minutes
of reality
today?


what if "you"
don't know
anything
until you are listening


and then
you just receive it,
 opening  completely to it?


no hesitation
no resistance
no "you"


and allow
it to come 
through,
not by,
"you"


do nothing,
the most radical thought...


ego says its worthless--
is that true?

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.
