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...

the blank white wall

looking at the bare white wall
it's all there

the ocean splashing rolling crashing

the bearded fellow
maiden woman form

a picture is worth 1000 words

to describe it is tedious
who can tell you about the ocean spray
and her hair
and all the action

in an instant

i see 
how it all happened at once

and it was nothing at all

i see the visions clear as day on the wall
and yet
the wall is blank

no more sophomoric arrogance

nothing and everything are one

a rainbow of coins buys nothing at all
and at the end of the rainbow 
nothing has changed

every thought is available in the mind
every story
comes through us
like a salt shaker

of course! we understand each other

salt is salt

pretending not to get it,
thinking my thoughts 
are mine alone
is like
claiming water
to be personal

the image on the wall in front of me
is your face 

and i did not create it

there is just one story book 
we're all being fed

the characters known
by every one of us

the Radiant Captain
is having a ball

feel the wind on your face!

this is all here
for your 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.
