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...

Happy Easter

i have trained myself
to believe the impossible

that i am
what i am not,
limited
finite
imprisoned
a slave of thoughts,
the follower, not the leader
tired
hurt
broken
fearful
blind
needy
separate from all i see

if i taught myself this
i am capable of anything,
capable of undoing it,
of letting it go,
of seeing the truth

i fell
for it
and have been scraping my knee
ever since,
abrading my body
against the imagined
friction
of the Universal Open Skies

days gone sour--
is it possible
even to have a "day"?
what is this?
surely it is imagination
of other than what is
(in this moment)

what do you really know
about yourself in this moment,
without any past
or future?
in just this
nanosecond?

is there even time to think about it?
is there anything to know?

is there any time
to make you separate
from all that is?

without a label on "you",
any label at all,
without any label on anything,
what are you?

do you exist
without any word of any kind
to reference you?

just like prior to  language...

every word/concept
crucifies "you"
to make you just that
limit
and causes "you"
to be separate from the rest,
(not that)

i would get off the cross today
and let the world resurrect as the whole it is,
by not chopping it up into little pieces
with labels
that make you
separate from me
and separate hearts that are just dying
to be one

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.
