without the thought
the world owes me something...
the world turns belly up,
exposes it's tenderest gifts
defenseless,
transparent,
holds not one thing back
there's not one flower on this earth
that is not a gift to you
a trillion fresh blossoms...
just for a start
and THAT
is not enough, you say?
you need what?
a man?!
oh for heaven's sake!
you are asking for a human being?!
to have a human being...
isn't that quite against your ethics?
would you
be given to another
as a requirement of life?
what an extraordinary request!
that someone owes you their life,
THEIR time,
THEIR attention,
anything!
no, sweetheart,
the world owes me no thing
and
it continually showers and showers and showers
me
with love,
wisdom,
and endless in-spire-ation
belly up
i feel the slightest whisper of the wind
and a roar of gratitude rushes in
the world owes me nothing
and the birds!
the birds
the birds
oh look! how the birds fly!

About Me
- Joy Schultz
- 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.
