stillness
is not sterile
sterile is a concept,
a visitor,
that once in the door
and on your couch
will deliver
every proof
of sterility--
every expert testimony,
eons of repetition
of the ancient primer,
simply retold
stillness
is not boring,
"boredom" is not empty
or lacking--
a movie
that would convince the all powerful
that it is powerless
is full
of extraordinary seduction!
hardcore
techno saavy
my job is to watch,
to observe
this visitor,
to see
take her pulse,
her blood pressure,
note her symptoms
and when i look very closely
i see there is actually
nothing solid
there at all
the doctor
is NOT the patient
it's only confusion
to think i
become the one
who visits
isn't it mind boggling
that "i" could conceive
of any part of the universe
as sterile!
or boring!?
HA! that is really a wild idea!

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.
