If my plate were a mirror
as I sat down to "eat"
and I looked at that image
of "me"
in that moment,
What are you really hungry for?
I want me
to come clean
in this moment
to identify the crime,
the judgment,
the lie,
I am HOLDING
against myself,
other,
Universe
I want to see
the heavy bands
I have bound this bird with,
the tears in her eyes,
from holding her wings
so long against her body
I want to see closely
the dire straights
I have imagined,
and watch
and feel
as the hardness
softens,
the armor melts
and the heart
dawns
I want to see clearly
the innocence
of this little child
her dear sweet tenderness
to see
all she ever wanted was Love,
to feel,
to know,
the Love
she is
It is but Love,
clarity,
Reality
I am hungry for.
Would I feed me now,
or is it back to "cookies?'

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.
