she sat by the gate,
tears streaming down her face,
"why, God, why
didn't you bring him home?"
and it got so quiet
and so large
all her edges expanded
and disappeared
she got so big,
so very big
she encompassed
the whole world
and the stars
and the moon
after moon
after moon
vaster and vaster
and there was no end
to the encompassing
there was no edge
to any of it
and she understood:
he was there too
there was no way
he could ever leave,
no way anyone
could ever leave
the Infinite
and her Heart flooded
and opened
to every ant,
every blade of grass,
every fallen leaf
for it was her very Self
and she sat by the gate
tears of joy
streaming down Her Face,
thank you,
thank you,
for bringing me Home
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...

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.
