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...

cancer free!

the cancer is gone!!!

but we don't believe it!

it's already done for us!!!

and we  don't believe it

it's not true
we see only the past
we're still telling ourselves we're guilty
we're looking back on it

from the End
wholly forgiven
from Sanity
from Clarity

I still am
Sanity looks upon it and sees it is not so, not true....

we are acting and thinking like we are really separate from God
we lose the weight, but still think like we used to...
we learn a new skill, but still perceive ourselves the way we used to...

because of  an old image
old thought patterns
the mind keeps replaying
the mind hasn't changed...
even though it has been proved to the contrary!

unconciously 
something doesn't believe it
something desires to suffer

this something
needs educating!!!!

so we teach this self, it is not so,
and that self cannot help but come along
when it sees such joy!!!!

we connect the two parts
in experience

now 
we let new images
new experiences
new actions
new thoughts
BE

we cherish them
we give them our time
and attention

we LOVE ON THEM!!!!!!
 we sit  with them on the sofa
and open completely 
to this total bliss

we massage them....:-))))

we let peace and trust
and quiet 
and oneness
and enthusiasm

be one with us

where it already IS

our thinking is cancer free

Only Joy is our deepest Love

Only this is true




speed limit

writing helps to educate the mind

it gives it a new experience

it slows it down
so it can really look
at one thing

we love to open the window
on one thing--

 one thought at a time

without writing
thoughts shoot by
literally faster than bullets

they whiz
unseen
out of our awareness
and produce form and actions
that seem to have no connection to us

electrons are very hard to see

thoughts are even faster!!!

if you are really really really seeking an answer
try writing  down your question...

...i do not know what this pencil is really for....:-)))




still wagging

"we travel light and journey lightly" (p?)

we light upon thoughts, ideas

they sit quietly
and patiently
waiting
like a cat or dog
on the hearth
waiting for her owner
to come home

we open the door of our mind
and there they are
gladly welcoming us
wagging their tails
rubbing our leg
purring with deep contentment  

we see them
we touch them
embrace them
our heart warms and melts 
we relax
and appreciation happens
without effort on our part

we did not create these warm loving ideas
nor ourselves 

they simply are

love is

the Love we are just loves
we were born that way

and the Universe 
being the same as us
does the same

It rushes out to greet us!
"welcomes us,
sings our praises,
and rejoices
that we came" ...p?

there is no where we can go to escape 
our true nature

we've all tried a 1000 million different ways,
but it hasn't worked :-)))))))!

God's tail is still wagging.....in us :-)
He doesn't care what story you tell....

He loves You!!!!

and so do I!

"Open the Holy place that you closed off
by valuing "something else" 
and what was never lost
will quietly return. 
It has been saved for you." t441

free fall

"Father, I do not know the way to you,
but you do know the way to me...."(p?)

go ahead!!!!

JUMP!!!!

off the cliff!!!!!!

free fall!

with God

fullness

lightness

wholeness


free fall!
into the idea of Love :-)

let everything else go

hold onto no thing!

and complete trust is yours

only this will ever fully satisfy
only this will ever hold you up
only this will ever fully fill your heart to overflowing

here is the end of all doubt

no possibility of turning back

of leaning on some old illusion of security

free fall!
falling freely away from the old old old illusions of life

quickly
effortlessly

we don't do it!

we simply jump!

like a kid
into our Daddy's Arms!
strength
might
wisdom
protection
power
HOME!


beyond rich

no one who loves
can judge (t441)

i am so incredibly rich

everything is mine

i own it!!!!

everything is me

what a mind!
what a heart!

everything is for me
has a very very loving purpose

it would show me only love

this is the purpose of the world!!!


soup

it's all
 just a thought
 being 
acted out

everywhere we look
we see our very own heart

is this what we would be?

our desire held before us speaks

oh me!
what wonder is this
to meet myself
in this way

oh my
what abundance you are
how very many images can show me myself
can show me love and beauty 
or lack and scarcity

oh my my  my MY!
mountains and rivers
women and men
insects and sky
paychecks and blankets
and cans of soup!!!
all show me my heart!

thank you dear world

how intimate is this...
we sleep with cans of soup :-)

everything is our love
they do indeed show us 
the very deepest part of ourself

being nothing of themselves
they simply whisper
over and over and over to us
the innersmost stirrings of our heart

here is true intimacy

nothing between me 
and myself

radical enthusiasm

enthusiasm sparkles
 rejoices
 hops
skips
jumps
slaps the ground in playful joy

take that!
you beautiful thing upon which i walk! :-)))

take that, sky!
take that, tree!
take that, you man
 who cries out in his imagined pain!

oh you love,
that cannot be hidden!

we meet now
we join,
only this!

Ahhh!
amazing grace
amazing gratitude!

rapture

spunk

enthusiasm

radical enthusiasm!

enthusiasm is  completely without harm

it is %100 for everything

it is an unsoiled idea

love has grown murky in our mind
clouded by illusions and deception

enthusiasm is wholly without opposition in our mind
it needs no object

we feel it
we glow

it lights the enthusiasm in our brothers and grows in us 
just by its presence

there is nothing our enthusiasm cannot do
there is nothing else when enthusiasm is

enthusiasm : (en theos) God within

is the answer to everything

it is the power of God

doubt is impossible within enthusiasm

we dreamed we gave our enthusiasm to death, to murder, to pain,
and being %100,
 we enthusiastically gave our belief to it
we love it
we cherish it
and we deny it

get honest
enthusiastically!

if you want to kill someone
don't lie

irritation is a lie to keep your enthusiastic devotion to death hidden from you

so you can suffer
and keep the suffering going
you can delay in your denial
of your hatred

addiction is actually a shortcut
it shows us quickly where we are headed
and what could have taken  us a very long time to see
if we acted out our poison in small spread out doses
instead of overdosing all at once.

there is no small hate
no small projection

we love God %100:
enthusiasm

or we love death %100:
enthusiasm

enthusiasm
is not wishy washy

enthusiasm is always %100 (duality does not exist in enthusiasm)

wishy washy
indecision
apathy
is denial of enthusiasm
our  devotion
to the death of God/Joy

go for it
%100 !!! 

 we already have
it is our nature...

we are powerful beyond our conception...

whatever it is you think/believe you want
you must go for it
until you 

see  the result
 and find out if it is the real thing you are looking for
or 
nothing


truth is restored to you through your desire to see the harmless

enthusiasm is completely without harm/opposition

it is always for everything

herein lies the peace of God


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.
