it's an attitude
space
open
not closed
past
done
defined
conceptualized....
mind is a holder
a boxer
it can't conceive of now
never before (zero past--to hold)
What is so much bigger than it
what is continually increasing in scope
what is un done
Spirit,
so much bigger than the mind--
here to do little tasks,
not run the show
not the Inspiration
not the LifeForcePowerWaveUnstoppableUnstartable
Magnitude inous
Is-ing
servant of It,
but NOT the whole Banana
earwax is part of the whole, too,
but i don't worship it
it's the baby,
not the Father
attitude of baby
without all the encyclopedic
molds
formulas
lens/distorter
prior
to acquiring
beliefs
prior to
applying
beliefs...pasting them on, dividing up what cannot be divided
i am not separate from my Father,
nor my brother,
nor the earth that breathes and waters green juicy soft squishy harmonicas (just try to find that one in the dictionary!)
What is not in the dictionary is there!
the unseen, Love,
Yes!
fed
from the inside out
word
spoken
attitude of baby
still crawling
be in no hurry to leave the support of the floor!
all things
fall
to the earth
money
diamonds
rain
volcanoes
branches
leaves
all things
come to you
on the floor
no need to strain,
to pluck a star
from the sky...
stars fall too!
seeds fall
and sprout
water runs down the hill
to you
effortlessly
lay lowest, brother baby
let all things
roll to you
perhaps it was confusion
that told us to reach up,
climb the mountain,
arrive,
at a place we were not
laying right
here
in the puddle
in the soft dimple,
the cupped hand,
our natural resting place
of the mind--
only ever
this position
is true:
Ask.
You do not know.

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...

All the time in the world!
I have all the time in the world!!!!
this moment,
that's it
always
i have all the time in the world
so rich!
restored
no need to be stingy with it
i slow down
relax
breathe
no need to fix
no concern
every cell in "my body" is here for me, for this,
loving to dance with the joy of knowing i have all the time in the world whirling
stimulated
carrying out Its Purpose
unblocked
totally unopposed to anything
we watch
there is no changing it
only experience Appreciation
or notice....
"the fall"
I have all the time in the world!
it's definitely not too late
for love
life
maximal joy
laughter
openness
expansiveness
"forever gaining scope"
beyond the current frontier
falling forward
falling up
when you finally
let go
of "your security blanket/belief"
up up up you rise
zero effort
like dropping a weight
the most natural thing in the world,
you can skip now
touching lightly
no more grasping,
carrying
straining
efforting
owning
holding on
controlling
Majesty!
majestic pieces
glide
into place
where the space
is open
they have been waiting
just waiting
silently
patiently
for this
opening
set down your "safety"
and see what a tiny little
impossibility
it ever was
the long and winding road
is now curled up into a ball
on your lap
just for a blink...
and then
like the dream you can't remember
there is no more need
to rewalk
the miles and miles and miles of steps
to no where
having gone no where
expansion continues
beyond the words
beyond the stars
just the Attitude
of no labels,
don't know,
Appreciation...
I have all the time
in the world
ever gone,
ever new
only Appreciation
without Appreciation...
ouch!
just the loving signal
to re open...

are you sure?
the edge of the universe....
are you sure
it stops there?
your land
your house
your money
are you sure
you own that grass?
it dies,
where does it go?
no more "yours"
prior to birth--
is it really born into slavery, master?
are they really
your thoughts?
coming from what ingredients?
you don't even know...
how can you claim it yours?
passing by the window
you call that body yours!
hah! just watch it die now
if its really yours
how come you can't keep it?
how come it can go--
disappear--
right now?!
how come it doesn't do what you tell it to?
how come its not under your control?
how come...
how did it come
to be?
no idea
at all
i just know it's mine now
ha ha ha ha ha
what else do you "know"
are you sure
that's the edge
of the Universe...
what if "you" don't exist
at all?
and the land is the land is the land is the ....
without the name "you" gave it....
...

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......................

and
every thing....

sublime
sublime
breathless
leaves shimmer
flutter
glowing
ripples of light
shattering
scattering
across the nameless
miraculous
transparency by day
opaque by night
iluminata
sonata
of peaks and lapses
it seems
but that would mean
i left...
and entered
a manu factory
where plastic trees
are worshipped
as the real thing
and eating plastic bananas
day after day after day
leaves one very very hungry
swing low brother me
jump off the words,
set down that "thought"
for just an instant
and see what you aren't
and never were
as isn't
without the car
the motor is still running
and the car never did
run on gasoline

too big for your eyes to see...
nothing you see with your eyes
makes a bit
of difference
(and the crowd wants to slay me...perhaps :-)--for I can find in it also, the priceless mirror...
yet...remember but this...
You
are the looker
Look not to the gas pump
inserted into your car
Look only to the Gas Pump
that is the Source of What You Are
the underground Source,
the River
of Fire
rest in the
Giant...the Mountain...
rest
in What is Too Big for your eyes to see
and so far prior to your "birthday"
rest in the Heavens
watching the little blue ball rolling rolling rolling...
and reMain the Hugeness You Are
forget not,
You are the Looker
at the tiny dot,
not the period
itself
herein is All Freedom,
all inclusivity
all hairs on seven billion heads,
mine
and the dearest appreciation,
without labeling a one,
never seen yet,
for there is no moment repeated
and this one,
i don't know a thing
limitless
awareness
makes a bit
of difference
(and the crowd wants to slay me...perhaps :-)--for I can find in it also, the priceless mirror...
yet...remember but this...

without guilt
Without the weight
of guilt,
gravity,
pressure
there's nothing
to hold the "body" together,
to "earth" it
like in the vacuum of space,
endless
lack of resistance
void
don't know
void of "knowing"
and prior
to this...
?
beyond mind,
thought
of time and space
prior to the breakup of the family
prior to the build up of the family
what goes up
must come down
a picture paints 1000 words
and they too
are but to witness
"i" exist
what never existed
cannot leave
the war is over
beCause
there has never been
an enemy

you and horsefly :-)
looking through the tulips
You
shine back at you
You,
everywhere you look
You,
just waiting for you
You, sweetheart--
that "tree bark"
You, sweetheart,
the murmur you hear
in the distance
when you are very quiet
You, sweetheart,
that bold, blazing red
Corvette
You, sweetheart,
the con-crete detail,
the fly,
the wasp,
the ant,
the grasshopper perched
under the ledge on the brick wall
in 90 degrees,
flavorful mint leaves freshly picked
inward,
my soul,
yes, inward
this space
ever new
nameless
unnameable
All things are given you.
no effort on "your" part
in creation
no "you" in the Creator
watch all lines,
all borders,
all delineations
fade
simply can't be found
to fear,
brazen horsefly and i
are one :-)
and so it is
You

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.
