Sacred Life Sunday ~ The Holy Well

"For we are the stars.  For we sing. For we sing with our light. For we are birds made of fire. For we spread our wings over the sky. Our light is a voice. We cut a road for the soul for its journey through death." ~Passamaquoddy Indian poem

It's been an interesting week to say the least.  A friend was fine on Tuesday and died suddenly on Friday.  I was verbally assaulted by a woman's voice who never showed me her face.  After honking in irritation at a driver who most assuredly cut dangerously in front of me, I was the recipient of his middle finger.  A gal at work directed her anger towards me and in turn, I allowed it to anger me.  I found the perfect space to create a movement studio and now I just need to find the money to afford it.  Sigh...

I am more than my thoughts.  I am more than my fears.  I am more than my ego.  I am more than my expectations, assumptions and interpretations.  I am more than the events which occur around me and the ones I think happen to me. 

I am a holy well.  A deep chasm of desire, spirit and love.  I am never-ending light in a body whose time is limited.   I am a being who knows what's real and what's not.  I am a glorious mystery unraveling.  I am an expression of all that is pure and sacred appearing currently in physical form. I am a reflection of God.

Beautiful, Lisa; and oh so true. Trust yourself and trust your words - spoken or written. It was the woman who wrote this post who inspired me as an adolescent to trust my own inner sense of truth.

When I read this post I thought of A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle which I am currently reading. Have you read it by chance? Also, I notice that Flow is on your book list. The author was a professor of mine at University of Chicago!

Wow. What a beautiful and poignant post. I haven't commented before, but this post really spoke to me. I needed to say thank you for it. For speaking so truthfully. For speaking to me heart. Thank you Lisa. With love, Tamara

Lisa,

Sorry you had some sucky run-ins, but glad to see you're keeping your perspective despite them. Great picture!
