The Invitation by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to knowwhat you ache forand if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a foolfor lovefor your dream for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...I want to knowif you have touched the centre of your own sorrow if you have been openedby life’s betrayals or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain.
I want to knowif you can sit with pain mine or your own without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.
I want to knowif you can be with joy mine or your own if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful to be realistic to remember the limitations of being human.
It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence.
I want to know if you can live with failure yours and mine and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon,“Yes.”
It doesn’t interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.
It doesn’t interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back.
It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.
I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

Snow on the mars - Jane

People say that when you die

Your life spins before your eyes

And you can think quite clearly and surmise

What you did wrong and how to make amends,

By then its too late and the story ends.

And any thoughts you might have shed

And all the things you might have said

Are washed away like teardrops in the rain.
My big idea is to make a moment,

When everyone who ever shares it

Will understand that nothing is solid as it seems,

That reality is just somewhere in between.

That machines and stones and bricks and bones

Have dreams beyond the stars,

That life is quick and young and gone,

Just like snow on Mars.

CHASING MY OWN TAIL

I was almost human but then something went wrong
I was a human being but then I became a victim
I almost became a human being but then I ran out of time
I was one of two human beings involved in a hideous crime
I was one of three human beings caught up in a mystery
I forgot what it was like to feel human a long time ago
I was set off as a human torch in the eyes of my fellow man
I was human but then it stopped paying of
fI was one of two human beings in love with a third
I felt godlike but it didn't last
I was human but it felt strange to me
It was fun being human for a while till the fun wore off
I was human but then I was in too much pain
I loved a human being once and can hardly believe it now
I saved a human being once but couldn't save myself
I pulled a human being out of the water oncebut it was already dead
I was a human being as long as it was in fashion
I was in the business of being human
I hunted down humans for a living
Act like a human being he cried and then fired the gun
I saw a human being once from a great distance
I wanted to get close to a human being once but I failed
A human being once wrote a beautiful letter to me but
I didn't have the courage to answer it
I watched a human being get away with murder
A human being was singing once and then it stopped
Human beings can be found everywhere yet
I have never really known one
Until you have lost a human being you loved
you can't really call yourself human
A great human being was said to have lived here
I looked in the mirror once and saw something that
looked like a viscous animal
So that's what they look like, I thought
It didn't look half human when they were finished with it
I wouldn't want to be a human being for all the money in the world
Now that 's a human being I thought and then it went for my throat
I saw the most gentle human being the other day
She didn't look at me!

Blessings

I wish you Love so deep and true that you know that you ARE Love.
I wish you joy that bubbles up from your toes and pours forth from your heart like a waterfall.
I wish you beauty that surpasses what the eyes can see or the mind can define.
I wish you peace that you feel in every cell of your being as an abiding awareness that All is well.
I wish you abundance in your Earthly life that you may be free to give the gifts of who you are.
I wish you experience of the Truth of Oneness that you may see the face of God in all beings and in every moment.
I wish for you what I wish for myself...that you remember who you are

Look after me!

Tie the strings to my life, My Lord

Then I'm ready to go!

Just look at the horses-Rapid!

That will do!


Put me in on the firmest side

So I shall never fall

For we must ride to the judgement

And it's partly down hill

But never I mind the bridges

And never I mind the sea

Held fast in everlasting race

By my own choise and thee


Good-bye to the life I used to live

And the world I used to know

And kiss and hills for me; just once

Now i'm ready to go!


Look after me,
Dear Lord
My boat is so small
And your ocean is so vast!

The thing that is every where is there inside you

You can stare forever at the diamond black sky,
You can think you know everything there is to know,
And then there is more,
The greatest universe to conquer,
Is not in the blue glowing heavens,
That spills over into golden lights,
That shine beyond time,
Then they drift farther away,
And the universe expands,
The greatest universe to conquer,
Is in our own minds,
Thought are tools that kill and heal,
If we reach deep within ourselves,
We will see that the meaning of life,
Is trying to find meaning in life,
Dreams are ships that take us where we need to go,
As they sail the waters of Our Inner Universe

I see the Four-fold Man,
The Humanity in deadly sleep
And its fallen Emanation,
the Spectre and its cruel Shadow.
I see the Past, Present and Future
existing all at onceBefore me.
O Divine Spirit,
sustain me on thy wings,
That I may awake Albion from
his long and cold repose;
In heavy wreaths folds over every nation:
cruel worksOf many Wheels I view,
wheel without wheel,
with cogs tyrannic
Moving by compulsion each other,
not as those in Eden, which,
Wheel within wheel,
in freedom revolve in harmony and peace

Think

Though I think not
To think about it,
I do think about it
And shed tears
Thinking about it

Inside me!

Inside me, there is a gentleman trying to be gentle on occasions, there is a reasonable man trying to reason, there is an energetic man trying to be active, there is a super man trying to do wonders, and there is a modest man trying to be modest on senseless accomplishments.

I usually shut that son of a bitch with couple of beers and a bucket of KFC chicken!

When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at will change

There are always flowers for those who want to see them

Promises to keep

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep

In pursuit of life

From the experience of your past, the circumstances of your present, and in light of the hopes and dreams you have for your future, what is the wise thing to do now?

Go home and sleep! Oh please don't forget to dream!

Notes to myself

Let’s cut a deal with ourselves, shall we?

1. We shall start the day early tomorrow and be happy with each other. Let us enjoy each other's company in this wonderful time & space reality

2. We shall stop feeling sorry for ourselves. It is not required. We are where we are supposed to be.

3. We shall stop worrying about things that have happened and we shall stop worrying about things that might happen. We know from our experiences that those things that we worry about never actually happen.

4. We shall start living in 'NOW' instead of floating back and forth

Are we agreeing to this?

Yes. We are.

Thinking

I think i spend more time in thinking rather than anything else. That does not exclude even sleeping. Most of the time, i tend to plan what to think and i end up debating what not to think. This leads to bits and pieces of thoughts running across my mind and at the end of it, i can't summarise what i've been thinking. See now, i started writing this with some thinking and now i don't know what is the central theme of it. So much of noice. i can't continue this. bye

London

It's snowy and sunny. Right now london is a piece of cake that i want to have and eat at the same time!

Ten Invitations - Rasha

1. I am invited to love myself, others and life without condition-trusting that, in an evolving Universe, everything is unfolding perfectly.
2. I am invited to do whatever makes my heart sing and my spirit dance. Only that.
3. I am invited to live fearlessly and passionately-to step into my divinity, while embracing my humanity.
4. I am invited to treat myself and others with extraordinary respect and kindness-reaching out with love towards all beings, and seeing the Light within everyone.
5. I am invited to honour everyone else's beliefs, feelings, values and choices-knowing these add to the variety of life, and that everyone's path or guidance is unique.
6. I am invited to honour the earth, my body and all creation as sacred and divine-and to celebrate life in all its richness.
7. I am invited to choose my own mission or purpose, expressing my creative gifts, talents and vision in whatever way feels most joyful.
8. I am invited to listen to the inner voice of Love, which always sets me free-knowing that my goodness and worthiness are never in question, and that i can do no wrong.
9. I am invited to trust in a loving and abundant Universe. Ask and it is given. Seek and ye shall find. Knock and the door shall be opened.
10. I am invited to follow my dreams and desires-trusting my feelings, and using my imagination, to create my own heaven on earth.

Organaised coincidences

I can't help but to wonder the immaculate perfection of the organaised coincidenses that happens in our life. And if we look into them deeply, they can be easily tracked back to the thought chain that was so strong. Is it that simple? Then why so much fuss?

Starter for Ten

I admit it. I’d made some mistakes. Okay, some big mistakes. Loads of them. But you can’t hide in your room forever feeling sorry for yourself. It’s not practical. At some point, you’ve got to get back out there, face up to things, and confront your demons.

Ever since I can remember, I’d wanted to be clever. Some people are born clever, same way some people are born beautiful. I’m not one of those people. I’m going to have to work at it, put in the effort, and if I mess it up, I’ll learn from it. Besides, sometimes it’s not about knowing the right answer. Sometimes it’s about asking the right questions

Reality- Where it starts and where it ends?

It took me long time to understand that reality is rarely black or white but different shades of grey. All answers don't have to be either yes or no. Nothing has to happen today. Nothing has to be understood today. We can act when we are ready. When we are ready, we will understand what is to be understood. There is no need to fast foward anything. Right now we are standing where we are supposed to stand.

It's within us: the answers we seek, the direction we want, and the power to be whoever we want to be. Our dreams are not ours by mere whim. They've been meticulously matched to the gifts we are now developing. Designed to lure us within, where our true power lies, and then out into the world, beyond imagined limitations and fears. We should trust ourself. Listen to our heart. Our choice of direction should be led by our feelings. We have the right stuff, we know what to do, and it can all be ours.

But problem happens when our feelings are manipulated. We don't know what is directed by our subconcious mind and what is directed by fight or flight animal instint.
