Idle Choices Waiting

31 Sunday Jan 2016

Artwork, Photography, Poetry, Reflection, Writing

Idle Boats

Small dinghies
in the harbor
much like choices
wait to carry us
to new adventures

Each one a vehicle
to navigate our existence
here on Planet Earth

Without choices
we, like the dinghies
go nowhere
do nothing
waiting powerless

Let our heads assist
in the untethering
yet align our choices
with our Highest Self

Yes “WE”
are the power behind choices
that create all possibilities

Let “US” choose
from Our Hearts
for in that Choice
Harmony and Balance
is restored to All

Before Sunrise and Moonset

28 Thursday Jan 2016

2016_01_28_1006_crb

Long before I arose from my bed
there was only the Moon and the Stars
how sweet early morning can be

There with thoughts manifesting
busy yet without movement
at one with all of nature

Should I record this or just enjoy the conversation?

The discussion within begins to rise
the mind chatter seeks to disrupt
and this peaceful interlude ends

The sky begins to shift in color
the stark yet balanced darkness fades
the dancing celestial bodies dim

Out of bed I arise to seek a cup of coffee.

Greeting me with a promise of life
revealing my blissful gratitude
another day of experience begins

Yet the Sun has not risen
and the Moon has not set
I sit between worlds

Aware of every moment as it unfolds
without judgment or concern
peacefully drinking it all in

Diamonds of Life

We are the Diamonds of Life
which reflect each others Light
being gathered together

Earthbound Angels
remembering that we are not alone

Unbinding Our Beliefs

17 Sunday Jan 2016

Tags

Artwork, Photography, Poetry, Reflection, Writing

2015_04_22_0250_

Unbinding is an odd word which we seldom use in our everyday vernacular. Yet I found it in a comment I made years ago, as I begin to gather several years of bits and pieces of them…

The practice of unbinding
is the reversal of flow
in which we learn that ecstasy
is achieved in the giving
rather than the receiving
a reversal
of what the world
would have us believe.
cRb 1.17.12

I sense that we are truly unbinding ourselves from so many beliefs that we feel much like the water in the picture above as it spills over the edge and into the sluice, which carries it to the river.
The ecstasy is in choice, the giving of choices both for ourselves and others.
The freedom to see life as a journey filled with opportunities to be realized.
No longer contained within the pond, we are now a stream of energy which interacts with everything it meets, without judgment or fear.

Take a moment to breathe
and know that you are alive
and it is wonderful.
Everything is possible.
Every moment is an opportunity.

cRb 1.17.10

Unconditional

I love when the letters turn into words and they create a whole new perspective… thought I would reblog this one…

Reflections of Riverman

Unconditional

On the Circle of Hearts radio show where I was a guest we were talking about detachment and during one of the breaks we had left off thinking about the word unconditional. Even with the commercial break blaring through my earphones this message came through.

Sometimes I try to rethink and rearrange the words but I Am told to leave it be…

Unconditional
U nified
N onjudgmental
C onstant
O verflowing
N atural
D ependanble
I nvitation
T o
I ntentionally
O rient
N everending
A ction
L ocally

Forgiveness and Surrender

13 Wednesday Jan 2016

Tags

Forgiveness

Forgive me for clicking to post this before I spellchecked and added the verse.
Mind has once again shown me where it needs to be forgiven.
Where my haste to accomplish needs to be more like the river, flowing in rhythm from its source, my heart.

We want to forgive, we talk about it, we read about, we give each other advice on it; we make it very difficult. Forgiveness is the way of the heart not the mind. It occurs quietly when we surrender to our hearts and quiet our minds.

New Moon Blessings

Welcome to 2016…

On the ninth of this month we will experience the first new moon of the year. I’m reminded once again of the many beginnings that come out of stillness of those times in our lives when we have to rely on our own light to guide us.

Over the past few days several old quotes of mine have surfaced, all of which reflect a sort of anticipation, and an awareness of new beginnings within myself.

…So let me share them here for your reflection…

1.8.11
With our hearts wide open
sitting still feels like we’re flying forward…

1.7.12
In Opening ourselves
we allow for the energy
of change
to take it’s place
within our cellular structure.
Never before has this opportunity
been so profound
as to have the whole of humanity
shift both it’s inner and outer beingness
at the same time.

1.7.12
As the world shifts and changes
it will be our intuition
that we must trust
because the lies will be many layers deep…

1.8.14
Quiet reflection is when
the space between you
and what you are thinking
is vaster than what you are experiencing…

So please take some time to meditate, reflect and embrace your True Inner Self; not only for this new year, but this new you that 2016 will unfold before you.

New Moon Blessings to each of you!

Discernment

Discernment

Discernment requires a heart
that is ready and willing
to listen and respond
to new information,
an open mind that is prepared
to let go of the old programming
and false beliefs,
and both the heart and mind
working in co-operation
with each other
to see things differently.

All that is Frozen – Thaws

Iced River.JPG

Winter has finally brought its, close to zero temperatures, here to Maine. Although this picture of the York River is not today, it is certainly what happens when tidal rivers are subjected to intense cold.

So as we all seek refuge from the cold, I begin to reflect on those moments frozen in my own deep inner self that need to be thawed and released.

Two messages from Spirit which end up as my poetry surfaced in the past two days. So sometimes technology works in ways to remind us of those items we just file away without giving them a second thought.

Let me share them here…

1.4.12
In the wake of celebration
let us ripple away
into the stillness
and reflect
the Light
which
stood still
as the world
in which we live
turns and returns to Love.
cRb

Yes the River still flows beneath the frozen surface and it still rises with the tides, so know in your hearts that we all are changing in order to become what we truly are

and on 1.5.13

All that has led us to this marvelous point in our evolution needs to be reviewed.
This will be the preparation for the marriage of heart and mind where no separation will ever exist again.
Call it Spring Cleaning if you will… and get rid of everything that no longer serves to keep your mind and heart open.

Perhaps it is a bit early for Spring Cleaning yet I feel that each of us are beginning to let go of our deep seated fears and early childhood traumas every time we freeze up and then thaw like the river above.

Within Her Heart

Crystal Caves Bermuda
Crystal Caves, Bermuda

From within Her heart
Mother Gaia calls
to all Her children

Come home dear ones
and remember Our Love
and Our Transformation

Hear my heartbeat
within your own
as a clarion call

Of joyous celebration
as we journey together
in balance and unity

For in the passing of time
much has been damaged
and needs re-calibration
