To live from a deep place is to go back or down to that origin of your life that is not in the least explained by the autobiographical myth. This leads to a practical consideration. All psychological & social problems are merely the manfestation of confluences we will never appreciate unless we can think mythically & theologically. Emerson said that only the poet knows astronomy. Perhaps only in our mystical moments do we know what is really happening in our lives……Thomas Moore
our angels have it tough…..they forever struggle with trying to lead us home to our truth….home to our true faces hidden behind a few illusions, a few worries, & a few rationalized stories….
come back to your roots…..your ancestors stories are as real as yours….
peak around & find those wings forever following & comforting….
We begin. We persevere. We start again. And there is always another stage, another peak. We struggle with self-consciousness in order to become fully conscious &, with individuation in order to belong. This forming of spiritual consciousness does not alienate us from the world of day-to-day responsibilities but makes us handle ourselves better in this realm. Union develops without our realizing it. The Sufi poets use the erotic language of paradox, losing self at the moment of self-discovery……Laurence Freeman
this is faith….this is an act of love….as we celebrate today, we celebrate our ancestors, our angels, our demons, our grace to humble ourselves in union with that which cannot be seen, only known…..
