We all make mistakes, we all have fears, and we all have weaknesses. Behind all that is our essential self. When our essential self has made contact with another, the light is dazzling and would fill the universe. The challenge is to remain faithful to that light, to believe in it when it is not so apparent. Then that light becomes an incandescent glow and it wraps itself around everything……Marianne Williamson

we walk through so many gates, climb up and down ladders, and circle round our hearts many times….where do we settle down? how do we find peace? would we know it if we found it?

Our purpose is to flower;
to allow the full radiance of our inner being to unfold…
And I notice that what I thought

was the most private and tender
is often the most common and powerful when shared.
…….Helena

from above as below

Bring me your suffering.

The rattle roar of broken bones.

Bring me the riot in your heart.

Angry, wild and raw.

Bring it all.

I am not afraid of the dark.
