coping

word so easily flow for me,

yet this evening I am at a loss

I am trying to understand, how one so young can no longer want to live

while we wait, for news, if he will make it through this tragedy

I thank God for my blessings, and for the life I’ve lived

I ask myself, could I have done more

should I have known, were there signs that I missed

no one can know of course, what is really in someone else’s heart

how heavy the burden must have been

how alone he must have felt

now we wait and hope it is not too late.

Please pray for all the quiet souls who suffer in silence

so caught up in our own needs and wants

we sometimes forget to look around

and reach out with kindness

to someone who could use a friend.

I hold you all in my prayers

even though the miles are many and the distance way too far

for me to physically reach out and touch you

know that you never leave my mind.

and to you who is now clinging to what is left of your life

I close my eyes and pray with all my might

that the gentle hand of God will do what is right

& allow the blessing of peace this night

the lonely tear

the rain fell, I could hear it beating relentlessly on the window pane

I knew eventually it would end, just like I knew that tomorrow

would be another day, whether the sun shone, or it didn’t

the pain inside, would still be the same

when we open our hearts to love without restriction, only unconditional love

we agree to the live the roller coaster of emotion that will eventually

wash over us. as we are betrayed by the one lonely tear

that single tear that escapes to leave a trail of scaring from the past

reminding us … that… like the love songs on the radio

to know love is to know sadness and sorrow

no, not for love lost, but for a love so strong that it embraces the hurt and disappointments

of another, and cries in frustration at not being able to erase the other’s pain

to love with untethered , unbridled passion, so intense, so powerful

that the one single tear,holds the commitment of all eternity

a love pure. strong and so divine, that no name or word can describe

the wonder of that single tear

one can’t know love without knowing the agony of a bruised and broken heart

to open up to a love so sublime that the single tear is a subliminal message

to the brain and heart, that at this moment, at this time, you are in a state

of now and forever… the lonely tear is a testament to all that has gone before

and the proof a human heart beats in time to the

rhythm of life’s ongoing energy

of love in the now

forever and always

amen

taken from Chinese verses by Sengtsan, Translation from Chinese by Richard B. Clarke

The Great Way – TAO – is not difficult,

for those who have no preferences.

When love and hate are both absent

everything becomes clear and undisguised.

Make the smallest distinction, however,

and heaven and earth are set infinitely apart.

If you wish to ee the truth

then hold no opinions for or against

The struggle for what one likes and what

on dislikes, is the disease of the mind

When the deep meaning of things is not understood

the mind’s essential peace is disturbed to no avail

The Way is perfect like vast space

where nothing is lacking and nothing is in excess.

Indeed, it is due to our choosing to accept or reject

that we do not see the true nature of things.

Live neither in the entanglements of outer things, or the in inner feelings of emptiness.

Be serene (without striving activity) in the oneness of things and such erroneous views will disappear by themselves.

When you try to stop activity to achieve passivity your very effort fills you with activity.

As long as you remain in one extreme or the other. You will never know Oneness.

Sometimes when the road ahead seems unsure,there is nothing to do but to pray, Trust in the Universe to guide you on what you need to do. There is a difference between closing our eyes to what should be done, and trying everything else we can do, so that we can escape the road that should and must be taken. AND, simply not knowing how or what to do because you are overwhelmed with the present, and find you cannot make a decision.

No one is spared that inner voice that comes to us in the night, or during the day and whispers words that cause us doubt, and lead us to worry.

We have the voice of reason, and the voice of doubt, AND, yes there is an AND, we have our connection to the Universe that is the strongest of all, and the ONE that is pure and true. It is not part of the mind, but of your heart/soul/spirit.

My prayer is that God/Universe will always see me through, not when I want it to happen, but when the time is right, I will know what to do.
