“The greatest wealth is a poverty of desires.” ~Seneca~

I recently wrote the Universe
Knowing in truth
a note to myself
about the parallel and oppositions
flowing through my mind
choices made
lessons learned
loses and gains

the presence of truth
the beauty of love
the grace of sensing
all the world within me

looking at my experiences
materially and spiritually
counting the blessings
in the loss of most material things
opening the heart
to the spirit

feeling an emptiness
of desires
of wanting to do this or that

wondering if I am out of alignment?
perspective off in some way?
Is my integrity intact
as I did stop walking my talk
In the sense of doing that and this?

Just didn’t have the need, want or desire for it

Feeling just a strange knowing
Of peace,
Of joy
And Being.

Embracing this…
Seemed odd
And somehow not right

Now realizing in truth
I am right on due course
To true Self
Living a freedom
Alien to me before.

Busyness not needed
My mind seems wanders
Maybe I ought to be doing
Then I stop and ask myself
a simple question

Is this my mind or my heart/soul speaking?

The words vanish most of the time
Unless the heart/soul speaking
The nudge to get moving start kicking in

I just smile with the brilliance of the signs
I am receiving for confirmation to my letter
Eight simple words placed before my eyes
“The greatest wealth is a poverty of desires.”
From the wisdom of Seneca

That emptiness is filling with love, joy, and compassion
As my world lifts up and beyond my mind’s desires and needs.
Knowing my needs and desires are already met.

It is worth repeating…
“The greatest wealth is a poverty of desires.” ~Seneca~

Embrace your emptiness
and let your heart fill it with Love
and the universe will deliver just what you need. ~jh

 

Simplicity of Thought

Simplicity of Thought

Simplicity of thought

A motion’s dance as the heart beats

Pulsating to the rhythm of breath

The key to opening the heart

Divorce of reason

Purity of the soul’s voice

Surrounding the truth

Hidden in sorrow’s tears and laughter

Come alive and center

Touch the wandering mind and adventures waiting

Dance with the words, wind’s whispering presence

Allow the mystic’s calling to take you

Focus on the breath

The simple motion of being

Release the need to know

The thoughts crowding your essence

Let go and be in the mists of imagination

Wondering through the clouds of indecisions and self-doubt

To the understanding of the true perfection of Love we all be.

Dreams of living dreams, realities created by that wandering mind

Thoughts dancing on the beauty, grace and possibilities

Impress your expressions

And the world opens their hearts with your vulnerability of brilliance.

On the edge of light and darkness

Balancing the realms of determinations

Choices of reasons creating the path of adventures

Come emerging in techno-color and panoramic vision

Smiling, laughter and joyous brings the steps

To travel on this journey of options and deliberate pondering. ~jh

When the Heart Softens, Worlds Open

When the Heart Softens, Worlds Open

{"Love" by Alexandr Milov}

{“Love” by Alexandr Milov}

Heart soften with the lingering thoughts of lessons, learned and yet to be learned. That inner knowing of things in anticipation, yet also the steps to get there; the scatteredness of all that is and yet to be fills the mind with anxiety and gratitude at the same time.

Words coming and going and wishing one could catch them all down before those beautiful butterflies of wisdom fly away. Or like a balloon filled with good cheers seemingly floating along for one to grab the string out of curiosity and wonder. The painted sky of colored clouds reflecting the brilliance this world has to share if one looks up for a moment of time with the inner child’s view and perspectives.

Once caught, the worlds of possibilities can open and spill out so many possibilities of potential… almost to overwhelm with such joy and merriment. Tears of such joy stream down the face and the download of lessons come again.

Softening the heart with the truth of why we chose these adventures and delightful lessons of the soul’s clearing. The music and dance of the soul drive the path and it is only when the mind calms down and the heart comes center in the breath, we understand the delivery of the messages through signs, people, and magic.

We enter this space and time in the void. Void of creation, void of potential, void of discoveries. And we hear the truth for the first time.

For me, it came with a car accident as I closed my eyes to enter this realm and hear, “You are love and loved. Don’t forget this.”

And I couldn’t forget this and it was often reminded to me as I sat, reflecting with a pen and journal or the keyboard humming under my fingertips.

Love and Loved. So many times I questioned this truth and yet when I felt this truth… magic happened.
