Path of Beauty

The path to joy
is paved with surrender

It is a short path

Meanwhile, a flower
in the garden
doesn’t always recognize
it’s own beauty…

Help is Here Always

Hold On!
with all your love!
As you surrender
all that does not serve you
Help is not only on it’s way
It’s here now always!

Surrender

I surrender my stubborness
In doubt, I take it back
I give up my attachments
In nostalgia, I re-attach
I forgive those trespassers
In resentment, I chew some more
I release the need to control
Fear wells up with rules
I surrender my will over and over
Then in denial or lack, I fall once more
And so the dance goes…
I surrender again

Serenity of Service

Loving the least
in all our humanity
Filling our cup
at the well of service
Bowing our heads
in all humility
giving it up
Surrender and peace
True serenity

Wrinkles

I discovered long ago
that my weaknesses
and wrinkles in my life,
my shadows, if you will,
are the challenges
toward glory —
The purpose of my path…
So, I’m loving all my wrinkles
nowadays, embracing my fears
as I dance with sweet abandon —
Surrender to the light
