"This
is my chance, this is my life
And my opening hour
This is my choice, this is my voice
There may be no tomorrow
This is my plea, this is my need
This is my time for standing free
This is my step, this is my depth
In a world demanding of me
But is's okay.......
It's okay,
we've all seen better days
It's okay,
you don't have to run and hide away
It's okay
It's okay,
yeah we love you anyway..."
"He
could've tuned in, tuned in
But he tuned out
A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles
He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee
A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at me now"
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh, power, oh
He's.. flying
Whole
High.. wide, oh
He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
By faceless men, well, fuckers
He still stands
And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
The love he receives is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly
High.. flying
Oh, oh
High.. flying
Oh, oh
He's flying
Oh, oh"
Gotta love Eddie.
I do anyway :-).
Nite.
Love you.

If you have become ash ,
Then wait you become a rose again.
And do not remember how often you have become ash
But how often you were reborn in ashes to a new rose.

It
just kept going through my head all afternoon and early evening as I rested on the couch and listened to Christmas music.
"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27.
It wasn't coming from me.
I just kept hearing it over and over in the back of my mind.
I didn't even bother to look up which verse it was till just now.
It was like a song on repeat in the background.
I didn't consciously seek it out. It was just there.
I know where that comes from.
Thankful everyday.
Every day.
For the roof over my head, the clothes on my back, and the food in my belly.
Everyday.
Regardless of whats going on all around me.
Anything else?
Blessings.
Lady told me at service this morning that they need me at New Chapel :-).
I've never been told that by a church member before in my life :-).
The advent prayer?
"Hold onto hope."
Deal.
Love you Virgie.
BTW
This is Hancock County KY for goodness sakes.
The whole fucking county knows.
You're over there acting like it's some top secret or something and the fact is everybody already knows lol.
And I'm like "Woman please..."
All
I've seen you "deliver" is a bunch of horse shit.
Bahahahahahahaha
I can walk back to Christian's barn and get that all on my own.
Told ya I'm good without ya.
Bahahahahahahaha.
Love ya Lucy.

logic 101 explained in a nutshell:
Be there at the drop of a hat every second of everyday for three and a half years for me.
Okay now go away.
Okay now figure out when I want either of the above switched interchangeably at random without me ever telling you.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
This is why we love you guys so much :-).
Thanks for coming.
Drive home safely.

You think you are alive because you breathe air?
Shame on you, that you are alive in such a limited way.
Don't be without Love, so you won't feel dead.
Die in Love and stay alive forever.
From
a friend of mine who happens to be a retired UMC preacher and calls Hilldale UMC his home church:
Advent Day 22
Luke 1:46b-551:46b "My soul magnifies the Lord, 1:47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,1:48 for he has looked with favor on the lowliness of his servant. Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed;1:49 for the Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name.1:50 His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation.1:51 He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts.1:52 He has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly;1:53 he has filled the hungry with good things, and sent the rich away empty.1:54 He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy,1:55 according to the promise he made to our ancestors, to Abraham and to his descendants forever."
Often referred to as "Mary's Song" or "Mary's Magnificat" (my soul magnifies) these verses in Luke give us an impression of who Mary was when she carried the baby Jesus.
Scholars argue regarding her age; some argue regarding her marital status; some argue regarding whether or not she and Joseph had consummated their relationship prior to getting married. None argue that she was NOT the mother of Jesus!
Who was Mary? Most Christian teachings say she was young (14 - 16 years old); a virgin (based on a passage in Isaiah); and no one who stood out due to wealth, beauty, or status in society. In that day and time, women were considered "property" of the male head of the household and often traded or used to barter for political or land holding security.
When asked to "step up" to carry out some task related to ministry in the local church, too many respond by saying: "I don't think I'm up to that." What would have happened if Mary had responded that way?
More than likely you have seen the posting that goes something like this: "God does not call the qualified, He qualifies the called." While we may "feel" that we are not up to the task, God will supply the necessary courage, strength, and ability for what God has called us to do. And as Mary showed us, we don't have be a special kind of person nor hold a special status in society to do God's will. When we surrender ourselves and say, "Yes," God can and will do great things through us.
Allow Advent to work in your spirit to discern God's calling in your life--United Methodism teaches EVERY believer is called (Priesthood of all believers). Then, allow Advent to be a time to seek God's leading in how to prepare and to proceed.

I
asked myself leaving today,
"What should I expect?"
The answer which came almost immediately without much thought was:
"Expect them to do any and everything to make you think it's not happening."
I Told you a long time ago.
You're about as predictable as they come Lucy.
Well...
Him and the entity that ordained him a prophet.
They both say don't worry.
I say okay.
Deal.
Hard sometimes.
Still a deal though.
Morning
beautiful.
They every last one said I was crazy.
I thought just the opposite.
I thought it would be crazy not to.
Love you.
You
know whose voice it is:
"Yeah...ummmmm...if we could do away with some of your bull shit this time?
Yeah...
That would be great..."
Love ya Bambi.

Foundational principles:
Nayat Khan set forth ten principles that formed the foundational principles of his Universal Sufism:
There is one God; the Eternal, the Only Being; None exists save He.
There is one master; the guiding spirit of all souls that constantly leads all followers toward the light.
There is one holy book; the sacred manuscript of nature, the only Scripture that can enlighten the reader.
There is one religion; unswerving progress in the right direction toward the Ideal, which fulfills every soul's life purpose.
There is one law; the law of reciprocity, which can be observed by a selfless conscience, together with a sense of awakened justice.
There is one brotherhood; the human brotherhood which unites the children of earth indiscriminately in the fatherhood of God. This was later adapted by followers to; "There is one Family, the Human Family, which unites the Children of Earth indiscriminately in the Parenthood of God."
There is one moral; the love which springs forth from self-denial and blooms in deeds of beneficence. ... (later alternative; "which springs forth from a willing heart, surrendered in service to God and Humanity, and which blooms in deeds of beneficence").
There is one object of praise; the beauty which uplifts the heart of its worshipper through all aspects from the seen to the unseen.
There is one truth; true knowledge of our being, within and without, which is the essence of Wisdom.
There is one path; annihilation of the false ego in the real (later alternative; "the effacement of the limited self in the Unlimited"), which raises the mortal to immortality, in which resides all perfection.

Dance, when you're broken open.
Dance, if you've torn the bandage off.
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance when you're perfectly free.

along the lines of that last post.
Can somebody please explain to me the difference between not growing up and becoming the person you knew you could always be?
Just really not seeing to much difference over here to be honest.

If I hold you in my heart, you'll wither;
Become a thorn if I hold you in my eyes.....
No, I'll make a place for you within my soul instead,
So you'll be my love in lives beyond this life.
I
knew you were the baddest fuckin woman I had ever met within minutes.
A few minutes later it dawned on me you would be the baddest fuckin woman I would ever meet.
No decision to be made at that point.
It had already been made.
You don't have to tell me how awesome you've been today or the last few days.
I already know.
Pretty fucking awesome.
Sorry bout the cussing.
Need to work on that.
Nich thinks so too lol.
Love you.

"Not Much Further Now"
it's not much further now
i can feel the cool air on my skin
my breath floating like a misty fog
in front of me
.
the quiet stillness of winter coming
above me around me
beneath my feet as heavy boots crunch
the fallen autumn leaves
.
not much further now
til i reach home
where the fires are warm
and the chill can no longer
touch my bones
.
not much further now
til you're in my arms
and all the troubles of
the world
.
are far away
.

Rumi
Sorrow prepares you for joy. It violently sweeps everything out of your house, so that new joy can find space to enter. It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart, so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place. It pulls up the rotten roots, so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow. Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart, far better things will take their place.
Warren Buffett
“It’s better to hang out with people better than you. Pick out associates whose behavior is better than yours and you’ll drift in that direction.”
Dreams
Why on earth dream a small one?
What in the world is the purpose in that?
Why not dream the biggest dream you could ever imagine?
Sitting in your chair thinking about it makes it still a dream.
Putting wheels in motion to make it take place makes it a goal to work toward.
So what if you fail.
You can always do what you're doing right now.
At least you had the courage to try.
If you succeed or fail It's inspiring.
Others will look and say, "Hey they did it, I can too."
Love you Lucy.

his soul shines and
no one is looking

Well...okay.
I
really like the image :-).
Think you know why.
I was there.
I got lost.
I'm almost back.
Just knowing you're headed in the right direction sometimes makes all the difference in the world.
Please take what I said to you in text just now to heart.
It's best for everybody.

Inside the Great Mystery that is, we don't really own anything.
What is this competition we feel then, before we go, one at a time, through the same gate?
Rumi
I will be waiting here.
For your silence to break
For your soul to shake
For your love to wake.
Always.
Just like always.
All day everyday till the end of days Dollbaby.
Meant it then.
Mean it now.
I will mean it tomorrow.
And every day there after.
I say what I mean.
And I do what I say.
It's just easier.
Love you.
