I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
Ive got to be free, free to face the life thats ahead of me
On board, Im the captain, so climb aboard
Well search for tomorrow on every shore
And Ill try, oh lord, Ill try to carry onI look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But well try best that we can to carry on A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said
They said come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
Singing come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me ~ dennis deyoung IP: Logged |

If you've got love in your heart, whatever you do from that moment out is likely to be right.
If you've got that one true note ringing inside you, then whatever you do is going to be OK.
It's love, always love.Ken Kesey Now is the Time Now is the time to know
That all that you do is sacred. Now, why not consider
A lasting truce with yourself and God. Now is the time to understand
That all your ideas of right and wrong
Were just a child's training wheels
To be laid aside
When you finally live
With veracity
And love. Hafiz is a divine envoy
Whom the Beloved
Has written a holy message upon. My dear, please tell me,
Why do you still
Throw sticks at your heart
And God? What is it in that sweet voice inside
That incites you to fear? Now is the time for the world to know
That every thought and action is sacred. This is the time
For you to compute the impossibility
That there is anything
But Grace. Now is the season to know
That everything you do
Is sacred. — Hafiz (translated by Daniel Landinsky) IP: Logged |

If You Forget Me by Pablo Neruda I want you to know one thing.
You know how this is:
if I look at the crystal moon,
at the red branch of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch near the fire the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats that sail
toward those isles of yours
that wait for me. Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.
If suddenly you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you. If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners that passes through my life,
and you decide to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember that on that day, at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land. But if each day, each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower climbs
up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be
in your arms without leaving mine.

It is in deep solitude that I find the gentleness with which I can truly love my brothers. The more solitary I am the more affection I have for them. Solitude and silence teach me to love my brothers for what they are, not for what they say. Thomas Merton

The subject tonight is Love
And for tomorrow night as well.
As a matter of fact,
I know no better topic
For us to discuss
Until we all die! Hafiz __________________ Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius.
Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
(1756-1791)
______________________ Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition.
Alexander Smith
_________________________ Love has its own time, its own season, and its own reasons for coming and going.
You cannot bribe it or coerce it or reason it into staying.
You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you.
Kent Nerburn

I am you and you are love and that is what makes the world go 'round.

Driven by the force of love, the fragments of the world seek each other that the world may come into being.Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
To give pleasure to a single heart by a single kind act is better than a thousand head-bowings in prayer.

Ye are the light of the world.
A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel,
but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets:
I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

I went into solitude,
whenever I went to you.I went inside myself,
whenever I went to you. I went to meet my soul,
whenever I went to you.
