The sword of your enemy is the chissel which wrests from you all that
is not your true essence and destiny, and sculpts of you a monument to
Heaven. She who does not provoke herself to shed the accumulated
dross, shall be provoked to do so by her enemies (so-called).

How subtle is wisdom (or how dense are we)? It tells you one thing in
this moment, and something entirely different the next. Wisdom says
"Duck!" when the adversary swings for your head, and "Jump!" when he
swings for your legs. How can you hope to hear wisdom just once? You
will hear only "Duck!", and all wisdom to you will be "duck". You
will consequently duck when you should jump, and will lose your legs!
Another, hearing only "Jump" will lose his head! The lessons of
Wisdom are always new, and we are always students of The One who
teaches. Wisdom speaks to you always in the moment. Be listening!

The words of the prophets are a song, not meant to be taught, but to
be sung. If they teach, that is an after-effect. The prophet is not
conscious of teaching, but of singing The Word(s) as revealed to her.
Does a bird teach? Perhaps. But, firstly, she sings.

I hope you are feeling better.
And I hope you know what an inspiration you are,
shining your high spirits in the midst of your dark times.
I see it, and I know others do too.

Guess what?!? They have been searching for an active link for 'The Secret' in Universal Codes, and SunChild (that blessed little mystical goddess) found it and posted it! I get to watch it either tonight or tomorrow.
Thank you thank you thank you What a good friend you are! I am blessed too.

You are easy to praise!

Your blog is great too, I found a favorite that you had previously posted and a couple new favorites! I left the page up so I could read them again tomorrow. I might find one to write in my "favorite quotes" journal.

It is by loving the music of the prophets,
or the birds,
that we come to understand their meaning;
we only capture the spirit of this music
when we are captured by it.
The prophet's song is one of love
and celebration of God and life,
as is the song of the bird.
To listen with love
(to love listening),
is to love the universal theme of their prolific singing,
which is love itself;
love of all.

Furthermore,
it is only in the spirit of this love
that it becomes possible
to discern the relevent interpretations
of the various words, phrases, and sounds.
Truly,
an ear for music,
rather than a distinguishing intellect,
is essential to the success of this pursuit.

to soften rocks or bend a knotted oak."

The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
