My soul honours your soul.
I honour that the entire universe
resides within you.
I honour the light, love, truth,
beauty and peace within you,
because it is also within me.
In sharing
we are united,
we are the same,
we are one.
"I love this. I know for some people it's a little out there, but if you think about it we are all simply matter...that which can neither be created nor destroyed. Everything that each of us is made from has existed since the beginning of time and, in one form or another, will continue to exist for ever. When my mother and sister died, it was so comforting to think of each of them as part of the air, the stars, the sky...the lilacs and the butterflies. Naive of me perhaps, but I can't help believing that if only we could embrace this one fundamental idea we would all take a huge step forward towards living peacefully."JP
We have just lost someone to suicide. I am trying to come to terms with this and find comfort in this saying.
ReplyDeleteIm so sorry Chania. Suicide is a hard loss. We have had two family members take their own lives, so I think I can empathize. A wise priest told me once..."when their demons get a hold of them, there is no rationalizing, so don't even begin to try."
DeleteTake care of yourself.
Oh how I adore tabbies; proper cats!

Thank you so much for the Chant of the Bell Jeanne. Really needed that this morning.
DeleteSo well said, including the Leonard quote, that my only comment is "Hallelujah" and "Amen."
ReplyDeleteHallelujah = we rejoice
DeleteAmen = so be it
sometimes a word speaks volumes HA.
Namaste Jacqueline...a very beautiful post.

It's such a beautiful greeting isn't it Catherine?
DeleteDefinitely NOT too woo woo!!
ReplyDeleteAnd the Leonard Cohen, well that about sums everything up that needs summing up, I think. One of my favorite lines from LC.
xT.
mine too T...next to
Delete"the women tear their blouses off
and the men they dance on the polka-dots"
from Closing Time! LOL!
Perhaps it's showing my age, but "I ache in all the places where I used to play" somehow found itself coming to mind. But then isn't that why we love LC--he puts our thoughts into poetry.
ReplyDeleteGritty, raw, true...love, love, love the man HA.
DeleteThe path becomes clearer only after I focus on the One who made it.
