I have no desire to be kissed...

Tonight I'm going to dream that I'm Jo in Funny Face. Back in Paris, going fishing for the first time, jazz dancing in a smokey club, wearing Givenchy in the Louvre, and having a gem of a man like Dick Avery/Fred Astaire think that my funny looking face is something beautiful.

You're too sweet for Rock n' Roll


"Never take it seriously, you never get hurt. Never get hurt, you can always have fun. And if you ever get lonely, you just go to the record store and visit all your friends."


The opposite direction of this too-big world...

"...no girl had ever moved me with a story of spiritual suffering and so beautifully her soul showing out radiant as an angel wandering in hell and the hell the selfsame streets I’d roamed in watching, watching for someone just like her and never dreaming the darkness and the mystery and eventuality of our meeting in eternity.."
The Subterraneans, Jack Kerouac

Unpractical magique

I wish I could cast a spell that would erase the water mark of your existence printed on my heart.

Her name was, Love.

"If you trust and love me, put your trust and love into action in every aspect of your life-emotional, sexual, spiritual, social, political-with my passion, my clarity, my unsentimental practicality. Know that my revelation is a revolution, a revolution that demands calmly a transformation of all the terms and conditions of life on earth. Establish justice for all in my world, in my name, and in my spirit of all-embracing, inexhaustible compassion. Let no one be poor, or discriminated against; may all sentient beings everywhere be cherished and safe and protected from harm by law and by love. Turn to me now and I will fill you with all the grace, strength, courage, and passion you need to transform the world at every level into a living mirror of my truth, my love, and my justice. If you truly love me, change everything for me."
~Andrew Harvey 





Dear Mother-Father God,
In Your name, I bless the world.
I commit myself to justice, mercy and compassion.
I consciously set my foot on the path of radical transformation.
May all of my thoughts and deeds reflect Your will.
Your truth is the fire that fuels and compels me.
Holy Spirit, come--abide in and through me now.
May love be the rule I live by.
And so it is.
Amen

Dear God, I believe that You are present in each moment of every day.
Therefore, my spiritual practice is to notice Your movement,
to increase my awareness of Your presence.
As awareness grows, faith is strengthened and peace is established.
You are the both source and the journey of life.
Help me notice your handiwork and share Your love with my fellow travelers.
Thank You.
