Guiloteen

Guiloteen

Guilt cannot extinguish fear

Tears sear soul's burning red cheeks of shame

Incomplete, we feel and find another to be near

"Off with thier heads!" cried the Queen of Hearts

To tarry, or marry for love, or comfort of money

Does not solve the riddle of life as a quest for truth

Only mars the surface unless one finds completeness

Self bcomes whole even when under the gun, or blade

In His healing ways of willing service and sacrifice

When the axe falls on a swan's graceful, slender neck

"Where is this love then?" she asks in retrospect

An image of wounds healed comes to active minds

Hands stretched out over ripples on water's surface

Has never been enough either, either way, with friend or foe

Crucible, a cup of forgiveness meant to sooth malicious charges

brings miraculous change to the changling who surrenders

Damage done erased for all time, thrown to the bottom of a deep sea

Far away and forgotten now, yes it can be

Gauntlet run amid the fire can heighten expectation's sure fire desire

Holy grail lifted to the lips brings relief of thirst, slackens, then disappears

Desire to heal becomes the sought after prize when eyes have cried enough

Inside heart blood flows to surges through opened channels of chattel's chatter

To pierce the mind's eye with more open-ended questions reveals all answers

Graceful proportions singled out finds an outlet in the service of the King

Enlightenment, meant for a way to find peace outside, and in

Over all the earth, throughout the universe, no disclaimer can ever claim Truth does not rule

The only way to find ourselves in safety is to carry the messages to the top of the hills

Shout it from the mountaintops, rooftops, everywhere we climb, step by step

Shout out the way home in public rather than so privately

Find we are never alone in any of our sufferings

Share a way to share a day, or more with no purchases of any kind

Find substance without substances

Character and personality flaws easier to carrect than one may think

Teach a lesson learned the hard way to help make another's path more simple

Within the self find time for another who must walk the path to the guilateen

To start a new way of life within the sanctity of forgiveness, never forgotten

Creativity: Life as an Art Form

To live each moment of every day in a state of graceful, gracious action with a purpose to bring more love and beauty to your world and the lives of others is the best way to be joyous!

With a loving heart as your center you can reach out and give to others, and never run out of something to contribute.

Artistry of the simplest tasks becomes an imaginative way to create elegance and fun!
As i write this and Steve plays the banjo for practice (he has a new student to get ready for and usually teaches guitar) I have to laugh because he has a new flute student also!
I've heard it said when we multi-task nothing gets done as well as when you focus on one thing and this may be true. All day, to work on various projects can be confusing but as long as we keep up the long hours, day after day the results will blossom over time. For the time being, a few moments at a time, time can stand still while we enjoy it!

The arts are one of the most important facets of the diamond of education. Without them learning would be bland. When you add them to the mix you gain excitement and clarity.
Color, sound, movement and fun become a way to illustrate and define any aspect.
We explore our inner selves through creative expression and become more well-rounded.
Music can reach those most difficult to touch inside the deepest part of the heart and mind.
To guide a soul to it's core with a painting, or the mastery of the act of painting we find beauty.

When a picture is worth a thousand words a book of beautiful illustration brings the imagination of a child or adult alive, more interest occurs. Poetry as well as good prose tell stories of adventure and historical relevance. Art is the best teaching tool in the world.
Keep it in, and bring it to schools more! Our students will be all the richer for it.

Think Positive

When we change our minds we change our lives and to change for the better always improves our circumstances all around. We decide how we feel so when you tell yourself good words, turn the negative into a positive and let go of control an amazing thing happens. God takes the wheel and steers you to where you are supposed to be and let's you meet the people who will make life better (once you are ready to work at making your life the way you really want it to be!) Opportunities are everywhere all around you and to tap into the wonderful possibilities you just smile and learn to attract good energy to you! When someone may try to prey on your better nature you would only give in if you want something in return for promises made. What you have to give is worth it's weight in gold when you come from the heart of the matter. What matters is not what you get, it is what you give. A loving and caring nature only goes unrewarded when you have undersold yourself. If you get disapointed, get excited instead-God had something better in mind for your life.

At any moment your life can head in any direction you choose, everything can change at any given second! Each and every second opens up opportunity. I live each day as if it were my last and give all i have to give in every direction possible. what changes my direction is if something is not working there is always another forum nearby. to not waste time lets me get an immense amount of projects accomplished and it is all a work in progress anyway.
