Prayer of thanks

For dreams and wishes, fears and failures, thank you
For spirit movers and dull intruders, thank you
For joyful breezes and stifling still, thank you
For life in colour and end in spite, thank you.

As I walk the gentle path, toward a now that is the spark,
I miss the fill that you provide
So trash the mill that is my mind.

You create and so do I
When I attach you push me to fly
into oblivion until I find
That grace is here, not in my mind

I search for magic like an obsessed seeker
You twist my drama you grim reaper
The miracles are here for all
The gifts unlimited, life and more
There is no need for nought but grace
And gratitude in Wirikuta space

Thank you for the steps I walk
And every moment I don't talk

Thanks for all the time I be
And for when I see and see
Thanks for touch and when they hold
And let me return the gifts of gold

The fortress that surrounds my heart
Is fragile when I sense Your art
And thankfully erodes in time
When oneness is beyond the line

It is enough this life I lead
I am sufficient to be the seed
Of all that is to share What Is
With love, mistakes and trying bliss

Thank you God and all your might
All your gentle and What Is not right

Grace Be

What is success?

Success is not giving a hoot.  If you can be a 45 year old cat woman playing in front of 3000 people, totally uninhibited, then you are succeeding.  Because if you are able to do that, you are in the present moment, not caring about what anybody else thinks.  Not worried about their judgements or how you think you should be coming across.  (ok, so I was a little worried, so not 100% successful, but I continue to strive to be free of this nonsence) When you have that presence of mind in front of animals, that is when you are succeeding. 

cove slaughter

I am saddened and battling to understand people again.  The cove dolphins are cordoned off, awaiting slaughter.  Some being taken to dolphin facilities world wide.  How do people stand there and do this?  How do they sleep at night with those decisions in their head?  Then again how do we all?  Driving to a bird sanctuary yesterday I saw a cattle truck on its way to the abattoir.  What is the difference?  Then I saw a bearded vulture at the sanctuary.  Only 320 of the left in the world and they are planning wind generators in their area – a certain death certificate.  Here is a prayer – look into the eyes of an animal.  Or a human.  See them for the miracle that they are.  Then make choices that are respectful and loving.  As yourself – What would love do?  I am so grateful that I am surrounded by animals.  And so grateful that there is no effort required for me to care for them. 

A Lesson in Surrender

  I always found the concept of surrender a cop out.  Something one would do if one was too weak to take on a situation.   So, when I found myself in a situation where I am unable to follow my passion in the most effective manner, I experienced great discomfort.  Speaking up was immediately taken as judgement.  Even though it was never intended as that.  The presumed judgement resulted in defence.  And the drama began, and unfolded.   Chasms and vindication ruled.  Frustration and finger pointing. What has this to do with animals?   For those of us that work with animals, they are like kids.  They sense how we feel.  Our moods affect them.  So, when this type of angst environment is created, the disturbance affects the creatures that we love. The lesson – stop the angst.  It is not worth upsetting the animals.  Nothing is.  So, surrender.  Not sure where this will go.  But I am here righ...
