You’ve got to sing like you don’t need the money Love like you’ll never get hurt You’ve got to dance like nobody’s watchin’ It’s gotta come from the heart Susanna Clarke, 20th century #Photography #Wisdom #Poetry #SpeirGorm #India #ImageAndVerse #ArtOfBlueSky #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin

India is the only place where gods must dance. If they cannot dance they cannot be gods! This is because the closest analogy they give to the phenomenon of creation is that it is like a dance. Shiva is the cosmic dancer also known as the Natraj.

🙏 Once we were particles of Light. Now we are Beings of Light, radiating Love. Rumi

Sometimes introverts need to recharge their social batteries for an entire weekend. If you can't find us, don't worry. We are fine.

Slavic chthonic Hekate

“Our humanity comes to its fullest bloom in giving. We become beautiful people when we give whatever we can give: a smile, a handshake, a kiss, an embrace, a word of love, a present, a part of our life…all of our life.” — Henri J.M. Nouwen, Life of the Beloved: Spiritual Living in a Secular World

If you falter on the path, forgive yourself, then begin again. O Lord, what becomes of the yogi who falters? Krishna: Dear one, no effort is lost. None who do good ever come to harm. Bhagavad Gītā 6:39–40 (Paraphrase)

"To accomplish great things we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe." - ANATOLE FRANCE More Star magic this morning ✨✨🌹

“Jesus was emotionally open, allowing Himself to weep, to be angry, to be joyful, and to feel compassion. His emotional depth shows us that true masculinity embraces vulnerability and emotional honesty.” - The Road to Daybreak

I hopped on my bike today and put this song on. Then I had to rest in bed 🧘‍♀️👊 Getting there after breaking all those ribs. youtu.be/OeVgcIFEh3I?...

Bhakti (Devotion) Those who follow this immortal dharma of devotion, full of faith, regarding Me as the supreme goal — they are exceedingly dear to Me. Bhagavad Gita

I danced in the morning when the earth was young I danced on the stars on the moon and the sun Then it was time to dance on earth In bethlehem I had my birth

I danced for the scribes and pharasees. They wouldn't dance they wouldn't follow me I dance for the fisherman James and John They followed me and the dance went on.

I danced on the sabbath I cured the lame. The holy one's said it was a dirty rotten shame They hit me hurt me hung me high Left me on the cross to die

I danced in the evening when the world turned black Its hard to dance with the devil on your back They thought I was dead they thought I was gone. But I am the dance and the dance goes on

They cut me down I sprang up high I am the dance that will never never die I believe in you, you believe in me I am the Lord of the dance said he.

Dance dance wherever you may be I am the lord of the dance said he And I'll lead you all wherever you may be I'll lead you all to the dance said he. 1864

Word of warning read verses from bottom up for it to make sense and it was 1848.

Right about now, the honk shoo brother

Love is coming from nowhere and it is endlessly touching everyone and everything.

Not only are we always creating ripples in time and space, but we are a ripple. Rumi wrote that we are not just a drop in the ocean, but the entire ocean in a drop.

Courage starts with three words: “Not this time.”

To have fallen So far from The tree Somewhat Bruised but Otherwise Unencumbered By familial Prejudices And misgivings With much thought Though About gravity And ancestry And even The indoctrination Of learn-ed Institutions On the predilections Of a semi-free Albeit curious soul #poetry #vss

The term "Apache tears," referring to obsidian pebbles, comes from the 1870s legend of 75 Apache warriors who rode their horses off a mountain rather than admit defeat against the US Cavalry. When their families wept, their tears turned into black stones. #LegendaryWednesday

In the many versions of the Latin-American tale of La Llorona, the spirit of a grieving, remoseful woman who drowned her children now wanders the earth in eternal purgatory, weeping and wailing as she searches for them, sometimes kidnapping children to replace them. #LegendaryWednesday

I'm feeling a bit Jackson Pollock today.. (but underneath, interestingly calm) Supermoon🌕Wednesday

Before: need to take care of some full moon ancestral business today After: Well, that felt good. Phew. Happy full moon 🌝 🌕

Good Wednesday morning Morning of full moon. Resting into this to start a big day. Godspeed to all experiencing strong personal growth shifts at this time. The full moon magnatizes new timeline shifts. I found this is a wonderful meditation to rest into today ✨️ thankyou @henrinouwen.bsky.social

Old and new growth as each of us is. The natural world is full of allegory for our human lives and yet we so often forget the intimidate connection between the two.

The great paradox and challenge I find is that when life is at its most difficult I tend to disparage myself and my practice the most. Yet, these hard times are exactly what I most need for growth. Extra weight builds muscle. It is the same on the spiritual path. Time to focus the hardest.

Don’t be ashamed when failing to reach spiritual goals. Your bad habits have been ingrained for years even many lives. Persistence is what matters most. Slowly, surely, you are heading in the right direction. God is your guide and friend not your hanging judge. Stay the course.

The park bench. Old and new growth
