Detours

It’s not easy to rise

covered in the mud of failure

and take another step.

It’s not easy to dwell

in sorrow

when a dream disappears.

Determination and surrender

form the bridge

that leads from despair

to hope and peace.

Step by step we climb,

until our destiny unfolds.

Horse Rights?

It’s Business

Clipity clop, clip pity clop.

Equus, majestic beauty,

you pull carriages

for oblivious tourists

who enjoy a ride

that allows you to be

enslaved, used by those

who ignore empty eyes

and steal your freedom.

Enthralled by profit,

coveting ease, earth’s

guardians become tormentors.

What is a Human Being?

Inspiring thoughts from Jacob Needleman.

A Calm Mind

Unbound

Earth doesn’t have to be a
scary place
where “what if’s” snare joy
and gnaw at peace.
The world can be a
gentle space
where beauty thrives and
Love’s Presence silences
all that threatens her
supremacy.

Rubaiyat, by M.A. Kashoo

Here is an excerpt from one of Amin's poems:


"Delve the depths within,
suffuse in unlimited radiance.
I plunged into the ocean of love
and found Him there in every drop."

From a Rubaiyat, by M.A. Kashoo

Today's Inspiration

The tenderness of one who consciously lives in the attribute of Mildness reflects the exquisite presence of God’s gentle care. Those who dwell in Mildness are infinitely calm, tolerant and powerful.
