healing awareness judgment
Healing is bringing mercy and Awareness into that which we have held in judgment and fear.
love-you eye healing
I have seen many die, surrounded by loved ones, and their last words were ‘I love you.’ There were some who could no longer speak yet with their eyes and soft smile left behind that same healing message. I have been in rooms where those who were dying made it feel like sacred ground. (26)
forgiveness healing self-love
Letting ourselves be forgiven is one of the most difficult healings we will undertake. And one of the most fruitful. (79)
healing compassion names
It is not for the concept, but for the experience, that we use the term the Beloved. The experience of this enormity we falteringly label divine is unconditioned love. Absolute openness, unbounded mercy and compassion. We use this concept, not to name the unnameable vastness of being-- our greatest joy-- but to acknowledge and claim as our birthright the wonders and healings within.
healing loving-life swings
...healing comes not from being loving but from being itself. It is not a case of being clear but of clear being. This healing is not about anything else but being itself. Nothing separate, no edges, nothing to limit healing. Entering, in moments, the realm of pure being, the gateless gate swings open- beyond life and death, our original face shines back at us.
heal touched
To heal is to touch with love that which we previously touched with fear.
healing compassion wounded
Healing comes when we meet our wounded places with compassion.
grief sadness healing
Grief can have a quality of profound healing because we are forced to a depth of feeling that is usually below the threshold of awareness.
pain healing definitions
If there is a single definition of healing it is to enter with mercy and awareness those pains, mental and physical, from which we have withdrawn in judgment and dismay. (48)
motivational pain healing
We are motivated more by aversion to the unpleasant than by a will toward truth, freedom, or healing. We are constantly attempting to escape our life, to avoid rather than enter our pain we, and we wonder why it is so difficult to be fully alive. (43)
what would you say? And why are you waiting?
act almost chance formidable frankly interest maybe nuisance party point rodney self view
What's in it for them ? who knows? Maybe they just feel it's a chance to weaken the ACT Party and Rodney who would be a nuisance, he's a formidable person... frankly from the point of view of self interest it's almost like nuisance litigation.
call soon
If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting?
I have never lived a life so much larger than death. (93)
