Humanness

Religions come out of our humanness...
they flourish only as long,
as they are nourished ,
by our humanness. 

Humanness is the soil
and religion is the tree,
that grows in that soil. 

Some take care of the soil, 
others tend the tree
and some fight,
for possession of the fruit.

Desire

Desire,
then Commitment,
then Determination,
with Surrender, Faith, 
Patience and Confidence...
total acceptance of Gods will
with no attachment,
to the fruits of our labor.

The Love of the Mother.

The love of the Mother,
 is the warmth of the Father. 

The warmth of the Mother,
is in the love of the Father.

We cradle this love,
deep in our hearts.
It's a love that we know,
will never depart. 

Putting God first
and basking,
in Her light.

We're thankful for Her gifts
and resigned,
to life's shifts. 

We swoon in Her arms,
at peace in Her calm. 

We're in love with her sweetness,
unable to explain any,
of Her deepness. 

We're eating all of Her fruits
and letting go of all our disputes. 

We are connecting to Her Shakti
and we are immersed in the Bhakti. 

We have surrendered to a love,
that is beyond any understanding. 

We have surrendered to a love,
that is guilt free 
and not demanding. 

She is teaching us how, 
to get out of our emotions,
that our body is a temple
and to give up on self-promotion.

We have to take control,
of all, 
of our senses. 
We have to get rid,
of all, 
our pretenses. 

We have to give up,
on all expectations,
and all of the vices
and stop testing Her patience. 

We have to concentrate 
and meditate
and practice,
all of Her teachings. 

There is nothing but Her love,
and there is no chance,
of overreaching.

The Real.

He'll never force his faith upon you,
you'll need to cultivate your own. 

He'll never force his God upon you,
you'll need to find him all alone. 

If we chase something as an alternative,
to escape our empty hearts,
we'll just be embracing another misery,
excited for yet another start. 

Just sitting in his company,
won't always bring us peace and joy. 
We must work upon our minds,
until the mind has been
destroyed. 

He knows what stuff is needed,
for us to wake up to what's real
but he'll never force upon us 
and from our hearts he'll never steal. 

We must turn our eyes upon him
and turn our backs upon the world. 

We must turn our eye upon him
and trust, 
the mystery will unfurl. 

We must acknowledge our desires
and not hide them from his eyes. 

We must give up our attachments
and stop living a shallow lie. 

He understands our inner yearnings 
and knows that we are blessed. 

The proof of his renouncing 
is how's he's unaffected by his surroundings. 

Wether honored or insulted
he doesn't run,
from where he's standing. 

He's promised protection to,
the Divine within 
and he knows that he will win. 

He's fearless and determined
and unwavering in his faith. 

He's self-confident and indominatable
and he's always running late. 

It's his love 
that will make you come unstuck
and finally see what is unreal. 

It's his love 
that will see you come undone
and finally reach out for the Real.

Love

L is for laughter, always be light. 

O is for open, with God in our sights. 

V is for victory over all of our senses and

E is for empty of all of our tension. :-)

The Purpose of This Life.

To put God first, others second and myself last. 

To make the choices that serve God, those around me, as well as me and my higher purpose.

To always love my Mum and all the Mothers. 

 To love and help family, all are family. 

To serve God and to see God in me and to serve the God in me. 

To be a good Father. 

To see God in everyone and everything.

 To take care of every living thing around me.

To control my desires and focus on what's important.

To smile and breathe deeply.

 To live freely and laugh loudly.

 To judge no one.  

To help everyone. 

To be and to become. 

To understand and express my gifts to my fullest potential. 

To offer all my work to God as a thank you for this extraordinary  life. 

To give fully of myself with compassion and love.

 To be in love, to be of love and to love.

Never Give Up!

Never stop loving,
with all that you have.

Never stop giving,
of all that you have.

Never stop caring,
with all that you are.

And never stop sharing,
with all of your heart.

There's always enough love,
for us to be overly generous.

It's only our pride,
that decides who our friends are.

We must give and give
and never give up.

We must love and share,
for there's always enough.

Never Apart.

When your head rules your heart,
love will always depart. 

When your heart rules your head,
you and love will never be apart.

I Always Knew I Loved You.

I always knew I loved you
but I never knew how much. 

I always knew I'd miss you
but it was nothing but a hunch. 

All to quickly the time has come.
for you to take your final bow Dad. 

The day has come for us to say goodbye
but I'm not quite sure,
just how. 

You're  always in my heart Dad,
you're my Hero through and through. 

I'll never forget the love you shared,
it was so simple, pure and true xo.

He Loved Children

He loved  children
He loved animals
He loved people
He was curious and
would talk to anyone. 

He never talked about love,
but he lived it. 

He didn't talk much of generosity
but he was generous. 

He didn't speak much of kindness
but he practiced it. 

He didn't go around telling everyone, 
that he loved them, 
he just assumed that you realized that. :-)

He was the gentlest 
and most patient man,
that I knew as a child. 
He was my Hero. 

He was a loving Father and Grandfather,
Husband and friend. 
He will be sorely missed. 

Dad thank you for some of my oldest
and fondest memories. 
Thank you for your  kindness,
your generosity 
and your acceptance
but most of all it's your sweetness that will be missed. 
You didn't have a mean bone in your body. 

Good-bye old friend you were graceful 
to the end. 
From our hearts you'll never leave...
It's just to honor you ,
we grieve 😊🙏💛
