Never Miss an Opportunity.

Amma P.

A suspicion of cheekiness,

plays  upon your lips.

A deep love for God, 

beats steadily within your heart.

A spark of Divine  love, 

dances in your eyes. 

And all your words,

are perfumed, 

with a wistful wisdom. 

That  soothes our weary minds

and nurtures our fragile hearts. 

Cafe Paradiso- Chapter 3 Dane

   She'd finished Uni studying architecture, found a job straightaway with an eco-friendly firm and realized pretty much right away, that it wasn't for her.

    She was working part-time now in her old job and had gone back to Uni to study nursing. Architecture had been her Dad's dream, not her's. 

    Life was pretty full at the moment, so being in a long distance relationship suited her perfectly. 

     She'd fallen in love with Dane, as soon as she had looked into those big brown eyes. He was so nervous when he first started talking to her. But he hadn't given up. She loved him just for that. 

    He wasn't like other boys, all confidence and no substance. She'd almost given up on the idea of ever finding a boy, who had the same longing to serve the world, as she did. 

    She saw it in Dane, buried underneath his insecurities and his awkwardness.

    He'd been a vegetarian since he was nine, and he had this thing with animals and babies. They would practically throw themselves at him trying to win his love. And he always seemed in awe of their innocence and their attention. 

     She loved that about him the most, his unaffectedness and his gentleness and those big brown eyes. And his muscly  arms. Oh and that Brad Pitt, kind of cheeky, smile. 

    She missed him and thought about him every day, but she was happy he was away. Most of the time.  

   She knew her studies would suffer if he were around. Another year and she'd be finished the first part of her degree and then she could start her practical. 

   Or if Dane was still traveling she'd take a year off and join him. 

   She hoped he'd still be traveling, it was one of the things that kept her going. 

   That and the long emails that he would send her. He would share everything with her. He was an open book. She loved that he trusted her with all of his innermost feelings and she knew that she could never break that trust and she never would.

     She also knew he hated being controlled, a thing his Mother had stirred  in him. 

     Because she was also a free spirit, she knew that would never be a problem between them.

All the Love that I Am.

All the love that I am is pointed at You,

that's the You in my heart,

that can't be divided by two. 

Shame.

The greatest waste in life,

is the time we give, 

to guilt and shame. 

See it as a game,

don't name and blame.  

There's never any benefit,

from feeling shame. 

And no lessons learnt, 

when we name and blame. 

One

The square root of 1, 

Is 1. 

1x1x1x1 to infinity.... is 1.

There's only one

and we are all one. 

Living your Truth.

There's no one closer to God

or further from God. 

There's just living your truth

and not living your truth. 

Contentment

The Everything that Is.

When you forget your the body

and you escape the mind. 

Your soul expands into,

the everything that is

and the nothingness that's bliss. 

Treasured Moments.

Treasuring every moment, 

is gracious 

and accepting. 

It's gracious 

and accepting

and it's being grateful

and not expecting.
