Balance

Balance

Shifting to and fro

not knowing which way to go,

social media can seem

so consuming at times,

until I realized

to go nowhere at all

was the real goal.

To stop,

to step back,

or pause,

hit the reset

if you will,

to just take a break

and find

a new balance point

and then

to move on from there,

recentered, refreshed

 and ready to go.

All My Love Always, Keith

Lighting Up Your Soul

Lighting Up Your Soul

Notes flow,

thoughts flow,

words flow.

The music fills the Soul.

The body feels

the frequencies of bliss

reverberating through the body;

heard, felt, experienced.

Lilting, floating rhythms,

and verses stirring

a primal knowing

taking you on a journey

into the Soul

of the experience.

Open the door

to feeling, moving,

and sensing the tones,

the inflections,

the rhythm of the voices.

Moving you,

lighting up your Soul

to the beauty of it.

A musical flow lost

in a dance with your senses.

Namaste

dear ones

you are so very Loved.

All My Love Always, Keith

Rise

Rise

What rises from the stillness

as you quiet yourself

and let your thoughts slip

into the ethers?

What is this knowing?

What is this feeling?

As the sun sets

on your thoughts

what is it

that rises in you?

Is it an awareness?

An awareness

that you are more

than the body.

You are more than

 what the body feels,

or sees.

You are the awareness

that experiences the body.

That experiences

all that appears

around you.

Into the awareness,

you rise

as the Oneness

that wishes to

experience itself.

Rise

into the Spiritual essence

of you.

All My Love Always, Keith

Into The Light

Into the Light

Into the light of the,

I am presence.

As I sit alone,

my thoughts fall away.

A  stillness comes over me

like a soft, warm blanket

wrapping me in a knowing

that I am far from alone.

A light of awareness

arises in me,

silent, unmoving,

yet ever present.

An awareness

of just being.

Step into the awareness

of what you are

a Spiritual being

that is having

a human experience.

Step into the light

of awareness

of the timelessness of it,

the eternal nature of it.

Into the light you are.

All My Love Always, Keith

Angels

Angels

Angels on high and right beside me,

lest I know,  I do not walk alone

for Angels are right beside me.

Subtle their influence

the feeling to turn here,

or to make that call.

We wish for a dramatic show

of their presence

yet receive subtle signs,

 a loving smile,

or a warm knowing

that comes over us.

Look around

and listen to them.

All around you, they are

if you are but aware

of the Angel's flowing subtle dance.

Weaving love in and through

your life with a sound or a glance,

be it birds chirping

or the soft beauty of a flower at dawn.

All My Love Always,  Keith

Within

Within

The One who resides within

is not separate from

 the One without,

know this.

Are not all candle flames

lit from the same flame

of that flame?

Are not peace, love, and joy

birthed from the same place?

The Love that you are.

The Love from the One

and of the One

that resides within

and without.

So very Loved you are,

Loved beyond measure.

All My Love Always, Keith

Native American Drums

Native American Drums

The fire crackles,

the flames lick the blue sky,

as the smoke drifts heavenward.

Into my awareness creep the sounds

of the Native American flute, and drums.

The fire crackles, the drums beat,

and the flute's notes drift through the air.

An appreciation arises in me for this land,

these Native American peoples and their ways.

The smoke drifts up into the blue,

the fire licks at the rising smoke,

as the fire crackles.

The rhythm of the flute and drums

in harmony with the fire,

and with those who play them,

in harmony with all who have come

and who will come again.

All My Love Always, Keith

Full Moon

Full Moon

The full moon is tugging

at the tides of Gaia,

shimmering across the waves,

tugging at the heart strings

of my being too.

Opening me to a greater understanding

of my connection with

The All That Is.

My humaneness reflects

a separateness

that is an illusion.

I feel I sense

this pull of the moon.

I feel I sense

this connection

with The All That Is.

And so it is.

All My Love Always, Keith

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

in the Love

of The All That Is.

Exhale

in Gratitude

for The All That Is.

Breathe in

the Divine gift

of life.

Live

in Love and Gratitude

for each gift received.

Go forth expressing

Love and Gratitude

for all you see.

Breathe in Love.

Exhale Gratitude.

All My Love Always, Keith

Sensory Journey

Sensory Journey

Close the eyes drifting in the Cosmos.

Floating in the sea of consciousness,

swept up in the feeling of it.

Music moves us;

music changes us

if we allow ourselves

to be swept

into another realm by it.

Feel it, sense it,

let if flow in and through your being.

Feel the notes, the tones,

the loving energy of it.

Sweeping you into a realm,

an otherworldly experience

of this thing

we call being human.

Soak it in, be one with it,

and let it take you

on a sensory journey.

Namaste

All My Love Always, Keith

     

Waves

Waves

Waves: washing up on a beach.

Sitting in the silent reverence

for the wonder of the rhythms of Gaia.

Waves: washing my cares away.

Waves: connecting me to mother earth.

Waves: washing into my soul

the reverence of the sea.

The timelessness of their flow

onto the beach

unlocks the timelessness

that resides in me. 

All My Love Always, Keith

Notes

Notes

Notes float out of the ethers.

Musical notes: drifting into and out of

your consciousness.

Drifting in and out of the stillness

that birthed them.

For without the stillness

of the silence

there would be

no differentiating them.

Is not music but a dance

with the stillness

 of the silence

it springs from and returns to?

A beautiful dance

in your awareness,

in your being.

Namaste.  

All My Love Always, Keith

Love Flows

Love Flows

Love Flows.

Love flows from within.

Love flows all around you.

Love flows in and through you.

Love flows in and through all things.

 The birds, the trees, the flowers,

everywhere you cast your gaze

love is flowing.

All My Love Always, Keith

Turn The Key

Turn The Key

Marry with

your Soul of the One

that resides in you.

Come with me.

Open yourself

to a new understanding

of what it means

to be a human.

There’s a link in you

to a far grander existence.

Turn the key,

unlock the mysteries

that lie within you.

Open yourself to expressing

your true nature.

 All My Love Always, Keith

Open The Door Again

Open The Door

Sisters and brothers my eyes turn within.

Within to the Divine source that lives in all.

The light that cannot be extinguished,

the light born of the Love of the One.

It resides in all for all are part of the One.

Look no further than inside

for that's where it resides.

This Divine Spark of the One of you

waits to be explored.

Take the journey,

the journey within your core.

There is much to learn there.

Open the door

to exploring the inner depths

of what you truly are.

Let The Ancients Speak

 I took a class about Inspirational Writing last week.

In preparation, we were told to

sit quietly and invite the Divine connection.

The instructor Minister Steven Upton picks a song

and asks us just to let the words flow from our pens

as we become aware of them in our minds.

Just write what comes.

Your mind is passive

this is the work of Spirit moving you,

bringing a message to you

and ultimately through you. 

He told us he had met a gentleman who was a linguist.

He was Dutch and named Hein Bratt. 

He studied all sorts of languages and told Steven

Sanskrit was the most complex language he'd ever studied.

Then he played a Sanskrit OM chant for us by Hein Bratt.

We knew our assignment:

get our minds quiet,

open to Spirit,

and let Spirit lead.

Here is what I wrote: 

The Ancients Speak

The Ancients Speak in ways

I sometimes do not understand.

That is not the point;

feeling is the point.

Feel the love and inspirations

of the tones, the inflections.

Take me for a walk into my core,

into my connection with The All That Is.

Move me to a depth of understanding

beyond words,

beyond letters.

The hum of life forever echoes

through all eternity.

May you become familiar

with its voice,

its subtleness,

its life.

All My Love Always, Keith

I Will Always Love You!

I Will Always Love You!

04.01.2017

I have had some profound direction of life changing things occur since

I lost my first wife Jane E. over six years ago.

I keep pursuing Spiritual growth.

That's where I was last week at a Spiritual Center in New Jersey

called The Journey Within

studying healing and inspirational speaking and writing.

During the inspirational writing segment,

Minister Steven Upton had us working with music.

He told us to sit at the ready with pen in hand

as we sat making the Divine connection.

Just to write what comes into your awareness.

The first session was enjoyable,

and the writing flowed from my pen.

It moved me even as I read it back

more about that in tomorrow's post.

He then said let's try this another style of music.

As it started, I thought I'm not going to like this one.

It was a Welsh mezzo-soprano singer, singing in Italian.

Not typically the style of music I would enjoy.

How quickly things changed.

At thirty-five seconds in I was overcome with this massive emotion of Love.

Though it was in Italian, I heard  "I will always love you!"

I felt as if Jane E. was standing there delivering a gift.

I opened my eyes to write and had to shut them immediately.

It felt as if the whole room lit up with her presence,

the magnitude of it hit me.

It went from some soft sobs and tears

to a massive flow of tears of joy,

and my body was heaving

from the sheer immenseness of her presence in the room.

It remained that way until the song ended and then she was gone too. 

At the break, another student approached me.

We had discussed my Spiritual awakening after Jane's death.

She just looked at me and told me

I felt your wife was standing right in front of you during that song.

Life is eternal my friends, love never dies.

This has been proven to me over and over again.

Life is eternal, and love never dies.

I will always love you says it all.

Here's the YouTube link to the song.
