[FONT="Georgia"][COLOR="#458B74"]winding, circle, spiritual, glide, safe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gliding along the winding path in a circle of safety releasing my grip on my cares and opening up inside, dilated at the center of my soul. . . not a hole, a vessel a place of silence a vacancy reserved for God for spiritual communion, an inner sanctuary purified by the consuming fire of the Holy Spirit and what is left there. . . etched in the center of my soul, is: "I am with you, there is nothing to fear" 12/20/2008 2:21:36 PM [/COLOR][/FONT]  我爱希拉 |

[FONT="Arial Black"][COLOR="#CD9B1D"]meditate, solitude, soul-mail, release, receptive
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One foot in front of the other I walk and as I walk. . . I release each worldly care letting them lie where they fall behind me not turning back like Lot's wife going forward. As all is left behind I become more receptive with room in my heart and attention to spare. I arrive at the center and sit down to meditate in my mind I am calling: "come Holy Spirit" and my answer comes by soul-mail that light bulb in the head illuminating the message "You are not forsaken" and "Wherever you Go, God's Love goes with you" I smile, whisper Amen and rise from this quietude not solitude because even if there were not another body in the room GOD IS. And God. . . both stays and leaves with me. 11/17/2008 10:23:48 PM[/COLOR][/FONT] 我爱希拉 |

[FONT="Comic Sans MS"][COLOR="#8B3A3A"]labyrinth, aware, ahead, cloak, limb
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Perhaps the labyrinth is more than just a meditation tool maybe it is a snapshot of our lives. I'm not convinced we are ever moving either forward or backward but a winding path that sometimes takes us inward seeking center shedding the cloak and mask, the facade that the world in one way or another forces on us shedding the cares and stresses seeking quiet and rest and . . .inspiration; and once we have found it the path ahead takes us out to the world to make good use of the inspiration we received because only then do we make it our own, becoming fully aware of all the subtle meanings and nuances, and yes sometimes the inspiration that this life delivers requires us to go out on a limb to take risks that we can only take if we release some measure of comfort and security. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ stand, crawl, fall, rise, sway 12/17/2008 4:02:55 PM [/COLOR][/FONT] 我爱希拉 |

Hiya Amy! I you ever get a chance, check out "Gomorrah" by the Jerry Garcia Band! The last line is especially really cool... the first poem of this series made me think of it.
What Fatal Flowers of Darkness Bloom from Seeds of Light!

The Labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral in France, this labyrinth is the same design that is on the floor of our Church:

This Labyrinth is a simpler design than the Chartres one. the Chartres contains 11 circuits, and the one in this picture 7:
