Perspective With faith and gratitude, I achieve spiritual perspective. An artist creates depth in a painting by using visual perspective, making objects smaller so they will appear more distant. On the canvas of my life, difficult circumstances sometimes loom large in the foreground. Yet when I put them in perspective, their influence diminishes. I achieve…

Spirituality from Daily Word: “Harmony” (Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “Armonía”)
Harmony Today I do my part to create harmony and peace. Today I do my part to bring peace and harmony to my corner of the world. People around me may be angry and argumentative, but I remain centered in the deep peace of my soul, which helps me see God in others too….
A quote from John O’Donohue about stress
“We rush through our days in such stress and intensity, as if we were here to stay and the serious project of the world depended on us. We worry and grow anxious; we magnify trivia until they become important enough to control our lives. Yet all the time, we have forgotten that we are…
MYSTICAL POEMS: “Wake up lovers” by Rumi
“Wake up lovers, it is time to start the journey! We have seen enough of this world, it is time to see another. These two gardens may be beautiful but let us pass beyond them and go to the Gardener. Let us kiss the ground and flow like a river towards the ocean. Let us…
SPIRITUAL POEMS: “The Question” by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
“The Question” Beside us in our seeking after pleasures, Through all our restless striving after fame, Thorough all our search for worldly gains and treasures There walketh one whom no man likes to name. Silent he follows, veiled of form and feature, Indifferent if we sorrow or rejoice, Yet that day comes when every living…

SPIRITUAL POEMS: “The message” by Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
“The message” I have not the gift of vision, I have not the psychic ear, And the realms that are called Elysian I neither see nor hear; Yet oft when the shadows darken And the daylight hides its face, The soul of me seems to hearken For the truths that speak through space. They speak…
LONG POEMS: “The tree in me” by Trina Graves
My roots stem from my family
Deeply embedded in Mother Earth
Strongly supporting my presence
That fed my earlier self-worth.
My roots are also a mighty link
Spirituality from Daily Word: “Transformation” (Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “Transformación”)
Transformation I am a beacon of light in this world! If I want to change my life, to create new meaning and purpose, I must open my mind to transformative thoughts. I must be open and willing to make adjustments to what I think, say, and do as I move ever onward toward realizing…
Spirituality from Daily Word: “Perspective” (Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “Perspectiva”)
Perspective My answers are revealed from a higher, spiritual perspective. When I rise into spiritual understanding, I gain a different perspective. From a lower, limited viewpoint, it may seem I do not know how to solve a problem. But from a higher point of view, I can always see a way around it. I need…
