POEMS: “It is I who must begin” by Vaclav Havel
It is I who must begin It is I who must begin. Once I begin, once I try — here and now, right where I am, not excusing myself by saying things would be easier elsewhere, without grand speeches and ostentatious gestures, but all the more persistently — to live in harmony with the “voice…
Spirituality from Daily Word: “Guidance” (espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria: “Guía”)
Guidance I am divinely guided. Guidance can be easy to find in the outer world. Maps and GPS technology can help me navigate my way just about anywhere.

MYSTICAL POEMS: “A Deeper Intelligence” – Amoda Maa

A quote from Neale Donald Walsch on trusting your inner knowing

I don’t know. Is it not “Consciousness”? I don’t know. Is it not “God”? I don’t know. Is it not the “Soul”?…
