<p>You bet, I was taught a version of it.  Littered with enough gems of truth to make it easy to want to believe in.  A lie, what my husband delights in calling &#8220;black magic&#8221;.  Black because it&#8217;s dark and dark because it hides something.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s the only purpose for dark&#8230;to hide something.  Something we fear to see.</p>
<p>I looked.</p>
<p>There is a poem by Kahlil Gibran &#8220;On Love&#8221;, from his book &#8220;The Prophet&#8221;.   Here is how it reads, free of any polarity/duality ideas.</p>
<p>&#8220;On Love</p>
<p>When Love beckoned to me, I followed,<br />
Though Love&#8217;s ways were hard and steep.<br />
And when Love&#8217;s wings enfolded me, I yielded,<br />
Though the sword hidden among Love&#8217;s pinions wounded me.  When Love spoke to me, I believed,<br />
Though Love&#8217;s voice shattered my dreams, as the north wind laid waste my garden.<br />
Even as Love crowned me, so was I crucified.  Even as Love supported my growth, so did it provide a pruning.<br />
Even as Love ascended my heights, and caressed my tenderest branches,<br />
So Love descended to my roots and shook them from their clinging.   Like a sheave of corn I was gathered.<br />
I was threshed to make me naked.<br />
I was shifted free of my husks.<br />
I was ground to whiteness.<br />
And kneaded until I became pliant.<br />
And then I was assigned to Love&#8217;s fire, in order to become bread for God&#8217;s feast.<br />
All these things Love did to me, that I could come to know the secrets of my heart, and in that knowledge become a fragment of Life&#8217;s Heart.<br />
If in my fear I would have sought only Love&#8217;s peace and Love&#8217;s pleasure,<br />
Then it would have been better for me to keep covering my nakedness and pass out of Love&#8217;s thrashing floor.<br />
Into the season-less world where I would laugh but not all of my laughter,and weep, but not all of my tears.<br />
Love gives nothing but of itself and takes nothing but from itself.<br />
Love possess not nor will be possessed.  For Love is sufficient for Love.  When I Love I do not say: &#8220;God is in my heart&#8221;,<br />
but rather &#8220;I am in the heart of God&#8221;.<br />
I am not so foolish as to imagine I can direct Love&#8217;s course, being found willing, Love now directs my course.<br />
Love has no other desire then to fulfill itself.<br />
But since I love and have needs of desires, this is my desire,<br />
To be like a running brook that sings its melody into the darkness.<br />
I know the pain of too much tenderness.<br />
I am wounded by my understanding of Love;<br />
And bleed willingly and joyfully.<br />
I wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of Loving;<br />
I rest in the afternoon and melt in Love&#8217;s ecstasy<br />
I spend the evening at home in gratitude<br />
And then fall asleep calling for the beloved in my heart,  with a song of love on my lips.&#8221;</p>
<p>Love loves us even when we&#8217;re unlovable.</p>
<p>But it is only in facing how unlovable we are,</p>
<p>That we become Loving.</p>

<p>Both {{{<a title="Looking in the Mirror" href="http://cordieb.wordpress.com/">cordieb</a>}}} and {{{<a title="thoughtsandthings" href="http://tumel.wordpress.com/">tumel</a>}}} deserve WAY more in response to their inquiries and blessings then just the little blip I&#8217;ve managed to write so far.   I suppose it might <em>appear</em> like I have been taking a vacation, as in, exit stage left.  But that would be an appearance only.   I&#8217;m ~still~ very much *here*.</p>
<p>I have been a busy bee, bumbling mostly, just trying to keep up with the turned up/on intensity.  Woohoo!  Are we having FUN yet?</p>
<p>Gads, it doesn&#8217;t matter the outer circumstances that are triggering it&#8230;deep seated emotions are all coming up and out.  Sniffle, sniffle, &#8220;Pass the Puffs,&#8221;.</p>
<p>As far as I can tell right now, what&#8217;s happening is Freedom&#8217;s Ringing.  Our Soul/Spirits WILL be Free, one way or another.  Soul Healing has begun.  Like&#8230;.Michael Jackson&#8217;s Soul is now FREE from all the pain and anguish he was experiencing.   He was suffering intensely, especially mentally and emotionally.</p>
<p>Our World is shifting, from being outer directed to inner directed.  ALL outer circumstances and conditions right now are manifesting for ONE purpose and ONE purpose <em>only</em>: to motivate/inspire us to start turning inward.  For there is where we will all find the courage and strength we need to face going through all the changes.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s &#8216;coming in&#8217; is what is known as &#8220;POWER&#8221; on a Cosmic, Universal or Spiritual Level.  And it&#8217;s bringing down all our man made delusions of &#8220;power&#8221; and everything we&#8217;ve built on those delusions.</p>
<p>My husband and I were watching a movie the other night.  A thief had kidnapped a female US Marshal and both of them were stuffed inside the trunk of a car the thief&#8217;s cohort was driving.</p>
<p>&#8220;Why aren&#8217;t you struggling?  No screaming, no crying, you aren&#8217;t acting like you are afraid at all.  Why?&#8221;, the thief asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not afraid.  I know all I need do is sit back, relax and wait for you to screw up.  You&#8217;re a man.&#8221;, the US Marshal replied.</p>
<p>Then the thief exclaimed she sounded just like his ex-wife.</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s basically the  story behind the &#8220;Divine Feminine&#8221;: the &#8220;Holy Spirit&#8221; or the Third Aspect of the Divine Trinity:  Intelligent Activity.</p>
<p>Man, as in Mankind, screws up and in comes the Holy Spirit to the rescue.    And from Spirit&#8217;s perspective, there is NO such thing as any &#8220;order of difficulty&#8221;, for nothing is difficult.  *Now* we can &#8216;do&#8217; this the hard way, the old way or, we can choose to &#8216;do&#8217; this a new way,  the easy way.</p>
<p>We have reached the end of our bass ackward ways and it&#8217;s cause for celebration.  No longer will we be going bass ackwards, so now maybe we&#8217;ll be able to get someplace, <em>besides</em> over well trodden ground.</p>
<p>Real soon, within the next couple of weeks, I will be posting a &#8220;taste&#8221; of what is being assembled right now.</p>
<p>*drum roll*</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going live, hosting interactive classrooms.  I&#8217;m going to &#8220;channel&#8221;&#8230;.</p>
<p>~me~.</p>
<p>While streaming video, an interactive classroom will be set up for live interactive chat, discussion and questions.</p>
<p>Like I&#8217;ve been saying, there is a difference between a teacher and a preacher.  The main difference being group participation.</p>
<p>A website that is the platform for these live events is what I am building now.</p>
<p>Blessings &amp; Hugs,</p>
<p>Sue Ann</p>
