~words which got me through~

 

~simple solutions to problems I never had ~

 

~nothing real can be threatened~nothing unreal exists~a course in miracles

~love in all its subtleties is nothing more and nothing less than the more or less direct trace marked upon the heart of the element by the psychical convergence of the universe upon itself~teillard de chardin

~it was whlie gliding through these latter waters that one serene and moonlight night, when all the waves rolled by like scrolls of silver; and, by their soft suffusing seethings, made what seemed a silvery silence, not a solitude; on such a silent night a silvery jet was seen far in advance of the bubbles at the bow. Lit up by the moon it looked celestial; seemed some plumed and glittering god uprising from the sea.~ hermann melville

~heaven is here~there is no other place, heaven is now~there is no other time~a course in miracles~

~when your body and your ego and your dreams have gone,you will know that you will last forever.perhaps you think this is accomplished through death, but nothing is accomplished through death, because death is nothing.everything is accomplished through life, and life is of the mind and in the mind ~acim

~how can you find joy in a joyless place except by realizing you are not there :--))  acim ~

~how can you ,who are so holy suffer? all your past except its beauty is gone,and nothing is left but a blessing.I have saved all your kindnesses and every loving thought you ever had, and purified them of all the errors which hid their light, and kept them for you in their own perfect radiance. they are beyond destruction and beyond guilt ~a course in miracles ~

~no man is an island entire of itself. everyman is a piece of the continent~a part of the main~if a clod be washed away by the sea, europe is the less...anyone's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind...therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee....

1624 john donne

 

~for in that sleep of death what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil~ willy nilly
