It finally hit me this morning…this event in Orlando had very little to do with ISIL…the man was an abuser and bi-polar…quite possibly gay beneath all of his hatred towards himself and others and he just happened to be Muslim…all this venom is fed by bogus religious dogma and the likes of the Donald Trumps and the right wing white ignoramus good ol' boys and girls….tears tears tears….wash away the hatred…….walk strong…..May All Beings be Free of Suffering…May All Beings be at Peace….May All Beings know their True Nature….'cuz this is all there is….
Joan Elena Goldberg says
“The tears I feel today
I’ll wait to shed tomorrow.
Though I’ll not sleep this night
Nor find surcease from sorrow.
My eyes must keep their sight:
I dare not be tear-blinded.
I must be free to talk
Not choked with grief, clear-minded.
My mouth cannot betray
The anguish that I know.
Yes, I’ll keep my tears til later:
But my grief will never go.”
― Anne McCaffrey, Dragonsinger

I saw you dancing last night on the roof
Of your house all alone
I felt your heart longing for the
Friend.
I saw you whirling
Beneath the soft bright rose
That hung from an invisible stem in
the sky,
So I began to change into my best clothes
In hopes of joining you
Even though
I live a thousand miles away.
And if You had spun like an immaculate sphere
Just two more times,
Then bowed again so sweetly to
The east,
You would have found God and me standing so near
And lifting you into our arms.
I saw you dancing last night near the roof
of this world.
Hafiz feels your soul in mine
Calling for our belove.d
Deb Taylor says
Amen again
