-- ON THE HORIZON – John Herlihy On the horizon of the body lies the mind On the horizon of the mind lies darkness On the horizon of darkness lies mystery On the horizon of mystery lies the unseen On the horizon of the unseen lies the unknown On the horizon of the unknown lies faith On the horizon of our faith lies belief On the horizon of belief lies a light On the horizon of light lies truth On the horizon of truth lies reality On the horizon of reality lies a heart In this heart, no horizon, only Unity - - - - - - Copyright © John Herlihy Saturday 16 July 2022

OH JOHN, I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOUR HEART AND OTHERS LIKE YOURS THAT'S 'READY' FOR UNITY. BUT AS FOR SO MANY OTHERS...I BEG TO DIFFER. I MEAN, THAT HEART WHICH THE WORD DOES SO SORELY WARN US ABOUT, CARRIES SO MUCH 'STUFF' WHICH HAS TO BE CLEANSED AND SOFTENED. SO I WOULD SAY...ON THE HORIZON OF MANY A HEART LIES THE HOPE OF...UNITY, THAT PEEKS, EVERY NOW AND THEN(SMILE). BEAUTIFUL AND ENJOYED! LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

The many ways to understand the word "horizon" are explored with the insight of molecular to the grand scheme of perception. Such a gift to arrange words in such a way that even the most resistant are disarmed. Wonderful small journey of the soul here.
