If in some life before now
We craved the other’s love
Like freedom in the captive’s mind
I suppose we were kept at bay…
Perhaps we or the cosmos knew
The pain that would ensue
A binding such as ours.
So it would be saved
For the time when the lessons
Could be best learned.
I imagine that is intense desire
Undeniable forces avoided for the cost
And indulged finally in the right lifetime
I imagine any soul who could wait
Any love that could endure
Could not be pulled apart now
Could not be divided
Such a state is a fusion of conscious thought
When body becomes translucent
And the mind, spirit and heart are what
Drives desire.
Is this you and me?
Possibly.
If in some life before now
We craved the other’s love
Like freedom in the captive’s mind
I suppose we were kept at bay…
But now?
Life still keeps us at bay
Despite our years together
And lessons learned
I imagine this is yearning
Of a most painful type
I imagine this is the heart’s labyrinth
When body becomes translucent
And the mind, spirit and heart are what
Drives desire.
Is this you and me?
Possibly.

In today’s secular environment the two worlds of science and spirituality are alien worlds, distinguished primarily by a deep-seated antagonism in which the principles of spirituality and the pragmatism of modern science exist face to face in a peren
Because we have an opportunity to choose our attitude and focus our intentions in the present moment, the world and our own personal lives are a reflection of our thoughts. It is our 360 degree review on how we think. Put simply, our job is to fully
