CONSENSUS

(c) 2011 Howard McQueen

 

Don't try to convince us,

don't even condense the message into sound bytes.

Stop all this putting lipstick on the pig.

 

Let us, together,

speak of our own shared values,

our heritage,

our legacy

and what we most desire to consciously

manifest - together.

We are trained and indoctrinated

to judge,

rather than just observe

and witness

and be in awe

of this magnificent existence.

FLOWING TO SOURCE

(C) 2011 Howard McQueen

 

This creek that constantly flows,

whispering its language

 that also smooths sharp stones.

 

The language of perpetual flow,

around obstacles and impediments,

joining other flows,

making the long journey back

to the merging with Source.

ACCESSING THE SILENCE

(c) 2011 Howard McQueen

 

Before any action,

before any thought,

the Stillness ... exists.

 

Accessible to all,

to dip your ladle,

to stir your pot

or

to let it all come to rest

 and discover the clarity

 contained in the Stillness.

 

The Stillness remains completely unchanged

 however much your own personal pot

 may boil over

 or become agitated and…

MASTERING YOUR DREAMING

From the Don Miguel Ruiz Daily Archives 

 

Today use your awareness to see how this message is true in your life:

 

We don't need to escape from life; we don't need to deny our own nature. What we need is complete awareness and self-acceptance. We need to learn to make our own choices and finally control our will from the inside. That is what makes us a…

ENCOURAGING CONVERSATION



© 2011 Howard McQueen

 

It is when people stop talking and start plotting,

that we begin to feel we might become harmed,

that we then consider the option of taking up arms.

 

Why is it we give up keeping conversation alive,

and are willing instead, to let parts inside shrivel or fry,

and on the outside, we let our sons and daughters die?

 

What could be more important

than encouraging our voices…
