This Silent Holding Prayer

Posted on December 11, 2016December 12, 2016 by Laurie's Notes

I found this

silent holding

prayer began to

reach far —

through the

wounded places —

into the tender,

most creative

magical spaces

in my heart

that couldn’t be

reached in other ways —

the ones that

carried on

so gently

through any kind

of storm.

  My little daughter needed lots of calming down this weekend. Sometimes we all do. 💙

Oh I love this poem and this video. I kept trying to get here yesterday but I’m here now. I love what he says about trying to find the self that is affected. Interesting. ❤

    AWE me too! I kept trying to find her and she wasn’t there. So I guess dropping is a good thing. Maybe we should fling then sing! 😉 That made ma laugh out loud! 😀

    It’s so interesting go me how writing and reading these little poem prayers is like a yoga meditation he mentioned in the video. I practiced this dropping in my art too. So interesting and subtle and magical. So I keep focusing here.. not going back into the story but reaching these parts in a gentle way. 💙
