Reflections

Real Magic

January 22, 2016 Laurie's Notes

And so life became

a little more magical

with each tiny surrender

as I learned to trust —

as I remembered

the real magic within.

Reflections

Gently

January 19, 2016January 22, 2016 Laurie's Notes

And so I began

to trust

my own heart

to interpret

all that was unclear —

to allow the pieces

to fall back down

gently —

in a way I could understand.

The Unfolding

January 19, 2016January 19, 2016 Laurie's Notes

I came to the place

where there were

more questions

than answers.

And there I found

a sweetness

in the surrender

to the unfolding

of both answers

and mystery.

Prayers

Underneath

January 18, 2016January 18, 2016 Laurie's Notes

I hold this silent prayer

in my deepest heart

for you and for me —

that we may always remember

the love that we are

in our purest form —

underneath.

Amen.

Naturally

January 18, 2016January 18, 2016 Laurie's Notes

The time came

to turn around

and search for the one

in me

that could hold

all of the rest —

naturally.

Waiting for Words

Daring To Wait

January 17, 2016January 17, 2016 Laurie's Notes

My heart chose

to linger

a little longer,

to listen

a little more reverently —

to be moved

by tenderness —

daring always to wait

for the next step to appear

in that mysterious place

of in-between.

Waiting for Words

No Words

January 17, 2016January 17, 2016 Laurie's Notes

Though my heart knew

there were no words

to describe,

it found comfort

in the pausing,

in the listening

and waiting

to hold

just one whisper

a little closer —

in remembrance

of its own unspeakable love.

Prayers

Where Love Shines Most Brightly

January 16, 2016January 16, 2016 Laurie's Notes

Let my heart

be light —

that it may be carried

though the challenges

of this life

and set down gently

in the hidden,

secret places

where love shines

most brightly.

Amen.

Where Magic Never Left

January 15, 2016January 16, 2016 Laurie's Notes

One day I remembered

a simpler place

where thoughts

are gathered up

like flowers

and set down

without worry,

that unexplored place

of in-between,

where few were brave enough

to stay

and magic never left.

Reflections

Never Again

January 15, 2016January 15, 2016 Laurie's Notes

And in the healing,

there was grief —

for she vowed

to never again let go

of her own soul —

no matter how painful

the contrast became.
