Your life and my life flow into each other
as wave flows into wave,
as wave flows into wave,
and unless there is peace and joy and freedom for you,
there can be no real peace or joy or freedom for me.
To see reality — not as we expect it to be, but as it is —
is to see that unless we live for each other and
in and through each other,
we do not really live very satisfactorily;
that there can really be life only
where there is,
in just this sense, love.

Can you shriek that from the rooftops?
YES!! YES!!!
Amazing image
Deep, and beautiful. I come here, often, for peace. And you, Gypsywoman, have just delivered. Thank you for sharing this quote!
you know i can - and will - nancy!!! and put it on billboards!!! remember that tv commercial or show or whatever it was, where people leaned out their windows and shouted "i'm mad as hell and i'm not gonna take it anymore!" ?
well, see, the thing wrong with that was all the angry hostility being held by each person who then deflected it all back out to the universe - so - we could do a little intention experiment/exercise - and on a certain day at a certain time, all of us who blog together could open our doors/windows and shout out to the universe "i live for you and you live for me - we live in love" - or some variation - but you get my drift...hmmmmm....wonder what might happen?
hey miss marlene! ditto! ditto! ditto! and again - check out my response to nancy above - we ought to try it and see what would happen - well, other than some of us being arrested for disturbing the peace! :)
thanks gg - i've always loved the ocean - the sight of the water especially the waves - its sound and smell - yummm...i could go on and on - have a great day!
hi nevine! can't tell you how appreciated your words are - and especially of late! and listen, feel free to drop by over here any time - and just sit - and be - take your time! namaste' - j
I totally agree with Nevine. There's a special aura of peace here and when I need some deep meditation I pay a visit, absorbing the knowledge of your thoughts.
thank you shepoet for such words which are more than appreciated - we all need a bit of sanctuary/shelter from the storm and if you find even a tidbit of that here, i am truly pleased - namaste' - j
It's the gypsy world again, nomadic, yet filled with peace and tranquility!
oh, thank you, trish!
and you mentioned nomadic - just minutes ago my sister and i were talking about all the different places we have lived and all the unknowns about each of them in terms of our family's situation in each one - anyway - thank you for coming over - your post today was certainly mesmerizing!
Such beautiful words...
Have a nice day:)
Cyrus
thank you, cyrus - and you -
