God Is The Only Employer that Matters

When we're looking for a job in this society, or looking to build a career for ourselves, we often only think of the money and our survial instinct. It has been shown to me by a very wise man, and through my spiritual journeying, that we need to go even beyond wanting to love our jobs, the money, the benefits the companies may offer. In truth, we all have that "higher purpose." Our higher purpose is to connect, because, as scientists have discovered only recently in their labs, we are all joined in a web of energy and information. Our connection to the infinite, the source, All-That-Is, the I AM, God, or Goddess, must be our salve, our solution, our nourishment as we live out our physical experiences on this plane of existence. Instead of saying "what can you do to serve me, God/Universe?" or "I need a job, a career" I have learned that I need to ask "How can I serve You?" We need to say "Send me the people who may need my help so that I may be of benefit to them. Direct me where to go so that they will be able to find me and allow me to minister to them." It is in recognizing that we are here to serve any and all people, we see that our higher purpose is to please the one employer that matters most, the Creator.

I Let Go - Song (2007)

I Let Go

I let go the phantom love we witnessed
The secrets that I told to keep you here
The joy of making love to you
The first time we kissed
Let it go, I let it go

You weren't mine to keep in the beginning
You belonged to the world and I couldn't see
That there was no way that I'd be winning
The race to free you so you could stay with me

I let go the phantom love we witnessed
The secrets that I told to keep you here
The joy of making love to you
The first time we kissed
Let it go, I let it go

I owned a piece of you, just a little something
A tatter of the soul that I once knew
I don't know much but I know one thing
Your memory will linger my whole life through

You were an angel, an apparition
My fantasy, my great petition
I needed more than just your shadow
I needed reality, had to stop the wishing

I Know That I Can Shine For You - poem (2009)

I Know That I Can Shine For You

I walked alone, always hiding from your light
I was too ashamed to show you who I've been
There were too many times when I took to flight
I couldn't see you had come and washed away my sin

And I know that I can shine for you
Although I might be full of dust
This heart can learn to live its prayer
I feel this time I know what to do
As I clean off all of the rust
I can show you that I still can care

Played the music slow so I could hear your key
And waited for me, till I learned all the steps
Opened up these sightless eyes to harmony
I felt so much joy inside that I nearly wept

And I know that I can shine for you
Although I might be full of dust
This heart can learn to live its prayer
I feel this time I know what to do
As I clean off all of the rust
I can show you that I still can care

One day when someone's footsteps fell behind me
I knew they were the ones I'd waited for
A promise filled my mouth that then would bind me
I never truly learned that love was so much more

******* I wrote this for someone very very special to me, the man I love. ************************
