Sainthood
I kid you not.. out of the window.. a band started to play Proud Mary as I uploaded.. now tell me if life is not pure unadulterated.. folly.. wow.
I did not know of a band playing nor did I know their playlist..
Sainthood belongs to the following groups:
ABSTRACT DIGITAL ART AND WRITING, Vibration in Art and Verse - VAVoom! and Writing: Persuing HappinessIt could happen now
Out of the eons that let go absolutely
I could find the glaring tabernacle that
Suits my disposition
It could be a place where I am
Revered
Reversed
and
Reinvented
I could have a crown of glory
Situated
On my head
I would sit in a non-judgmental way
Judging only me
‘Not to judge’
I would say without rancor
Or misinformation
“You do it best”
“Your are the winner, in this moment
Trust me you are”
Because here in this summer sight
There is time to play it all out
To contemplate your needs.
So today you ask;
“I need you to see me”
And so I say;
“I see you as
The Best!”
You walk away with a shining I did not
Lend you.
You walk away with a knowing I did not
Send you
I sit now in the sun and I look for that part
Of my missing self..
The part that gleans a cockeyed smile
That asks that I look to the Folly for all
My truths
And it is thus;
The folly is non committed and fluid and says
Anything my darling ‘queen of your own mind’
Is possible.
Tears steam down my face and I say
Tell me this is so
Make me a believer!
I look around and my golden chambers are empty
The sound of the answer is the echo in my own heart
The Right chamber, is fluttering…
It wants to sing
But then I think I am dying
“No No”.. I hear
It is the echo singing
(sounds like Proud Mary)
Remember Remember…
This is all folly
Beyond there is only the space between
Breaths
The breathing in and the breathing out
Where the resistance no longer exists/
You no longer exist
Except to say
you become
Acceptance
The letters are now your dreamtime.
And then
My tears become crystal balls
And inside them I see the mistake of my perception
Made TRUTH
But even there
The echo calls
Lives the Sainthood
Of
Folly.

To choose beyond the sometimes limited view of our ‘moments’ in life does take a stronger belief in being in the flow of our journey – whatever that may bring – and to accept this and know we are loved by the acceptance we have of ourselves which will flourish in the connections life has for us and is bringing to us…..That my darling woman is what I take from the words you have written here….Thank you I needed your love today…this morning…what a gift.XXXXXXXXXXXX
linaji replied
I keep following your comments with tears.. you are indeed my gift sweet Karen Sue.. I almost see you in your jammies and your bed and your computer.. I feel connected with you right on this spot.. and you are right.. this is a world of much amazement and for me to feel this way seems so ill suited for my journey .. but I do feel sometimes.. ‘Am I talking myself into all this ‘positive stuff’? am I off a bit and what do I expect?’ ‘What is in this for ME??’ for Gods sake I keep my nose to the ever loven fargen ‘look for the next best thought’ grind stone and most of the time ‘I feel good’.. but the depths sometimes, of pure lost.. lost ‘ness’.. like I am in the middle of a forest that I have been hiking on.. and am thinking too much of other things beside the direction I am going in.. taking turns I am not aware of.. then.. Fuck..
(I have had this happen) you look around and you know you are so so lost. You get kinda scared and you are alone. your instincts are hightened and you feel at a loss.. where do I go now?
that is the feeling today.. perhaps because of the body work all my doubts spring forth and I being at a loss with strong doubt hardly happens any more.. it is not much a part of my make up. But when it comes it is painful and I admit the word, ‘fear’ in some essence does come to mind.
like I am not ever really getting the point.. as to wtf anyway..wtf are you doing LINA?
≈
So it is from here that I begin again to know that all’s I need do is stick it out.. cause what I remember what always happens is.. ‘my life gets better’
Any way.. sorry I just wanted to talk.. xxxx

Where the resistance no longer exists…........ this is very powerful for me today Lina. I have been doing some work with that exact thing today. Resistance born of fear and some misconcieved notion that I’m not good enough. But in my work today with that, I decided to just plunge on in and see what happens. Thank you for once again, synchronistically reinforcing what I’m trying to learn! :o) Absolutely fantastic writing!!!
linaji replied

Matt Penfold
The “sainthood of folly”, what a wonderful concept Lina, even the “beatification bullshit” would be hard for the Devil’s advocate to knock back at times. I know you were sad and feeling down but this just seems so light and matter of fact that have to smile :-) Wonderful writing.
linaji replied
Hi Matt.. I hope you and KS are having fun. You know this piece is one of my favs Matt.. I like your take on the Devils Advocate cause the truth of the matter is the Devils Advocate is someone else and not me. I am feeling such a connection to knowing.. by how I feel rather than how I think.. feeling transends.even thought… it is what takes me to ALL THAT IS.. but then.. thought comes in.. followed by all the rest.. the interpertation of our time and place and all the side diddys of perception come running to see too.. and then we got the dialog and then. .and then… so .. safe to say.. I either feel good or I don’t. and then when I don’t. ... the ‘folly’ has become to great for even me to manage.. that is the signal.. let the f*#@ Go. xxx
jennaloke
luv this

linaji replied
I just took my first sip of tea for the day.. and what a day.. your comment here gave me chills and joy.. thanks Matt!!

to be Revered, Reversed and Reinvented . . . how wonderful that would be. You express such profound observations without heaviness, without self-importance. This is a really wonderful piece of writing.
