Hold the Soul

Dreams are the container of the soul.




That is, they are the Holding Place of God.



So dream big, yes, because the bigger you dream



the more of God you let in!

Save the Turtles habitat, Heal the Sea

All of the sea turtles that venture into Gulf waters have already suffered because of commercial fishing and habitat loss. Endangered Kemp's ridleys, which are nesting on beaches in Mexico and Texas, have washed up by the dozens dead along Gulf beaches since the April 20 Deepwater Horizon rig explosion that has gushed up to 130 million gallons of oil into the sea.

“The consolation, the dignity, the joy of life are that discouragements and lapses, depressions and darknesses, come to one only as one stands without -— I mean without the luminous paradise of art. As soon as I really re-enter it -— cross the loved threshold -— stand in the high chamber, and the gardens divine —- the whole realm widens out again before me and around me —- the air of life fills my lungs —- the light of achievement flushes over all the place, and I believe, I see, I do.”

That was a quote from Henry James, renowned author and inspiration to me...
It spoke to me of a place to go inside of myself that creates the art, the peace, the love
and the healing.
I know as an artist, a person of healing, and one who is being healed, that believing in the whole realm that widens out before me and around me, is my personal choice to believe that the divine garden, the high chamber is "with in" me... This I know for sure...for me~! So, I say to you,  Go into the high place and seek that love threshold and know that your life is your art...you are the artist, gifted to this life and God is there as your power, sharing
strength to find the peace and joy within the dark parts.

Love to us all~ RM
