It's so simple....just believe it!

January 7, 2013 Sunrise

11:34 AM Write…a story….Spirit led. Pen follows. About a woman who loved God and all His Creations. So yes she loved people but she was scared too. So she smiled at others, greeted others but didn’t really connect to many (if any) on a deeper level. Hell she didn’t even connect to herself on the deeper level. There’s something about this front window that magnifies things passing by in the corner of her eye – my eye/her eye/ I’m writing a story here. Who cares? Never mind. Just write a story others may or may not care to read. Closing eyes. Within. Hello from within. “She’s nice” anyone might say of her…”but I don’t really know her well. And she didn’t really know many well at all. It was always like that. But never mind, always was about to end for her in this way of being. She had no choice. Ready or NOT, things had to change – OR ELSE. No what’s why’s or how’s – just write it. Things had to change because there simply was no more going on in this way of being. She’d done it all… All the nothing-doing one can do to stay disconnected. It was like sticky tentacles surrounded her and she was going to get pulled right off of her feet – so she may as well look and choose which one it would be. She hoped, as she always did hope, TO KEEP CONTROL. Good luck with that one. Spirit had something big in store for her…she hoped. As she always did hope something big was in store for her. What if she spent all these years keeping control and waiting for that big thing to come along – only to find her destiny was to skip along merrily across the street or down the stream, whatever…just like anybody else. That she was not special at all. As she always did hope she was special. But secretly knew she probably was not special at all. Yet, maybe, just maybe, there was some one unique thing that she was especially created for. And today was going to be the day she would find it. This was going to be the day she would DO IT.

July 11 Choir Wednesday Sunrise

You can’t wake a person who is pretending to be asleep. ….Navajo proverb 6:29 AM Cross Creek Sunrise is relative. It doesn’t exist really, only from our unique perspective as we stand does it appear to rise about some horizon that only we can see; e.g., the sunrise right here is different than the sunrise just across the street. And so our day begins when we begin it. And I choose to begin mine with the sunrise that isn’t real really.

July 5 Sunrise-NOT at the Malibu Pier

This one heartbeat of a soul is creating a new life. This one heartbeat of a soul is free. This one heartbeat of a soul is living the life that God intended. …Rev. Safire Rose Spirit woke me up with a jolt at 5:00AM on the dot for the sunrise-NOT. One sole surfer sentry and me. The beach guys did an amazing job. Looked like they swept the place all night. Seems I don’t know how to just relax and release and tune in without judging . How to see the perfection in WHAT IS without leaping off to some story about it. Um wait isn’t this what I’m writing? Oh here’s my dilemma that’s not a dliemna. What on Earth can I pull from this rambling to post up for no one to read – until the words are there that call to THEM. Not for me to know. Them them them. It’s all about them. Hear Woody “80 percent of success is just showing up.”

4th of July Sunrise-Not at Point Dume

6:47AM Starbucks Trancas. Sunrise-not. Can’t detract from the beauty of Point Dume. Low low tide. Flock of pelicans flying low. Well I see I was high up on the bluffs. Took the long way around the soft sand path and met Pat for a 4th of July hug. Forf in July, as my daughter Jess used to say with a march in her step.

Today's Sunrise Blog

6:40AM Trancas Starbucks Sunrise-not. Captured at both the Pier and Point Dume. There was such a….(pen from Rosemary’s time share ran day) long line when I arrived, including Aaron Eckhart two people ahead of me (Edgewater Colorado Casino pen picked up off the floor at Agape. Huge wildfires there. Diane departs from Denver to Scandinavia later…Adventure Girl.) OK if I’m going to do a blog – John interruptus (I wish) (OK today is life in parentheses.) Why would I not do a blog? A perfect venue for these morning pages I’ve kept all to myself since 1997. Only – listen to this – blogging is different! Yeah so shut up and do it. Transcribe this whatever and let it jump over to the blog where it will jump. Let it LEAP. Been looking for this bridge for a long time.

June 28 Sunrise at Point Dume in Malibu

6:29AM Starbucks Trancas Made it right on time for emergence. Bright bright bright. Filled my eyes, filled my soul. Ooo and right now the sun crests this mountain at Trancas. Betting I just saw Pierce Brosnan jog by on PCH, near where I think he lives. Gonna have to pull down the shade in a minute, getting blinded by the light. Best of Sunrise project is complete. OK um, now to get it out – with Spirit's help. e-mail 1-2-3 today, 1-2-3 tomorrow until it flies.
