Peace Part 2

I seek within the realms of Peace for he who is called the Prince of Peace. He answers my search with the voice of loving assurance saying; ‘I am with you always, even in the midst of anger and fright.’ He wraps me with the gentle carefulness within the bright garments of his heart light and speaks words of Peace to anxious soul. He said: “this moment I give you the Peace you knew in the beginning, when your only consciousness was that of oneness and light.”



Sheltered within the love of my brother and friend, I experience anew the boundless love of my Creator God. The cresting anger, which loomed so large as to almost overwhelm my world, begins its transformation before my opened mind. It reveals for my knowing the seat of the frustration which started its onslaught. The idea of oneness became distorted into a need for conformity. The warmth from Peace teaches me that to be joined it is not necessary to be alike. Being joined is to honor the bonds of love and give respect to the different. The differences speak not of separation, but of the beauty of the diversity which fills the wide universe.


The Peace of me rests within the secure spaces of the all and is undisturbed by the activities of that which is already formed. It was present at my birth, silencing the very first cry I uttered. It was present as I entered school for the very first time, calming the fears of leaving the familiar. Peace walked within the years of insecurity when I stood between the worlds of childhood and womanhood. It cradled my motions when I strove to adjust to places where my presence was not always welcomed. Peace was the monitor as I begun what I’ve come to call my path, and even now sheds it great light upon the steps I take.

Respite

  Respite a most wonderful word used to conjure magical places, peaceful settings and moments carrying memories to last a lifetime. I recently had a respite. I have been in hospice for about eight weeks now and while in their care, I've felt cared for and nurtured at the very least. Every staff member that interacted with me was an innate caregiver and i felt it. Thus, when I felt myself getting a little weak i could not figure out why. I said nothing to those around me. Then my nurse came for her weekly visit. She took one look at me, and you have declined, not you, you have to be around for Baseball's opening Day in the spring. Pulling up my pants which was beginning to slip, I replied without too much conviction," I'll be here in front of the television." She did not reply so i thought she'd let the matter go. She did her regular checkup, blood sugar, blood pressure, and temperature. Then she scribbled on her tablet, and all the other things she does on her...

What The MRI Revealed

Image
 On Friday May 27th, 2022, I went to the hospital to have an MRI done on my head, the reason for this procedure was to let my doctors and NLPs know what was happen within my scull with the errant cancer cells that had wandered into my head and was surgically removed in November of 2021. Before they put me into the machine, they had to inject me with a contrast for their own reasons. Well, the nurse in the MRI center could not get my vein to cooperate; so, I told him " I have a port". He was not trained on accessing ports, thus they had to get a certified port specialist. For over two hours they were unable to find such a person in the entire hospital. Finally, they found such a person working in the ICU and could be spared for the few minutes it takes to access my port and attach the necessary implement through which the contrast would flow into my body in order for the MRI to be properly done. When she could be spared and came to the MRI unit, she was an angel. I mean that l...

ODESSEY (Part 1)

Image
The very the beginning of this part of the odyssey happened in 2013 when I was diagnosed with colon cancer. The surgeon, Dr. Schertzerger, then removed half of my colon; said she had removed all of the cancer.  After a grueling course of chemotherapy all of it was gone, that was pronounced by the medical team who cared for me and measured my "levels" month after month, these levels showed no sign of any offence, I was on my merry way free from the offence. Then the following happened.   It was the usual Sunday Service at Unity North as I rose to do the Meditation when everyone in the congregation thought I was having a stroke. Anita and Sylvia rushed me to the Urgent Care afterwards; there they took one look at me and said this one belongs in emergency. There they threw up their hands and said call the neurosurgeon and book her a bed. The grand neurosurgeon, Dr. Benedict took scans, rushed me into surgery opened the right side of my scull and removed the offence. That off...
