Down the Throat of the Speckly Iris

The Most High Awareness is my Author and Creator, my Home and my
Guide. I am in constant, conscious contact with this inward Presence.
For I completely trust Infinite Intelligence, Love and Goodness will only
lead me into safety, fulfillment and joy. My faith in my Guide is constantly
confirmed by my experience. There is no need for "believing in" when
knowing has returned. I am so grateful for a living trust in my Companion
and Source. And so it is.

Her Response to "Madam, I'm Adam."

Portland International Rose Garden: 2010

Infinite Mind is the Mother-Father of all Life, being the Living Creator.
I am created a co-creator with and in this Mind. My thought and feeling
are acted upon by the Law of Life: like produces like. And I am always
free to choose my thoughts and feelings. I am sovereign in my own life.
I am in command of my own experience. I know it is by this Law and
my freedom to choose that I free myself. I declare my freedom now.
For divine support I am so grateful. And so it is.

White Lupine

From softness and gentleness I view my world, for Love is my constant
viewpoint. From this worldview I see safety, peace and a beautiful
livingness. I will always see my world as I think and feel myself to be.
So I come back to the Truth and from this highest awareness I see only
good. The world seen is in the seer, whatever is really going on "out
there." Coming from Truth, I inevitably see accurately. I am thankful this
Truth is my unlosable Identity, immune to fantasy or pretense,
always here. And so it is.

Light Orange Icelandic Poppy

The Creative Spark is intrinsic to my being and Identity. My living is poetry,
my loving, symphonic. My seeing is Beauty's looking and my hearing is
Harmony's rejoicing. For my life is a canvas, my thought and feeling the
brush and the colors. What am I composing today? What masterwork
is seeking birth by means of me? I listen within. I open to the Cosmic
Spark. I allow this pure Light to fill my mind and the Infinite Goodness
expresses Itself anew today. For this creativity I am so grateful.
And so it is.

Dahlia Subtle Yellow with Lavender Tips

My inward growing is inevitable, beautiful, ongoing. For I am growing
back Home. My development is really the reclaiming of What I already Am.
This growing, like all else that lives, has a Divine Idea at its heart. This Idea
unfolds every growth process perfectly, yet each is also unique. Every
Divine Idea has within it all that is necessary for a perfect unfoldment
at every stage. In the final analysis, I need do nothing, though today
I may feel it is all up to me. I am grateful to know my Homecoming
is as certain as God. And so it is.

Always Perfect

Portland International Rose Garden

Perfection created me exactly like Itself.
I dwell at the center of Limitless Perfection always.
My circumstances are perfect. People are perfect.
I am perfect right now. I accept the perfection of Life.
Nothing is missing. Nothing is lacking or out of place.
I feel so grateful for perfections within Perfection.
All is well. And so it is.

Allium Magenta

I am a radiance of peace into my world, of joy and of love. For I am an
emanence of the Limitless Peace, Joy and Love that is Infinite Mind.
I really need do nothing but be What I am and only Good will come
from and return to me, reflected in all I see. The sun is the symbol for
this divine Identity. The sun sees no shadows, only its own light
reflected back to itself. More steadfast than Old Sol is my real Self
for Its Light is eternal. Humbly I welcome standing in the Place of
this Self I am now. And so it is.

Crowded Red Hydrangea Blooms

Paradoxically I am both the same as everyone else, and unique. I am
made of the same Mind as all others, yet this Mind expresses Itself
uniquely in Its every creation. I am a free-thinking individual and capable
of thinking on my own. I build my own mentality. This need not be a
barrier to connecting with and relating to all others. For we are a
shared Self together with One Source, a complete Unity. Gratefully,
I am in you, you in me, together one with the One, thanks to the
continuousness of Infinite Mind. And so it is.

Verbascum

For every hurt there is a forgiveness that heals, no matter the hurt,
emotional or physical. My job is to release my idea of what that
forgiveness may look like, turn to the Voice for Truth in my own mind,
and become receptive, yielding, open. It's OK to nurse the hurt until I
am ready for it to be healed. But why prolong my suffering when the
Answer is completely available? My suffering is not my safety. I admit
I don't know how to heal this myself, so I turn within to the unfailing
Love for my Guidance. I am willing to heal now. And so it is.

Clematis Blue Among Unfolding Whites

Deep within my own mind I am forever in contact with the Source of my
being, life, Self. My mind is an extension of this Limitless Mind as is all else
that I am. I need only get quiet, turn within my mind and listen to the
Silence. And I know, again, my Source. I know, again, my Self. Repeating
this practice returns my mind over time to its natural state and Self-
awareness. Getting my Self right, I get everything right. Life becomes
natural and safe, fun and wonderful. I love turning to my Internal
Reference Point, and know, again, all is well. I am grateful. And so it is.

Mercy

Portland International Rose Garden

Mercy springs from love. Retribution never follows from love.
"I require mercy, not sacrifice." I am merciful to myself now.
I release myself from my old demand for sacrifice.
I treat myself with love, respecting the Life that is living me.
Merciful to myself, I must bring mercy to all people.
I am so grateful for the Compassion that makes mercy
make sense. And so it is.

Pocketbook Flowers

Happiness is my natural state. I love feeling good.
Feeling good is feeling God. God's mood is One: Good!
Resonating to Divine Mind, I feel good also.
Goodness must come to me
as I feel the Goodness that I am.
I am so grateful. And so it is.

White Clematis

So fast does this world of form and phemonenon change. Yet I come
from Formlessness, Changelessness, Eternality. I transcend all physical
experience. My purity is constant, my freshness continuous, my beauty
resplendant. Nor can my body hide my Self nor my Source. All sense of
change as threatening is now dissolved from my mind. I stay at home
with the Life living me always. I am grateful for this invulnerability.
And so it is.

Love Never Ending

Portland International Rose Garden

I came from the Heart of Love, a creation of Love.
I bring this Heart and all It contains to everyone I meet.
Love is my constant motivating power, the vitality of my life.
I am love and love is all I see. I dwell in a Universe of Love,
clear-eyed, free from all sentimentality.
I am so grateful. And so it is.

Dahlia Fractals

Limitlessness also exists in every tiny expression of Beauty, Order
and Intelligence. For Infinity is omnipresent. Infinite Mind is infinitely
present at every point within the Totality that It is. For Infinity is
illimitable, irrepressible, undauntable. Nothing is more concentrated.
Nothing is more full. Pregnant with all possibilities this Source is
forever expressing Its Joy, Truth, Peace. I am so grateful to be
intrinsic to this limitless Wholeness. And so it is.

Delphinium: A Glory of Blue and Purple

True is the Real Self I am. Not only a creation of Truth but forever in
perfect fidelity with that Truth. My Self is willed by God. What arrogance
to think I have altered the Unalterable! I am still in complete integrity
with the Mind that created me. I am safe. All are safe. Nothing has
changed. No harm done. I rest the mind that I am in its Source and
I am refreshed with the Truth of my being. I am grateful all is well - still.
And so it is.

Frog's Eye View of Emerging Lily Pads

Life! Vitality! Energy! I am a divine expression of Life.
I am irrepressible life! I enjoy this Flow of Life through me.
I watch this Life doing through me and for me.
I am grateful! And so it is.

Black with Blushes

Houston Museum of Natural History

Butterfly Dome: 2010

From egg to crawling, gorging worm to deep rest within a chrysalis,
insides liquified and wholly reorganized, the butterfly symbolizes my
transformation. The Divine Idea is inherent and has within it everything
necessary for my perfect and complete unfoldment. Wherever I am on
my journey to my Source, I am right on time and right on target. And it
only gets better. I willingly see this with gratitude now. And so it is.

Awakening

Portland International Rose Garden

I waken to Truth today. I wake up to Life!
I know and understand what I am.
I understand and apply the way Mind works.
I enter into a new day of joy and love, abundance
and givingness. I am here for Life! Life is always for me.
I love my life. I love myself. I love all people now.
Happy and grateful I know it is so.

White Crocus

I open to joy. I open to freedom. I open to peace.
Life is mine to live and to express. I accept this joy.
I send out my best to all my world. I allow the fullness
of my Source to be revealed though me today.
Excellence is fun as well as congruent with Truth.
I am very grateful. And so it is.

Spotted Iris

Infinity is a forever Open System. Having no boundaries this System
cannot degrade. Closed systems experience entropy, increasing
disorder. Open systems exhibit greater order and complexity.
This universe is embedded in a Limitless Openness, hence the
complexity of physical life, the ordered ecology of this planet.
I also am embedded in the Infinite - and the Infinite is embedded
in me. For constantly evolving possibilities, growth and
development I am deeply grateful. And so it is.



Yellow Lily, Pink Pistil

Life: symmetrical yet not exact. Life explores the expression of
all combinations and possibilities. Life's dynamism expresses as
off-center, inexact, beautiful, balanced. I, too, am an expression
of the One Life expressing as all things. Only I, like Life, am created
a creator. I also express Life's possibilities through my work and play,
my thought and feeling. Externally or internally I am always
expressing some possibility in the Life that is living me. I am
humbly grateful. And so it is.

Purple Blue Iris

I choose Life. I choose this life. Why resist what is? Why suffer needlessly?
Why not choose what is and go from there? Why not demonstrate
strength and sanity? These are identical questions. I have more
strength and wisdom than I think. Yet I am constantly capable
of demonstrating these hidden powers. I inform myself about
myself. I accept feedback from Life. I see, again, what I am. For
being more than I thought I am very grateful. And so it is.

Visibility is Good
Portland International Rose Garden

I came from the Unseen to make visible the Love of God.
I am that Love, along with everyone else. My love is acceptable.
My love is accepted. I accept the love of others. My life is Love's visibility.
I am grateful to show up today, perfectly safe, as usual.
And so it is.

Frilly Daisy Sisters

I am together with the Whole of Life.
I love and enjoy my Limitless Beingness.
I feel my complete control of my every thought,
feeling and experience. I know this Power is safe,
healing, nurturing, vitalizing. Life is so very good.
I am deeply grateful. And so it is.

Orange Glory
Portland International Rose Garden

My natural awareness of love warms my heart and soul.
The love I feel warms all my relationships with people.
Love in my heart warms my relationship with myself.
I love the beingness that I am. I love the Source of all that I am.
I am so grateful. My life is so beautiful. And so it is.

A Rose by Any Other Name

Portland International Rose Garden

No matter what I have called myself, I am still as God created me.
No matter what I have identified with, I am still as God created me.
No matter what I accused myself of, I am still as God created me.
I have no jurisdiction over my identity, since I did not create myself.
Humbly I let go of my ideas of myself now. Gratefully
I now accept Divine Mind's knowing of what I am.
In quiet, I remember happiness is here. And so it is.

Vine Maple Leaves

Healing Life flows through my every thought, feeling,
vein and artery. I am alive with the One Life, along with everything else.
I rest in Life's Vitality. I rejoice in Life's Renewal.
I begin again a new year, a new day. All is well.
I am so grateful. And so it is.

Calla Close Up

Though I find myself in a world of forms and phenomena, some core
reality of my being remains transcendent; involved yet unattached. This
is where my true Identity resides. I am free to experience all I can yet
remain free of all I experience. In this Identity is my transcendent safety,
health, happiness, prosperity, beingness. Keeping my attention on this
beyond-this-world awareness draws into my experience the transcendent:
harmony, peace, synchronicity, love. I live a different life from a different
inner space for which I am humbly grateful. And so it is.
