Beloved Relatives
I just wanted to share this text...
The Invitation by Oriah
It doesn’t interest me
what you do for a living.
I want to know
what you ache for
and if you dare to dream
of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me
how old you are.
I want to know
if you will risk
looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn’t interest me
what planets are
squaring your moon...
I want to know
if you have touched
the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened
by life’s betrayals
or have become shriveled and closed
from fear of further pain.
I want to know
if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.
I want to know
if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you
to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us
to be careful
to be realistic
to remember the limitations
of being human.
It doesn’t interest me
if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear
the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day. And if you can source your own life
from its presence.
I want to know
if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
“Yes.”
It doesn’t interest me
to know where you live
or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.
It doesn’t interest me
who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.
It doesn’t interest me
where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know
what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.
I want to know
if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like
the company you keep
in the empty moments.

Teach what is right, that law is the LOVE, then when two hearts is united, we fight with intelligence. However if LOVE doesn't lead the way, then we fight to unite LOVE, two broken hearts, then we know that we are walking the truth path, the love to each other, the kind that lasts, over rolling hills in time, over the suns, and into the heart of the blue seas of every one. We are the Prophecy, the Rain upon the Land, so parched, it will need a Rainbow, to serve it home the right way and know where to land (the Rainbow always lands on the pot of gold, abundance, brotherhood)!

Blessings, Tania Southern Season!
Thank you for posting this text! It speaks volumes so profoundly, yet so gently. It is though provoking, yet "ass-kicking"! (sorry..didn't know how else to get my point out). If for no one else, I needed to hear this words this morning and this is something I am going to print out and hang on the wall, right in front of my face, over the computer monitor, to be reminded every day that my life is not about me! I am here to serve. I am here to walk a path for a greater purpose and it is high time I picked myself up and stopped whining about my feelings and how I feel hurt and betrayed and everything in between.
I have a beautiful journey to traverse and I have found some beautiful relatives in this group to encourage me! Thank you for these words that will be my inspiration each time I begin to falter. This text will be what picks me up on what is sometimes a lonely path that others don't understand or often judge.
I thank Creator that our paths have crossed!
Love,

Hi Beloved Relatives,
at your service...
Heart Walk, I wanted to share it earlier but something came in between and this morning out of the blue I had think about it again and just posted it :) Divine timing I guessss :)...
The text reminds me to value things that are not so valued in life. But are important to me. Yes it is a lonely path and yes misunderstood a lot! But still worth living for!!!
Thank you for your words, thank you for sharing...It reminds us all that we are NOT alone...
Grandfather, thank you for being you!
