bounce. a spontaneous poem by (me!) sandra, tvgp
b I ou c r u
o g a d [inside]
n n
(me!) mind. cerebral hyperlinks all the time. forward
drawkcab. cross the street
image. memory. meet.
I remember this and that and this
one word at least -like "kiss"
and what I barely, kinda, maybe know
my external memory blog; my green light go
how much is in there? how much to come?
how much to skip? what pace to run?
when to stop and remember well
the view from heaven; glimpse of hell
what factor time has in my mind?
zip files, photos, when words are blind
many senses; all engaged -one key word unlocks the page
open heart and mind on stage
you are now inside.
welcome.
"would you like a cup of tea?"
no talking required to get to know (me!)
and before you speak a word there's clues
in every vibe that makes up you.
and in the space
between two persons
it is not invisible to the spirit; the curtain
spirit; mind; heart connect
make a memory; time corrects
and every memory made in time
dots to dots; until ……__________ a line.
no single file. all squished together. reorganize
non from fiction; facts from lies... /or was it just exaggerated?
or was it downplayed? was it this year or that?
learn to surf the memory as it waves
or your stuck in your mind all night all day
cerebral hyperlinks -ignore? engage?
thanksgiving feast on the table today.
-cast cares and pray.

Spiritual accounting as interpreted by (me!) sandra, tvgp
We are all familiar with real world bank industry accounting; yes
the formula goes like this:
the more money you have; the more they give you
the less money you have; the more they take away.
***
spiritual accounting then, as experienced and witnessed and understood by me
goes like this:
the more sins (quantity/severity) you need forgiveness for
the greater His mercy will be
the forgiven sinners amount of (level of) appreciation/gratitude directly correlates to the
amount of mercy accepted/understood/received
that speaks to sin, sincere repentance and forgiveness, and!
same is true of suffering, healing and peace
the greater you have suffered
the more healing you require
the more healing you require the more you will receive
the healed persons amount (level of) appreciation/gratitude directly correlates to the
amount of peace experienced/understood/received.
that is all to say, that the reverse is also true:
if you don't need much in the areas of forgiveness and/or healing; are you awake enough to see/appreciate the blessing?
and that is all to explain:
why I am deeply and perpetually grateful.
in Jesus name,
hallelujah & amen
***
caveat: we have a story in the bible of 10 people cured... but only 1 of the 10 (9?) returning to say "thank you!"
-there are lessons tucked in those passages about who is, and who is not, awake to their blessings
in the spiritual accounting books, there are separate columns
unconscious/unaware/asleep
entitled/ungrateful/selfish
awake/appreciative/generous
***
amen.

The Heart Seen photos "thank you!" from (me!) sandra, tvgp
in rocks and the heart seen in ice cream x2! that dessert is blessed squidmann… made with love. I spied hearts in the peppers in the employee break room.. on the sidewalk, in a parking lot..on a tree in capitola /which my sexy said looks like a baboons butt.. - carla in her yard, carole at the beach, peg in a pothole.. and more to come once photos are uploaded.. LOVE how this collection keeps growing! xoxo so gratefuland reminder: the heart seen collection is only of heart shapes not made with human intention.. but I still appreciate hearts found/shared that were made intentionally.. so a few additions to that collection also:
*** *** *** *** *** ***
carole walked past this heart in bricks many times, but only noticed it after making other heart seen contributions.. so her eyes have been opened.. and her daughter too -starting to see/notice hearts
great make up by squidmann/spikes cousin..
and, heart seen in the shadow of the old oak tree
