The Undoable

The Undoable

We all have those moments when we feel like
God cast us in mission impossible.
it is so easy to feel overwhelmed,
perhaps even paralyzed by the
mission before us.
I all too vividly remember moments
I felt so overwhelmed
all I wanted to do is cry.
It is in those moments I find myself
traveling back in time
and thinking about my ancestors,
the ones who adopted me,
and the attitude with which they began their life
in a new country.
Their legacy taught me the importance
of immigrating to new lands,
to new missions in life
and to new understandings
of my own strength,
my own vision
and my own ability
to do the undoable.

Contemporaries of My Soul

Contemporaries of My Soul

“Who are my contemporaries?”
Juan Gelman asked himself.
So often, for me
it is not the people I know
in the here and now.
There are a few
with whom I resonate in unexplainable ways.
More often, however,
it is people long gone,
people I have never met,
people who left me a wisdom
and a legacy which resonates with my sould
and makes me feel as if
we knew each other in a way
that transcends understanding.
It's poets like Lao Tzu,
Pat Parker,
Adrienne Rich, and
Audre Lorde.
It’s spiritual teachers like
Ram Dass,
Toltecs,
Thich Nhat Hanh
and Osho.
It’s the paintings of Jesus and Buddha
on Phoenix Island.
Cat Stevens singing about
The Peace Train
John Lennon
asking us to imagine,
Malala Yousafzai
fighting for women’s rights, and
Jhan Abdul Ghaffar Khan
who worked for peace and healing
There are my contemporaries
of the soul.
Who are yours?

The Listener

The Listener

A friend of mine
describes me as
the listener.
she says I hear the
whispers of the world.
it’s not something
I think about,
it’s just something
I put out in the universe.
It is like there is a message
I spread that says
I am here to listen to you.
I want you to be heard.
Listening is a sacred gift.
it is about more than hearing
what is said.
It is about listening with the soul
and hearing the meaning
coming from the soul.
