THIS IS MY TIME TO BE FULLY ALIVE AND FREE This is my time to let go of the old Painful ways and become awake and aware In the joyful flow of these present moments That are so sweet and full of light. When I enter into the expansive realm Of silent and serene exaltation— Only then am I able to understand And receive all that life is offering me. After a lifetime of incessant suffering, I have finally arrived at this time When I can hear the Divine calling me To rise up and become fully alive and free. All the pain and confusion I have been Going through was the result of getting Lost in believing my own dark thoughts And its maze of tortured emotions. Yet, all the fire in my soul really did Was burn away my false beliefs, One by one, until the inner truth Has dawned in me, bright and clear. I will not go back to that place Where I lived in a prison of my Own dark devise now that my own Light is rising to dispel the darkness. I smile as I step forward to claim The life that that was ever meant to be Mine now that my heart is open in the Pure and eternal love of the Divine within. April 6, 2023 Still Mountain Retreat

AN AWESOME SONG FOR YOU from my “Sweet Songs For The Dawning Light” playlist….
This is a powerful version of an ancient kirtan sung from the heart by a group of singers invoking the living presence of the Divine.
This song builds in tempo and energy all the way up to an uplifting peak at the end!
Enjoy!
