Love and Light

In the darkness of the unknown I have learned to wait. Emptying my mind of the endless possibilities, allowing them no chance to rise up and enter the reality whose sanctity I am trying to protect, I light a candle and focus on the light.

Here, in the silence, I pour my heart out into that flickering flame, feeding it with love and visions of emptiness waiting to be filled. Brushing all shadows gently away with the whisper of a breath, I open myself.

Eventually the visions come, of light and love and life and this is where I rest. Floating gently in the womb of creation, allowing myself to neither ask, nor refrain from asking, that which my heart desires. Knowing that if the power to make it happen exists, so does the power to reach into my heart and know what it is.

My only words? Thy will is my will. Asking more would be too terrifying. Wanting more inconceivable, and yet, the tiny flickers of fear break through now and again and my tears wash them away. Tears born from the love that fills me in this beautiful light.

Tonight there can be only love and light.
