giving away love

Posted: Mon, Nov 1, 2004 04:42:04 AM

two days without writing and no good excuse. the truth is i have been blocked from my feelings since thursday and have been unable to really meditate or find any connection to anything beyond myself. i have been very careful to not act-out by going out and buying something ,withdrawing from the love of those around me or isolating and pushing everyone away.
this morning i finally started to feel the block lift and was able to feel a connection of sorts. i actually feel GOD's love for me today so the reading was more than appropriate for what i am currently going through.
i do not know whether the block i have is the result of GOD's care for me or my disease preventing me from feeling what i need to, i do know that i feel it lifting and will be present for whatever comes as the emotions i have been "not feeling" come back.
i also know that the love and strength i have received since coming to the program is the result of working and living the steps. today i want to share what i am once again starting to feel and let GOD work through me.

Tao Te Ching

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

The Tao Teh King, or The Tao and Its Characteristics
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 2

1) He who knows these two things finds in them also his model and
rule. Ability to know this model and rule constitutes what we call
the mysterious excellence (of a governor). Deep and far-reaching is
such mysterious excellence, showing indeed its possessor as opposite
to others, but leading them to a great conformity to him.
