An Awesome Purpose

June 18, 2026

Do you have a favorite poem? Perhaps like me you have a wealth of them.  Four times this week people around me have talked about concerns regarding their life purpose. Are they on the right path, they wonder? Mary Oliver answers that question better than anyone I know.

Messenger

My work is loving the world.
Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird – 
               equal seekers of sweetness.
Here the quickening yeast; there the blue plums.
Here the clam deep in the speckled sand.

Are my boots old?  Is my coat torn?
Am I no longer young, yet still half-perfect?  Let me
               keep my mind on what matters,
which is my work,

which is mostly standing still and learning to be astonished.
The phoebe, the delphinium.
The sheep in the pasture, and the pasture.
Which is mostly rejoicing,
since all the ingredients are here,

which is gratitude, to be given a mind and a heart
               and these body-clothes,
a mouth with which to give shouts of joy
               to the moth and the wren,
               to the sleepy dug-up clam,
telling them all, over and over, how it is
               that we live forever.

~ Mary Oliver, from her book, Thirst

Why — I can’t help but wonder — does it take us so long to learn to let astonishment be our purpose, sharing with all of life what we have learned from awe: that we are all forever-beings?  

This poem is like the whisper of my soul giving reminders.  Feel free to hit reply here and tell me what poem speaks for your soul.  I’d love to hear if you have time.

I’m embracing life today more freely,
With Love,
Mayet

It is a Tender Time for Me

June 11, 2026

I’ve had such feelings of sorrow lately.  And moments of great joy, but the sorrow has brought many tears that needed to flow into the world.  Tears about a friend departing physical life, tears for a world in stress and so many people brought low. I’ve wept recently for the relinquishment of a dream — it was time for it go but I still felt have felt the loss. Last week I even shed tears for this year’s summer garden, never planted.  So you see, It has been a tender time.  It hasn’t been a suffering time, more of a time of release.

Today — wanting to be active because I again felt saddened — I unpacked a small box of books, including The Prophet, by Khalil Gibran.  It opened to the following thoughts about joy and sorrow.  It felt so much like a hug from Life’s Wisdom and those who walk with me.  How could I resist sharing it with you?

On Joy and Sorrow
   By Kahlil Gibran

Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.

And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears.

And how else can it be?

The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.

Is not the cup that holds your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter’s oven?

And is not the lute that soothes your spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?

When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight. 

Some of you say, “Joy is greater than sorrow,” and others say, “Nay, sorrow is the greater.”

But I say unto you, they are inseparable.
Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at your board, remember that the other is asleep upon your bed. 

Verily you are suspended like scales between your sorrow and your joy.
Only when you are empty are you at standstill and balanced.

So we see that I’ve been emptying and filling then emptying again, in the universal rhythm of balance.  I think this is part of our work in the world right now, counting the joys, feeling the sorrows and their release.

May it serve us all
May this rhythm bring balance
May the river of our tears reach the vast, open Ocean 
And be absorbed in her great expanse of being. 
That is my prayer, in a tender time.

Shared with you with Love,
Mayet

A Message From the Heart of Love: Get Ready to Discover Your World Anew!

June 4, 2026

Today a message came for us from the Heart of Love.  I think it’s a very exciting one, enjoy!

Message From the Heart of Love
Get Ready to Discover Your World Anew!

We open the floodgates of our hearts and overflow with love for you in this time of great blessings coming forth.  We wish to issue an invitation to you that you are more than ready to receive.

We invite you to look to nature, to the earth, with new eyes and open mind. There is something more to see and to know.  Bless and honor her, delight in her, talk and sing to her, she is birthing new worlds and ways.  Do this and she will pour forth unto you and unto All, many fold.  This is true in profoundly new ways because the quantum connections are now open that facilitate this.  

Enter into your relationship with the fullness of Gaia — with the giving plants and plant beings, the lofting birds and Avians or winged ones and all the precious animals and varied and wondrous life forms.  Rejoice with the amazing earth beings that support them, the water and air sprites and spirits, the patient and strong rock and mineral beings, the majestic mountain ones, the glorious flower beings.  And the full, beautiful rainbow of peoples upon her.

Sit by the rippling waters and listen, feel what is there.  Feel the air and sun upon your face and rejoice in their embrace for they know you.  Dig your fingers and toes into the earth and inhale deeply; acknowledge the wonder of the plants and creatures you meet in your day.

Doing this will not be new for many of you, but if you let your relating be simple and pure of mind you will recognize the “more” that is now there and it will be profoundly felt as a rewarding exchange.  Enter in with the radiance of love that matches the frequency of Life and the radiance of service and support of all life to all other life. 

Match the level of peace that is there, meet it in your highest, as it meets you.  Express, share, give forth your glorying radiance to nature.  As you do, ask to join and be joined by them anew.  Prepare to be amazed and to realize that now you can experience Gaia and Life in a uniquely fresh way.

This is one of the great gifts of your time.  We invite you to hear this as an invitation to expand your experience and expectation of your world.  Run forth to accept the invitation with your arms and hearts open to receive and be received, and be ready to discover your world anew!
