A beautiful poem that touched my heart, so glad you found it. The lesson of humility, patience, understanding, respect, what wonder they hold for us. We are ushered into sacred ground where we see through the eyes of God. We understand that all is as it should be and all we need to do is mirror light, “…either be the light or the mirror that reflects it.”
Such gentleness and grace, thanks for the reminder, I will take it with me in prayer and meditation, asking to be it’s vessel.
Eternal blessings sister!
Hi Suzen…
how nice it is to see you freely on the site again! It wasn’t the same without you…;)
You know where that poem came from…right? The Barksdale Foundation. I’ve loved it since the moment I read it!
Blessings back…always, Kathy
When I first began my spiritual journey, I was like you. I was so thrilled at what I had learned, I wanted to share it with everyone. Eventually, I realized that not everyone was ready to hear my thoughts. Took some time but then I learned that what was more important was how I did my journey.
So I focused more on doing my part and ironically, people started to ask me about my journey and I would share my thoughts. Each person has to go at a pace that works best for them. We are all works in progress and eventually, we all will know the same things. Each soul just has to do what is best for their level at that particular time.
Nadia…that’s a perfect point that I failed to mention. We need to quit talking about “it” and be “it”…in other words, others will follow by example. As Ghandi most profoundly said:
“We must be the change that we wish to see in the world.”
Leading by example….;)
Thanks for coming by Nadia…;)
Hi Kathy – I had much the same experience as you. I wanted to let people know about physical immortality, but of course all I got was resistance, as though the concept was immoral! I simply stopped mentioning it to anyone, except occasionally when the other person really seemed to want to “go there” – then I’d somehow find just the right words. I remember reading the ideas in the poem in the books I am keen on – I don’t remember exactly where – and have found them inspiring over the years. Cheers Kathy!

Hi Robin,
I have to chuckle because it seems that most of us who have had this “stirring of the soul,” this explosion of “growth”…it is so obvious to us because of the euphoric feeling that we experienced when we opened to a place of “knowing.” But, as we all learned, trying to force this on others was like talking to a brick wall!
Nice to see you here Robin…always!
Kathy — I am pleased to visit your site. I went to Robin’s site and it was the first time I had heard about physical immortality. I obviously have a lot to learn. I will explore your site for more information because I like to learn new things and hear about what people have discovered. I figure there’s always somebody who can teach me something new and it’s up to me to keep an open mind.
BTY I also loved the poem. It is beautiful and speaks to how each of us is on a journey…sometimes we share the path with others and sometimes we don’t. Having the understanding to let someone follow their own path is wisdom.
Thank you for this post. I’ll be back to learn more:~)

Hi Sara…I am so glad that you navigated to this site…we welcome you with open arms! And, I love that you remain an open mind. We have been given the power of discernment…and this power will always lead us right if we just quiet our minds and listen! Most times I feel things in my solar plexus…:)
Please come back often and if you haven’t already done so, read “Student and Guru” and then download the PDF. Great stuff…and its free!
Blessings and hugs,
Kathy
Hi Kathy,just wanted to say hi,and I enjoy coming to your sight and reading what others are saying about immortality.I enjoy reading others tell about how they have found it out.The more I read the Bible the more I realize the truth of it was always there.I was just to bto life is blind to see it.The road to life is narrow and few find it.Thank you,for sharing your faith with me.Your friend, Andy
Hi Andy…welcome back! I am so glad that you enjoy coming here. Keeping things simple, for I believe the soul responds to simplicity and beauty is my goal here.
Please come back often. You have much to share.
Hugs,
Kathy
Hi Janni…
You know Janni, this poem is so simple and yet it conveys everything that we need to know concerning sharing our wisdom with others and connecting with what they have to share with us. I really believe Truth is the epitome of simplicity.
Sort of like that last story you posted. It was so beautiful in its simplicity and instead of masking Truth in complicated words and settings…it allowed Truth to shine forth in all its brilliance!
Hug to you Janni…Kathy
Hi Kathy – What a beautiful poem. I found it hard to get my head round the idea of physical immortality when Robin first wrote about it. But I definitely want to learn more. I reckon anything is possible if you can imagine it.
Hi Cath…it can be hard to ‘see’ past all those untruths we been conditioned to believe all our lives. But as long as we keep an open mind, Truth will find its way to us…in the most amazing and sometimes shocking way! Remember your power of discernment Cath…your only authority on any issue is your Divine self (who conveniently lives within)…who waits quietly for your attention…;)
Please come back!
Kathy
Hi Akemi,
You are so generous offering your ebook for free to those that are drawn to it, the least I could do is let others know of its availability!
I cannot wait to read it myself!
Blessings and gratitude….Kathy
Hi, Kathy — so glad I decided to take a vacation from my vacation and visit you today! The poem is so perfect, the wisdom so delicately and lovingly put. Like you, and like so many others, I wanted to shout my discoveries from the highest rooftop! And like you and the others, quickly realized the ONLY way to share is by simply living my truth, just being the living witness. It’s easier to do when I realize the truth of something my daughter posted on her wall a long time ago: “God is everything; God is perfect; therefore Everything is Perfect.” Thanks for the poem, thanks for you!

Hi Jeanne…You nailed it Jeanne. Your daughter is very wise…;)
We must learn that the only way to truly teach others is by example. Or as Gandhi says: “We must be the change we wish to see in the world.”
Nothing we say will hold any weight unless we back it up with our actions. Teaching by example. Those are the true teachers…;)
Thanks for stopping by…
Kathy
What a beautiful poem and a beautiful website. This is really where your heart is in this kind of sharing of your spiritual knowledge.How wonderful that you can take these lessons and apply them to everyday life. We never really have enough teachers like you in this world.Thank you
