Seems a good time to explicate some consciousness. I do not know how lengthy this entry will be, nor do I know how brief. I have been more ill during the past few days than I can remember being in a long time. Get your flu shots, eat your vitamins, etc. It seems to me that the sickness that I am currently experiencing is not something that has ( Read more... ) -

Emily Dickinson's THE SOUL SELECTS HER OWN SOCIETY
The soul selects her own society,
Then shuts the door;
On her divine majority
Obtrude no more.
Unmoved, she notes the chariot's pausing
At her low gate;
Unmoved, an emperor is kneeling
Upon her mat.
I've known her from an ample nation
Choose one;
Then close the valves of her attention
Like stone. -
Emily Dickinson's SUCCESS IS COUNTED SWEETEST
Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne'er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.
Not one of all the purple host
Who took the flag today
Can tell the definition,
So clear, of victory
As he, defeated, dying,
On whose forbidden ear
The distant strains of triumph
Break agonized and clear! -
Emily Dickinson's THE ONLY NEWS I KNOW
The only news I know
Is bulletins all day
From Immortality.
The only shows I see,
Tomorrow and Today,
Perchance Eternity.
The only One I meet
Is God, -the only street,
Existance; this traversed
If other news there be,
Or admirabler show -
I'll tell it you. -
Untitled Poem
Your eyes, round and brown
Are infinitely manifold
In each of mine,
Mine in yours,
Though if ever eyes there are with which should nature never tamper
Theirs are yours
Take precious care, therefore, to insure
Lest perchance out they fall
With one eye will we cry
Though downward is heavenward
And we are not alone -

Emerson's SPIRITUAL LAWS
"A little consideration of what takes place around us every day would show us, that a higher law than that of our will regulates events; that our painful labors are unnecessary, and fruitless; that only in our easy, simple spontaneous action are we strong, and by contenting ourselves with obedience we become divine. Belief and love,----a believing ( Read more... )
