Don't Be Afraid of the Dark

Don't Be Afraid of the Dark - by Gwen

At the blackest ebb of midnight--
not a single star in sight--
there's a still and quiet whisper
of ebony delight.

It may appear quite frightening
to those without true faith.
But darkness only serves to show
where Light can heal our ways.

If you listen in the stillness
you can hear a voice inside.
It's the steward of the lighthouse
sent to help you through the tide.

So, don't tremble as you stumble
down life's dark and narrow path.
Pick up your torch and lantern
and forge on to greater tasks!

Take heart in your ability
to navigate at night.
And remember that instinctually
you're headed for the Light!

So I Have a Question - by Jessica Schab

So I Have a Question?

If love is the most powerful, most important thing in the world,
How come it does not rule?
We know that love is the true source
Of health, wealth, and well being.
Each of us is a love container.
Then why do we not love each other equally?
We are capable of revolutionary, mind-numbing love,
So why does not love rule?
Even the very rich are suffering from love deprivation,
And science does not see that love is our life source
While religion sees an absolute Being of love as outside of them.
How sad.
I weep for this place.

So if love is the only true super hero,
As it is smart enough not to fight, to just be,
Sad that to most love is just an out-there fantasy.
Fighting for love is a great fallacy.
So tell me, where do you keep your treasure chest of love hidden?
Does your love have a home?
Or is your love homeless, wandering the streets,
Looking for easy handouts every chance it gets?
Come, tell me, why love does not rule the world?

And why love does not rule your own world?
You have control of that one, at least.
After all, we are the president of our own love.
And we have complete freedom and choice
Every time to dispense as little or as much as we like
Into every moment on-the-go in life.
Let love rule first in you and all you do,
Then watch it emanate off of you,
Projected out into everyone's world.
This is how love can go back to ruling the world.
So I have a question.
If love is the most important thing in the world,
How come it does not rule the world?
How come it does not rule your world?
