In the spirit of this year's Heartwork focus on "Letting Go," I am sending out weekly quotes that relate to the topic. I hope that you will be touched by them in some significant way.
Blessings on your journey,

Not the real gold
The day comes
when the bodies prayers
are answered;
Holding the coins
in your hands,
you suddenly know that
this is not the gold
you have been
praying for.
Security in this world
puts you to sleep
in the real world.
How can you
hear the bells
of your true desire
when you are so warm
and cozy here?
You don't want to hear this;
Your bed is so warm
and the morning air
so cold.
Yet your soul knows
it is being called
to Annihilation.
Holding on and letting go
have been dancing
together for years now;
Soon exhaustion
will kiss you both.
The cymbal and drum
will crash their great ending.
Now, at last,
You can all fall down.
Richard Wehrman
