Origin
Meaning of this word
Think warmth to absurd
Bosom longed for when away
Nest of freedom then you play
Home glowing embers warm hearts
Enraging inspiring motivating arts
Familiarity knows your presence
Heritage context of your essence
Blood relations origins genetic
Sometimes connections pathetic
Generating tumult strong emotions
Blurred boundaries magical notions
Preserving sacred traditions
Current grounding ancient religions
Visible place others see
Who is you who is me
Searching lost wandering spent
How to find where you went
Place to return hang with clan
Rest be held learn who you am
Who and what did family give you?
Do you return for their communion and have you forgiven them?

I have always been a seeker, always looking for the answers to what seekers ponder. I can remember Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Psychocybernetics; Dr. Carl Rogers On Becoming a Person. Moving through my legal training and practicing law the focus was always about people and how to better their lives. All that searching, reading, studying and introspective work culminated in this collection of daily readings for seekers.
My work in the world has progressed from fighting legal cases to mediating divorces to helping people understand the essentials of relationship and collaborating to these poems. How can we collaborate effectively and work with each other in harmony to create the world we seek. How can we mindfully enable this world to become a place that works for all.
My prayer is that through introspection using these poems as a guide we can all grow together in making the world the Heaven on Earth we all aspire toward.
