CHAPTER 52

SHINE ON

“All is Sacred. We can never honor All enough. It is that effort that will create more love in all our lives. Let us continue.”

GEORGE BERTELSTEIN

W HAT EVER shall we do, without the tyranny of darkness to distract us?

Forward, into the miraculous we go.

Forward, into the fire of love where ego dissolves into a thousand butterflies.

There is the endless play of beauty to create—as paintings or poems or rituals or ordinary moments. There is gratitude to express—as kisses, homemade chocolates, handwritten love notes, or honey-filled words. There is bliss-ipline * to attend to. Let’s get our luscious on. There is our unique flavor of magic to cultivate. There is meditation to indulge in and the nectar of stillness to drink. There is sunshine to bask in and sweet breezes to savor. There are babies to make. There is training to do and people to serve. There is the art of thinking to practice and the limitless adventure of awakening to enjoy. And there is a wedding in Africa to plan.

* bliss-ipline is the literary love child of bliss and discipline, a new word birthed by the poetess and oracle Michaelah “Miraculah” Ivie.
