The healing of tears and rain

I awoke in the wee small hours of Tuesday morning to the soft falling of rain and a breeze blowing through the narrow gap between my open bedroom doors.  At that moment I felt that supreme and illusive feeling of grace that can only come upon one in the silence, as nature and the elements surrounding our physical bodies touch the soul.   I actually went outside in my bare feet and walked in the rain and held a dew soaked leaf from my tulip tree to my cheek to feel the healing coolness of it.  When I got back into bed the words of this poem came to me.

Tears are healing like the rain

Falling gently from the leaves

Softening the hot burning places of trauma

Tears fall from the soul

To cleanse and soothe those raw places

Scoured out by loss or pain

Softening wounds and scars

Reminding us that grace can come

Bringing wisdom to the heart that remains

Seeking benediction

From the blessing 

Of falling rain

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.

  3. Queensland Australia desperately need rain because there are over 100 fires burning in the dry drought areas. The human tears will help to deal with their loss , the tears to come from above will help to create new life where nothing but ash is left.
