X O X O X O X O .... THE 4 AGREEMENTS .... (this was sent as a bulletin 12/04/06 by MICTLAN MURALS when I was distressed concerning a friend's deep sadness......... THANK YOU ...... Click on Mictlan Murals icon below to learn more about them.) 1. Be Impeccable With Your Word Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.2. Don't Take Anything Personally Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.3. Don't Make Assumptions Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.4. Always Do Your Best Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.

LOVE PRAYER ........ ....... ...... dedicado a David Wraith Noble Dandridge, ... ... ... my love, my heart, my life, my soul's yearning, gemelo de mi alma, mi hermano, my bread, my water, my heavens black and dark, my heavens sunlit filled, LOVE ... .... .... ... ........ ... ....... .... .... "Corazon mio, Can I write a longing for you, the feeling of want that I enjoy so much?"Longing is a hunger to enjoy, el dolor de quererte; the deep longing of hunger is a beautiful thing, not the hunger to death, God Bless the hungry children, but the sweet blessed hunger of wanting your gentle touch, just the breath of you gentle blowing as you sit just within reach of me,whispering words of women in need of prayer, whispering prayers for unborn children, whispering grandmother words, speaking bolts of lightening, speaking flame and conflagration, arm around me, gentle breath that blows just past the air around my skin.Wanting you is like knowingGodfor moments at a time, knowing heartbeats of the earth, moments of conception, life’s flow of heart beat; it is electric knowing of each point of light in darkness living, each electric point of life with drops of blood traveling through flesh living.It is only now that wanting you needs a nearness to your flesh, needs to taste you whole ness,knowresurrection,to know wholeness, to feel fed. But even now, not to be fed so much as to know the hunger of your presence.Qu'es tener hambre de tu presencia? Es el latido del corazon -- the sound of a beat gently pounded hand to hand, the call of drum beats across the night waiting for answercrying for aid,drumbeats echoeing on the gentle echo of the river rippling against stones,the gentle beat disguised in cricket sound calling out for conditions of restraint, freedom magnificent, held by angels in the midnight breeze as cricket sound and echo of fish kissing air; it is the knowing of the cool of night air as one warm in blankets knows the stars.This hunger is pure and sweet y so tan lleno de delicias from feasts past that one is fed by hunger itself.Hunger is a prayer, una oracion, una peticion, un cantar, a song traveling over taps and beats, and one is like God in the moment of longing; the moment of longing is a oneness with God,a divine knowing of satisfaction’s belleza.It is the memory of your hand, una memoria of immediate cool-pulsating heat -- flame and heartbeat, melt of first snow, essential waters of the rivers flow, skin knowing skin knowing skin, brief hand, eternities’s servant, una llave de amor por un momento, eternal flame, brief moment of repose at the threshold of tit,flesh kissing flesh, warm knowing warm, one moment’s touch, electric, pulsating with the bolt of life, the cure, the essence of all tenderness, the center of adoration, Friday October 27, 2006 - 03:09pm (CDT) X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X X X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X O X X O X O X O X O X
