It's a touchstone, my touchstone, and it's the moment when the Light broke in and made me notice something something new. It's the moment the Truth grew out of, and I return to that moment again and again as I write. The rock of that sense-memory becomes the measure of my honesty: if I cannot trace my words back to that moment of lived truth, those words, I know, are not real, but 'mere notions'."<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Michael Bright CrowMichaelhttp://walhydra.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25987874.post-75842363469578343492014-04-29T15:40:47.125-04:002014-04-29T15:40:47.125-04:00Thanks for commenting, Stacy.

What you say about the difference between notions and being faithful--that perspective really strikes a chord. I appreciate your opening up the process.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08297253093260251145noreply@blogger.com
