Almost There– by m.c.reardon
The emperor glides
just below the surface
living dreams of reality…
“Almost There”

INNER KNOWING
At this very moment,
dreams whisper in my heart, like silent footsteps on soft green moss,
bearing gifts of wisdom:
‘There is love out there
shining in the sun.
Soak it all up.
It was made just for you.’

Soulmate…a poem
SOULMATE by m.c.reardon
I trust that you will live your life to the fullest, never hold yourself back simply to please me, inspire me to be the best I can be, treat me with the same kind of respect that you want for yourself, sit with me and watch the moon rise when I need you to, realize that your spiteful words should have never been given a voice, accept my apologies gracefully, never ask me to give up my light just to please you, just focus on the things that make you feel good about yourself without forgetting me, never expect me to stop doing what makes me happy, do everything you can to tell me how you feel…good or bad, give to me when I need it most, make me feel like there’s no one else, listen to your heart rather than your fears, keep me as emotionally, physically and spiritually safe as you can because you would never want anyone to harm me…including yourself.
Walking your own path
“No one holds the single key to Wisdom and Truth, but everyone holds the key to Love and Compassion. Don’t let anyone tell you what to think …think for yourself…listen to what is authentic and sincere within your own soulful heart.”–m.c.reardon

Installing Love: Happy Love Day!
This lovely card is one of many in a book of vintage postcards I found on one of my artist’s dates at the Mill End fabric store. It reminds me of my great grandmother, who would let me look through her boxes of toys and cards when I was very young. Now her home belongs to strangers and the monkey tree that stood for many decades in the front yard is gone.
Yet beauty never changes. And neither does Love. Which brings me to the piece below, emailed to me by one if my very favorite people. Enjoy!
Installing Love
Tech Support: Yes, how can I help you?
Customer: Well, after much consideration, I’ve decided to install Love. Can you guide me through the process?
Tech Support: Sure, I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?
Customer: Well, I’m not very technical, but I think I am ready. What do I do first?
Tech Support: The first step is to open your heart. Have you located your heart?
Customer: Yes, but there are several other programs running now. Is it okay to install Love while they’re running?
Tech Support: What programs are running?
Customer: Let’s see, I have Past Hurt, Low Self-Esteem, Grudge, and Resentment running right now.
Tech Support: No problem, Love will gradually erase Past Hurt from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory, but it will no longer disrupt other programs. Love will eventually override Low Self-Esteem with a module of its own called High Self-Esteem. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge and Resentment. Those programs prevent Love from being properly installed. Can you turn those off?
Customer: I don’t know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?
Tech Support: With pleasure. Go to your start menu and invoke Forgiveness. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge and Resentment have been completely erased.
Customer: Okay, done! Love has started installing itself. Is that normal?
Tech Support: Yes but remember you only have the base program. You need to be running Love when you connect with other Hearts, and then upgrades are exchanged automatically.
Customer: Oops! I have an error message already. It says, “Error—Program must run on internal components.” What should I do?
Tech Support: Don’t worry. It means that the Love program hasn’t been run yet on your Heart. In non-technical terms, it simply means you have to Love yourself before you can Love others
Customer: So, what should I do?
Tech Support: Pull down Self-Acceptance, then click on the following files: Forgive Self; Realize Your Worth, and Acknowledge Your Limitations.
Customer: Okay, done.
Tech Support: Excellent. You are getting good at this!
Customer: Thanks.
Tech Support: Now copy these files to the “My Heart” directory. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching faulty programming. Also, you need to delete Verbose Self-Criticism from all directories and empty your Recycle Bin to make sure the old programs are gone for good.
Customer: Got it. Hey! My Heart is filling up with new files. Smile is playing on the monitor and Peace and Contentment are copying themselves all over my Heart. Is this normal?
Tech Support: Sometimes. For others it takes a while, but eventually everything gets it at the proper time. So Love is installed and running. One more thing before we hang up. Love is freeware. Be sure to share it and its various modules with everyone you meet. They will in turn share it with others and return some cool modules back to you.
Customer: I will. Thanks so much for your help!

A lover’s lessons
‘A lover’s lessons’ by m.c.reardon
A man’s true heart is private, not gregarious.
There’s angst and anger, discomfort and generosity, sorrow…and quiet joy. Both a child’s heart and the heart of a fierce warrior reside within a man’s chest, full of sacred truths and ancient spells.
Even so, the magic elixir of a man’s true heart is his tenderness, that which brings a woman to tears in joyful gratitude, making the world stop, just for a little while and sigh in perfect communion, as the stars whirl overhead in sparkling satisfaction…
