Thank you to the wonderful women who gathered this weekend for Deepening the Senses Retreat and to everyone in Dunderry for the kindness and warm welcome. I am home now and so grateful for the wonderful feedback you have given me, your kind and very generous words. Heart felt thanks. Until next time...grá Eileen . ' Love is the real power. It's the energy that cherishes. The more you work with that energy, the more you will see how people respond naturally to it, and the more you will want to use it. It brings out your creativity, and helps everyone around you flower. Your children, the people you work with--everyone blooms'. Marion Woodman

A soft quiet morning here in Dunderry at Deepening the Senses 'Awakening the Feminine' Retreat for our last morning together before returning home. Such a wonderful night last night with a group of beautiful women. We gathered by the fireside telling stories, sharing poetry, witnessing and celebrating. 'Be still, my soul, and steadfast.
Earth and heaven both are still watching
Although time is draining from the clock
and your walk, that was confident and quick, has become slow.
So, be slow if you must,
but let the heart still play it's true part.
Love still as once you loved,
deeply and without patience.
Let god and the world know you are grateful.
That the gift had been given.

You are immortal; you exist for billions of years in different manifestations, because you are Life, and Life cannot die. You are in the trees, the butterflies, the fish, the air, the moon, the sun. Wherever you go, you are there, waiting for yourself.

Among other things, you'll find that you're not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behavior. You're by no means alone on that score, you'll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You'll learn from them—if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn't education. It's history. It's poetry.
