Calendar of the Soul Ninth Week [May 22, 2016 – May 28, 2016]

When I forget the narrow will of self,

  The cosmic warmth that heralds summer’s glory

  Fills all my soul and spirit;

  To lose myself in light

  Is the command of spirit vision

  And intuition tells me strongly:

  O lose yourself to find yourself.
