A Call for Creativity
FIRE IGNITING FIRE IGNITING FIRE
Mary Southard created the graceful poster (below) in response to “The Song of Love” from Awakening the Energies of Love. It can be seen on the website of the Ministry of the Arts and would make a lovely gift for a friend, a grandchild, or for someone’s graduation. Though the catalog shows the framed version, it is also available for $10, unframed, and all proceeds benefit MOTA.
The Song of Love
You are Love. You are Life. You are Light.
Go Shining.

Lisa Lipsett sent this lovely painting entitled "The Moebius Strip" in response to the following quote from The Dancing Animal Woman:
"Our deepest creativity is needed now, a creativity woven of all that we are. It is in that painstaking journey to our own centers, as we peel back and accept layer after layer of our humanity, that we find ourselves naked. At that center, the real spills out. There, the center and circumference of the compass dissolve endlessly into one another. It is the center which is everywhere."
"The Moebius Strip"
You are loved. You are accepted, held in a vast embrace. There is nothing in you, nothing of character or tendencies, race or sexuality, accomplishment, or failure that is not held, not needed.
. . . That which you are is deeply wanted.You are not alone. . . There is more going on than can be seen. You belong to an activity that is beyond comprehension. Trust it. . .
Thomas Merton said, ‘There’s no way of telling people they’re walking around shining like the sun.’
You are a shining. You are not only the small being who wants to be safe.
Let’s ignite some creativity together! I was amazed at the breadth of responses that The Dancing Animal Woman inspired, among them, stained glass windows, CD’s for a cancer support program, videos at a celebration with indigenous peoples, calendars, and more. This page is for your own creative work! If something from Awakening the Energies of Love orThe Dancing Animal Woman has inspired you, I’d be honored to display it here with a link to your url.
