The Heart Is The Home of Wonder
 <\/font><\/p>\n

Breathe in the warmth of this place, allowing yourself to feel a <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

sense of welcome<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

It is your own love, your own beauty that beckons you inside<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

How long has it been, since you have crossed this threshold?<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

The door has always been open, the invitation always extended<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Will you accept it now?<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n


<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Through the windows streams sunlight, casting rainbow designs on the walls<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

As prism glass reflects the scattered sparkling illumination<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

The floor beneath your feet is soft<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Caressing your skin as you tap your bare toes on its surface<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Daring to dance upon it to the lilting music that only you can hear.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n


<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

The table is set with all manner of lusciousness<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Nourishment for body and soul awaits you<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Always plenty to savor and share; a bounty spread before you<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Every imaginable treat to delight your senses<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

The sweet aroma that curls around you.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n


<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

The mirror on the wall reflects your exquisite nature<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

As you gaze into the eyes of the One who has been with you <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Through all eternity, questioning what has kept you from recognizing<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Your own ineffable Divinity<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Express your adoration for the S(he) who winks back at you.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n


<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Feel the all-embracing comfort of this structure that was created<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

Brick by brick, log by log, though your daily intention<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

The experiences and the people you draw into your world<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

The thoughts that permeate your mind<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font> <\/p>\n

The wild magic of your infinite imagination.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n
