Dearheart, Tony, When visiting, the guest behaves well, is thankful for the loving attention that his host bestows upon him. They share stories that bring back long-forgotten laughter. Their hearts lift in joy to be together and know such love is possible. What is pollyanna spirituality? I have never heard this term used before. Just yesterday morning I wrote on my notebook to search for a movie called "Pollyanna," a childhood favorite of mine. Is your reference to this type of spirituality gleaned from this character? I still do not understand which 'mushy warm fuzzies' you are referring to Tony. I imagine that you could probably think of my way of communication as this. Do you feel in your heart Tony, the love that I send to you when I talk to you? Do you doubt its genuineness? I have heard accounts over the years of those who were in deplorable conditions of hunger, disease and suffering, and yet these people still could look at the sun and moon, and see the beauty of their God. To those who will see, He is seen. To those who will hear, He is heard. I know someone who starved to death and now is back as a joyous Bhakta. Ah Tony, come and play with me, I've come a long way to be here with you. Bare your heart like Hanuman and see the Beloved there. Throw down all your worries and defenses, just let go of everything you think, and Love like you've always dreamed of before. Love Tony, let the love do its work. That Love will clean those pesky sheaths for you. Love to You Tony, Mazie > > Perhaps my visit will in the end provide some perspective, to where > the truth lies.
