Today is my grandson’s 9th birthday, seems like he was just born yesterday. What a child he is, a whole conumdrum of positive/negative charges that leaves me in awe and wonder. A thought provoking child and way ahead of his time…….or perhaps a product of these times……Happy Birthday Clinton!!
As I was checking my favorite sites this morning I came across an old Van Morrison song whose lyrics seem to fit my grandson, so thought I would share this very beautiful, thought provoking piece:
I’m a dweller on the threshold
And I’m waiting at the door
And I’m standing in the darkness
I don’t want to wait no more
I have seen without perceiving
I have been another man
Let me pierce the realm of glamour
So I know just what I am
I’m a dweller on the threshold
And I’m waiting at the door
And I’m standing in the darkness
I don’t want to wait no more
Feel the Angel of the Presence
In the mighty crystal fire
Lift me up consume my darkness
Let me travel even higher
I’m a dweller on the threshold
As I cross the burning ground
Let me go down to the water
Watch the great illusion drown
I’m a dweller on the threshold
And I’m waiting at the door
And I’m standing in the darkness
I don’t want to wait no more
I’m gonna turn and face the music
The music of the spheres
Lift me up consume my darkness
When the midnight disappears
I will walk out of the darkness
And I’ll walk into the light
And I’ll sing the song of ages
And the dawn will end the night
I’m a dweller on the threshold
And I’m waiting at the door
And I’m standing in the darkness
I don’t want to wait no more
I’m a dweller on the threshold
And I cross some burning ground
And I’ll go down to the water
Let the great illusion drown
I’m a dweller on the threshold
And I’m waiting at the door
And I’m standing in the darkness
I don’t want to wait no more
I’m a dweller on the threshold
Dweller on the threshold
I’m a dweller on the threshold
-Dweller On The Threshold by Van Morrison

Hi Sue. I know what you mean. I have twin Aquarian grandsons who are nine! They are so special, so wise already and I am torn between fearing for their future and hoping to God that they get a chance to fulfill their destiny this time around. Teach each other well! Enjoy your day.
Shanti, Morvah
