Greetings from Danna Faulds
Welcome to my website. Writing has been an important part of my life and spiritual journey for decades. In fact, I would say that I’ve written my way into the person I am today. I post a “poem of the week” most Wednesdays, and prose pieces as they come to me. I hope you enjoy them!
Poem of the Week
September 30, 2026
Infinite Isness
Infinite Isness
When I close my eyes and
go inside, I find an infinite
isness, shining and alive.
I've asked myself a hundred times,
is this just wishful thinking or
the product of an overactive mind?
I can't prove anything one way
or the other, but when I sit with
this presence, I end up so infused
with wonder and love,
the question seems unnecessary.
The mystery will always be
a mystery, but I can let myself
know what I know of the ineffable.
When peace comes, when gratitude
rises like a full moon high tide,
when I can be with my thinking
mind and not get caught in moods,
or shame, or stories, that's when I
can allow the moment to be as it is
without needing to understand it.
The gifts of the divine are many
and surprising. I say yes to all
the ways they manifest.

This is what I have to say to you. Today is where the rubber meets the road. You get to choose whether you let the literal and figurative noise and chaos around you throw you for a loop. You can choose to focus on the presence at your center, on what shines despite the imperfect externals. If you do this, there can even be a touch of bliss in the midst of craziness. There can be communion with the whole at a time when to do so seems impossible. I’m here to tell you that the divine is with you now -- and always with you if you pay attention, trust, and refuse to get flustered. Now is the moment to receive.
