A roundabout she does go and go

2010-09-14T21:09:39-06:00By |Challenge|

With the cool weather I'm back to my favorite several mile trek taking a little over an hour to cover the ground I choose. It's good time for me, moving, breathing, allowing my mind to wander as it will. And, like getting a good night of sleep, I wonder, 'how is it I forgot how [...]

Men…..Women, Hearts and Minds

2010-09-12T22:11:07-06:00By |Compassion|

We all know we are different, men and women. I'm thinking today about really how we are the same, though come at our desires and needs differently. I'll venture to say that even with sexuality, with a commensurate blend of mind and heart, men AND women seek fulfillment of pleasure, (yep, satisfaction) and connection there [...]

Deleting she did go.

I woke this morning, oooooh, after a long and luxurious sleep, my favorite...to a kind, thoughtful, sweet and loving note from a new friend. It was so different from the sort of communiques I've received over the past many years....in many ways. I sat with it, considering the sort of person who might write such [...]

When crashing comes…

It's usually a sign. Something needs to go. Something. 'But what' you ask. 'But what? Won't my world come crashing down if I let go one leggo stick? Maybe. Or maybe you'll find a new supporting beam. 'Leggo my leggo' you protest! And boom, boom, boom.....a tumble goes that neat little world you kept yourself [...]

And the lights went out…

When it's time, how interesting to feel the lights go out in areas of our house, our hearts, our souls. Maybe not altogether, but certain things which had a shiny allure, dim, as that's what happens as we shift to other things calling forth our attention, our passions, our hearts and interest. And when those [...]

The unmeasured moment

2010-09-01T23:12:02-06:00By |Expansion|

I've been out of my own pocket lately...diverted by a number of keen surprises, epiphanies of late really.   My earlier surrender, post meltdown, catapulting me into new territory which has me both delighted and standing a bit quiet amidst the flurry of 'little me's' scurrying about, running around me in a smidge of a [...]

Falling Forward

2010-08-24T09:52:04-06:00By |Change, Possibility and Intention|

I felt it....this morning. Unable to sleep....doing my toss-turn-flop-head churning-dreaming thing I do when I can't sleep. (it's the dogs and their incessant licking that woke me.....oooooh, my pups....CLEAN pups)! Okay, Mercury's in retrograde (and more specifically, here)....my friend Louise keeps me up to date with such things. I'm never sure what that means though [...]

Good to Remember…

'Don't be afraid to be outrageous; the critics will shoot you down anyway.' Sir Laurence Olivier It's true....working to please the world will just get you in one mess a trouble. My best friend 2Lu, (who has a milestone birthday this very day), tells me often to not have expectations and I'll never be [...]

Stillness?

"Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance." - Morgan Freeman, Actor I'm practicing.....but.....ooooh, ooooooh I gotta run....I've got to go.... I have an appointment. So, you see the challenge. Still amidst mayhem and travail. I'm a practicing 'stillness' artist, feeling flushed all the [...]
