Goodbye....for now

So this blog has fallen by the wayside a bit.  But I promise I've been writing...other things.  My focus has shifted as I've been given a gift - the opportunity to start and teach my own Mind, Body, Soul program for kids, Bright Soul Kids.  This is my Purpose and my Dream.  I'm still pinching myself.  And I'm diving in heart first.  Soon I will be launching my Bright Soul Kids blog.  I will be focusing, but not limiting, myself.  Sacred Communication has been a period of growth and exploration for me.  For that I am grateful.  But I assure you that by no means am I done growing and exploring!  There are cycles within and without cycles for all of us.  The beginning of one often means the ending of another.  I'm ok with that.  As a farewell gift, here's a poem I wrote about perhaps one of our greatest cycles-life/death.  <3 <3 <3  Brightest blessings to all you beautiful souls!  I'll catch you on my new blog.  Stay tuned for details!  In the meantime, enjoy!


There is a revolution
                    against decay
                             rot
                                 dust
We are refusing
          this natural order
Not botox
          not pilates
                   no war on free radicals
Our rebellion is an embrace

Nourished we grow
  we nurture until
          we only have enough for ourselves
   until our skin is so thin           we don’t even have enough for that
 

By then, it’s been so long
          since we’ve given
  we decide to make nourishment
                                      our last act of love


We lay our bodies down
          and offer what we have left to the Earth
                                                                   to grow a tree
                                                                   to grow a ship
                                                                   to grow a home
                                                          to grow a breath
                                                to become the whisper of
                                                          the Divine


There is a revolution
          of our planet
                    of our planet around our Star
Freedom is found in transformation
          of our turning to a twirl
                    of our spinning to a spiral
Our rebellion is a surrendering
                             an act of Trust
                                      in Perfect Love

A Valentine


Om mani padme hum

 

Within
the Lotus
there is a
Jewel
Without
the Jewel
there is still
the soft petals
of a breath-catching flower

 

Within
my Body
there is
my Soul
Without
the Soul
there is still
the perfect fleshbloodboneswatercellsmoleculesatoms
of Divine Creation

 

Within
the Heart
there is
Love
there is no Without
there is only Within

 

and when I wander
seeking to be empty
proclaiming myself loveless
the farther I walk
the deeper Within I travel
until I can only come home
to Love

 

Within
and
Without
there is only
Love
