A Whisper
Let it be
this lust for life, all our
pride and joy.
Explore the power of your
black & white
and the ever-softness and
sensuality of grey.
Find your balance,
your life of paradox and grit of in-between.
Unleash the magic as beauty is amplified
and
explore your bit of serene.
This is the moment…
Where is your wild devotion?
What is your own quiet revolution?
Always by your side, Darling.
When was the last time
You talked with yourself?
Asked the hard questions,
Sat in the silence
& your heart truly felt.
When was the last time
You took yourself on a date?
Listened to your soul’s whispers
Over a slice of decadent cake
& whispered sweet nothings to your own lips.
When was the last time
you just held your body?
You heard your heart beat,
You felt lungs breathe
You noticed your center squeeze.
When was the last time
You were for you?
Cheered yourself on when the tough times were being gone through
Gave yourself a hug & a kiss just because you skin asked for it
Looked deep into your own eyes for the answers you sought
When was the last time
You truly believed?
You are worth everything you desire
Worth fighting,
Trying for
Loving more.
When, sweet friend.
And
If not now
when?
He & she both seeking the solace of another
soon to realize, the one they are needing to discover is actually each other
Finding the two at a hotel bar for a drink,
both sipping slowly and deep into think
He looking dangerous in a black suit and white shirt
eyes somber and not at all wanting to flirt
she looking ravishing with her hair done up high
a little black dress ending just at mid thigh
he stalks towards her space, when glances catch
she seems momentarily surprised
then lifts her drink and laughs into his dark eyes
“not able to find what you wanted & needed this evening?” she inquires
He responds deep and disappointed, “not at all, too many pretty little liars.
his voice descends to a dark whisper,
lips close enough to kiss her,
his index finger tilts her chin to guide her eyes upward to his own
“No more sexy banter and innuendo, my Queen.
Surrender all of you,
to me.”
I miss the wild blush of me
The heat which rises
When I think of you
my beautiful muse
Cover my cheeks
with butterfly wings
And
Whisper to me again
tell me what to do
Now is the time to…
look beyond the earthly to behold the divine
seek out the beauty in the ordinary
dance in the sky
breathe in the clouds
twirl the cosmos between fingertips
And to These.
intentional time with the Divine
sipping hot things with steam against skin
relishing the sound of voice spoken in deep connection
lighting a candle and meditation to the flickering flame
Everyday celebrations.
Yes.
Do not ask your children to strive for extraordinary lives. Such striving may seem admirable, but it is the way of foolishness. Help them instead to find the wonder and the marvel of an ordinary life. Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears. Show them how to cry when pets and people die. Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand. And make the ordinary come alive for them. The extraordinary will take care of itself. ― William Martin, The Parent’s Tao Te Ching: Ancient Advice for Modern Parents
I choose to “make the ordinary come alive” for me. And them.
The choice is always ours…
How will you let beauty be your guide today?
Listen Well, Dear One
you are enough
you hurt. I know. life hurts. the challenges are painful and there is struggle.
you strive and reach and try and trip. all will be well.
you are a blessing. you have worth, even when you fail.
your eyes are filled with tears. you are still beautiful.
always beautiful.
people hurt you, so deeply. it’s because you care and because your heart is big and pure and true. Keep being open. You are amazing for just being you.
maybe. just a thought. you need to focus on you. the love for you is the most important thing you can nurture. don’t worry. it will overflow into others. they get the overflow.
YOU matter. I am so proud of you. you make me smile.
please keep up the hope. and the love.
I love you. I love you. I love you.
You are the finest,
loveliest, tenderest,
and most beautiful
person I have ever known-
and even that
is an understatement. -F. Scott Fitzgerald
What do you long to hear?
I am sending you…
Sunshine ribbons of warm light
Wind whispers-listen closely
Adventure Owls reminding you to always believe in yourself
Spider webs to remind you of spontaneity and the joyful feeling that comes with finishing well what you start
Sunsets ablaze showing you how to see & protect what you believe in
Star gazing so you will always know where you are and may gently lead the way
Moon beams to help you celebrate you-true and pure love.
I wish for you…
to be lit from within by living intentionally. Don’t just let life happen to you. Make goals and then make them happen..
to clean & simplify
to create your space by feeling like you belong inside of your skin and inside of your life. That sense of belonging is essential. Do the work that gets you there, let go of the things that don’t.
to listen to your body and your inner-self and give you what you need. Even when it’s telling you what you don’t want to hear, listen anyway.
to discover exactly what you need to be healthy in mind, body, and spirit and then let it into your life.
to love things with passion. Delight in the little things. It’s the little moments that make up the bulk of our lives. Don’t overlook them, don’t cease to appreciate them
to give.
to receive an abundance of love, friendship, and support. Those things a happy life make. Seek out those things, even if it’s only from yourself.
to be flawed and know that you are worth loving and being cherished for exactly who you are. Let me repeat: You are worth loving.
to be nothing but yourself. love yourself. Deeply, completely, and unconditionally. If you strive for anything this year, strive for that.
to begin again, each time fearless
My wishes. These my dreams, desires, deep wants. To you. To Me. For Us.
