Welcome Home
"We are all longing to go home to some place we have never been -- a place half-remembered and half-envisioned we can only catch glimpses of from time to time. Community. Somewhere, there are people to whom we can speak with passion without having the words catch in our throats. Somewhere a circle of hands will open to receive us, eyes will light up as we enter, voices will celebrate with us whenever we come into our own power…Someplace where we can be free" ~Starhawk
It is no more surprising to be born twice than once; everything in nature is resurrection. -- Voltaire
On Good and Evil
"Of the Good in you I can speak, but not of the evil. for what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst? Verily when good is hungry it seeks food even in dark caves, and when it thirsts it drinks even of dead waters. You are good when you are one with yourself. Yet when you are not one with yourself you are not evil. For a divided house is not a den of thieves; it is only a divided house. And a ship without rudder may wanter aimlessly among perilous isles yet sink not to the bottom. "

Message From The Universe

Think that it's fun, that you're guided, and all is well. That there's time, that life is easy, and that the best is yet to come. Think that the reasons that elude you will one day catch up, that the lessons that have stumped you will one day bring joy, and the sorrows that have crippled you will soon give you wings. Think that you're important, that you cannot fail, and that happiness always returns. And think that you're beautiful. I do.

Searching Unnoticed

The Hiding Place, by Jalaluddin Rumi

The most secure place to hide a treasure of gold

is in some desolate, unnoticed place

Why would anyone hide treasure in plain sight?

And so it is said,

"Joy is hidden beneath sorrow."

It is almost the new moon, and on another inspiring blog, Miss R, has reminded me of the power of the new moon, especially the Virgo Moon, tomorrow. In homage to the new Virgin Moon, I am cleaning out my soul closet of unwanted habits, patterns, thoughts and worn-out beliefs which have cluttered my psyche of late...and with this I hope to find my Joy hidden beneath.

That Which I Wish to Let Go:

My unbridled anger and resentment

The guilt that usually follows nipping at anger's heels.

Self-Doubt

Self-Condemnation

Control

Fear of being Me

What I wish to Become:

Gentle with myself and others.

Loving to myself and others

Appreciative of the simple blessings all around me

Nurturing

Accepting

Connected to the Divine

See with New Eyes

Joyfully flowing with the Beauty of Life

The New Moon by Maxfield Parrish

I started two other posts over the past week but did not publish them...this blogging this is quite daunting at times and I am soo very rusty in articulating myself...wow...I will publish them in time, I owe my jumbled and fumbling thoughts that much respect ;) Namaste

Balloon Blessings and Wednesday Wishes

Looking into Rodeo's eyes...there is a pureness of spirit and true JOY just playing with his "puhpuhl boon" that I hope someday there to find myself. I think I'll let Rodeo lead me...he knows the way!

Lil bro' Buckle looks on longingly for the day when he can play along!!

My wish for today is that my sons hold within them this depth of being, this presence to joy and complete immersion into the moment...and that later in life, they can reach down and drink from this deeper well. That is the true path to happiness, something this 'thinking mama' is working on re-remembering...yoga and other bodywork helps me back to my heart, my core, mySelf. Reminds me of STP's lyrics, "and I think I think too much"....man have I been guilty of that. My babes are teaching me to just let it all go (as you can see in the background my yet to be finished folding and put-away laundry) Im a work in progress!!
