"Meaningful Action"
COMPLACENCY...........is no longer an option!!!!
"WHY must we forget that tomorrow is a hope, never a promise."
Saving Grace
Now as gray as an old mare
I shade the silver in my hair.
It's not shame I choose to hide,
but the carousel inside.
In this cold place
where I feel grief
stealing days……
this quiet thief.
It comes, the same
as it will go.
Exactly like
a winters snow.
Sometimes brief, and short,
and light.
At others
a blizzard
void of white.
Unexpected, unprepared;
like a child
feeling scared.
When at last the sun comes out,
blazing,
roaring with its shout.
So joyful is
again that day,
unabashedly
I turn its way.
Towards the UP,
away from down.
Which inevitably
comes back round.
Until then
I'll dance, I'll fly
For in the end
the by, and by.

Home Sweet Home
I'm slowly but surely settling into my new place. I have a larger studio area, but it's an open concept, so I have to focus on keeping things neater as I work....NOT!!!!!
I've been having trouble with the internet and telephone service here, but that's OK too. Keeps me focused on the chores that need doing. Besides I'm not a phone person. Would be just as content without one. ;-)
I prefer interacting face to face, which reminds me.... set up Facetime, or whatever!!!
With that said....wishing all of you..............Hippie, Happy thoughts! XOXO

Ebb and Flow
Life playing out. Ebb and flow. Sometimes the waters are calm, sometimes the waves are overwhelming. It's our calling to ride them, learn to navigate, be courageous, ....have FUN.
When the waters are still....float along in a state of gratitude, study the lessons, and ready yourself for the next big one.
In the meantime....paint your board all kinds of different!!!! XO

With as much as I've got going on these days, this is a perfect way for me to wind down before bed.
Thanks Ayala!!!

It's nice to be back home, but the days traveled by so quickly...I'm left with a vague sense of unreality. Yet in the surreal lies the undeniable; deep, tender, compassionate, unconditional love. The tangible embrace filled with it's soulful, familial fragrance. One which forever endures......
and so I remain eternally grateful.
This is the only journal page I managed during my visit, but there will be many, many more pages, words, images, new roads, and venues to discover, to share... inspired mostly by the Matriarch, my devoted, beloved, Aunt Rachel.
