Love speaks
Love is silent
Love is colorful
Love is gray
Love rescues
Love gives life
Love carries the
Seed of compassion.
Love lives
For the open hearted
And for the ones
With closed hearts.
Love is always here
Patiently waiting
And loving.
Love,
The Seed Pod

And reminders of love can be found on the side of the road at a freeway entrance. This one has a blog post coming soon. One day a few months ago I pulled over, got out of the car, closed my eyes, and asked to see a situation differently. Opened my eyes to this …. Love was (and is) the answer. xoxo
Doors close.
Control is lost.
Bewilderment envelops.
Yet, love is ever there.
Waiting patiently for ….

The Three Ghosts
She opened her eyes and saw three ghost like figures covered in nearly translucent and tattered bed sheets.
Slowly and with thinly veiled fear she approached the first figure. She asked what it had to impart to her.
She intuitively knew she had to lift the sheet to learn the answer. The fear had welled to a point where she knew if something didn’t happen to halt it, the anxiety would overtake her mind.
With trembling hands she delicately and slowly lifted the sheet. With utter surprise and sheer awe she saw that the figure held the message of strength and was only patiently waiting for her to retrieve the gift of Strength.
The figure handed her a black cube which she instinctively knew was to be absorbed by her entire body. “For I will be your strength. It is I who move you to do the things you know not why you are moved to do them. This cube represents the Strength that has always been within your heart.”
Years of “me too” led her to believe she was not strong and should not stand up for what she believed in her heart. By absorbing the gifted cube, she would release all that she had boxed within.
She claimed this gift of Strength and knew it would never leave her.
With an air of conviction she approached the next figure. With much less timid hands she lifted the sheet. This figure revealed to her how ….. Go here to read more …

I had fun researching for this blog post! What is the meaning of mindfulness? Does it make your eyes roll even thinking about it? Or, does it bring feelings of peace just thinking about it?
I was curious just where the word originated, where the practice of “mindfulness” originated and what does it mean in the current Western civilization. I researched what it means to be mindful, the skills of mindfulness, and a few mindfulness exercises. I also found a great mindfulness quiz and share my results with you! Have fun!
“Mindfulness has its origin in ancient meditation practices. According to Dictionary.com the term mindful originated in in late Middle English around 1375 and is defined as being attentive or aware. Before that, in 1200, was a now obsolete term of mindiness. It’s not clear from researching … ” Go here to read more …

Walking through a

Look! Light at the end of the tunnel.
No wait, then … she had a vision.

She had chosen to
go deep this time.
Chosen to unearth
a hurt buried so
deep, she tricked
herself into believing
it never happened
and was gone forever.
A hurt that caused
her to ….
