A Lifetime of Breath

a lifetime of breath escaped her lips as he stood in front of her she nearly  fell to the floor but he caught her on her way down his arms holding her as a lifetime  of pain was smoothed over and air reached her lungs

How Life Shaped You Into Becoming

“ The seeker said to Life,  "How do I overcome feeling disappointed by my life and discouraged by how my path has unfolded? And Life replied, "Is there a single person who looks back on their life and says 'Everything went perfectly to plan as I hoped?' Is there a single traveller who embarked on a journey and found Every path smooth, without a single obstacle? Is there a single artist who created a masterpiece and found Every stroke and colour blended seamlessly on their first attempt? Is there a single gardener who planted seeds and found Every bloom perfectly grown? Is there a single captain who sailed the seas and found Every voyage peaceful, with no storm that surrounded them? Is there a single dreamer who pursued their dreams and found Every aspiration fulfilled free from any challenge or struggle? Is there a single love story that unfolded meticulously and found Every moment perfect and free from heartbreak? Is there a single student who sought knowledge and fo...

Invitation

She told herself With him she would not pull away He was different  As his energy Seeped into her She resisted less And invited his fountain of life Letting it fill her Until nothing of her scent remained 

Love Out of War

You are not here to find love, nor to be greeted by happiness at every turn, nor to be showered with kindness, nor to be celebrated by all, to forever remain a child. No. You came here to create love out of war. Your soul willingly left its blissful place beyond all troubles to descend into a stifling frame of bone, blood and flesh. Why? Because only here can inner strength be forged by pain, can wisdom be nurtured by failure, can love be the reward of those who choose to give love. Your soul came here to struggle with the bitter things of life and squeeze out of them a syrup of sweet, inner joy. And as there is no sweetness as succulent as bittersweet, so there is no river of love that runs as deep as the love forged through a battle of the heart, no strength as powerful as that wrestled from the hands of an enemy through stubborn, defiant resolve, no wisdom as the wisdom gained by stumbling in darkness, standing up again, stumbling and walking again, and again. All that is good, all ...

Connection Surrounds You

When you fall so deeply that you feel that you aren’t going to make it to the other side, Love takes you by the hand and says, "I will guide you through the darkness, and together we will find the light." When you stumble into despair, Joy embraces you and says, "I will dance with you amidst the shadows, and together we will discover the sparks of happiness." When you sink into the depths of uncertainty, Clarity takes you by the hand and says, “I will be your anchor, grounding you in trust and guiding you towards answers.” When you lose yourself in heartache, Compassion holds you close and says, “I will heal your wounds with tenderness, and together we will find solace in the beauty of understanding.” When you surrender to vulnerability, Courage whispers in your ear and says, “I will celebrate your authentic self, and together we will create a space of bravery and growth.” When you succumb to fear, Confidence takes you by the hand and says, “I will be your strength,...

Starved Dry

  I was so hungry  For him My bones Starved dry Remembering  The way He made me feel And wishing  I was alive again

You Deserve A Great Love

I can see how your tired soul aches, heavy with the weight of a thousand lonely lifetimes.  You yearn for a love that calls to the fabric of your very being, to the truest parts of yourself.  You wonder sometimes whether real love exists as you sift through threads of the past and let go of old expectations, ancient memories and hearts that were never meant to be yours.  You wonder what love could be meant for you when you have walked so many roads that led to tangled ends. You question your worthiness, your heart and the depths of your soul. Sweet one, no matter how dark the day or what shadows of the past that rise, never doubt your deserving of a love that will actively choose your magic each day and dance in your rains each night.  You have a soul deep love that pounds in your chest; never silence the roar of your thunder for anyone. You have walked your path bravely and spent many dark nights sitting with your shadows present to the lessons that they bring....
