The Most Beautiful Thing
Childbirth. Menstruation Cycles. Did I confuse you with the title? Often, for whatever reason, in this society I was raised in… when one thinks of Childbirth and Menstruation Cycles they are not immediately brought to a sense of beauty, awe, wonder. More like, “Ew, Yuck, Let’s not talk about it, Ruins your body, Gross, Blood…
Beyond Manifestation
What is the Name of the Game? Recently I was having lunch with a friend who I have had several deep conversations with. We were chatting about life and what we have each been up to recently. He is BIG in to Napoleon hill, which make sense considering they have the same birthdays, October 26th, such…
Through the Ages
Art by Autumn Skye Morrison ~ http://www.autumnskyemorrison.com/ There I was, sitting on my pillow on the floor of my room, wrapped in a blanket, crosslegged, back straight, deeply open, flowing, feeling, after one hour of practicing addithana (strong determination, non-movement) Vipassana Meditation… I opened my eyes, and looked at my hands… and they began to reveal…

Being romantic about Death
I write a lot about death, I’ve noticed. Is it not the ONE thing that is guaranteed for us all? So I figure, why not take a closer look, see what it is teaching us. I started wearing this black ring around the ring-finger of my left hand. Where a typical engagement and wedding ring…
Sometimes I Write Myself A Love Letter
Hello Beautiful ❤ Do you know that I see you? I see who you are. I know that you are so much more than your beautiful body, the golden sun-kissed skin, the freckles, the wide-bright-brown eyes, the large, lucky 😉 forehead, those bones supporting your entire body, moving you, connecting you, grounding you to this…
