You start dying slowly

You start dying slowly ;

if you do not travel,

if you do not read,

If you do not listen to the sounds of life,

If you do not appreciate yourself.

You start dying slowly :

When you kill your self-esteem,

When you do not let others help you.

You start dying slowly ;

Fill yourself up with Love

There’s so much more to life than finding someone who will want you, or being sad over someone who doesn’t. There’s a lot of wonderful time to be spent discovering yourself without hoping someone will fall in Love with you along the way, and it doesn't need to be painful or empty. You need to fill yourself up with Love. Not anyone…

Siddhartha

The greatest achievement is selflessness.

The greatest worth is self-mastery.

The greatest quality is seeking to serve others.

The greatest precept is continual awareness.

The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything.

The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways.

The greatest magic…

Luna, calm me down.

Luna, calm me down.

Moon calm me - I need your light.

Get me drunk on whatever you want, but get me drunk.

I am a spy forgotten in the house of someone else's love.

I've lost touch with the world that doesn't exist.

Rain in the North, snow in the…

It says in the Tao, "Truth waits for eyes unclouded by longing."

It says in the Tao, “Truth waits for eyes unclouded by longing.”

The way I hear this in psychology is: motivation affects perception. When I’m hungry I see what’s edible. If I’m horny, I see what’s makeable. If I’m tired, I see what’s soft, you know, my motivation selects out of the infinity of the universe what it is that fits…

I will continue, always

This body of mine will disintegrate, but my actions will continue me… If you think I am only this body, then you have not truly seen me. When you look at my friends, you see my continuation. When you see someone walking with mindfulness and compassion, you know he is my continuation. I don’t see why we have to say “I will…

"This body is not me..."

"This body is not me; I am not caught in this body, I am life without boundaries, I have never been born and I have never died. Over there, the wide ocean and the sky with many galaxies all manifests from the basis of consciousness. Since beginningless time I have always been free. Birth and death are only a door through which…

Forget about enlightenment

Art by Kinuko Craft

Forget about enlightenment.

Sit down wherever you are

And listen to the wind singing in your veins.

Feel the love, the longing, the fear in your bones.

Open your heart to who you are, right now,…

We do not become storytellers.

Find what heals your soul

Art by Jennifer Yoswa

Find what heals your soul ❤️

If it’s your soul which is exhausted.

Food won’t satisfy a hunger for acceptance, love or adventure.

An empty void can’t be filled, with material possessions or holidays.

A bountiful bank account won’t buy health or…

May Day

"Rabbit Dancing Graces" by Melinda Cooper

Across the Western Hemisphere, May is the month for flora, fauna, and gardeners to revel in the arrival of spring. In Celtic lands, Maia (the Roman goddess of growth and increase for whom the month is named) originally shared the May…

Today I bow to all women

Today I bow to all women

who have endured

oppression, silencing, abuse, rape.



Today I bow to all women

who have made any steps

in their lifetime toward finding their voice, their truth, their heart, their power, in spite of it all.



Today I bow

to the long line of women who were…

Can you let me love you as you are?

Can you let me love you as you are?

All wide-eyed with wonder? Feral with possibility? Hungry with longing? You who are home to what is wild and divine. All the flavors of human. Can you let me love you in the moments of life that are both ordinary and divine? Through the seasons and cycles of the moon, reflected in both of our…

Excerpt from the book 'Butterflies and Pebbles'

I started calling that girl back. The girl who loved living, the girl who danced instead of walking.

The girl who had sunflowers for eyes and fireworks in her soul.

I started playing music again, hoping she would come out.

I started looking for beautiful moments to experience, so she would feel safe enough to show…

I no longer pray-

I no longer pray—

now I drink dark chocolate

and let the moon sing to me.

I no longer pray—

I let my ancestors dance

through my hips

at the slightest provocation.

I no longer pray—

I go to the river

and howl my ancient pain

into the current.

I no longer pray—

I ache,…

You are needed.

Remember the earth. Remember your ancestors. Remember your four-legged, winged, crawling relatives.

Remember life. Your life, your way of living, that is the only activism you’ve ever had. Use it. Make your

existence a ritual that honors everything your body and words touch. The times are troubled and you…

Your body believes in images.

Medical science confirms that the body does not seem to distinguish between an imaginal event and a physical event. Imagine yourself racing down a ski slope in a blur of snow, and your body’s electrical and chemical systems will respond as if you are out there on the mountain, as was confirmed long ago when sports psychologists wired up…

I am no longer waiting for a special occasion;

I am no longer waiting for a special occasion; I burn the best candles on ordinary days.

I am no longer waiting for the house to be clean; I fill it with people who understand that even dust is Sacred.

I am no longer waiting for everyone to understand me; It’s just not their task.

I am no longer waiting for the perfect…

“The Peace of Wild Things”

When despair for the world grows in me

and I wake in the night at the least sound

in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,

I go and lie down where the wood drake…
