Dear Friend:
You made it so clear, you said what I wanted to hear.
You said you would stay the night.
You told me it would be all right.
You told me you would always be near.
My heart wanted to believe your lips.
My ears listened to your words oh so sweet.
My mouth wanted to kiss away your lies.
My soul yearned for release.
In that moment of passion, you believed it too.
In that moment of wanting, you whispered my heart's unspoken desire.
In that moment I was left wishing for more,wanting to even the score.
I left loving you, loving you from afar.
Dear Friend,
The lessons I have learned this year have created a new direction. My inner guide is singing with joy, and dancing in the living room when no one is watching. May you find inspiration in my words, may you find solace and light.
Resistance to change creates more resistance.
Relax and read the signs, pushing a door that is marked PULL will not open the door to success, only create frustration. Create your own fortune by relaxing into the NOW and enjoying the scenery.
Breathing isn't optional.
When life gets hectic, stop and take a deep breath, and then take another one. Until you are calm.
Naps as an adult are pretty cool.
Unless you wake up wondering what century it is or where you left your socks. Allow yourself to swim in a sea of possibilities, meditate and create.
Be kind, smile a lot and talk to random strangers.
Your energy changes the energy of those around you. The most interesting stories come from a passing conversation in the parking lot.
Don't give up. Ever.
Create your own story, mistakes are only failures if you miss the opportunity to use them as stepping stones to a better view.
Trust yourself. Always.
Your gut is never wrong, though sometimes we want it to be. Just because you want something doesn't mean its good for you. Trust yourself to know the difference.
Dear Friend,
A little birdie came to visit me today. He flew in the window when I opened it to let in a breeze. I wanted him to leave, he came closer instead. He landed on my finger, and said not a word. He seemed tired, so tired of life and the things he had seen.
I wanted to set him free, I wanted him to fly away and find a different life, one with happiness and joy. His sorrow was too much to bear for his little heart, he sat on the counter and looked at me.
I wonder if he wanted to tell me something, something I needed to hear. I wonder if he lost his way, and was resting before trying again. Where were his friends, what did he need? I stood by feeling helpless, then this little birdie became my friend.
A little birdie came to visit me today. Then, he flew away.
