birthdays, birthrights, benchmarks, brouhahas

as Abraham Lincoln said - in the end, it's not the years in your life that count - it's the life in your years

celebration? confirmation? tradition? obligation?

B I R T H - the act or process of bearing or bringing forth

T R U S T

no guarantees !

we don't know if or when we can . . . . unless we take a chance -

we need to be equal parts - brave, realistic & intuitive . . . .

our reward will be priceless . . . . for better or worse

discombobulating shake-ups & brouhahas

would love to fully manifest life as a creative artist & healer in every aspect & area of my human experience & existence

gratitude

it really is true. . . .gratitude comes first. . . .& in it's wake comes joy

after months with a heavy heart, I am once again filled with joy & delight

& that has significantly lightened me up!

back from Canada

just returned from Toronto - a well needed break together with long-time friends - o JOY!

fair. . . .just. . . .true

what's the old adage? if the shoe fits, wear it

when an opinion is given it's up to me then

to accept it or not

to learn from it or not

to allow it to expand me

humility or pride

I've recently been around someone who sincerely believes that they act deliberately & with caution.

They'd be most amazed that what they see as focus & awareness is in fact pride in themselves.

Easy to point in out or see it so clearly in another - would that I saw myself with such honest clarity.

Or maybe I would rather not.
