today is this, tomorrow is that

nothing more to say or do.

what love looks like

playfully you hid from me.
all day i looked.

then i discovered i was you,

and the celebration of That began.

dream

 arousing me to awaken from my sleep, yet I never woke up.
"balance + alignment" were the words that were whispered.
energetic shift
soulful release
a gift from the night

defining do's + don'ts

what we don't do is just as important, if not most, than what we chose to do.
 ideas are abundant and inspiration is everywhere.
i  can be like the greedy girl who wants it all.
the side effect of over indulgence is indigestion.
it often looks like overwhelm, indecisiveness and a plate too full to enjoy what is in front of me.

that's when it's time to stop.
do nothing.
incubate. contemplate. clear the slate.

may day

a warning.
a wake-up call.

one is based in fear + panic.
the other is an opportunity to study. observe. practice.
there is no time when this moment is the reference point we live by.
right now, we have all the time in the world.
relax and enjoy this time. now.

rest in the breath

there is much to do.
there is so much to accomplish.

then, there is a stillness.

a place where everything that needs to happen unfolds as it should
a time when the empty space is where the gem reveals its self.
a space where doing nothing and just being is some of the best work we can do.

{sit down and be quiet.}
