NLPD

Today, folks, is a titled day
that should be celebrated EVERY day,
but, if we are directed
and given opportunity to do something,
then let's make the absolute most of it!
Today is ...

National Love People Day!

I was showered with bliss bombs yesterday.
Gifts that have already been sent out
on the pay-it-forward highway.
It is genuinely humbling and heartwarming
to receive a blessing
when you didn't even realize
how very much you could use one.

Get out there today
(and every day)
and love some people!
Do some kindness.
Share some love.
Lend a hand.
Offer hope.

Infuse

During a little meditation this morning,
one word kept coming up ...

infuse.

Infuse your heart space
with kindness.
Infuse your hands
with helpfulness.
Infuse your arms
with comfort and compassion.
Infuse your head
with hope and positivity.
Infuse yourself
with love
and you'll be able to become
what those around you need.

or so was the basic message
that I received and am sharing.

The Light

From one Alexander Elle,
this is fantastic!

The sun will rise and set
regardless.
What we choose to do
with the light while it is here
is up to us.
Journey wisely.

Beating

I cannot take credit for this.
That belongs to Erica Layne.
But I believe it to be very true ...

It takes practice
to tune out
the loud opinions around you
and to tune in
to the quiet beating
of your own heart.

Much love, friends!

Get Out There

Hey there kids!
I'm back!

So, we celebrated what should have been our 30th anniversary,
but thanks to Covid, we celebrated our 33rd
with a Mediterranean cruise.
We truly were off the grid almost entirely
and were just able to enjoy
some extraordinary vistas, ports, and people.

To disconnect, recharge, and just unwind
was much needed and thoroughly enjoyed.
It was a long-awaited, much-deserved,
truly invigorating adventure.

Maybe you cannot go that far,
but go somewhere,
do something,
new and adventurous,
without the digital tethers
we all seem to be bound by.

Explore.
Live.
Get out there.

Look inside and live

I will be taking a brief hiatus.
I will, however, leave you with
this ...

The beauty of being lost
is the same thing
that makes it scary ...
we must look within ourselves
to find the way.

and ...
(although the first line is
definitely debatable ...
it is absolute in its entirety.)

No, we don't need more sleep.
It's our souls that are tired,
not our bodies.
We need nature. We need magic.
We need adventure. We need freedom.
We need truth. We need stillness.
We don't need more sleep.
We need to wake up and live!

Go!
Live!

Ch-Angels

I have seen
and met Angels
wearing the disguise
of ordinary people
living simple lives
doing extraordinary things
with a joy
and a gratitude
using only the gifts 
they were graced with
by God.

Thank you
for being
a part
of my journey.
