The truest of loves is between parent and child.

acceptance and vulnerability

I'm learning about people. The blinders are off and I can see their inner strength and level of commitment to themselves, others and me. Some are really there. Some are not. Speaking of strength, I wonder what it will be like for me to relinquish a little for love. I think about when I meet that special person one day with whom I can be truly vulnerable. I wonder and contemplate how marvelous it will feel.

Smelling the fresh green space

Today I spent time in the plush greenery of an urban ecology center near a rushing river, pulling mustard plants and taking in the serenity. As the rain began to fall and thunder roared above me, I appreciated the timing of this day with the monumental change about to take place in my life. Pulling the weeds makes room for new growth, new beauty, or simply creates open space to breathe easier. And I thought, "these little moments have such amazing timing."

I want to be

There was a dark shadow
hanging over me
an ominous atmosphere
like noir during a full moon eclipse
dark, bold, urgent
but it's clearing and
blue sky is on the horizon
I am letting in your light
creative dream wish with
soft voice
the one that says I am enough, special
the one that some how says
everything
will be all right

cold cold water...bring me round (Strawberry Swing, Coldplay)

craving to dance

Mmmm this song makes me want to
