Let us remember we all have only … Continue reading The Heart

I want to make clear that my blog’s purpose is to present positive and inspiring poetry and art. That is my goal all the time. But today I hate the idea that I have to address the crazy hate manifested in the attacks on places of worship. Enough is enough.

Ever since I became a grandmother all I think about is my grandchildren’s future and if life will be good for them.

A shrinking feeling overwhelms me; the giant issues that surround the world suffocate and diminish my spirit slowly. Will we survive? Will this craziness pass? Will we ever find the door that leads to the garden of love and peace?

“A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than knowledge that is Idle.” -Kahlil Gibran Way too many of us have acted on the knowledge we have acquired in our lives.

It seems that even Mother nature insists on teaching us some valuable … Continue reading Quote

Out of no where I began humming “One Moment Time”, a song made popular by the late Whitney Houston during the 1988 Summer Olympics. It dawned on me that I was going back to a special one moment that was and has been very meaningful to me. It was the song chosen by my students to sing at their high school graduation. I was … Continue reading More On Mindfulness
Sometimes I go to my favorite place; silently and all alone. no fancy name given no signs to direct me there no houses, no people simply a natural space in which to roam. If ever you should need to go there I will gladly show you the way but there is one thing I must say all you really need is to close your … Continue reading The Landscapes of My Mind
Meditation brings us closer to the silence we all need right now the more silent and still the more awareness grows like wild ferns in the deep forest. Peace evolves from within: the soul develops hardy muscles to keep depression out; like a great cyclone fence it protects, but still lets the sun rays dance around you. Meditation energizes; it brings back the pep … Continue reading On Meditation
My brother passed away 21 years ago to the day and just two days before his passing we had a very long telephone conversation. I did not know it then but he was saying goodbye. We talked about everything. The one thing that still resonates is what he said a few minutes before we finished our long talk, “You only live once kiddo.” I am … Continue reading “You Only Live Once Kiddo”
