loyalty heart healing
I am compassionate. I allow my heart and imagination to embrace the difficulties and concerns of others. While maintaining my own balance, I find it within myself to extend sympathy, attention, and support. When they are grieved, I listen with openness and gentle strength. I offer loyalty, friendship, and human understanding. Without undermining or enabling, I aid and assist others to find their strength. I allow the healing power of the Universe to flow through me, soothing the hearts and feelings of those I encounter.
holiday disruption tempo
As a writer, I find holidays often disturbing, not liberating, in their disruption of tempo, their open-ended time.
kids trying rotten
Try approving of yourself just as you are, and spoiling yourself rotten with small kid's pleasures.
motivational recovery new-beginnings
Wherever you are is always the right place. There is never a need to fix anything, to hitch up the bootstraps of the soul and start at some higher place. Start right where you are.
land promised-land new-frontiers
You are your own Promised Land, your own new frontier.
art block needs
The need to be a great artist makes it hard to be an artist. The need to produce a great work of art makes it hard to produce any art at all. . . Fear is what blocks an artist. The fear of not being good enough. The fear of not finishing. The fear of failure and of success. The fear of beginning at all.
thinking mastery mystery
Do what intrigues you, explore what interests you; think mystery, not mastery.

As we move toward our dreams, we move toward our divinity.

Pray to catch the bus, then run as fast as you can.

stars heart journey
Walk with me to the edge of the city, / Take off your shoes and feel the earth. / Remember who you are. You are a star. / A mountain, that fountain in the sun. / Your heart is the velvet cave / Where birds sing.
strong thinking giving
We tend to think being hard on ourselves will make us strong. But it is cherishing ourselves that gives us strength
love-is optimism pace
If we lean into what we love instead of soldiering toward what we 'should,' our pace quickens, our energy rises, optimism sets in. What we love is nutritious for us.
love acceptance self
The face of love is variable. I am able to love without demanding that my relationships assume the structures and forms I might choose for them. My love is fluid, flexible, committed, creative. My love allows people and events to unfold as they need. My love is not controlling. It does not dictate or demand. My love allows those I love the freedom to assume the forms most true to them. I release all those I love from my preconceptions of their path. I allow them the dignity of self-definition while I offer them a constant love that is every variable in shape.
