Do people walk away from being with me having a sense that they are loved, worthy, and have much to offer?
About Me

- I'm a Cancer. I have curly hair. I practice yoga. I knit. Music is my muse. Food is my friend. I dabble in aromatherapy. I am hardly ever without a good lotion or a choice essential oil. Sometimes I cry, but I laugh mostly. Everyone should sleep on nice linens. I like people with good hearts. My favorite colour is red. Curtains dress up a room nicely. I'm an Indian Princess.

And on our way home I realize There's some kind of storm brewing in his eyes Only veiled by a thin disguise
Posted by Lady of LightSometimes at night I can feel lightness
Then I am not afraid anymore
Some actions that remain in the realm
of a different world in this universe
prompt me to discover.
Then it is clear that a discovery is at once
a wonderful thing.
I shudder to think
What life would be if we did not have the virtue of
curiosity.
Once we leave this Earth, our presence will stay
until we command it to leave.
We will keep going up until we touch down
to a sullen beat
that resides in the hearts of many.
The wild wonderful world is about to emerge
from the depths of despair.
We are never alone.
Right now I am feeling very open. Energized. My husband is a touch away and asleep beside me. I wonder what he is dreaming about.
Sometimes I sit here and write because it’s time to and then the inspiration comes. Like now, the inspiration comes, and the time is perfect.
I am inspired. By the busyness and stillness of life. I have been experiencing some very honest moments in my yoga practice lately. The yoga room is a microcosm of life. I learn so much from my practice and I love that I can still take away new ideas and feel them physically when I am connecting with myself in that room. In front of the whole world.
Isn’t it funny how we don’t want others to see us fail at something or not be perfect at something? In yoga, I fall out of my postures. I lose my balance. I get flustered. I feel light-headed. I feel imperfect. But I do not close my eyes. I look at myself in the mirror right into my eyes, I breathe. I know my breathe will save me. I do not notice the bodies around me. I am the only one here. I try again. I am not perfect, but I do not fail.
I hope that that the experience of this will humble me in the world outside the room.
When I struggle in a posture, my eyes are opened to the physical struggle. I can feel that my mind and body are not aligned. Sometimes it is utter confusion and frustration. Then I know I have to work on bringing the mind and body closer. In that moment, your breath will save you. Different postures bring different challenges for each person on any given day. And that might take a minute or it may take years. Such as life, a yoga practice is never perfect. Such as in yoga, life is about trying the right way.
When I am pushing myself in a posture and then there is that moment when the level of balance is reached, your mind and body connects and your body is release. I might feel it for only a second or two or longer. But I know it when I feel it. If I can give you a visual, it feels like opening up your arms to the world and throwing your head back looking up into the sky and letting the gentle warmth glide over you. You can’t help but smile. You are filled with joy and the beauty of your surroundings engulfs you. You welcome the surrender to it. You are free.
This time I want it all. This time I want it all. I’m showing you all the cards. Giving you all my heart.
