BioAloha and welcome! Today I am 39 years old, a seasoned (as in spicy, not wizened) midwife, mother of three highly inspiring, sparkly increda-kids, partner to one very special human being who never fails to make me gasp, creative money manager, and lush-organic-Eden gardener.
Your silence will not protect you.
~Audre Lourde
Inside my empty bottle
I was constructing a lighthouse
While all the others
Were making ships
~Charles Simic
I want God, I want poetry,
I want danger, I want freedom,
I want goodness, I want sin
~Aldous Huxley
We waste time looking for the perfect lover instead of creating the perfect love.
~Tom Robbins
When soul rises into lips,
You feel the kiss you've wanted.
~Rumi
Using words to describe magic is like using a screwdriver to cut roast beef.
~Tom Robbins
And the time came when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
~Anais Nin
Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.
~Tom Robbins
You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf.
~Jon Kabat-Zinn
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
.....
i fear no fate
for you are my fate
