Reconnecting to Joy
‘All Joy comes with Pain,but the work of the Heart is to continue on,and to find the Joy amidst the Pain.Continue on,for there is Joy and Love at the Heart of Everything.‘
The Pain of Separation
There is a lesson in loss. When you see someone leave you. See them close their eyes for the last time. The delicate wisp of their Spirit rises up into the air, and you are left with the rent in your life where their beauty used to be. The shock of it leaves you numb …
Happiness
These are testing times. The pressure is mounting, and anything that doesn’t align with our bright future is being squeezed out of every single cell of our bodies as we pass through the portal of our past misdemeanours and beliefs. The separation from Source has been tough. The illusion has been so convincing, that there …
Hope
I am so very exhausted by it all. The grasping and the hoping and the clinging on. Modern life has become the endless pursuit of things you can never attain, while running for your life from imagined fears that you cannot see. The outside world has become a maelstrom of opinions, judgements, and offended feelings. …
Forgiveness
How can I forgive you for all you have done to me. How can I love you for all the terror you made me feel. How can I show compassion when you made me hate you so much. How can I thank you for taking my innocence away. My pain is real, and I have …

The Rising Sun whispers through the song of the Earth: ‘Be brave. Not with security, and stability, and permanence, but with innovation, rebellion, and imagination’. The North …
Sorrow
Sorrow prepares you for joy.It violently sweeps everything out of your house,so that new joy can find space to enter.It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart,so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place.It pulls up the rotten roots,so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow.Whatever sorrow shakes …
Love
Jaguar looks at Panther, sees power and beauty,Panther scans the jungle, feels anger and fear.Jaguar beside Panther, feels love like the ocean,Panther looks away, thinks ‘don’t leave me alone’. Jaguar sits quietly, feels his heart beating wildly,Too scared to approach, lest he scare her away.Panther is coiled, eyes flash green at the danger,Hysterical thoughts wondering …
Spring
Deep down in the earth it is ferrous, dark, and damp. Cloying soil bonded to every hair of my gnarly, twisting, entangled roots. I feel the humic crumb sticking to me, coating my skin, and blocking my airways. The winter has been long and hard. My lungs are bursting with the effort to breathe. Desperate …
