i relate to you, i see you, we talk…there is no ownership…
then years pass, people proudly own and are owned, and in there resides a resentment. why! i ask, does the seed of life grow into a tree of resentment; the tree that provides shade, love, nurturing, joy and freedom to be, becomes a prison…
keep the freedom, love without labels, without judgement, be with someone for no reason, no dramas, without the hero or the villain…when you look over a room full of people, see someone across on the other side, engrossed in conversation, you smile, eyes meet, and the hearts smile…you know that your heart has two homes….LOVE
a place to park thoughts and ideas....... the people and places.......encountered in the journey of life.

i accept myself, and I accept you, with gratitude
Gratitude…many definitions only one feeling.
How is gratitude invoked, there are many triggers that invoke this feeling, we all find reasons to appreciate or not. Expression of gratitude can be as simple as saying "thank you", to building a Taj Mahal, and all those in between ways. Sometimes acknowledging the presence of another with a look, speaks volumes…
In the North East, where I have spent most of my living years, October comes and I feel, smell and sense the changing of seasons. I like the fall season, the nip in the air is refreshing, the sunlight is still warm, the changing colors light up the world and nature paints the most beautiful hues of earth tones. I connect with the trees, they are ready to release their leaves, knowing that when spring comes, there will be new buds. The cycle of life continues.
October also brings the long weekend in Canada, a holiday where we celebrate with family and friends, as many get together for the Thanksgiving holiday. Today I find my thoughts, returning to a home where many parts of my heart reside. As I type, I am sitting in the middle of the rainforest in Costa Rica. The trees surround me, the rain falls, the birds sing their symphony…
In my heart, I give a silent "thanks", sending energy to all those hearts that have touched me...I touch you today, with an "energy hug"… of gratitude.

each moment is a life…this realization the blessing
time spent and memories saved…
the last two days spent in Toronto, reminded me once again how precious each moment of our life is…i breeze in and out of town, in and out of the life of "special people, each and every one of them" (this is a borrowed line)...doing what needs to be done, being with what is required, and absorbing the energy…
each smile touched the source of the fountain…the droplets nourishing…
Pura Vida, si y siempre...

coming home...
…to many hearts in many homes
you visiting for? hours or days?
each moment is precious…
in the pre-fix "i wish"…i sense a wish, but not of the present,
for in the present there is "no wish", there is just being…
when the present is this presence, and the joy is now…
life unfolds, with a smile, with gratitude…
the source of the fountain is found…
i am home

is life a dance...
or why is life a dance...
we know not, we think not,we say not,
why.
hear a tune, absorb the tune and invite yourself to move...
to a new tune, dance another dance,
find another partner, take another chance...
