Stepping into the Deep...

"Humankind has not woven the web of life.
We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
All things are bound together.
All things connect."
~Chief Seattle, 1854

I have not been here much this past week

not even to come and visit you....

But you are never far away

Sometimes you dance across my heart

or whisper in my ear

Other times

I catch a glimpse of you on the trail

strolling through ancient trees

an entourage of animals

trailing behind you

while critters perch on your shoulders

and birds nest in your hair

I've seen you walk on the tree tops

and occasionally

I gotten a glimpse of you

flying with eagle, hawk and raven

and I have marveled as you swam in Mama Ocean

moving with the current

swimming with the mermaids

No...

you are never far away.  

I have decided to take the rest of the summer
 off from this space
there are other muses that are calling
and I must answer
I will be back though my lovelies
and maybe I will drop by
now and again,
into your sacred space
and see how you are...
but don't be alarmed by my silence
don't be disheveled by the stillness
that will be this space
it is where I am called to go
into the Deep
into the solitude of creativity
and relationship
During my 30 day challenge
this message returned
again and again
guiding me to this place that is
But
I could not go without letting you know
not only where I am,
but what you mean to me...
so thank you
thank you for being here
for reading my words
for witnessing
this
my journey
thank you for your open hearts
your beautiful energy
your gorgeous souls
Each of you hold a magic that is
unique to you
I have been blessed by this magic
blessed by your gifts
blessed by your journey's.

So journey on my lovelies
and wave to me on the trail
My fire is always open for more to sit by
My pack always full for the sharing
My lantern always bright...

May this season
whether you be in winter or summer
be a blessing to your soul
food for your spirit
and light in your love
I will see you soon....

Love and Light my Lovelies 
you are beautiful

"Do you thing humans were designed to live in the present or the past or the future?"
"Well, I think the most obvious answer is that we were designed to live in the present."
Relax, Mack; this is not a test, it is a conversation. You are exactly correct, by the way."
