NOURISHed by LIFE!


 

The SIMPLE things

In LIFE

NOURISH US

Profoundly

So often

We overlook

The CARE

Of our Soul

So Sacred

LONGing

To take US

BEYOND

Our wildest

DREAMS

Into

Our Truest Self

Right here

Touching

The ABUNDANCE

Within US

Ever-springing

LONGing

To stroll down the street

Breathing in the crisp air

Soaking up the lights wrapped around the trees

Communing with the moon & stars

ALL of the skies

URGing us

To slow down

Pause

Take a moment

REMEMBER!

Water the seeds of PROMISE

Within US

Ever-blossoming

GLORIOUS beyond measure

 Let the SUN shower our face

Infusing us with its mystical rays

Of HOPE

Of FIRE

LISTENING to Music

That takes

Into the depths of US

Metal

Classical

Rock

Country

Blues

Folk

It matters NOT

What we call it

It only matters

That we tune IN

To the CALL

What we NEED

Moment

By

Moment

Day

By

Day

What feeds US

CRAVing

LIFE

MORE Life

Through

Homemade soups

Simmering on the stove

Welcoming us HOME

A hot bath with scented salts

INVITing us

To soak

Be

Surrender

Let go of all the residue

REMEMBER!

Day dreaming

FLOWING

Along with the clouds

Blowing by

Ushering us into

What’s NEXT?!

Our Truest Life

Our depth of Self

Ever-calling

FEELING

The breezes

Washing through us

Cleansing

Clearing

FREEing

All that BLOCKS

Us

The Blessedness

The JOY

The LOVE

The GRACE

The PASSION

EVER-Flowing

Riding

The waves

Invisible

Yet

Palpable

ENERGY

Vibrating through

PRESENCE

Bursting

The TRUEST

SMILE

From within

That says

THANK YOU

With ALL of us

Beaming

Oh so

BRILLIANTly

MAGNIFICENTly

LOVEly

In Harmony

We dance

Our DANCE

Gently

Poetically

With the Universe

Right here

Right now

In this moment

SO ALIVE

In the Stillness

In the Play

BLISS

HAPPY

 For no reason

AND

A million reasons

Starting with the privilege

To be who we are

The GIFT

FULLY aware

LIVING the DREAM Awake

We NOURISH all

Hand in Hand

Heart to Heart

Soul to Soul

WE RISE

Again

And

Again

To HEIGHTS

Yet to be KNOWN.

 
Each of us truly as unique as the snowflakes falling from the skies is a divine expressions, a soul in this body here on this human journey to love, to free the passion in the joy of living, to experience this dream awake tasting the abundance ever-springing that is us, that is all life right here, right now.  Nourishing our Self, honoring our sacred longings, caring for our soul is essential to creating a life that leaves us saying Thank you! all day long for the privilege to be alive, to be who we are.

The simplest things like pausing to day dream or listening to music that gets speaks to us or putting our face in the sunshine or feeling the cool breeze blow through us or making a pot of your favorite soup or baking a batch of cookies and eating too many or soaking in a bath tub filled with your favorite salts can absolutely remind us of the beauty of this life.  Nourishing our Self, knowing what we need, tuning in – not overriding the longings, the desires that nudge and tug at us, we nourish all.  We are in this together!  Your happy is my happy.  My happy is your happy.  We are ever-connected hand in hand, heart to heart, soul to soul.  

Energy doesn’t lie.  When we strip our joy in living by overdoing, over-committing, over-obligating, making everyone else’s needs a priority – ignoring our Self, dismissing our Self, checking OUT completely, disconnecting, riding the crazy train day in and day out, life becomes stale, flat, dull and exhausting.  Plugged in to our Self, knowing what we need, we free the passion and this energy takes those we love, those we share this journey with along for the ride.

The invitation this day is to take your Self by the hand and promise to nourish your Self, to care for your soul by weaving life’s simple pleasures into your long to do list especially 2 days before Christmas.  We are here to experience life, to taste the sweetness of this magnificent gift and have FUN.  Anything less leaves us starved – hungry for a life that nourishes the depths of us that came here to live an adventure NOT just get shit done.  Whatever you need to do to free your love, your peace, your joy, do it!  Listen.  Pull out paper plates instead the freakin’ china and silver.  Serve everyone buffet style instead of trying to time a sit-down meal.  Buy pre-made rolls, cakes, whatever you can instead of stressing over the time to bake it all from scratch.  Make life easy on your Self.  Go ahead!  Free your Self through the choices you make moment by moment.  Give the gift of your happy Self, your light heart to those you LOVE – laughing all the way (Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!)…making spirits BRIGHT…what FUN it is to ride (this life) and sing (your truest song!)…JINGLE (your inner) BELLS! JINGLE BELLS (it feels damn good)!  JINGLE all the way (all damn day)! YEAJ!!!
