World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments
by Aimee Nezhukumatathil

 

This world is full of wonders.
Some manage to capture them creatively
through song, dance, words, images...this book
 
Reads like a dream
Like floating on a breeze
transporting
You there
Exotic sensual funny
 
An astonishment indeed.
 
​
…to sense their presence on this earth…
 
…to be forever altered by an invisible kiss…
 

In this world of wonders, how do your senses serve you or do you serve your senses?
How have you been altered?
How are you astonished?

​​ wild women
 
Growing up lost between the pages of books means I fed myself on fairy tales, fantasy, myth and folklore, (still do!)
Studying and reading tarot has awakened the princesses and goddesses within…
I’ve been pondering feminine archetypes and sensing my wild woman self, craving forest pilgrimages! I'll be finding my copy of Women who run with the wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes for a fresh perusal.
 
What princesses, goddesses, queens, muses, poetesses do you identify with?  Who is the wild woman within you?  Do you know her well? 
How will you rewild your spirit soul?
 
Just for fun, discover your wild self here with this quiz…
I’m a medicine woman!

A year of Loving Kindness to myself
by Bridget Lowry

 
“It is never just an ordinary day.  It is a never-before and never-again moment, a day of particles moving through space, arranging, and rearranging themselves in ways mysterious, terrifying and miraculous.”
 
 
 
Often unable to see ourselves as we truly are,
We knowingly or not, succumb to self-sabotage…
 
 
And yet, if you were to re-sculpt yourself,
Beginning with acceptance,
Taking your time,
Moving into precious posture,
Opening your arms wide to everything,
Letting yourself feel,
At ease in the flow of life,
Perfect, just so,
Having, being enough,
Appreciating, enjoying,
Who would you find?
Who might you become?

Hay(na)ku
 
Magnitudes of poetry are found in the simplest of spaces. 
While staring out the window, walking, driving, under the shower, reading a book, listening to music or washing the dishes…
if you imagine each breath poetically,
you will be breathing poetry before you know it,
because it is already there,
everywhere,
you need only feel it,
​in the simplest way you can.

    For me, it seems there is not much difference between wondering and wandering. It has always helped me  find inspiration.  Creative dabbling is good for the soul, I couldn't imagine life without it and  often surprise myself by what I come up with.
