Apart we are
marvels of creation, together and undeniable force~
That long awaited
embrace ensured us, the world anticipates our power.
Hearts electrified
under a full moon, feel alive as the golden sun rises~
You've awakened
me; reach now for my open heart.
Start fresh~ crisp
breeze lifting us like the tide.
Never grooved this
way before, eyes fixed, peace achieved, proclaim our desires.
Only you and I
truly get us~ sway, move, vibrate~ stealing the perfect dance.

This morning as I hear
birds singing and the sun has risen once again, my thoughts have slowed down
just enough to realize the incredible gifts I have been given. I believe that
each of us have crosses to bear in our lives, some seemingly more
insurmountable than others. Wounds turned into wisdom and compassion allow us
serve the world in countless ways. I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that
in a few days I will be a full decade removed from my last drink or any other
mind altering substance. There have been some really high highs and low lows over
that span of time and above all, discovery of who I am and who I want to be. My
senses are alive and gratitude at an all-time high; I suppose I have beaten
some pretty big odds. The beauty is in the journey and accepting things that I
can’t change, finding courage to change the things I can, and seeking the
wisdom to know the difference.
I have a fierceness and
passion inside of me that yearns to create, to help others, to laugh, and to
change the world. For me, that is the treasure inside me and I want to share it
with someone just as passionate and willing to take on the world. The ultimate
goal each day is in some way make somebody’s life a little bit better. There is
always an opportunity to do this and we should make it a point to try. In
subtle ways as well as bigger ways, shed your light on someone today! A
familiar smile, a reaching hand, a song, or kind word can change a day and a
life at any moment. What was once insecurity for me is now a truth I’m confident
in; there is a “need” to be loved and understood in everyone’s life in order to
achieve their greatest freedom. Each of us has a treasure inside, dig in, find
yours and find another’s. Proclaim your desires and create the life you
imagine. Apart we are marvels of creation, together an undeniable force.
