  • You gave me

    your heart to love, and to protect. My constant  companion, the one I clung to above all others. You licked my tears, we walked, we ran, we snuggled, we snoozed. And I always knew that you  were the one… The chances of soulmates being slim. I felt awe and wonder in your presence, a wise,…

  • Energy

    flows between us  now. A constant stream of connection, contentment, and also delicious turbulence as we navigate the trickle, to the stream to the roaring ocean. To love is to die, in order to be reborn better, more fully  formed. More you, open wide to the discovery of self, and a  glorious other. To love…

  • Embrace

    the beauty in  the mundane, while the everyday drudge may feel overwhelming sometimes, even often. Go within and find the power to step back, to zoom out, to be. Pattern  brings power and  what  you do  consistently makes  change. The dripping tap eventually cracks the basin. It is simply a matter  of time, of pushing…

  • A friend

    once told me a story,  folklore. Of a woman who was turned into  a donkey, because  she forgot to  wear  earrings. At first I giggled, for donkeys are cute, and who wouldn’t enjoy a life of  leisure. and then I recalled that donkeys were in fact the workhorse of the day and often mistreated. And…

  • The luxury

    of true friendship is hard to  describe. It’s like the perfect sunrise and sunset, at once. It’s that  cozy sweater, after  coming in  from the cold. It’s the  smell of freshly brewed coffee and shared laughter. Mugs cupped in hand, contemplating life, while sharing joy and sorrow. It’s the  perfect dessert, after a spectacular meal.…

  • How to

    peel an onion. I suspect that the most obvious answer serves the best: carefully! To be more direct: how do you  get to know every little thing about someone who you are quite smitten with,  in two minutes? Because  yes, you’ve learned patience, of course you have, right? And you’ve  learned that there’s no such…

  • Just say no

    to hurting other humans, animals, our planet. Feel the ambient pain rising, and refuse to add to it. Open your heart and add. Add your  wonder, your greatness, your magnificence. And remember every positive contribution matters. No matter  how small. After all every butterfly wing clap adds to  the tsunami we sustain. ~Lu

  • J

    I hear that you are  blossoming. That you are waxing like the full moon. And my wish for  you  is that your heart is full  too, positively  overflowing with all the wonderous things unfolding in your  life. Samurai swords are folded from battered tempered steel, making their strength unrivaled, Dear One. I look forward to…

  • Kanvhwiya for Frank

    An old man ha! That might be  the state of your canoo, Dear One, yet it could not be further from the truth. You shine. Your glimmer. You thrum with an energy deeper than yourself. You heal. You reach, you seek to understand to grow to nurture. You are a blessing unto us all my …

  • Your name

    will  scorch my lips forever, dear one. For you are both blinding light and  despairing darkness. Your name ignites the flame inside my heart, at once consuming me fully while smouldering  in the shadows. Your name is intertwined with my destiny, which will play out long after these basic recordings cease to exist. Your name,…
