With a steaming mug of hot herbs, in my quiet enclave it is wisdom I seek.
Love can never be lost in translation.
Of course y’all know this!
My quiet enclave has become un-quiet with the sounds of our newest family member.
The heart looks past the rough exterior, the bloody outer form, with red splotches of pimply rashes, various swollen body parts and a light gold yellow skin. I find myself again expressing…..

With a steaming mug of hot lemon water near my yoga mat, it is flexibility I seek.
To flex or not to flex is not the question, for to flex is to “be” on the one hand, yet on the other hand to “be” is steady like a rock.
Of course y’all know this!
Being flexible is the game, and the name of this game is juggling. Years ago my mom and I, in…..

With a steaming mug of Irish tea in my cozy cogitative corner it is understanding I seek.
It has been said “You will become what you think”,
Of course y’all know this!
When my children were born I was determined to not only speak and surround them with words of love and strength, morning, noon, and night, I also wanted them to know that they needed to be responsible and carefully choose their own…..

Let’s Dance
Now would be a good time to flex your mind, body and soul, so why wait? When you flex the body, you engage the mind and stir the soul.
Of course y’all know this!
Just saying the word “dance” can bring a smiling contented sigh. You do not have to be good at dancing and…..
HIP SPIRIT: January 3, 2016 With a steaming mug of hot herbs in my quiet enclave, it is wisdom I seek. 2015, Buckets of Tears Year Of course y’all know this! In 2015 I cried tears for the thousands of fellow humans who died in Mother Nature’s disasters. Tears for Nepal, the Philippines, Texas, for all those who had too much water and those who didn’t have enough. Tears for tragedies:for all the deaths due to the rationalized use of…..

With a steaming mug of hot herbs in my quiet enclave, it is wisdom I seek.
Maybe to be “wise”, we have to think “wise” thoughts.
Of course y’all know this!
So what be these wise thoughts? In my book “Clan of Hearts” p.107, the poem, “What?” explores possible ways to think “wise” thoughts.
What if the wisest word in the whole universe is love?
Then if my logic serves me correctly, if I want…..

With a steaming mug of hot Irish tea, in my cozy cogitative corner, it is understanding I seek.
A library, private or public, is a mighty fine keeper of knowledge. Of course y’all know this!
How fortunate we are to live when collecting knowledge (books) is so affordable. Being avid readers, my family had amassed such a large amount of books that (again) last summer we had to make a donation of 13+ boxes of…..
Look for the Clan of Hearts short film and listen for the Clan of Hearts short film’s original song, coming soon.
After a lifetime of efforts to continually improve my body, mind, and soul, I feel fortunate to have discovered so many souls dedicated to enhancing the welfare of mankind through great ideas, beautiful works in the arts that includes music, paintings, sculptures, movies, theatre, that stirs our soul… and dance that enlivens our body… and writings, poetry that moves our spirit… and architecture, photography that awes the mind.
How wonderful this ennoblement of humanity, for all the world is blessed…..
