One Step at a Time
ENOUGH
We’re not one of yours, we are not who you are
Ones seeking riches, leaving trash in your wake
You get what you want, you toss it aside
Then claim that the poor take and take
I would argue it is you with your investments & gold
That take and take but remain
In the mindset of lack, in the slime of excess
Laying on the rebellious the whole of the blame
The time is now, we have come to the bend
When your money and excess breaks down
Nature is angry at those at the helm
She holds no mercy for the rich side of town.
Today is the day, now is the time
We say ENOUGH! and gracefully rise
We do no harm but take no shit
Our strength - open hearts and minds

Recalibration Moments--
Profound moment where life takes a drastic turn, we being thrust into a long anticipated life change or catapulted by circumstance into what feels like the unknown, when in actuality we are called to return to our true selves.
These monumental life changes imminently shift our energetic template, bringing flow where there was stagnation and calm where there was chaos. We being pulled towards our essential, authentic selves are thrust into a discomfort that is inevitably uncomfortable physically (why wouldn’t it be?) but on which our spirit energy thrives and expands, like a long awaited deep breath and stretch after being confined in a small space.
Shedding the old pattern we sit in the unknown, feeling ourselves in a new orbit, one more genuinely suited to who we are, invited to flow with the divine instead of resisting, retracting or recoiling due to long-held fear. It is a profound reset, with grace and daring leading us to a more joyful, less complicated way of being.

AUTUMNAL EQUINOX
This is a day of balance when light & dark are equal in length & we move towards more daily darkness than light. May this coming season be a beautiful reminder of Natures power & blessings.
Let us all remember that we are not in control and that the events occurring around us will shift and change just as the seasons do, and that the longer, lighter, bloom-filed days of Spring await us all.

“ This is land that should belong to the people, and should stay
with the people, not in the pockets of politicians
who have their short term dubious views.”
”Art & nature combined make the world a better place.”
”There are no easy answers, no clear solutions.
There’s only what each of us is willing to do.”
There’s this life to lead. Why not live it as much as you can,
as long as you can.”

Stag
His antlers reached to the sky
like antennae to the heavens,
displayed in structured yet abstract teirs,
in perfect Yin to Yang balance,
keeping him grounded in times
of battle or protection
yet connected to the moon and the state
that guided him so valiantly

Dragonflies & Hummingbirds
Dragon flies and hummingbirds flying through my view
They’re comforting & lilting, in their flights, in their hues
They tell me
“Lighten up and fly, move on to your next perch
Keep a playful eye on life but don’t give up the search.
See the beauty of the world, let compassion tag along
Enjoy each branch you sit upon it’s right where you belong”
