About Me:
A yearning in my heart reaches for words … as two lovers reach for each other, my unformed thoughts find expression through writing, creating beauty and simply loving. In these small things, I am forever unfolding into oneness with life.
I am a very warm, gentle, intense creative … I adore non-mainstream movies, non-fiction books, music, poetry, dance and thoughtfulness. I am a hole in the flute that life blows it's breath through. (as you are ;-) Each of us is a thread in the great tapestry of life.
A few of my current favorite quotes:
“There is only one religion, the religion of love. There is only one language, the language of the heart. There is only one race, the race of humanity.” - Sathya Sai Baba
“There are no great things we can do, only small things with great love” - Mother Theresa
“Your work is to discover your world and with all your heart and then give yourself to it.” - Buddha
“To know what you prefer instead of humbly saying Amen to what the world tells you you ought to prefer, is to have kept your soul alive.” -Robert Louis Stevenson
“To be engrossed by something outside ourselves is a powerful antidote for the rational mind, the mind that so frequently has its head up its own ass.“ - Anne Lamott
” Everything happens for me, not to me.” -Byron Katie
” When other beings, especially those who hold a grudge against you, abuse and harm you out of envy, you should not abandon them, but hold them as objects of your greatest compassion and take care of them.” -His Holiness the Dalai Lama
“Where there is love there is life.” - Mahatma Gandi
