Monday Night Poetry With the Healing Vibes of Nature

June 13 2023

It was music and poetry last night. Good times! 🖤

June 16 2023

Began the walk this morning deep in the blues. Walks, nature, and music are my go to when I’m processing sadness and hurt. I fell asleep last night to liquid love leaking from my eyes, and woke the same. I could really use a hug. Human touch from kindred spirits is something I have missed all these years.

I’m feeling better after the walk, getting sweaty, feeling the breeze against my skin, looking at the gorgeous sky, flowers, and trees, listening to some sad music, listening to some uplifting music.

I know it will return until I’m finished processing it, along with trying not to be harsh with myself. Like the ocean with her waves it seems to hit the hardest at night. Is that how it is for anyone else? Or is that just me?

Off to shower and then taking Thomas clothes shopping. Wish us luck! I have no sense of style other than black. Is it black? Yes, okay. It’s halfway to purchased. Just need to see how it looks on me. 🤣💋🖤💋🤣

Vibrant and Gorgeous Colors

Share Your Joy and Light With the Tenderness of Life

April 28 2023

Last Friday a good friend learned they’d be moving from the community.

They have such big, bright, beautiful energy. Their absence has left a hole in my heart, dimming the experience of living here.

At times, participating in life is tender. Be sure to seize those moments, surrender to them, lest they be gone in an instant. ❤️💋❤️ (Photo of the beautiful sky just now.)

Wonderful walk this morning before it gets too warm.

Something I’ve noticed after being around for half a century 😱, there are those who judge and feel threatened when others share their light and joy. And there are those who embrace it when they observe others exuding their joy, joining with them, and sharing their own joy and light. This leaves both parties feeling uplifted, ignited in some cases.

I hope more of us can learn to be the latter. ❤️❤️❤️ Imagine.

Joyful Dancing While Coming Out

Feeling so very energized, happy and joyful and wanted to capture the moment. ❤️💋❤️

April 27 2023

Fun message on my tissue box this morning. 😂😂😂 And then I went for an invigorating walk, and walk-danced to some favorite tunes, including this one. Love, love, love this song. It’s landing differently these days.💥💥💥

I got to have a quick walk yesterday. Cold, but refreshing!

Nature’s Master Class – An Hour Long Walk

February 16 2023

Just back from an hour long walk.

I had a meeting this morning. I wanted to shine my best during this meeting. It meant so much to me.

I feel like I completely flopped. My speaking didn’t flow, it was broken, at times breathless and rushed. I feel I didn’t represent myself and my abilities. I was anxious, and all this wrapped together deflated my self esteem.

I have felt lousy ever since. This gorgeous walk helped. The trees, water, sky, clouds are masters at holding space for whatever one feels.

Life has no rewind feature. However, nature sure knows how to shine when life feels paused. 💙💙💙

Wonderful Walks With Beautiful Sunsets

February 8 2023

Wonderful walk yesterday. 🤍

February 10 2023

We had a beautiful sunset a few nights ago. It’s hard to catch a photo as it changes so quickly.

February 11 2023

Another sunset a couple of nights ago. Almost missed it!

I went for a walk yesterday without a jacket. Now, it’s snowing. ❄️🫣❄️
