Hello, Belly

“I rely far more on gut instinct than researching huge amounts of statistics.”
(Richard Branson)


Hello, Belly
There you are
I lost sight of you for a moment
Got caught up outside of myself
Trying to find what was right
Working on pleasing the world
Taking everything as my own
Hello, Belly
Here I am now
Giving you a listening ear
Trusting your guidance
Coming back home
Balancing myself
On my own center
Hello, Belly
Together we journey now
Mind, heart and gut
The triangle of power
My inner sanctuary
I trust

-M.

 


Love who you are, and stay high with life.

Every Step


“The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man.”  (Euripides)

With every step
Balance
With every change
Balance
With every choice
Balance
We are always going
In and out
Of equilibrium
Life is calling
For more
There’s always more
And with every step
Balance

Follow The Grain

“Follow the grain in your own wood.” (Howard Thurman)

The joys of authenticity
Come paired with the fear
Vulnerability brings
We feel open, raw
Scared, yes
But this is the way it goes
A little bit of this
A little bit of that
And we feel our way
We follow the grain
In our own wood
Only when we embrace
All that comes
With being alive

What A World

Oh, what a world

So much to discover

So much more to create

In a beautiful planet

We are here, human

Sleeping, waking up

Always ready for more

Feeling it all, human

Laughing, crying

Playing with opposites

Opening doors, human

Saying hellos

Saying goodbyes

Feet on the earth, human

Nature all around

The balance, the Mother

Oh, what a world

So much beauty to enjoy

So much more to create

In a beautiful planet

We are together, human

Enjoying the Earth

Happy Earth Day

Love your Planet

Everyday

You Do Not Have To Choose


“Feeling at peace, however fragilely, made it easy to slip into the visionary end of the dark-sight. The rose shadows said that they loved the sun, but that they also loved the dark, where their roots grew through the lightless mystery of the earth. The roses said: You do not have to choose. ” (Robin McKinley)

A subtle balance

So refined

So mysterious 

We are a dance

Of opposites  

A subtle balance 

So perfect

So unique

Obstacles

“Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.” (Henry Ford)

You dream and you imagine
And you wake up, and sip your coffee
You go in, and you go out
And in the midst of all this balance
You stay on course, yes
You keep your thoughts on the rise, yes
The pull is strong
To persevere
To reach
Yes
