Hey, my lovelies, guess what--I'm the PoW at The Skeptic's Kaddish this week. Won't you join us? We're talking Neruda. We're talking Odes: Neruda was known for his historical epics, political manifestos, and love poems. Neruda’s incisive and joyful odes were often dedicated to ordinary objects making them approachable yet surreal. I bet you have one such "thing" you appreciate... Please join us.
Sleeping in on Wednesday staying in on Friday taking breaks more often leaving your phone behind... What does self-care look like to you?
A small town raised me. That was my then; I am now living my now. Two simple happenings that are entangled. Read to find out what that feels like. xo
No words, just wonderment... "Where flowers bloom so does hope."~ Lady Bird Johnson Quote.
Bare trees wink and murmur sweet poetry to me. Do your remember this one: ... A tree that looks at God all day, And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in Summer wear A nest of robins in her hair..." Joyce Kilmer.
For the daily dose of inspiration today, the question is: What is your favorite part about yourself? The response is in the photos. Leave a comment with your answer too, please. Or a link with a photo. Thanks.

Wanted to take a shortcut and gave in to writing a quick post on my phone,but then got stuck trying to move the inscription inside the video. Darn, if Iknow…
The Cacti that blooms for only one night, and is gone before the sunlight finds her. I find this inspiring. I hope you do as well.
Sometimes when you desire it hard enough, echoes of home come in the wind, or as stowaways in the nets of fishermen. Just sayin'...
Remember when we wished a Happy New Year to each other? That was nine months ago. How time flies. For the rest of the year, I pray that we remain grounded in the lessons we’ve learned already. May we use them to the best of our capabilities so that we can continue to grow. May the rest of the year be extraordinary.
Having ordinary days. Want to reach out to you with an extraordinary piece of music that bathe me with warmth and gentle happiness today. Be well my friends.
