DIVINE SPIRIT, for me, is an amazing community of friends and artists.  They are angels, mermaids, sweet souls, wise women.  There has been this outpouring of creativity between all of us, surrounding us, sustaining us and filling us; it goes so much farther beyond what any one of us could experience on our own.  We can barely contain it all among just the few of us and so we are compelled to share it will everyone; bring anyone and everyone into the community through art, meditation, creativity, and love;  and take us all beyond the limits we all put on ourselves.  I love my Divine Spirit collaborators with all my heart, and I am eager to spread the love and juiciness to all of you!

Peachy Pink Warm Fuzzies

So much love and support is surrounding me lately, I am bursting with joy and creativity.  At our Divine Spirit Circle Monday night I just felt FULL.  The air was full of light, rose essence and magic! The women in this Circle are so amazing...and I feel amazing to be part of it.  I'm feeling peachy pink and my hands smell like cinnamon...life is good!

The Hardest Thing

Heart Chakra Mandala

(soon to be a Healing Chakra Alter at shoplilygirl.com -like "Divine Spirit" on Facebook)

it's hard 

to have compassion

i think it's actually 

the hardest thing

you have to let go 

of all your basic 

human emotions

    anger

    resentment

    desire

    fear

even a sense of 

what's fair

sometimes

you can't be 

reactionary

you can't think 

of yourself

or what you're not getting

it's the purest form of love

i don't know 

if i can be that pure

but i'm trying

Full Moon in Scorpio

Flipping through my date book, the days, weeks, months are just pages.  Today is this little rectangle.  If I write, I will rapidly fill it with thought, and it will not be enough to hold everything for today, about today, this moment, the moment before or after this moment.  A moment ago I was flipping through a smaller, tide chart calendar, and noticed that the whole year, all those powerful ebbs and flows, were contained in a tiny book that can fit in a surfer's pocket.  I was looking for moon-rise/moon-set.  The moon governs the tides, so I thought I would just quickly check on when I'd be able to see tomorrow's full moon.  This little book stopped me dead in my tracks.  Flipping quickly through the months, like they have no significance, and realizing that each of them have at least 30 days and a full moon all their own.  Does it take a full moon to make me realize the passing of time and how precious each moment really is?  Yes.  Thank goodness I get a reminder every month!  I'll never look at a full moon the same way ever again.

Tutus & Love

I'm a giver.  (So sue me...no wait, ya might not wanna, cuz I'm a lawyer too.)  Pardon the interruption.  I give a lot.  I'd probably give more, but I have an editor in the house:  my husband.  Sometimes he has saved me from grief...on a rare occasion.  But he really can't stop me from being me...poor dear.  Honestly, I need to be giving...it's who I am.  But my gifts must be meaningful.  And, I have to admit, they need to be appreciated.  Most of the time they are appreciated...I think I've learned where to devote my attention.  Is that selfish? Does it defeat the act of giving?  I don't really know.  But it won't stop me.  I'm unstoppable! Especially when I'm wearing a tutu!
