One more ice storm came through Memphis a few weeks ago, everything was frozen for 2 days and lots of damage from fallen trees caused widespread power outages. Luckily my house never lost power, and I was able to enjoy the ice for its beauty. A similar ice storm happened last year around the same … Continue reading Melting Ice →

I'm glad we live in a world that has music and dance. I've collected a lot of music over the years. I came across this video from one of my playlists the other day and loved re-listening to it. I want to be one of these girls... dancing in the water. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CEnSTruBBg Don't we all … Continue reading Ancient Music →

Painting, reading, writing, singing, walking, and working - that's what I've been up to. It's been a while! The New Year was very low-key for me, I did nothing except cook a delicious dinner. I went into it so slowly, it didn't feel like much of a shift this time but here we are, it's … Continue reading Moving Through Winter →

On the night of the historic lunar eclipse, I'd set an alarm for 2:30am to wake up and go outside. When the alarm went off I woke up but didn't get out of bed - it was too warm and I knew I had to work early the next day... so I decided to go … Continue reading Eclipse Dream →

A meditation prompt I read recently was about sky gazing and connecting to the inner sky ... I thought that was so beautiful and haven't been able to get it out of my head. Every time I look up now I think about my inner sky, wanting to connect to whatever that is. Nothingness, emptiness, … Continue reading Inner Sky →

I spent the weekend in Arkansas on my friend's homestead - with my sister-in-law and 2 of my best girlfriends. We had so much fun, doing everything: walking, sunbathing, kayaking, fishing, foraging, cooking, painting, playing card games, strumming the guitar, singing, dancing, hula hooping, building a fire, listening to coyotes howling in the distance, stargazing, … Continue reading Weekend Away →

I started working at a horse stable in Collierville the other day and have really been enjoying it. Can't believe just a few weeks ago, horses kept appearing in my dreams and now I've actually found a way to be around them more often in real life. I'd subscribed to an email list for this … Continue reading Miracles and Meanings →

I went outside in the early morning to sit in the soft sunlight. The breeze made the dew drops twinkle in the grass, I watched them glisten as two small butterflies landed nearby to bask with me. I've come to the realization that I've never actually escaped my depression, or even understood it, not even … Continue reading Finding the Balance →

Clear and cool night, driving home In the passenger seat Rolling the window down Feeling my heart beat Face leaning out to the wind Cold breeze blowing though my hair Passing trees and streetlights Picking a place to stare The moon in the distance Low on the horizon Dark orange, waning gibbous Cycles ending, another … Continue reading Living in Poetry →
