The invisible...becomes visible...

photo: FB
 I had never seen a Female Red Cardinal 
until I saw this picture on Face Book!

Why are they so hidden, I wondered?
Is it their protective role as a Mother that keeps them from 
public view? 

Somehow, seeing this soft and vibrant presence 
was like a marker of change....
Women will be hidden no longer!!
The time is now...
that
The gifts and talents of all women
of all cultures and species,
will be recognized, affirmed, welcomed and celebrated.
So that...
through a partnership of Equals
our Global family will move 
and grow in the ways of
 Peace, Love and Sustainability.

Rings of Community...

The beauty of these winding circles 
and the pattern they create together
draws my attention.
I see 
in a beautiful form
the power of Community...
Each offers the gift of themselves
that the beauty 
of the whole
will be made visible!

Is this not what is asked
of each of us as well.
To offer the gift of ourselves
that the beauty of 
the whole
is made visible....
The wholeness of 
Family....
Community..
World...
Planet....
Universe...
Without each one
there is no fullness!!

Each new Day...

Thank you Spirit of Life for each new day....
and the reminder that
"The new year (day) lies before you like a spotless tract of snow.
Be careful how you tread on it, for every mark will show!"

One Water...or Many?

Assunta M. Riley: photo
For so long
I never gave any thought
to the many names
we as humans
have given
to identify our oceans, rivers, lakes and streams.
I used to think that each was separate and individual!
And now
I wonder if that is true?
 
Are the waters of the Pacific Ocean
one and the same
as the Atlantic Ocean?
Temperatures may change...
but
aren't our oceans truly one water?
 
I thought I knew...
and now I'm not so sure.
What do you think?

What if.....

Wimp.com photo
This photo speaks to me
of two best buddies
enjoying each others
company
and warms my heart.
 
I am also challenged
by it..
because of a quote
that caught my attention
while doing some
morning reflection...
"What if we treated ourselves
as our Best Friend??"
 
What if........

You are missed....

beautifulfreepictures.com
In this New Year
may we
in the
 human family
take the time
 to see
 the
Beauty
of
Mother Earth.....
and
 come to know Her
as the
MOTHER
She Is!
 
Let Her heal you..
Calm you...
Refresh you...
Feed you...
Nurture you! 
 
How?
you might ask??
Notice Her...
Be with Her...
Play...
Sit....
Touch Her...
 
How long has it been
since you were
  outside??
Just
 enjoying the sun?
Counting the stars?
Listening to the sound of music?
sledding?
skating?
making snow balls?
Your Mother
misses you....
Isn't it time to come home?
