Can I Get A Witness?

can-i-get-a-witnessI have heard it and said it, “I just want someone there to witness my life.”
Sometimes we get lost in the idea that only one person can witness our life, that it has to be that one intimate partner that is to witness us being here in all our glory no matter how joyful or ugly it can be at times.

Look beyond that idea and consider that we share intimate parts of our life with friends and family. We have a community witnessing our life and as is the custom at the end of our life they all come together and share the person that they knew thus completing our wish of having our life witnessed in all its facets.

We are too grand and too interesting for one person to witness us, it takes a community.

Thank you to Gina Hutchings and Teri Liddle for perspective, love, and joy on my journey.

This little light of mine

love-4d41fc982e5d7_hiresHow powerful the light of one candle can be. With it, you can light a room full of candles and reveal what is within. Don’t curse your darkness, rather just light a candle and reveal that the shadows are false.

No Lessons

lessonslearnedThere are no lessons only examples. Examples are just examples with no energy until we place our own energy on them. It is how we choose to engage with them that will make them relevant or not relevant, either producing a lesson or just advancing awareness. Engage only enough to gain awareness but not to suffer.  If you can keep a neutral emotion then you can see the example for what it is and then move on having saved the lesson but gaining awareness.

Row the boat

It is not the situation that is difficult it is how you react to it.

If you go to fear, panic, and isolate then you have lost perspective and posibilities. So see the situation not as something negative but rather a puzzle to be solved and it does not have to be solved alone. Breathe, reach out and take control, we all know how to row the boat don’t do it alone.

Rage against the dying of the light of Freedom

do-not-go-gentle-into-that-good-night-rage-rage-against-the-dying-of-the-light-1Do not go gentle into that good night

Dylan Thomas, 1914 – 1953

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
