I Am Me




I Am Me
I love deeply
I hurt easily
I am sensitive
My heart overflows
Though it
Has a wall of protection

I laugh, live, love and I hurt
Yes I am all of this.
We call it human
Balance
Fully alive
This sensitive life
It’s mine
I wonder at times
Is it yours too?
All the reactions
Instead of love and compassion

I love you
I love me
I protect
I am scared
And then
Relief
I love again
I am me

Freedom in being "homeless" though very home-full!

Dearest Ones,
How are you? I hope this finds you follwing your heart.

WOW, is the word that comes to mind. Through all the difficulty of letting go of the only place I considered home in my life….honestly, I don’t miss it, I haven’t looked back, even though I’ve been back several times. My heart and soul is free. I’m in love with life again, I’m happy.

I hear myself singing, being in joy, spending time with people I’ve never spent time with. I feel my soul sending love out to not only the planet but the whole Universe, out to as far as my soul can imagine, and then I feel it coming back to me. So I am in WOW of life.

I have moved into a home with a pool and a Jacuzzi, I’m house sitting there until June 4th and loving it. My life consists of getting up, doing my practice, feeding my kitty, now letting her outside, she LOVES being outside, even if it is concrete and a large pool of water that she can’t use for rubbing her body on….she loves it all just the same, I go out to the Jacuzzi and soak for a bit, maybe go for a swim, lay out in the sun, soak in the rays of light and relax. Or I make it a short soak and go off to work. Then in the evening I am back in the Jacuzzi, I write, I open and feel.
It’s really amazing to feel so free.

Then there is something even more exciting too, I am back dating again, it feels like it’s been so long. I was beginning to wonder what it felt like. I realized I wasn’t open to it. And now, I’ve been asked out by a few men and I asked one out….what a beautiful and sensual time we had. To be with someone with no goal but to just be present, sing, dance, massage, eat food, sing some more, touch, kiss, oh wow….what a delicious time.

I know I know, I’m getting ready for South America, but what’s the harm in having some fun and living life before taking off….and who knows maybe I will find some wondrous and fabulous being to go with me!!!!

Life is just opening, I feel so free and alive. I’m went out to a spa with girlfriends, I haven’t done that in 20 years, we got rubbed, scrubbed and soaked. I have hiking dates with friends, tea times, dinners, lunches, I went to the largest Buddhist temple in the Western hemisphere, it was beautiful. I could have sat and meditated there for days. Meditation is a craving that I am only getting to partially fulfill. I think it’s time for a vipassana. Oh to be with my own mind, my own soul and heart for days. I’m doing a lot of self hypnosis lately, it’s been so helpful.

I might be getting certified to be a hypnotherapist. It’s something that has been on my mind for a long time. I love the healing that happens from it and past life regression. It connects me to spirit so much.
I feel that the more time I spend dropping in and living from my heart that is what is important. Love, giving and receiving is the big thing that I meditate on so much these days.

I’d love to hear from you. Let me know what is making your heart happy these days? May you always know you are loved. Big hugs to you, Heather
