When you do things from your soul,
you feel a river moving in you,
a joy...

"I the Woman"
Sandra Cisneros

I
am she
of your stories
the notorious
one
leg wrapped
around
the door
bare heart
sticking
like a burr
the fault
the back street
the weakness
that's me

I'm
the Thursday
night
the poor
excuse
I am she
I'm dark
in the veins
I'm
intoxicant
I'm hip
and good skin
brass
and sharp tooth
hard lip pushed
against
the air
I'm lightbeam
no stopping me

I am
your temporary
thing
your own
mad
dancing
I am
a live
wildness
left
behind
one earring
in the car
a finger-
print
on skin
the black smoke
in your
clothes
and in
your
mouth

"I wasn't going to be one of those
people who died wondering what if?
I would keep putting my dreams to
the test - even though it meant living
with uncertainty and fear of failure.
This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone
with a dream must learn to live there." - Alex Haley

“And opening my eyes I am afraid of course
to look--this inward look that society scorns--
Still I search in these woods and find nothing worse
than myself, caught between the grapes and the thorns.”

Spirit Dancer · 12-30-2010, 07:25 PM

Begin and end each day with an expression of gratitude and thanksgiving. Every morning when you awake you have been given the gift of a sunrise and twenty-four hours to live. This is a precious gift. You have the wonderful opportunity to take this day and live joyously, with appreciation for everything that you encounter. Take a deep breath and be grateful for this exhilarating experience of breathing in life and love. Similarly, end your day with an expression of love, and a repetition of the word for peace, “Shalom.”

Wayne Dyer

Miss Scarlett · 12-31-2010, 05:56 AM

In an email this morning from an old and dear friend:

As we continue our journey of letting-go, let us also bring back to Mind of what has really given us peace and added to our happiness this past year. Let us embrace the "beauty" and "unique expressions" of all of humanity. As we do this let us embrace the Powerful Knowingness of "Our Oneness" with All now and forevermore.

Spirit Dancer · 12-31-2010, 07:22 AM

Then sing, young hearts that are full of cheer,
With never a thought of sorrow;
The old goes out, but the glad young year
Comes merrily in tomorrow.

Emily Miller

Spirit Dancer · 12-31-2010, 07:23 AM

New Year's Eve is like every
other night; there is no pause
in the march of the universe,
no breathless moment of
silence among created things
that the passage of another
twelve months may be noted;
and yet no person has quite
the same thoughts this evening
as those that come with the
coming of darkness on other nights.

Hamilton Wright Mabie
