Feed Me
I surrender to another because I want to be taken to that place where reason and thought disappears, where the world folds up flat and spins away into its own corner and there's nothing left but what I'm feeling.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -
Feed Your Body
Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
~Kahlil Gibran~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
Feed Your Heart
Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
~Mark Twain~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Where there is great love, there are always great miracles.
~Mother Teresa~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are three things that are important in human life. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. The third is to be kind.
~Henry James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Feed Your Mind
The quieter you become the more you can hear.
~Baba Ram Dass~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Out beyond the ideas of wrong doing and right doing, there is a field; I'll meet you there.
~Rumi~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
~Henry David Thoreau~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~Henry David Thoreau~ -
Feed Your Soul
Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity..
~Pema Chodron~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Joy has no cost.
~Marianne Williamson~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To know what you prefer, instead of humbly saying Amen to what the world tells you you ought to prefer, is to have kept your soul alive.
~Robert Louis Stevenson~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
Desire & Intent
I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.
~Anais Nin~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
Friendship
In the sweetness of friendship; let there be laughter and the sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed
~Kahlil Gibran~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
Love
‘A’Ole E ‘Olelo mai Ana Ke Ahi Ua Ana Ia.
Translation: The fire of Love will burn as long as it has something to feed on.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the kingdom of love there is no competition; there is no possessiveness or control. The more love you give away, the more love you will have.
~John O'Donohue~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do not seek the because - in love there is no because, no reason, no explanation, no solutions.
~Anais Nin~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is no remedy for love but to love more.
~Henry David Thoreau~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They are in each other all along.
~Rumi~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

revisiting life
This seems strangely appropriate right now as I think about life and love and leaving a space I’ve been too comfortable with for so very long… We all meet people in our lives who affect us deeply. Loving others in … Continue reading

Anticipation
Hot water streams over her head and down her back. Steam rapidly fills the small bathroom. Breathing slowly and deeply, she shakes the fog from her mind. A faint smile at the prospect, her hands slide slowly over skin now … Continue reading
