The Magic of Connection

#6 - May 2024

Hello Friends & Family!

Hope you are happy and well!

Here things have continued to move at a relaxed pace.

I've been on retreat in Ireland. You can see the beautiful countryside of Tipperary above! The cows grazed all day, happily, sometimes they even ran down the slope of the field, frisky and bright! Amazing to see! In the photo they're off to be milked. One cow decides to be the leader and the rest follow diligently. Also incredible to see.

At the moment, I'm letting everything flow as it wishes, which is nice and slow. Seeds are being sown in the Creative Heart, and I can share a little about that below. June brings movement and sharing in person. I'll give you some information about that, too.

It's also been a time of meeting with old friends and making new ones.

So grateful for that!!

 

A Poem For YOU:

Glowing with Gratitude

(Written in 2018 and wanted to be shared with you today)

There's a Golden Sparkling Light

A Goldness

That warms

The Truth

Into Glittering Recognition

The Truth

is a Truth

That never leaves

That's always here

Inside

Outside

No side

All sides

Warming

Compassionate

Ever Bright

Though

Sometimes

Hiding

Unaware

By reading these words

It sparks and ignites

A Warm Shimmer of Curiosity and Love

Excited to be seen

To be heard

To be read

 

The Goldness 

Is always here

Holding hands

With YOU

Its Compassionate Glow

Warms the coldest of despairs 

For it never abandons 

Its Children 

The Children of the One Light 

 

No need to cross any bridge

No need to go through any more lessons

No more challenges are needed

No more steps to be taken

 

The Warm Golden Glow 

Is 

YOU

More Poetry

Sharing the Seeds: We'll see what takes hold!

  • Creativity & Silence Meetings: Looks like they might happen on Zoom as there is interest from friends in Europe. Was considering a Thursday morning (PST) which is Thursday evening in Europe, perhaps once a month... If you are interested, too, let me know!

  • New book: The Essence of ASAIRA.(possible title!) The idea is to share the poems/messages from the elemental beings and illustrations from The Six Knowings of ASAIRA in a special, smaller edition.

  • Digital edition for The Six Knowings of ASAIRA: Because of the complex page format, the digital edition wasn't straightforward when I published. Will research again.

  • Short Stories: I have some short stories that are about healing and finding one's True Self. Feeling to share them soon.

  • More Audio Poems and Digital Storytelling: I'd love to do more of this!

These are three events I'll be participating in, although I'm waiting for a final confirmation for the second one, Writers in Our Midst. I may send out a special email with more information in June.
