Poem- I have not yet heard a bird

Reading Time: < 1 minute I have not yet heard a bird By Maria Mar   I have not yet heard a bird crying because it can’t sing. I have not yet seen a flower wilt before it blossoms from fear that its colors will not delight. I have not yet followed a scent that hid its essence in shame. I have not yet touched a stone that coiled, feeling not enough. Yet, I have heard your silence cry the truth that you betray. And I have seen your beauty wilt while you try to fix yourself. I have missed the scent of your soul from your words, your deeds, your work. And I miss the touch of your presence while you wait ‘till another day to do more and be more stealing your fragrance from the world. ——————- New York City, April 29, 2013 Send to Kindle

Gift wrapping bliss: inexpensive, beautiful, creative and fun gift wrapping ideas to stay in budget

Reading Time: 4 minutes Gift wrapping bliss: Inexpensive, beautiful, creative and fun gift wrapping ideas to stay in budget I love gift wrapping! I love to express my love for the recipient of my gift by making it look fabulous. I connect to them as I am embellishing the gift. But, frankly, sometimes I spend way too much in the wrappings. And I feel bad about the waste of paper. And I’ve heard a lot of complaints from my neighbors, friends and clients that things are not the same financially and they are stressed out. So if any of this rings true to you, here are several inexpensive, beautiful, fun and creative gift wrapping ideas to stay in budget while you experience gift wrapping bliss.   Save on Ribbons One of the ways we go overboard in the gift wrapping is on ribbons. You buy three or four different papers. Then you want different color/texture ribbons to go with them.  These ribbons can be enticing. You end up buying yards of ribbon, each from $5 to $20. That adds up!  So here’s a fun [Read more.]

Transformation-a poem

Reading Time: < 1 minute Transformation I was again crawling down into the mud, opening yet another wound in the wrinkled, earthen body. Once again I burrowed deeply, Devouring the memories, Releasing the toxins. How ordinary, lowly, disenchanting! How un-heroic, run-of-the-mill: my life. How silly to dream of blossoms in the wind and succulent clouds while stuck to the bottom of the sludge   My heart took insult drumming madly, so feverishly that for a second I did not feel the rest of my body warble into madness. Trembling frantically, I broke down. I became chaos. One by one my old cells died. I was terrified. But in the midst of my panic I became strangely calm. Then I felt elated. I enthusiastically released my old self. I made it easy on death to devour every inch of mud clinging to my being. I was humming a hymn to my death. Humming a high-pitch song. A dream of wings and blossoms. A dream of rainbow colors and eyes that flew into the light. A dream of changing winds and pollination. I became imaginal while my [Read more.]

Share your Sweet Spot!

Reading Time: 4 minutes Oh, lala! My Sweet Spot! I participate in a journal writing membership at http://journal.journalengine.com. Some time ago the facilitator, Marc Manieri, asked us to identify our Sweet Spots. As I remember, Marc defines our Sweet Spots as those organic strong places within us, those things we love and give us joy, those things we would do whether they paid us or not. I found the practice of recognizing my Sweet Spots as a great self-love and self-esteem booster, so I recommend you try it! I want to share my Sweet Spots with you today. I am an inspirer. Inspiration is my Sweet Spot. Sometimes inspiration is poetry. Written poetry. I become a mermaid and dive into the depth of existence to bring back to the surface the treasures of life. I have one book of poetry that I am preparing in English. It is called The Tao of Trees. This is about the poems and teachings given to me by the trees. When I was sick some years ago, the trees healed me and they gave me these beautiful meditations [Read more.]

Reading Time: < 1 minute Hi, beautiful sisters, In Harry Shade’s Radio Show, Rare Sense Thoughts the other day I shared my Sacred Feminine Ecstasy Tea Ceremony. This is a super serotonin, love hormone, fun and sensual treat for those special moments when you want to pamper your palate and treat yourself as royalty. Some people have asked me for the recipe again. Here it is. Ingredients: Organic chocolate bar, 85% cacao Package of blueberries, preferably organic Wild Berry Tea, preferably organic A long cinnamon stick Wash the blueberries and serve in a beautiful plate. Prepare the tea, serve on a gorgeous tea cup and place a cinnamon stick in it. No sugar! Bring your tea to a cozy place where you have the other ingredients. Slowly stir your tea with the cinnamon stick, enjoying its fragrance. Place 3 blueberries in your mouth and chew veeery slowly. When they begin to dissolve, place a tiny piece of chocolate, the size of your pinky’s fingertip, in your mouth. Feel the oh! so delicious sensation of the blueberry and the chocolate melting and blending. Now take a [Read more.]
