like a little lavender would ya?

lilac and lavender
crystal clear but not known from within
these days of endless murky meanderings
need intuitive takes
musings and moderation

Ganesh is the lord of obstacles
may he creates highways and byways where none seem to exist
the clutter and clash of conscientious concern
is only bringing tattered messages my way

this bag seems to have shards of crystalline creation springing to life
third eye clarity
comfort benign

message for the blogosphere:

fight for fairness, don't deny your generous heart to shine, even when you feel as if the times necessitate hoarding and hesitation. if we all let forth our hand to feed the souls of ourselves and others, this mess wouldn't be looking so big

it's about making me happy

all of these photos were taken within the last 24 hours
they are making me happy
the might appear elsewhere
but only here do them hum together
in this twirl of color and content
only here do they speak directly to you
from me

i have a message for you and me
and this is for our wily feminine sides
the part of us that knows what to do
and when to do it
and you all do

there is a scent in the air
clean inhalations after a storm
telling of treasures and milky ways
tread stalwartly
grasping your need to invest in future tidings
and fortunes your core is cognizant of seeing
corner of the eye, napping while
storing up acorns
golden

when you need to be sweet on yourself

i am feeling a little down
a little frosting pick-me-up will do
let the frosting be blue and not you, i said
the dog ate the crumbs as if i never bothered to feed him at all
he is scandalous that way
so willful
until you mention sugary carbs
then you have a slobbering love slave - for a grand moment, anyways

where is that reward on best intentions
fine scheming
and many plates twirling in place?
i would honor a sound blessing today with open arms
and a full heart
sigh

Message for the Blogosphere:

Maybe recognition is just around the corner, the laurel wreath being prepared for your honest and hardworking brow even as we share this moment in time together. You are the holder of horizons seen best through furrowed face and diligent heart. Do not despair, do not give way. Today, you are seen and your honor redeemed. Fly free and know that you efforts will not go unnoticed. It has begun, it has begun...

wonder and wander

my toes need contact with coolness sometime within each day
let's me ground and feel like i am one with the ripple and wave
relief in the most basic of ways

a tea kettle in every port - that would be me
i am waving hello to all of you
can you see?

i would invite you 'round
if you were anywhere close to town
cheapest little eatery with a view
on the lake near my dear home
is this not a great spot to loiter?

Message for the Blogosphere:

You are all in command of your own little ship, even if you feel lost at sea. Invest in yourself, it's a guaranteed return and for once, you will feel, like the worthiest of all your projects and endeavors - yourself.

Better horizons

Bring it

That is what my friend GarBear always says when I get cheeky/sassy with him, make silly idle threats, go off wacky and giggle wildly to myself (hey - sometimes I am the only one who gets the joke!)

Message to the Blogosphere:

Just do it - even if you are unsure, haven't a clue where the whole gosh darn thing is off to - just do it. It can't be any worse than sitting around not being as happy as you could be but playing it all together too safe. Safe can be overrated. Hell, even mildly dangerous. Take a little walk on the wild side.


This week, the glass is half full.

99 different postures and poses

uuuwoooaaooww eeehhheeee ouu oooohhh

I am teetering, tottering near falling on the brink of 100 posts on the madlycreative blog.

Oh me Oh myo

Let me catch my breathe - right my balance, find a word to squeak.

I have begun to enjoy this journey more than I can express - as I throw caution aside and the entire kitchen sink in
I want to leave nothing out - yet, how to let it all cohesively in?
The amalgamation of many disparate parts (forgive me if I repeat myself, that seems to be a duplicate piece that always wants center stage - again)
I am too many to hide away, to few good bits not to share at least a few times over


Message to the Blogosphere:

We are family, all of my sisters and me (hey! it's a singalong).
Share the smiles, make them last many miles and go to sleep with a phone call made and a silly handwritten card mailed. Let no happy stone to share go unturned. Rejoice in the chance to dance in the car with the music blaring. Paint your toenails the color of your heart.Surprise your Mom, wherever she may be.


For one happily inclined soul - Me, you, Reiki and your heart chakra. I, Reiki Master and Channel will send you the universal energy of light to the place where the beat of your emotions resides. Leave a comment, leave a link if need be, and we will go from there. Why wait till 100 posts? Those of you who are interested, include the word HEART in your comment. One more heart I get to touch - yeah, now that's what I call livin'

being in the flow

Sometimes you soooo want to already be there, that you are passing over the very process that you need to take, to be engaged in. Like trying on the shoes and running too fast, when you are just really learning how to walk properly. Transformation is a buggerboo.

The color green signifies growth - growth of all kinds. At times we can envy another, try to fit ourselves into their backpocket way of thinking, hoping that it will somehow mold to our needs, that we will just seamlessly blend in. Playing hopscotch with our own pattern of being, and missing a few steps.

We might need a break is all. A moment to breathe in, stretch out the creaky cracks in our necks and bend a look at our belly button. Find our inner gummy bear and say "hey". Let go of some of the plans, and let a little life happen. Okay, maybe another breath and then we'll do that last little bit.

I am trying to find my dancing self again. Salsa in the Summer - my at home dance studio. Brings a silly smile, let's me pretend I can sing in Spanish (which is absolutely not true!), loosens far more than just my body parts.

Message for the Blogosphere:
We are more than just the sum of our parts. We are working warriors with deep causes, and we toil but we are so much more than our labors. Be strong, see the larger lines of life connectivity and give yourself the little breaks to let the sunshine in. You are worthy.

The end of the blues

No one is an island, but sometimes, it feels like maybe you should be - just a little. Otherwise, you might never figure out who you really are. So, I am just about past the longest blue period of my life. But I am not quite out of the water yet - so I am feeling a bit of the blues.

I don't have any noticeable cracks in me, but I need to make sure that I am still completely serviceable - so I better get out the Crazy Glue and go over all of the all of my creases.

There was never a better time for something delightful than now, but as I am still on the ole cleansing and diet ways, I will merely take the delightful photos of the cupcakes and we can all imagine together how cakey gratifying these frosting morsels would be - hmmmmmm.

This dog loves the yarny bits, just like his owner, just like myself. I must return to my yarny roots soon! They are calling me - that will definitely help with the Blues.

Message to the Blogosphere:
Now is not the time to push your limits and run out of fuel. If you fill in just enough, the vehicle will keep going. If you give all you got, you will both stall on the side of the proverbial road.
Tread lightly, even things out, try to be fair - mostly with yourself. But give enough - you know that this is not about being stingy, it's about giving enough out to color the whole picture and not just one little unseen corner.
Hugs
