For the Journey ~ Stage #3 ~~~~~~ Now to Infinity

After the journey's rocky terrain petered out,
the place of emotional release and point of red-rage painting
the path began to even as the days unfolded,
the heart being held and cradled by soulful searching and
supported by kind comments of encouragement from kindred spirits.


What's left is a visual journey document,
a point of reference, notes to self,
to keep close to heart for the future fortification,
a life journal going forward...


Pages to add treasured comments, suggestions and ideas...


Pages for quotes, poetry, and pretty things...


Pages for more mystical meanderings and imagery...


I will continue to visit these pages,
add more little visual messages as the days continue,
I will book mark the stages as and when from now to infinity...

Thank you all for holding me in loving kindness through these days,
my daughter is past the worst, she/we continue to battle with mental health issues, perhaps battle is not the correct word here, perhaps just holding our hearts in love, compassion and care, perhaps just Being and acceptance, I don't really know, I don't pretend to have all the answers but what I do know is this project of pouring out the emotions in paint and sharing is part of the beautiful journey...
I am grateful. x

my dear friend,
the beauty of you and your earnest seeking makes the ocean between us an overture of love. see how it cradles you on your side, and rocks me on mine? can you feel how everything is connected and when your longing heart pauses to be restored, every ones heart is replenished? in this way station of love i cannot tell where one heart ends, or another heart begins. so profound this merging of hearts i just had to sing it to you once again.
xoxo
Beautiful Sue... I am glad the waters have calmed a bit. Crises are always such chaotic, challenging and intense times, as you know! Am glad you found ways to care for yourself and find comfort for your Soul - like going to the Ocean... And remembering that this too is just a wave upon the Greater Ocean of Life... A friend once said to me, sometimes we just have to learn how to surf. :) Hugs, C

{{ i knew it
i knew it
i knew it !!!

a journal in the making
to help forget
some things,
to help remember
other things

i knew it
& am so please
you are journal*making Together ...

now

about the Sea of Life ::
i love my ocean smooth & flat
Sometimes;
i love my ocean deep blue & choppy
Sometimes;
& how upsetting it is
to never get to pick
which is which & when
so
there
you
go ...

i almost hate to say ::
when the sea is smooth & clear
i Wait for the nor'easter
which does come
& clears
away the beach

but

oh
how i sometimes wish i had control over which came when
but
i do not
and
neither do you ...

xox,
dear sue }}

why it seems life's most heartfelt challenges are the ones that allow us to unfurl our deepest strengths, our purest moments of grace, and your strongest wills - but perhaps those are the gifts these challenges can offer? holding space for you

Haiku my Heart #42 - Shine on

t'was just a sparkle peeping through the blacks and grey it filled my whole eye .... My daughter's car stands motionless on our drive, she is in hospital with severe stress symptoms. It has been a dark week, yesterday I noticed a sparkle reflecting off of her car through my window. She's been rattling up and down the motorway for the last year everyday to the job she loves and is fighting hard to keep. The car had so many rattles, now fixed by my love, it's washed, polished and resting-up waiting for her return. For more haiku poetry Visit Recuerda mi Corazon

Haiku my Heart #49 ~ Numbers

 After yoga yesterday we discussed significant numbers, today being Friday 13th, unlucky for some they say! On the other hand the year 2012 is said to be an auspicious year, The Chinese Year of the Golden Dragon, taking place only once every 60 years .  It also happens to be a leap year so  that means the possibility of climbing my same old staircase an extra time this year! The number 300 is significant too  this being my  300th post!  whilst yesterday the 12th was my blog birthday 2 years! So what do these numbers all amount to? Can I count on them to calculate my life? Or are they just markers of time,  as illusory as my shadows? shadows behind me  light always falls to the front  illuminates now sending to  Postcards from Paradise Recuerda mi Corazon BTW this is my 49th Haiku  I'm sure this is a significant number! ;~) PS I'm really getting into this numbers thing,  apparently 7 is the perfe...
