Smiles



i Love smiles. they are so simple and yet hold so much power. it amazes me that we can feel distances away from one another while we're right beside each other, in the same space & Moment. a smile seems to create an invisible spiritual bridge that stretches distance between our souls, reminding us that we are not so far away from each other. Reminding us that we are not as far away from Love, compassion and affection as we may think in our routine-driven lives.

you can literally see the transformation in that Moment you smile at someone who has a straight or serious face...it's like...their whole inner selves are lit on fire. you can see the warmth begin to flicker in the bellies of their souls, and there...they are, smiling back at you. it's almost irresistible to not smile back when so much joy and Peace are radiating your way through another Being. those Moments are the Moments i see Love in full force, because it is so simple, yet when you stop to think about it, not only can you realize & see the magic but you can literally feel it inside of you, from experiencing that exact same situation.

energy is contagious...so naturally, smiles & happiness would be included in that. i like affecting people in that way...Moments of shortly exchanged smiles between strangers. Real genuine smiles...just for the sake of smiling; the sake of community; the sake of each other. It fascinates me how magical Life can be when we take the time to look.

Moonlight connections



The Moon and I have this special connection... it's pure magic. it's a silent relationship, but intimate. I feel like she talks to me all of the time. we all have that "thing" that we can see that gives us clarity...Peace of mind, that reminds us of our Divinity, the Moon is mine.

I have theories. None are facts, just thoughts that pop in my head. I may have heard some of these ideas from other people, but the Moon and Women have that special connection already with our 28 day cycles. We light up the sky even in the darkness. The Stars are like the children we Birth out of our Wombs...

And I, am a Cancer which is said to have a special connection to the Moon as well. But it seems even more special. Many nights I have stayed up and stared at the Moon out of the window in my room, just gazing at the Beauty and Power she holds...

It's inspirational and makes me feel invincible yet humble all at the same time. She influences the ocean and leaves us in awe every night. There, every day for us, faithfully. Full of LOVE.

You: Part Two

if i could talk to you every Moment of every day
hold you while i tell you what you mean to me
my Life would be pure Heaven

i know i insist on thanking You
and i know sometimes it may be too much for You
but take this Moment again
and know
You are a blessing

i wish these words could make a model of You
so the readers scanning these lines
could feel me
could feel You
when i say how amazing You are

things i say to You sound like metaphors
but when i think of them
when they are birthed in my mind i mean them literally
there's no figurative language when i am describing aspects of You

if i say you are made of magic
You Are
literally you ARE magic
when i tell You
You take away the pain
You literally
remove all suffering from inside of my Mind
where it starts
as if it never existed

pain?
what's that?

when i tell You that You are my Life
my World
my Everything
i literally mean that when i go throughout the day
every single aspect of Life reminds me of You
there is a piece of You somewhere interwoven into the tapestry of Life
it does not matter if what i see is a good situation
or bad situation
it is still You

the other day i saw a girl with some fellow who was quite rude
pushed her up against the wall
i think he wanted to put his hands on her too
and yet, i thought of You

Now you may seem somewhat confused or even offended
as to how something so terrible
a childhood nightmare could remind me
of You
a King

but see, let me explain
when i see terror in Life, i think about You
how that would never be me
or what your reaction to something like that would Be
if You were to see
i think about days of tearful situations
when you're there holding me
comforting me in your arms
in a room of darkness and salty drops cascading down my cheeks
you take your hands and give your Loving energy to me
wipe away the tears away for me
even typing this i can feel them welling up
from the passion rising up within me when i think about how amazing You are

Thankful to have someone willing to Love me as You do
thankful to experience every ounce of You

if i get clingy, baby i hope You understand
it's out of Love
i'm just wrapped up in You
it's hard not to be wrapped up in Truth
when you've experienced so many years of being Lied to...
even by, yourself

there i had to exhale a lot of past grief
that i almost forgot existed
because, see...with You
it's completely different
like the Universe
re-birthed me into existence
when i first connected with your energy
like i hopped on a rocket traveling light years in seconds
away
from past Lives...
with others
at that Moment i was given a completely new identity
and yet, it was still the same me
but a piece of me was reshaped
and all the other pieces didn't seem to fit the same way
it was like that was made of glass
but now im made of clay

something of the Earth, natural...not man-made
easy to shape and change
go with the flow of Life
You
are just this amazing
i could write a never ending poem about You
which is exactly what i intend to do
but that's impossible in the realm of technology
so i Live it out with You creating fantasies
in the Real world our own Spirits have made
pumping magic out of our veins
traveling on planes
to newly created possibilities
forever happy
in the Forever
of
You

New Inspiration

Lately, I've been feeling extremely inspired by Life. not just from these thoughts in my head, but from the individuals i've been blessed enough to encounter, the minds i've met with, the Art i've seen, the new music i've been hearing, the random conversations i overhear on the BART. it's all so beautiful.

people continue to talk about the world as if we live in hell and our generation is infected with the "i don't give a fuck" disease or something...but i see so much more. before i would hope, and dream about people seeing the bullshit or coming into contact with their potential, but now it's here !! i can't help but squeal in my mind and think...finally.

but even doing that, i wonder if that response is even justified. perhaps it was always there but we were too focused on the negative things to see the beauty right in between our eyes, the Power in our own two palms. Life is funny like that, how much perception can change Life from a tragedy to a comedy in a matter of seconds. in One Moment everything and i mean, everything can change.

& it has. almost every person i come into contact with is "awake" to all of the crazy limiting beliefs and systems that "rule" over us, even in my own college classes where most assume we are young and "ignorant". some have even surprised me, pleasantly, of course. it blows my mind!

all of these minds are dreaming up, passionately, ways to give a better future for the next generation and even for ourselves. Sure We can become distracted by technology, but we are the first generation to be dealing with massive amounts of information, so to be where we are, is amazing. many generations before us didn't have to decipher information from across the entire globe! we were in our communities completely ignorant of other cultures, so the only way to learn was to blindly take things from the books or people readily available to us, but now...it's different.

We have so much Power...and we're using it! We care and We Love.
I can't wait to see what the future holds, i just know it will be beautiful, all of these Dreams created by the Gods and Goddess of the world themselves.

I'm enjoying the process, I'm enjoying these magical Moments!
