Dock

I had a vision of us
Sitting together on a dock
Our souls in conversation
Relaxing in Adirondack chairs

I saw us laughing and splashing in the water
Ducking below the surface
Chasing each other underwater
The ends of my wet hair splashing your face

I could see the little droplets
And feel the chill as I came up for air
Your voice ringing out over the water
Carefree and joyful.

I peeked at us soaking up the sun
And listening to music on a boat
Drinking glasses of red wine
And holding each other tight

A perfect picture of us by the fire that night
Roasting sticky mashmallows
That you smeared all over my mouth
An excuse to playfully lick them off
Culminating in a passionate kiss.

There's a vivid image of our bodies
Intertwined in a warm blanket
Watching the sun go down over the water
As we whisper our deepest desires,
Our darkest fears, and our most heartfelt secrets.

Each a more beautiful sight than the last
Each enough to inspire a lifetime
Of joy, and tears, peace and thrill
This is what I see for us.

When you get stuck

Sometimes you can get stuck in a relationship: You're in a constant state of trigger (fight/ flight/ freeze) instead of feeling intimately connected You've become two old stories instead of two open hearts You're scared or angry most of the time instead of feeling free and authentic It's heavy and complicated instead of light and playful  There is more effort placed on control and strategy than growth and gratitude You are there because of a commitment, because you feel you “should”, not because you want to be.  What can you do? You basically have 3 options: 1. Stay . Continue the slow, painful process of losing yourself in order to keep the relationship. 2. Let it go . Sacrifice your relationship to save your soul. 3. Change . You both have to be willing and capable of growing together. The goal here is to see if you can get back to love without sacrificing your authentic selves in the process. To do this, you must remove the idea of promises, attachment...

Courage is not the absence of fear

"Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear." -George Addair Wholeheartedly believe this. We have two choices in life: be led by fear, or lead with love and courage, trusting that things will unfold and work out just as they should. Maybe not how you planned, but always for the best. Fears will never disappear. But when you make peace with your fears, possibilities will appear. The next time you feel fear, just take the superhero stance! (And do some yoga to quiet the mind.)

Dream

Would you mind dreaming with me a little while longer Because I'm not finished with you yet You tell me not to remember But I don't want to forget It may not be perfect, nor am I, neither are you But you bring me something I can hold on to It helps me surrender It helps me advance And most of all, you already know, It makes my soul dance.
