Utterances of She

My womb began to stir, the familiar yet not as strong feeling of contractions held me still for a while...I groaned a little and went inside this feeling...I thought of pregnancy, orgasms, love and releasing and I began to feel the pains disappear, I also felt more releasing as my womb cleansed herself of this months worries, doubts, fears and insecurites via my cycle. I felt more contracting and life-blood leaving my womb and I released...

Writing is my passion

So I have decided that what I need to do right now is write more...I have so much to say and I have to write to keep up with all of my thoughts. I owe it to myself to use my writing as a release for all of the things that have been going on in my life...I have big plans to become a full time writer...I think I have been trying to make excuses as to why I couldn't "possibly" write full time only...I need to work, I have to have undisturbed time, I have to make dinner, I have to make a call, I have to check the status of my resume on that website...yeah that's all good, but is it really making me feel fulfilled? To an extent it is but I want to free up and be who I was called to be...I have realized that I have to be me, others may not understand my choices at the moment but that is okay because I cannot live to please others...It's time to focus on what I want to see happen in my life and believe with all my heart and soul that it will manifest...

So many thoughts

I wish I could settle on what to write about, but right now, my thoughts are scattered- like leaves blowing on a windy day...I have so much to say, where do I begin? Should this next piece have a beginning and an end? Or should I just let my thoughts roll on through, let them spill from my mind to my hand, to my fingers, to my pen...to my journal, or my notebook...

I Wonder

What draws us to books? What makes us want to read certain books? Perhaps it's the message in the book, whether it's non-fiction or fiction. The title, the cover, a picture or the subject tends to grab our attention and we feel attached to what we are reading. Perhaps the writer has wrote something so profound that we feel compelled to continue turning the pages. I feel like that when I read, like I have to keep going to see what the author is trying to convey in the book...I want my writings to reach across the boundaries of ordinary-I like extraordinary writings, poems that stay on my mind like someone I love...
There are so many books and publications on so many subjects ranging from Astrology to Zebras! How could we not want to read??!!! We could choose to go to a bookstore or library and just veg out on books and learning more about whatever we want! I guess the passion in me for reading and writing gets the best of me at times ;)...And likewise as a writer, it's a world of topics to write about; personal experiences, history, parenting, cooking, poetry, relationships, spirituality and so much more...The best thing to do is start from the heart, if we are quiet enough, we can hear the message we are supposed to share with others through our words. So, I plan to listen and write...

I feel so good when I laugh and vibe with you, watching the things that you do-on any given day that you are doing what makes you "you." The way you are lighting up as you speak, the way you act when it's just you and me...

Emotions and Evaluating

I have been doing some major "spring cleaning" in my life and I'm talking more than just clothes that I don't wear anymore. I have been in the process of letting go of old habits, mindsets and even evaluating my relationships to see if I have "outgrown" any of them...So much is going on in my life right now and I feel that if I can just free up some extra space, I can allow myself to make room for things that will begin to enrich my soul and my life undoubtedly. My emotions have not been so haywire because I am learning how to express myself in healthier ways...A book that I am just about finished reading titled: "Living Beyond Your Feelings" by Joyce Meyer has been a real anchor for me. I say that mostly because I really did have issues with how to express my emotions in a healthier way. Especially anger and sadness...which I have experienced in many ways recently. I am also learning how to forgive, not that I didn't know how to before, but I have begun to embrace it for what it is. Forgiveness is like strength to my soul and each time I forgive, I become stronger.

Ode to the moon

"I can see the full moon tonight, shining with so much intensity...forcing me to search inside my soul for answers to my innermost questions...it's energy awakens me and my very being...leading me to what I'm needing to guide me through this pivotal time when I'm so connected to the moon's fullness"...
The words in this poem are a tribute to the power of the full moon and how it impresses upon us as women. Our cycles are in sync with the moon and it's waxing and waning periods. Magnified; the moon even resembles an egg, just like the single egg we release every month during ovulation. I take time just to gaze out my window at the moon, especially when it is full, I can't help but to be mesmerized by it. How perfectly round and full the moon is, and I take time to reflect on the previous month and what guidance I may receive for the coming month.
The moon looks upon many night flowers; the night flowers see but one moon. ~ Jean Ingelow
