old year's day once again...


rejoice and be merry.

giving thanks to the Most High JAH
for letting me see another day.
praying for those less fortunate 
on this beautiful and abundant earth;
that humankind shall find peace and
exhale love in every breath they take.
sending loving vibes out in the universe.
can you feel it?


be safe everyone.
one love.
selah.

ballet of angels...



i am here giving thanks and praises to the Most High JAH for life and friends like you, and the words ballet of angels came to mind.  it could be because i recently had the unique experience of enjoying the ballet in a church, or because i've been slowly sipping on a glass of this savory wine, or it could be because that is what life feels like being shared with all of you...a ballet of angels.  i guess i really have to share a little story with you so you can understand what i am talking about.

when we started our new collective random act of kindness - Selah's Angels - i only hoped that we would offer a soft touch of loving kindness to someone whose life has been touched by cancer...and then someone shared this "testimony" with me that left me completely speechless:

Her friend (let's call her Etana) is one of the recipients on our greeting cards mailing list.  These two ladies recently went to church.  When they arrive, Etana was simply beaming...no one could figure out why.  The church service soon began and Etana walked up to the mic to give a testimony before the whole entire congregation.  Before long, she was reading from an anonymous greeting card that she recently received in the mail from Selah's Angels which had an insert tucked inside with a poem about cancer.  Etana told of how she had made up her mind to just give up and was at the lowest point on her journey living with cancer when this card arrived in the mail.  She moved everyone in the church to tears as she shared how this tiny little card changed her outlook on life!

...and so i thank you all once again for allowing me to dance this ballet of angels with you.  one love, always.

friend-ship...

There are good ships,
and there are bad ships,
but the best ships are friendships.

***

There's a special kind of freedom friends enjoy.
freedom to share innermost thoughts,
to ask a favor, to show their true feelings.
The freedom simply to be themselves.

***

A friend loves at all time. (Proverbs 17:17)

I am lost in thoughts and emotions about the formation of friendship in children.  

What words of wisdom do you share with the children in your life?

practise kindness...

I've been spending a lot of time lately pondering what purpose my blog serves.  While I sat in silence contemplating, I received the most wonderful piece of mail - it was from a blogger, thanking me for providing her with a platform to spread love through the random acts of kindness we collectively perform here.  melt my heart.  I hadn't realised how many lives we touch through this little tiny blog.  So, I had to take a moment to say THANK YOU to all of you for your generous contributions, and for the peaceful, loving vibes you share with others in the world.  None of the following would be possible without you...I remain inspired.










and we are currently doing


Thanks so much for all you do!!!  one love, always.
