Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground. - Rumi

Imagine a woman - higher thinking


I haven't posted in a month!! This month has been so crazy busy with work that I haven't had any free time to muse, ponder or hypothesize my thoughts about the world, my world, the world around me.  It has been happy, bitter sweet and filled with my desire to be the best I can, do the best I can, share the best I can.  I have been doing hot yoga.  WOW! I love it. I found this inspiration on a website about yoga and want to share it.
May the peace in me, see the peace in you.  




Imagine a Woman
Imagine a woman who believes it is right and good she is a woman. A woman who honors her experience and tells her stories. Who refuses to carry the sins of others within her body and life.
Imagine a woman who trusts and respects herself. A woman who listens to her needs. Who meets them with tenderness and grace.
Imagine a woman who has acknowledged the past's influence on the present. A woman who has walked through her past. Who has healed into the present.
Imagine a woman who authors her own life. A woman who exerts, initiates, and moves on her own behalf. Who refuses to surrender except to her truest self and wisest voice.
Imagine a woman who names her own gods. A woman who imagines the Divine in her image and likeness. Who designs a personal spirituality to inform her daily life.
Imagine a woman in love with her own body. A woman who believes her body is enough just as it is. Who celebrates her body's rhythms and cycles as an exquisite resource.
Imagine a woman who honors the body of the Goddess in her changing body. A woman who celebrates the accumulation of her years and her wisdom. Who refuses to use her precious life energy disguising the changes in her body and life.
Imagine a woman who values the woman in her life. A woman who sits in circles of women. Who is reminded of the truth about herself when she forgets.
Imagine yourself as this woman.
