The Goddess

A goddess is a woman who emerges from deep within herself. She is a woman who has honestly explored her darkness and learned to celebrate her light. She is a woman who is able to fall in love with the magnificent possibilities within her. She is a woman who knows of the magic and mysterious places inside her, the sacred places that can nurture her soul and make her whole. She is a woman who radiates light. She is magnetic. She walks into a room and male and female alike feel her presence. She has power and softness at the same time. She has powerful sexual energy that's not dependent on physical looks. She has a body that she adores and it shows by the way she comfortably lives and moves in it. She cherishes beauty, light and love. She is a mother to all children. She flows with life in effortless grace. She can heal with a look or a touch of the hand. She is fiercely sensual and fearlessly erotic and engages in sex as her way to share with another in touching the divine. She is compassion and wisdom. She is seeker of Truth and cares deeply about something bigger than herself. She is a woman who knows that her purpose in life is to reach higher and rule with love. She is woman in love with love. She knows that joy is her destiny and embracing it and sharing it with others to heal wounds. She is a woman who has come to know that her partner is as tender, lost, and frightened as she has been at times. She has come to understand the scars of the boy in him and knows that together, love can be the relief, the healing of their wounds. She is a woman who can accept herself as she is. She can accept another as they are. She is able to forgive her mistakes and not feel threatened by another's even when attacked. She is a woman who can ask for help when she needs it or give help when asked. She respects boundaries, hers and others. She can see God in another's eyes. She can see God in her own. She can see God in every life situation. She is woman who takes responsibility for everything she creates in her life. She is a woman who is totally supportive and giving. She is a Goddess...

‎"Happiness at sea. The sea brings us face to face with ourselves. There are no neighbors, no others to refer to, no one to imitate, or to criticize you. Everything you do is either vitally necessary or fulfills a profound wish. My behavior is no longer conditioned by society. I become aware of my personality, discover the meaning of sincerity - being frank with oneself. Because life is so short: one musn't waste the time one is given."

~ From "Call of the Sea" by France Guillain

“The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed.”

Ernest Hemingway

“Art is not concerned merely with great artists, with genius or with prodigious skills. It is, fundamentally, the outward form of an inward search. To participate in this search, on whatever level and with whatever ability, is to be an artist.”

Say not, “I have found the truth,” but rather, “I have found a truth.” Say not, “I have found the path of the soul.” Say rather, “I have met the soul walking upon my path.” For the soul walks upon all paths. The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed. The soul unfolds itself like a lotus of countless petals. - Kahlil Gibran

Every day is special, but today was unique. The small, subtle things make the most difference. I placed a bid for a rowingboat, bought two fountainpens and closed my eyes to the round and roasted taste of coffee from Sensory Lab. I'm ready now, Norway take me home. Remembering what I came from is what keeps me sane.

You think of yourself as a citizen of the universe. You think you belong to this world of dust and matter. Out of this dust you have created a personal image, and have forgotten about the essence of your true origin

Let me be peace. For as long as the moon shall rise. For as long as the rivers shall flow. For as long as the sun will shine. For as long as the grass shall grow. Let me be peace

AS A SINGLE FOOTSTEP WILL NOT MAKE A PATH ON THE EARTH, SO A SINGLE THOUGHT WILL NOT MAKE A PATHWAY IN THE MIND. TO MAKE A DEEP PHYSICAL PATH, WE WALK AGAIN AND AGAIN. TO MAKE A DEEP MENTAL PATH, WE MUST THINK OVER AND OVER THE KIND OF THOUGHTS WE WISH TO DOMINATE OUR LIVES.Henry David Thoreau (via lifesomeday)
