Nags Head NC ~ squam by the sea

My heart is full

and so filled up with love

I spent four marvelous days in Nags Head NC

Soaking in the magic that happens at

squam arts workshops

I was seen for who I am by others

And for the very first time truly saw myself

I am a writer, what a glorious thing to realize

Breathtaking

Beautiful

Honest

Open

Loving

Soulfull

Tender

Brave

These are just a few of the words that describe what it is like being surrounded by the most radiant women and engulfed in their love. There is something so powerful about women coming together. Souls supporting one another, truly seeing one another, and reflecting back what we see to each other. Magic. Pure love and magic.

My world is a little bit brighter these days

Beauty surrounds me

And happiness fills my heart

Thank you squamettes

For being brave

Following the bat signal

And traveling to the sea

I cannot imagine my life without you

Sending you my love xoxo

Precious Moments

/

Last year this time I was on the Oregon Coast

Surrounded by the most amazing women

Each one so talented, so brave,

So willing to open up and share themselves

It was a moment in time that is forever etched in my heart

And since then I have not been the same

We stood along side one another

Held each others hands

Gave each other space to grow

We were present in the moment

And with each other

We learned how precious sisterhood really is

And we felt the power that happens when women come together

We laughed

We cried

We opened each other up

And held the space for one another

Even though a year has flown by

This sisterhood has remained strong

Support and love swirls through this group

My eyes well up with tears

When a candle is lit

A prayer is said

A hug is given

And a cheer is sung from the mountain tops

Even if it is virtual

It is filled with deep meaning

Thank you scarf sisters

For being exactly who you are

For spreading your wings

And soaring

The journey you are on is precious

And I am so lucky to watch it all unfold

so lucky!

My heart feels full

So incredibly full

I am surrounded by love

Encircled by people who support me

Cheer me on

And truly want to see me shine

How did I get so lucky?

I am amazed and in awe

Of all the love that swirls around me

Each kind word cracks my heart open a little more

Every high five brings a smile to my face

A knowing glance

A warm embrace

All of these things fill me up

How did I get so lucky?

I stand here

My soul overflowing with joy

An enormous smile on my face

Grateful for each encounter

I am so lucky in this life

And so appreciative for the chance to experience it

Thank you universe!
