I am not a human being
trying to have a spiritual experience.
I am a spirit being
mastering the human experience.

My One Word 2013

I've been struggling with my One Word this year. Last year it came so perfectly and I was hoping it'd be the same this time around but no... It kept itself hidden and recent events sort of brought it out into the light.

So... yeah... Last years Heart rather unexpectedly, yet quite obviously, brought Love and then it left me again on Sunday and all, ALL, I've been able to think about is breathing. My breath seems to have left together with Love and my current way of breathing is through deep deeeeep sighs.

My one word 2013 is
 Breathe
1) ...to repeatedly draw air into, and expel it from, the lungs in order to extract oxygen from it and excrete waste products.
2) ...to rest; to stop and catch one's breath.
3)  ...to be relaxed or calm. ...the wind breathes through the trees...
4) ...to live. I will not allow it, as long as I still breathe.
5) ...to whisper quietly.


I need to do all of the above.
I need to breathe, for me and for my kids. Breathing will (hopefully) bring less stress, less angst, less anger, more air, more patience, more calm, more peace.

Breathe, just breathe... and everything will be alright again.



I took a deep breath and listened to the old bray of my heart. I am. I am. I am.
