Death comes to those we love,

Are you ready?

Will you regret?

Will you survive?

Now is the time

To gather your thoughts

Now is the time

To make your peace

If you wait for death

You wait too long

If you wait for tomorrow

You wait too long

Everyday say I love you

Everyday say I miss you

Everyday say what is in your heart

For every day may not be

Loose the games

Yes, you know those..

The ones you’ve played

Every day before

Loose the pettiness

Speak your truth

Loose the fear

Risk your love

Open your heart

Open your mind

Love as though

You have never

Loved before

Find the child within and play

Be joyous and kind

See the wonder in every day..

Together

If you wait for death

You wait too long

If you wait for tomorrow

You wait too long

Gather the grandmothers

Gather the grandfathers

Come to the table of peace and love

Come to the land of presence and light

Here is our Earth

Here are our people

Gather the children

Our hope our future our being

Where our thoughts go, our lives go

Gather our thoughts

Change the direction

Change the destruction

Where are you

What are you

Will you grow

Will you not

Gather ourselves and change what is

For without this there will not be

Life for our earth, life for our children

Life for ourselves

Gather the music, the art, the beauty

Sing the love the light and be thank-full

For all that is, all that can be

Laugh, sing , listen, brothers and sisters

For all is in, now, in our hands

She awakens and gathers her powers

 

She sings herself into being

With her body and soul she sings

The awakening song of self

 

She sings into being her story

Burying her heart 

She creates something new

 

She sings into being her powers

Gathering them from the Earth

Seeing through all illusion

 

Listen listen hear

Wake up wake up

Or stay asleep

There is no time for indecision

Strong Heart

 

It is the fragile life force of the small things that matter

This is the life force that holds our world together

It takes a strong heart to rebuild, reseed, and replant

One tree at a time

One seed at a time

One vision at a time

It takes vigilance to know what is being lost,

What is already gone, that we never knew

It takes a strong heart to fight for these things

Denise Kester: A Renaissance of Heart

I am emerging and merging with something

new and uncertain.

It feels like I am falling, but I am not.

It is my shifting point of view that is bending

and expanding.

Breaking Through Old Patterns

Breaking through old patterns to bring

In the new ways of being that come

from the gut and move through the

heart to fly free at the throat to

come out singing a clear song of hallelujah

A Creation Story(The Birth of Gaia and the Beginning of Something New)

She is the daughter of chaosBorn of star materialFire and ice, sound and fury

Alchemical green and blue matter

Orange red magma spewing passionate heatSteamy beginnings

A universal elixir of lifeNever still always in motionChanging, growing, dying, rebirthing

Shape shifting, dreaming, and imagining She will always be, in some form or anotherShe may shake us off and begin again

She may shape herself so that theParadise lost, will be found again

But lately in her perfect thunder mind

Something magical and vital is stirring Her dreams have been infused withUnusual entanglements of ideas

Exotic possibilities of thoughtNever before felt Bubbling up from the heart of her heart.

I invite you to listen to Gail Mooney and to hear all about her most recent documentary film Like a Woman. Like a Woman is a film about women who are breaking barriers in male-dominated professions. We hear of amazing and inspiring  women from many different backgrounds and of many different ages, being who and what they want to be in their careers.   Like A Woman is a film that informs women and girls about their unlimited potential and it empowers them to understand that there are limitless possibilities in todays workforce.

 

Gail, during her more than  30 years as a professional photographer for international magazines and major corporations knows what it’s like to be the only woman in the room and yet she followed her heart and blazed trails around the world creating stories on film. Listen in as Gail tells stories of her travels while shooting for National Geographic,Travel and Leisure and The Smithsonian.

 

Opening Our Eyes, a joint project that Gail worked on with her daughter Erin Kelly, was Gails first feature length documentary. Gail and Erin circled the globe seeking ordinary people who are making our world a better place – one person at a time.  Opening Our Eyes. Creating Good. The Global Power of One.

Well Being holding the world together

 

Well Being holds chaos 

On the edge of despair

While breathing in disappointment

And breathing out trust

Breathing in aloneness 

Breathing out community

Breathing in greed

Breathing out kindness

Breathing in war

Breathing out peace

Well Being holds multiple realities

On the edge of creative possibilities

While breathing in new pathways

And breathing out intention

Breathing in the void 

Breathing out the source

Breathing in all time

Breathing out this moment

Breathing in the dying away

Breathing out the birthing anew

 

Well Being holds the world together

On the edge of the great wide open

While breathing in the eyes

And breathing out the heart

Breathing in the cosmos

Breathing out the atom

Breathing in oneness with all life

Breathing out the unique choice

Breathing in love 

Breathing out love
