Guardians of the Earth, it is time to play an active role in protecting and preserving the Wild and the Green by being aware of, and limiting impact on the natural world. This world is a gift … tread gently, with care, and walk with love.
Wisdom is born from seeking the lesson in all experiences. It is born from the awareness that all things are connected, and that all happens for a reason … even when the reason remains a mystery. Listen to your internal voice as well as the human and non-human messengers who come and go. Let yourself be inspired to explore unknown pathways.
Fear can be big or small. Some fear is a reminder to be cautious, others are shadows that have been made real and given substance which only serve to restrict and limit. Shine a light upon them and see them for what they are.
Half notes and Serenades, two of my most favorite things. But … they aren’t actually ‘two’, are they?
All things are often over-simplified, and more complex than many people have current ability, or willingness, to understand. This is the time for discovery, digging in deep and learning what actually IS.
This is a “Time for Greatness”,written and performed by Fia
Lyrics: I am looking at my life It’s better than a dream So many things I prayed for Are now reality I am travelling the road Sharing my medicine A conscious creator Supporting healing
The world is a wild and beautiful place We are constantly evolving as a human race I truly believe this is a time for greatness Everyone is invited to embody their light Living life as love and shining bright The shackles of fear breaking once and for all This is a song for all the rainbow warriors The brilliant ones leading the way
Heya heya heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya heya ho
I had no other choice There was only truth When I opened my eyes I was brand new I am forever free Nothing in my way Field of infinite wisdom This is where I play
The world is a wild and beautiful place We are constantly evolving as a human race I truly believe this is a time for greatness Everyone is invited to embody their light Living life as love and shining bright The shackles of fear breaking once and for all This is a song for all the rainbow warriors The brilliant ones leading the way
Heya heya heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya heya ho
Unity consciousness Weaving cross our planet Remembering, we are rising as one
The world is a wild and beautiful place We are constantly evolving as a human race I truly believe this is a time for greatness Everyone is invited to embody their light Living life as love and shining bright The shackles of fear breaking once and for all This is a song for all the rainbow warriors The brilliant ones leading the way
Heya heya heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya ho Heya heya heya heya ho
Such a beautiful lady sending a powerful message in the song above.
When people release the need to hoard that which they have, when we choose instead to gift of ourselves and our possessions to others, the world heals ~ a little bit at a time.
It is not always monetary gifts that make the biggest changes. It is the smile, the time we take to just sit with someone, acknowledging them as a vital part of the world.
Let us not forget to do the same for ourselves, we must find value in the beingness that we are. We are a portion of something so very fantastic! LIFE!!
We breathe this life in, every day, every moment … ALL of us. No one person is more deserving of this than any other. This same principle applies to shelter, to food, to loving kindness and compassion, and to recognition for the specialness that each individual holds within their hearts.
Let us practice seeing the good in each other. If we are not paying attention we may miss something so amazing! Look for it, see that wonderful spark that comes out of everyone you meet … even if you only watch from a distance, watch for it. It is beautiful to see!
Shield brother calls to beg me get a message to his girl ancestors stirring, sending messages through our own across the world I am listening, I am following as warriors of the light can only do we ride rootless on heavy medicine every day until our lives are through
CHORUS 1 we ride rootless on heavy medicine disconnected from the ground we ride rootless in dark places unafraid that we might fall or die or drown we are working, we are tireless we are seekers of the way we ride rootless on heavy medicine and we live to fight another day
Time to do the work while my bones and blood are wild with lessons learned and secrets shared Friends and lovers help me put my armor back together and never let me leave home unprepared My comrade sets his fiddle to his shoulder and I know today there’ll be no turning back. We’ll ride rootless on heavy medicine unashamed of what we lack
CHORUS 2 We ride rootless on heavy medicine disconnected from the ground We ride fearless in dark places hearts in danger but our spirits safe and sound We are working, we are tireless singing songs to stir the sky We are honor bound to share these visions walking tall and getting by walking tall when we don’t fly
Dirt beneath my nails I claw my way home from the forest just as crazy as before but I am breathing and I am laughing taking one step at a time bringing truth from door to door and I’m not the only one one of many unafraid to open eyes or heart or mind We ride rootless on heavy medicine and we do it all the time
CHORUS 3 We ride rootless on heavy medicine disconnected from the ground We ride windward across the wasteland skin in danger but our hearts all safe and sound We speak the language of song and shadow We are tenders of the flame We ride rootless on heavy medicine and from day one we’ve never been the same
CHORUS 4 We are healers working retail or working graveyard without pay We tell stories in our circle We listen or we dance or we just pray We are working, we are tireless We are teachers of the way We ride rootless on heavy medicine and we walk it every day
CHORUS 1 we ride rootless on heavy medicine disconnected from the ground we ride rootless in dark places unafraid that we might fall or die or drown we are working, we are tireless we are seekers of the way we ride rootless on heavy medicine and we live to fight another day
END COUNTERMELODY: we are here so the stories get told don’t give up ride out be bold build the fire bright and strong speak your truth and sing your song
you are here so the stories get told goddess bless your weary soul raise your voice to call the cry storytellers never die
goddess bless your weary heart tried and tested, torn apart holding hands around the flames healed and whole we rise again
goddess bless your weary soul we are here so the stories get told and we live to fight another day
Thank you S.J. Tucker for allowing me to share on this blog.
S. J. Tucker is an Arkansas-born North American female singer-songwriter. Originally inspired by alternative folk rock artists like Joni Mitchell, Jeff Buckley and Ani DiFranco, Tucker – also called “Sooj” or “Skinny White Chick” – soon branched out to assume a more diverse identity. Like The Beatles – another cited influence – Tucker prefers an eclectic approach to songcraft. Since her debut album in 2004, Tucker’s work has integrated elements of electronica, filk, spoken word, world music and – with the troupe Fire & Strings – fire-spinning.
Things look more ‘sane’ when you separate the coming and going into the two-way ‘street’. People think one-way streets are really that, but it’s return path has only been separated by buildings, giving the illusion of a one-way path. It is a two-way path, always … in all things.
When roses bloom & we listen to bird song, it is right that we live with joy and harmony, that is how we recognize love.
It’s natural and normal for some people to laugh at your struggle. Because they may lack the vision to see. Your struggle is the price of the caterpillar becoming the butterfly.
I woke in the middle of the night and this song was running through my mind. It is beautiful and I noted it as I drifted off to sleep once more. My pups woke me at 5:30, typical, for that is potty break and breakfast time. Once again this song played in my mind.
It is amazing what will run through the mind when effort to think is not applied. I consider these messages from beyond, and I am grateful for them.
It is no wonder that meditation is practiced by so many. This is when these ‘messages’ come through most clearly and the distinct knowledge that we are not alone becomes the experienced reality.
All the linked posts under this blog are an outcome of my observations about the things that often go unnoticed and the things that are often taken for granted.
