Awhile back I heard a masculine exclaim, “I just need to figure out what the F it is!”
And I remembered days long, long ago when my hair was to my waist, all nice and perfectly straight. I used to comb the hair in front and wear glasses and pretend to be “Cousin Itt”.
It’s like a diamond ring It’s a precious thing And we never want to lose it It’s like a favorite song That we love to sing Every time we hear the music
We’re in this love together We got the kind that lasts forever We’re in this love together And like berries on the vine It gets sweeter all the time
Its like a rainy night in candlelight And, ooh it’s so romantic We got the whole thing working out so right And it’s just the way we planned it
Tell ya We’re in this love together We got the kind that lasts forever Don’t you know We’re in this love together And like berries on the vine It gets sweeter all the time
We’re in this love together We got the kind that lasts forever We’re in this love together And like berries on the vine It gets sweeter all the time

I am safe.
I am protected.
My family divine knows exactly what’s happening, intimately connected.
He won’t leave me, he who claimed me. Unlike, completely, those who harm me.
Perfectly knowing, and perfectly capable and willing, he handles my tormentors without fail, giving exactly what they have coming.
I rest.
I need not worry, or wonder how to survive … I’m no longer alone.
My family from above has very scary friends from many places. I love our scary friends and family. So much. They are quite a bit more frightening than those who thought they were competing … with me.
No, I’m not scary at all.
I never wanted the fight.
After all this time, my load has been made light.
Grateful. Grateful. Grateful.
I’m never alone.
Intimately united in all ways with truest family divine, within, and without, time.
How I love you.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you, my beautiful, my scary, my everything, for this beautiful song on the day of love …
You’ll always be with me.
I love you.
I am grateful.
I’m never alone.
Protected.
Guided.
Guarded.
Our family divine, so glad you are here, my beautiful scary loves!!! Having you in my mental body is so much more pleasant than a skullcap full of adversaries!
You will recognize her because she makes genuine eye contact with whomever she meets… She is not afraid to be direct and honest about how she feels
She charts her own course And is willing to meet whatever comes Because she has faith in her journey She’s aware of her own strength
She delights in enabling the wellbeing and the empowerment of others But she refuses to subject herself to energy drainers… She sees through bullshit instantly She knows how to protect herself She is obedient to her own inner knowing, She is willing to break the rules made by others in order to be authentic to herself
Her truth comes directly through her heart She uses her mind as the servant to manifest it
She is inwardly and outwardly aware She responds more than she reacts She no longer waters illusory drama She no longer feels the need to control what is
She is deeply connected to her creative source She is her own work of art in progress She can create beauty from whatever is in front of her
She is in tune with her intuition and instinctual body She lives in the present Because she is willing to relinquish the past And allow the future the space it needs to unfold
She understands that life is an ever changing flow from one moment to the next… She willingly goes with it.
She feels deeply connected to the earth and stays close to nature, She recognizes that she is not separate from it… Being connected to nature is essential for her health and wellbeing
She has simplified her life Released the non-essentials so that she can be spacious and free
She values her aloneness, She waters her soul with it But she also values quality time with like minded souls
She doesn’t need a man to complete her Her relationships are on an equal basis of respect and sharing Unbridled sensual pleasure…
She has no time for gossip She’s invested in raising the sisterhood up rather than cutting it down
She celebrates the beauty and power in other women She celebrates the beauty and power within herself
She is just as willing to receive as she is to give She fills her own cup for herself and overflows it for others
She understands the futility of unsolicited advice So she shares her wisdom through living it
She envisions the healing of the world She offers her gifts as a contribution towards it
Love is her religion Unity is her gospel Laughter is her grace
She loves to play through her inner child Sing and dance through her inner maiden She nurtures her body mind and spirit daily through her inner mother
Others seek her for her wisdom Are irresistibly drawn to her unpredictable mystery
They feel seen and accepted in her steady gaze… Peaceful in her sacred space
They are shocked by her irreverent humor But secretly inspired, uplifted, Given permission to be themselves
She is Maiden, Mother and Crone In one She is Goddess
