Poetic PEACE Pilgrimage – Day 114 – April 9, 2014

Named Rainbow 3-10-14 002So many blessings are coloring today’s walk as a Red Letter Day… Exactly two years ago, i had an appointment with a surgeon to discuss what course of treatment to pursue for throat cancer lesions. To my amazement and his, they had disappeared!  Unable to grasp this turn, i kept asking if he was sure and he kept looking but there was no trace – it’s a miracle and one i celebrate daily.

This part of the pilgrimage of blessings, this blessingway began some eight years ago when i was diagnosed with advanced metastatic cancer. This trail has meandered through many twists and turns and brought into sharper focus what really matters, i had known for quite some time that love is it, the distraction of not acting from that reality in every moment was obliterated forever, hence, the blessing.

Two years and four months ago, i began occupying the abundance of infinite love and gratitude. Four months later, i had been successfully treated for melanoma and throat cancer had disappeared along with a few other daunting diagnoses.

Today, i dwell in the abundance of infinite love and gratitude in every moment so grateful for  for being entrusted with the gift of this sacred wound and the breaking of my heart wide open to care for it, to tend it, to love it unconditionally.

Thank you, thank you, thank you…

Named Rumi PrayerOne of my favorite childhood memories is staying with my Grandmother and living her simple life close to the earth. After a day of cooking and gardening and walking and being with friends, she would always get on her knees to pray before going into dreamtime. Similarly, i must breathe in through our one heart and write out this prayer before i can close my eyes at day’s end… Today, i witness so much and at moments it is hard to bare, and yet, i’m still breathing thanksgiving with every breath which somehow inspires continuing onward…

each breath a prayer

every step a thanksgiving

living from the heart

Meditating today on Sunday’s new moon in Aries, the first of this astrological year, a potent space to create life anew, i re-treat inside into the Blissness Blue Moon Lodge to swim with whales through the ocean of rainbow being. As beautiful as the outer whale pilgrimage, the inner whale journey is as compelling and innergizing as i breathe with whales in rhythm with waves…
