Time circles high Pushing through to what matters
What matters most in this icy desolation Daughters of the revolution
Sons of anarchy
All in chaotic bliss central to my location
Central to the core of my beliefs
Central to the Armageddon of
my song, My rules, my choices
Who can stand by me
Holding the power of patience
And dedication to family
Who can stand by me
Through acquisition and free trade
Selling humble wares
Witnessing the miracle of healing
And the erythema of harmony
Poetry where my mouth wasA cause to support human evolution
A revolution in humanity
Creating a welcoming home for foreigners
Legalizing aliens, ( what the fuck even a play on words sounds dehumanizing)
legalizing travelers that help a thriving community
Utilizing natures laws we create safety in migration
A salutation in solution standing together not in solitude
One nation one earth under the sky
Way up north in the Massachusetts woods where the maple syrup flows and the dandelions grow first of spring awakens everything
Way up north in the woods we are Brewers of the dankest beer baby honey real tasty mead is even sweeter.
The green river flows through the veins of crystal ledges
Way up north where the apples trees grow the hardest cider flows you’ll find me chasing monarchs through the milkweed fields or tearing bittersweet from struggling trees
Balance…
Is finding normalcy in this life even possible? We have all have our preconceived notions of what normal is supposed to be like, but is living it actually what we want? I told my daughter last night that I would love it if she could be happy all the time but that isn’t always possible. Sometimes we have to take life by the moments. Sometimes you have to just find one thing beautiful and focus on that for awhile and realize that moment is beautiful and eventually they add up.
Sure I would love a house, a husband/wife I could be faithful too a great job and a group of friends I go out with on one scheduled visit a month. Sadly not my life right now and I would have to give up my summer touring around for one or more of the normal things and I am not ready to grow up that much yet. Stability is not over rated and yet I am not ready to settle for just any house or job that might take me away from my art. The key is balance.
Striving for amazingness is great but not if it makes you go crazy! A little each day just do a little something and eventually it will add up! I am amazed as I begin to publicly share my stuff just how much I do make and as you get to know me and my life it’s a lot of chaos but I make things happen pushing through obstacles.

Amazon you can find my two books… Soul love saga and Quantum Spirituality
There is only A few moments of the day left to dream. I escape and quench my thirst for desires before I retreat back into life.
As single moms do we tend to spend most of my awake time focused on my kids and how to help them be good world citizens.
I do what I love to support us. Not because I can but because I owe it to myself and everyone else to serve my life purpose as opposed to being miserably tied down to the grind.
I’m a hopeless romantic that can’t see past my own day to date.
I daydream but don’t have much time for the real thing.
Have we settled into our independence or just like sweatpants and don’t want a routine or dreams interrupted?
The nights of my dreams love of my life,
Shaman of my soul.
Secret of universal truth Is…
We are all one…
Watch me dance
Through the horizons and rainbows Grab my hips and pull me close. Dance with me through the dappled moon light in the forest.
Touch the center of my beingYou weren’t just a fleeting moment in my lifetime
Leaving stardust on my trail
You lit Wildfire in my body
Illuminating my soul
It’s time to rise up out of this reasonA legal treason
Impoverished ghetto seasoning
Guessing life wasn’t all we dreamed it would be
but we kept on living
Kept on trying to make it work
Like a refugee
we sought safety in the land.
Rise up to be part of the community
Supported by ambition
United by location
Let them in
This wasn’t our land to begin with
THRIVE
Standing alone in this world against all odds I thrive. Taking life one moment at a time trying to have faith that all i need will come to me when I need them the most. I begin yet another job to self support while giving me enough time to do what I was meant to do.
breathe….
just breathe. I can’t let the stress get to me. I meditate on the here and now. Now being optimal since it is the only thing I can control. Let the light into my body and adjust my posture. Pulling and aligning my spine by the crown of my head, sit taller. Engage your abs and you are bringing everything, all of your eternal organs, your thoughts into well being and activating them on a very real level.
Yoga teaches me so much about aligning my body and figuring out how the best way to position myself as work.
As a mom I spend at least an hour a day doing dishes. If I were a star I could hire someone to do this but I am not so I won’t. I do it myself and I have to utilize every moment I can. Ok so I am also dealing with winter weight and have to optimize every calorie and calorie burning minutes I can. Here are some yoga moves I do at the kitchen sink remember to engage your core and position and roll your body around being thoroughly conscious of your posture. I have drawn circles to help you position your body. Try isolations  slow  and fast like a belly dance shimmy.
Creators life
As a creator of everything under the sun my hardest task is finding a way not to live in a daydream. I am a romantic and one word or action can change my world and the way I think of it. I stand and a tornado of idea’s is ravaging me when I try to order coffee and I look like a bumbling idiot who just created a whole empire in my head.

Vending summer thoughts flowing through my mind
As I start to think about the upcoming festival season ( ok it’s always on my mind) I got a email from Alison one of my favourite artists in the world for conscious alignment. I am super psyched and ready to start working on applications. Tho as time goes on I feel like venues are increasing becoming more difficult to get into Is this on purpose? Â As someone who does all her own work to sell meaning one of a kind handmade non production pieces it’s difficult to stay ahead! Banaroo use to discount artists I hope other venues learn this karma saving lessons as well
CROWNING MOMENT OF GLORY
  
I love how pieces develop over time. They live through my life as they are made being tried on by dozens of kids. I take them to festivals and they get tried on by hundreds of people who love to dress up and get fancy fancy in the booth. It really is the reason I make these big intense things. I love seeing beautiful faces smiling at my wares. This one was worn in the most amazing performance by jazmin of the luminous Flo tribe during Pink talking phish… Amazingness. The picture was taken by Roger Gupta.
Holistic approach to creativity
 If you are reading this you are on your way to the sacred. We are all searching to better our lives one moment at a time.
Luminous Meditating  $60
We are a nation that looks forward to the future and lives in the past. Though I do believe that if you want to progress it’s best to learn from your past and have an idea on where you want to go in the future. The focus should be in the here and now. You really can’t live in any other time than the now. Now is just where you were meant to be. E Tolle wrote a phenomenal book here and now and it teaches us that nothing exists but the here and now.
New England is the only place where you can have all seasons happening in one week. Two snow days and one weekend really help me to focus on my work, my calling, my art. Snow bound moments in time keep me creating on full alert. Scrambling to make money and pay bills while staying true to who I am is a balance I enjoy.

I’m in the middle of applying for a HUGE grant through a company called Artplace. If you have big idea’s on art centered things in your community I suggest looking it up. If I were to get this it could make my dreams come true and bring an art Mecca to this valley. When I went to the seminar it was all about ‘ What would you do if you had unlimited resources to make your dreams come true?’ Sooo what would you do?
There is a vague emptinessThat surrounds my chaos
Surrealism that is misguided
As this life lived in reverence
Cast mundane aside
For a moon dance
Saturating our cells
In starlight from where we came filling that void
To help us endure reality
Suggestions that marginalized
The magnitude of being
A better human spirit.
Dancing in the dirt of reality
Gleaning lessons of a souls journey.
I push through obstacles
Giving back what’s not mine
Letting others be responsible for their own happiness and substandard choices
In their existence
Looking for a lifetime
Beyond these fleeting moments of love to share mind body and soul
