What Do You Wish To Read?
First let me start off by saying that I wish for more time in my easy chair and a better pair of reading glasses. Also I cannot wait for school to be out for the summer. Right now my calendar is booked solid with appointments , school functions, graduations and parties, birthdays and a wedding. Hopefully I will be able to schedule in my own Mom on Mother's Day!
Currently there are five books that I just have yet to finish and just renewed at the library.
1. Meditating With Mandalas by David Fontana
2. Let The Numbers Guide You By Shiv Charan Singh
3.Reiki for Beginners By David F Vennells
4. The Power of Less By Leo Babuta
5. The Complete Idiots Guide to Zen Living
By Gary McClain ,PhD & Eve Adamson ,MFA
Laugh if you will at the last one, but hey this nightime
Mermaid Moon Goddess - Daytime Earth Mother is craving some ZEN.
Also some friends and I shall be reading and discussing this book over the summer.
Wreck This Journal by Keri Smith
Maybe you would like to join us?
I'm off to read the blogs of my soul tribe, alas there never seems to be enough time. So, I shall add that to my list as well. Hopefully I can also learn to read and follow my own intuition a little better. For there is always room for improvement.Speaking of room-do you think that when Jamie
is finished remodeling that I could sneak inside and stay for awhile?

aloha-friday
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day everyone takes it easy and looks forward to the weekend.
On Saturday I am taking my daughter and her friends to our local
Earth Day Tree Fair. There will be many fun and educational events. We will bring a few trees home to plant in our yard. Later in the evening, the Coach and I will attend a multi-year high school reunion. We look forward to catching up with old friends.
So what are your weekend plans?

What Step Do You Wish To Take?
Remember that game? Mother may I? You asked if you could take so many steps. Little by little your request was granted. Once you reached the end it was your turn to be Mother. Sometimes you never made it. That's because everyone else was asking for and taking much bigger steps.
In my youth reaching Mama was never difficult. Then I became an adult.
What was once so easy became much more challenging
even though I am the MOTHER.
I feel that I have made some great strides in finding the path that is right for me,
yet I still have a long way to go. For I am holding back. Life.
Some days I get it right,
get it wrong and then there are the "I am not so sure days."
There are times of Joy( and they are wonderful)
yet also times of Sorrow.
I am still grieving and quite frankly sick and tired of being told to "get over it."
It's time for me to get real with myself. And others.

So the step I wish to take is to:
Let it go
Let it out
In person and on my blog

Step out and join the tribe:)
