“Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others’ faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.”

For When People Ask
Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer

I want a word that means
okay and not okay,
more than that: a word that means
devastated and stunned with joy.
I want the word that says
I feel it all all at once.
The heart is not like a songbird
singing only one note at a time,
more like a Tuvan throat singer
able to sing both a drone
and simultaneously
two or three harmonics high above it—
a sound, the Tuvans say,
that gives the impression
of wind swirling among rocks.
The heart understands swirl,
how the churning of opposite feelings
weaves through us like an insistent breeze
leads us wordlessly deeper into ourselves,
blesses us with paradox
so we might walk more openly
into this world so rife with devastation,
this world so ripe with joy.
✨✨✨✨✨✨

This ‘swirl’ which Rosemerry describes can overwhelm at times.
Beautiful, complicated, frustrating and simultaneously liberating.

Paradox…..

Navigating churning tides of emotions like heading into a storm, aware of the dangers, yet clothed with the proper gear to face the tempest head on. Knowing without KNOWING that the other side of those dark clouds, lives beauty and peace.
Feelings of apprehension swirling around anticipation.
Hmmmmmmmm…..

Hope you and yours had a lovely Holiday weekend!

These days, you’ll find me either massaging when booked or on slower days, studying and testing in MyoSkeletal Alignment Techniques.
And between the two - training so Moose and I can enjoy a few hikes this coming Summer.

Finding joy and true self…

Power up! ( Fav breakfast, these days.)

The sweet scent of Cherry Blossoms are in full bloom. They line the courtyard in DT Superior. It’s VERY early ( Usually May ) to see these thin, pink petals dusting the sidewalks and scenting the air.

The Shift


She wanted a little room for thinking.
With no room available,
she settled for a chair.
She sat there.
To anyone else, it might have looked
as if nothing was happening.
Inside her, whole foundations
were crumbling. Maps were
unmapping. Paths
were unpathing. A tornado
of doubt did its perfect work.
Somewhere there was light.
No one else could see the rubble
rising all around her.
Also in that wreckage,
her belief in fixing.
God, she was raw.
Now, now
there was room.

Every time we pass this spot on the dusty river trail,
my daughter gazes across the water to the other side,
shaded by cliffs, where moss grows thick and deep.
I would love to sleep on that moss, she says,
as her eyes go gauzy, her voice grows soft.
Living in high desert, as we do, mossy places are few.
As a girl, I had in my bedroom a whole wall covered
with a mural of a Japanese garden, its gray rocks
mostly covered in green. I, too, dreamed of stepping
into in a place so lush, so verdant, so alive even rocks
proved fertile ground. To find that kind of fertility inside me—
inviting what is sensual, vital, to flourish in the barren,
desiccated places in my heart—that is my new dream.
But it is not always easy to let in the dark. Not always easy
to let what is hard in me be broken down so something
might grow. There are places I long to go with my girl.
Some are nearby, just across the stream.
Some, breath close, are much harder to travel to.
