I dream that the small gifts, the whispers of spirit which move through me find a voice and that I, the carrier can learn to trust the tenor of that expression.

On Tom Kenyons’ Serpentine Grid Meditation

A vision exists within this matrix of being, human, being held within the context of a role as mother, lover, daughter, friend, teacher, this energetic awareness of my ancestral selves. The possibilities of other lives lived does not have to be believed to understand that what we hold as flesh and blood is an energetic formed eons ago from star matter and earth matter and spirit. We do not exist solitarily or solidly. One only has to look beyond the outward context to see within the eyes of another, the endless possibilities of our beginnings. To see ourselves, our world, our history reflected back upon the other as an imagined story that begs to be deconstructed. The more I see, the less I know, the more I become. This boundlessness, this context dematerialized, this body loosening its dream-like grip becoming the earth, the stars, becoming the universe once again. This imagined self as simply a reflection, a glimpse of light lighting.
