Prayer of thanks

For dreams and wishes, fears and failures, thank you
For spirit movers and dull intruders, thank you
For joyful breezes and stifling still, thank you
For life in colour and end in spite, thank you.

As I walk the gentle path, toward a now that is the spark,
I miss the fill that you provide
So trash the mill that is my mind.

You create and so do I
When I attach you push me to fly
into oblivion until I find
That grace is here, not in my mind

I search for magic like an obsessed seeker
You twist my drama you grim reaper
The miracles are here for all
The gifts unlimited, life and more
There is no need for nought but grace
And gratitude in Wirikuta space

Thank you for the steps I walk
And every moment I don't talk

Thanks for all the time I be
And for when I see and see
Thanks for touch and when they hold
And let me return the gifts of gold

The fortress that surrounds my heart
Is fragile when I sense Your art
And thankfully erodes in time
When oneness is beyond the line

It is enough this life I lead
I am sufficient to be the seed
Of all that is to share What Is
With love, mistakes and trying bliss

Thank you God and all your might
All your gentle and What Is not right

Grace Be

On his retirement. A tribute to a legend

Veterinarian & human extraordinaire. 50 years of true service to the animal world, the animal people, and to his animal-loving family.  Four siblings all who care significantly for animals as a result of the way we were raised.  To respect life.  Because that is who our father his.  Our father is more than a vet.  He is a compassionate man.  A vet who took his oath to care for animals to the greatest level, inspiring those close and around him to do the same.  Caring so deeply.  Working so hard.  Ensuring that he always did his best.  He has such depth and wisdom.  He has always had a following of people in his life who he wisely guides.  His generosity is boundless.  He has inspired his children way more than can be imagined.  We are pretty sure there are not many people who are so fortunate to have this example of humble love to follow.  We are equally unsure whether we can truly honour his example by dupli...

A Lesson in Surrender

  I always found the concept of surrender a cop out.  Something one would do if one was too weak to take on a situation.   So, when I found myself in a situation where I am unable to follow my passion in the most effective manner, I experienced great discomfort.  Speaking up was immediately taken as judgement.  Even though it was never intended as that.  The presumed judgement resulted in defence.  And the drama began, and unfolded.   Chasms and vindication ruled.  Frustration and finger pointing. What has this to do with animals?   For those of us that work with animals, they are like kids.  They sense how we feel.  Our moods affect them.  So, when this type of angst environment is created, the disturbance affects the creatures that we love. The lesson – stop the angst.  It is not worth upsetting the animals.  Nothing is.  So, surrender.  Not sure where this will go.  But I am here righ...

What is success?

Success is not giving a hoot.  If you can be a 45 year old cat woman playing in front of 3000 people, totally uninhibited, then you are succeeding.  Because if you are able to do that, you are in the present moment, not caring about what anybody else thinks.  Not worried about their judgements or how you think you should be coming across.  (ok, so I was a little worried, so not 100% successful, but I continue to strive to be free of this nonsence) When you have that presence of mind in front of animals, that is when you are succeeding.
