Stark Naked: January 2012
http://starknakid.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
My kids.My heart. Saturday, January 7, 2012. Idle Time Random Thoughts. If it is your absolute personal truth - it will not change depending upon your audience. I cannot change someone else’s mindset and in most cases it shouldn’t matter that much to me what someone else thinks. After all, someone else’s belief system surely doesn’t impact the reality I see through my own eyes. Why has my heart always cared so passionately about what another believes is truth? Time to let that one go. Words when spoken g...

My kids.My heart. Sunday, August 24, 2014. A Legacy of Love. Time does not really heal all wounds. Time allows a scar to gently grow and cover the gaping hole in one’s heart that is created by the loss of someone you love. Today would have been my grandmother - Dixie Jeanette Ribordy's. Links to this post. Saturday, August 16, 2014. I am Powerful Beyond Measure. This has always been one of my favorite quotes but I don’t know that I have truly ever embraced it. It is my honor to be a conduit of her love.

Stark Naked: February 2014
http://starknakid.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
My kids.My heart. Thursday, February 6, 2014. Warm, sunny January day,. I was exiting the cemetery after a brief but comforting visit with a few of the people in my life that have departed this temporary home and I was struck by the beauty and grief of this man sitting alone with his departed loved one. On this particular day, I was feeling a profound sadness in my own heart. The only place I could place my sorrow was at the feet of those no longer able themselves to feel it. Love is the eternal word.

My kids.My heart. Saturday, September 1, 2012. Have you ever found yourself missing someone so much that if you pay close enough attention to your body you can feel your heart climbing north into your chest until it actually feels like it is at the base of your throat? It’s unbearable and it feels so unfair. Especially when that someone is lying next to you, straight faced, staring at the dust collecting on the ceiling fan above. But in reality, no sound escapes your lips. Not only for the suffering mind...

Stark Naked: All of Me
http://starknakid.blogspot.com/2014/12/all-of-me-i-ache-to-find-key-that-opens.html
My kids.My heart. Saturday, December 13, 2014. I ache to find the key that opens my heart to all of me. I yearn for the moments when life’s beauty steals the breath from my lungs. And you and I and every other beating heart becomes one. My heart beats loudly with the desire to see only the beauty in each and every one. I feel it moving its way beneath my feet as I search for a way to seize each moment and become who I was born to be. Undoubtedly, in those answers, is where I’ll find the key –.

Stark Naked: July 2012
http://starknakid.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
My kids.My heart. Tuesday, July 3, 2012. I could write the secrets my heart holds. I could heal the world with intention. I could live in the present moment, as if I only had today. All people could live their own truth. All children felt protected – every single day. Love was a promise we would always keep. The spoken word was never a sword. The written word - always the truth. Pain was never more than one could bear. Friends never go away. Forever was something I could believe. Links to this post.

Stark Naked: It's a good life....
http://starknakid.blogspot.com/2013/06/its-good-life.html
My kids.My heart. Saturday, June 1, 2013. It's a good life. Oh, it’s a good life. But its not her life. Not the one she envisioned so long ago. She was a poet. A free spirit with a story sometimes she wanted to tell. Indeed, she has a pretty sweet life – but its not her life. Her life was going to be magical with beauty never ending. Lived under a mystical spell. Where is this girl – I remember thinking I knew her so well. I see glimpses of her now,. But I think it’s a veil. That love and her pen.

Stark Naked: I am Powerful Beyond Measure
http://starknakid.blogspot.com/2014/08/i-am-powerful-beyond-measure.html
My kids.My heart. Saturday, August 16, 2014. I am Powerful Beyond Measure. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.”. This has always been one of my favorite quotes but I don’t know that I have truly ever embraced it. Learning to embrace my own authentic power has always felt a bit arrogant. Fully embracing and living a loving, joyful life is the grandest thank you I can give. The mo...

Stark Naked: August 2011
http://starknakid.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
My kids.My heart. Sunday, August 21, 2011. Time does not really heal all wounds. Time allows a scar to gently grow and cover the gaping hole in one’s heart that is created by the loss of someone you love. Today I woke up thinking about the young lives of my students who have just lost their mother and their grandmother and I thought about the loss of my own grandmother. I still miss her every single day. Love is her legacy and it is up to every single one of us to continue her legacy. Links to this post.
