May all your dreams come true – here’s to wishful thinking!
"Wishful Thinking" If I had my wish I would be calm under pressure bright on the dark days, confident that every thing will be okay. Here's to our wishes may we cup them in hands of hope and gently release them like butterflies, watch them come true.

Perfection Is Over Rated
It is hard to find our place in the world. It is only through the lens of time that clarity is honed. But the years take something from us too. So there is never a place in time where we live in a perfect world. And that is not a bad thing. Perfection is over rated.
I don't carry a totem in my pocket but I have a secret place hidden in my heart that grounds me tethers me to reality gives me strength for the journey reminds me I am not alone in this even though I am alone in my own skin. Beneath the shadow of God's wing there is a place of stillness a place of Presence a place of knowing a place of being a place where no enemy can withstand a place where I return to come back to myself.
I saw a black bird today, soaring into the heavens with not a single flap of wing heart wide open, riding the currents the breath of God blowing him high high higher black wingspan stretched across deep blue oh, to ride the sky effortless weightless free how would that be?
If you’re looking for uplifting messages, encouraging words, and inspirational poetry, you’ve come to the right place.
Hi, I’m Karen Hessler, a poet and writer from south Louisiana. I live a quiet life surrounded by the beauty of nature. This beauty has helped me keep my spirits up during these long days of the COVID-19 pandemic, and through the terrible tragedies happening almost daily, locally as well as nationally and globally.
There is healing power in the beauty of nature. I call it “God’s art.” And guess what? You don’t have to go far to find this beauty. It is as close as your own backyard!
Look up, what do you see? Just notice…a blue sky is always nice, but storm clouds contain their own form of beauty. Shape shifting clouds are works of art. Look down, what is there? A blade of grass, a wild flower, a chunk of dirt, all part of the earth…a leaf, a bug, maybe a feather or a four-leaf clover.
What do you hear? Birds singing? Dogs barking? Maybe people talking, horns blowing, hammers pounding. Just notice.
Your perception of beauty will grow. Your ability to see beauty will expand. Your noticing skills will increase.
Suddenly you will see beauty everywhere. The ordinary will become extraordinary. The simple becomes profound.
And YOU will change. Your heart will expand. When you begin noticing and appreciating the beauty all around, you will grow… because BEAUTY GROWS. And you ARE beauty.
YOU ARE BEAUTY!
Keep blooming, my friend.
God bless you. ❤️
