When you touch a heart
or let your heart
be touched,
you touch infinity,
you discover
the unbound land
of love.

You discover
a heart is huge,
vast, and limitless,
like the deepest seas
and the highest mountains.

You discover
a sweet tenderness
a sacred heritage,
and a holy journey,
the most
brave embrace.

You discover you
And you discover me.
Together
we are
a precious treasure
of endless love.

My heart is your heart.

Gratitude & grace,

Magnificent 2011 is here mi amours, and I hope magnificent you are already:

Giving true heart-felt thanks for your life, just the way it is.  You and your life are perfect, whole and complete.  Because of your life ~ past, present and future ~ you have evolved to the most blessed state of your most genuine being, radiant, splendid and joyous ~ just the way you are. Your life couldn’t be better because all is wondrous in your world.

Exploring your dreams by living them in the present.  You’re seeing, feeling and expressing with every cell in your body, every thought, every breath you take, precisely all you wish and hope for, right now. You’re living your miraculous dream life RIGHT NOW. You’re focused on living the expression of deepest aspirations in this very moment.

I would invite you to allow for God/dess to take care of the hows, wheres, and whos of this beautiful journey called your life.  And I invite you to truly enjoy knowing your sweet dreams are here, right now, in spirit, divinely granted simply because YOU FOCUS your gorgeous self on living your most blissful, fulfilling and graced life NOW.

Allowing God/dess to graciously gift.   That’s all she ever wants to do ~ is give you everything wish, desire and hold precious.  Allow your intuition, your heart, and your divine knowledge to lead you.  The right choices, the ideal actions, and the most supportive people and events, arrive at exactly the most divine moment.  Allow your living dream to unfold, to flow into you, in divine time.

Focusing on living this very moment as joyously, authentically and radiantly as your soul wishes.  Let go and allow yourself to be blessed, over and over again, moment to moment, breath to breath.  You live a life of miracles, grace and joy, embracing and sharing your deepest dreams and successes.  Be thankful and rest in this truth in 2011 and always.

Thank you for blessing my life, for being who you are and for living your most cherished dreams now.  I love you.

Listening to luminous Diana Ross sing “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough, “ with a voice so strong your heart speeds, so powerful you feel yourself vibrate higher, I know how blessed I am to write to you on a warm spring Caribbean night my beloved.  Tonight I prepare to celebrate my fifty-first birthday.  Tonight I prepare to refresh my life, again, as I do every year.  Not long ago I wondered if age fifty would even be a life event.  Now it’s hard to believe such a belief entered my mind.  I understand now the depth of loss I must have felt, believing I would die young.  I had much more to learn, to experience, to embrace and to love.  Life was dark in those moments.  Life was powerfully dark.

Since childhood, I believed in an inherent goodness of our cosmos.  I believed in the grace of God/dess, in the true bliss of all that IS.  My beliefs were solidly founded.  Life was secure and steadfast.  My world view gleamed through the creative eyes of a light-hearted child-at-heart.  My curious soul sought the sun and kissed the stars.  My eyes naturally sought radiance, magical radiance.  My eyes enjoyed the brilliant play of life.  I breathed the embrace of love and a continual, warm flow of grace.  Life was dazzling play.  Life was fun.  I was joyful.  I was loving.  I was serene.  My sparkling eyes merrily danced through life, darting smiles.   Eager for the beauty of discovery, and comfortable residing in transcendent harmony, my soul spiraled as a perfect Fibonacci work of art, immersed in creating.

One day a shift came.  A tremendous shift, one I cannot recall, arrived.  Darkness descended.  The dark night of the soul called.   My eyes were to see the vast darkness, experience its fathomless edges, move with its angles and curves.  I was to venture beyond each boundary, again and again.  Relentlessly, I was called to delve intensely within.  My travels seemed an eternity, and yet timeless.  Courage I never thought I possessed was one of the most striking gems unearthed.  Beautiful focus and clarity were others.  After eight years of passionate questing, my eyes again found light.  The beaming light I knew as life again flooded my soul.  My honey-brown eyes rejoiced in our ‘coming home.’  My soul was sunnier than ever.   I looked back on my journey, attempting to measure.  An incalculable distance had been traveled.   No mountain was high enough.   I was home, steeped in authentic connection to my sweet soul.  As I surrendered my whole being and my full life, to God/dess, again I walked in grace.  All truly is good.

Now as I journey farther, deeper and even more boldly embrace love as whom we are, I feel the comfort of peace, deep, nurturing and relaxing – again.   I feel a powerful peace, a potent peace we all feel when we claim our deepest truth.  The unwavering commitment Diana Ross’ bold voice sings in my ear resonates, pulsating a truth experienced robustly.  No river deep enough.  No ocean wide enough.  Love and a life of soul inspire us to transcend, to explore and to craft.  We are a Fibonacci art work in the making – in the making of love.  Around and around we go, blissful and more fully loving with each turn higher.   We choose a lack of limits with each new level of loving expression.  We choose a robust life of soul, singing our truth, and sharing our love.  Choose and share brilliantly my beloved.   Enjoy every moment – moment to moment, breath to breath.  Even in the creative confines of boundless darkness, remember who you are.  Remember.  You are ingenious love, growing and servicing in miraculous ways, the eternal evolution of God/dess.  Be bold, my beloved.  Be beautiful and be blissful.  Believe me – ain’t no mountain high enough.  Soar!

Gratitude & grace

My God/desses may this communiqué find you happy, healthy and blissful. May my words, may my thoughts touch you as you live a luscious, loving life of abounding soul.

Today I am a woman. Today is International Women’s Day. Today’s communiqué is about what being a woman is to this spicy woman. A diagnosis of extensive breast cancer almost five years ago opened a gigantic door in my life. I was gifted an opportunity. I was given the chance to re-explore what being a woman is to me, the real me, a woman who was committed to life then and remains committed to life today. Today I hope to share with you a bit of who I discovered on my wondrous journey of coming home to the woman I am today – Ani, the glorious God/dess who walks her talk, moment to moment, breath to breath. The woman I am today can only hope to inspire you to come home to your essential, stunning self, now – right now.

When I rest deeply, silently in the womb of my watery, my earthy feminine, I am happy. I am at home. And home is a constant dance of celebration. Home is resplendent power. Home is God/dess grace. Home is the festival of life. Home is breathing everlasting love. Home is the sweet sway of my hips as I walk sunny, tropical beaches in Porta Del Sol. Home is the moistness of my lips on a hot day. Home is the azure Caribbean. Home is an island. The woman I am today lives at the sea. The God/dess I am today is a willing captive to her moods; to her embraces and her rejections. The woman I am today has held the ocean close to her heart and deep in her soul.

The woman I am today is radiantly alive. The God/dess I am breathes the woman I am today.

Somehow this woman, since the age of eleven, has known she would experience an amazing life, a life rich in the fertile re-emergent feminine. The God/dess I am today wants to gift value to our world. Today this woman, the woman I am, celebrates all women, from every corner of the globe, the remarkable women who, moment to moment, breath to breath, bring joy, beauty, stability, peace and love to their lives and the lives of others.

Today the woman I am is the hauntingly intoxicating fullness of the radiant silver moon on a dark winter’s night. Today I move the God/dess I am through this world, cascading my golden honey, dancing my delicious delight and tendering my kindhearted tenderness. The woman today moves the God/dess through this world, devastating bounds of justice, destroying inequities and denying death. Today the woman I am moves the God/dess and she moves me. We work together, closely together.

The God/dess is the woman I am today. We are aware, alive, ready and worthy. We are one. We all are one. You too are the woman I am. We are graced. We are loved. We are truth. We are love. Moment to moment, breath to breath: we are love. Love is what we are. The woman I am today knows intimacy. Today I am the woman, the God/dess, who is intimate with infinity.

Today the woman I am merrily lives soul. Today I am a woman who lives her pleasure as a God/dess and extends the invitation for a life of wordless bliss to you now. Today this wild woman of our world celebrates her invitation to you:

Come to yourself today, right now, in this precious moment of being, in this spark of true self, in this flicker of soul’s wisest expression. Come to yourself, come to us. Come to you. Come to me. Come together. We need each and every one of you. We need everyone we’ve invited. Today the woman I am invites every woman worldwide to a grand celebration of International Woman’s Day.

The woman I am today is a living angel, a divine messenger of love. I am a messenger of light, of bliss, and I am God/dess’s messenger. I am a messenger of life, bounteous, bold and brilliant. I am a messenger who asks you allow her to serve. The God/dess I am is a woman who serves her world. I serve my world. I serve God/dess. I serve myself. Order changes in a wicked whim of the God/dess I am. The woman I am today genuinely hopes each soul here with Gaia remembers self, our unending souls and our divine heritage.

Thank you, woman. Thank you, God/dess.

The God/dess I am knows how this world works, why and with whom. I am a woman of vast knowledge, acumen and discernment. The God/dess I am moves through the world successfully, creating and accumulating, and living a native life of cycles. I distribute. I sow.

The woman I am today sits here at her laptop, as her eight-week old kitten, Gigi, again tucks her scrawny body between the keyboard and a warm lap wrapped in crème jungle shorts this cool, rainy late afternoon. The God/dess I am today writes and listens to a tropical storm rain batter the roof, soak the lawns, beat the beach and toss the sea. The woman I am today wonders if a tsunami might hit this holy and enchanting island. Two earthquakes, one in Haiti, one in Chile, have come too close for comfort for the woman I am today. I am a woman who chose to live by La Mer, and indulge her in her colossal whims. La Mer is a wild, feral teacher. La Mer moves as we women can – without a question, without hesitation, in perfect knowing. La Mer knows her destiny, her purpose and her soul. La Mer lives her soul, moment to moment, wave to wave. La Mer gives life. La Mer takes life.

Today I am a woman who knows well the pulse of the sea, the succulence of the tropical seasons, and the sweet, yet sour cycles of a full life of soul. This woman, who is a God/dess but still learning, writes to you, wishing you the richness, the depth and the love that graces her day, moment to moment, breath to breath – tsunami or no tsunami. The woman I am today invites you to celebrate International Women’s Day today by living your sweetest life of soul – now. The God/dess I am today blesses you with only the best for your journey. The woman I am today wishes you were here, listening to soulful Aya, sipping hot, nutrient-rich green-lemongrass tea and burning frankincense to cloak the heavy wetness. The God/dess I am today wishes for peace, for love and for eternal grace on this damp day. The woman I am today wishes you were here with me, inhaling this fragrant moment in the Caribbean and talking our fancies.

Heart-blossoming love,

As I sit here in the morning sun, on a sprawling veranda cuddled by majestic tropical trees and colorful exotic birds; as I listen to Rio Cangrejal, one of the purest rivers Gaia offers us today, nestled in the mountains of the Pico Bonita National Rainforest of Honduras, rushing gently but wildly the truth of natural life, I wish you were here. I wish you could hear the river’s whispers; feel the breeze caress the majestic swaying trees, and hear the birds joyfully chirping and singing. And I pray. I pray you are living this quiet, yet refreshing bliss of being wherever you are now. I pray we all live this divine bliss of eternal, loving presence.

Welcome God/dess to the journey of Pelicans, Coconuts & Butterflies. Welcome to this moment in our lives together. Today is beautiful, rich in the myriad hues of nature, and in Gaia’s greatest gift: the kiss of life. We are here today to live our fullest selves and so we journey. Today, we journey together. Thank you for sharing your exquisite self with me. And thank you for allowing me to share my untamed self with you. An extraordinary amount of love and dedication has created this sacred moment. A moment we share. Together we share a cherished moment of spectacular life. Today we create anew our whole lives. Today we journey.

I reflect upon my astonishing life of the past four years, and I appreciate even more each and every moment, person and experience that contributed to such a sacred passage. From a dark moment of septic fever in a cold and uncaring ICU room that is the opening of my book, to last-minute treasured moments with my team as we lovingly pour over the manuscript and fuss over the simplest of details of each aspect of this bold project, and every moment in between. All moments. All choices. All acts of love unfolding. All moments are movements in a harmonic symphony of ever-expanding bliss and beauty. We are here. We are blessed. We are here! Welcome

It is with simple words, deeply felt, that I say welcome and thank you. Thank you God/dess, Universe, Life, Source, amazing team, pelicans, coconuts, butterflies, and you. Thank you for being here with me, truly. Thank you for co-creating this stunningly rewarding moment with me. Together we are creating yet another moment of love in our world today. Thank you for creating, with me, such joy.

I invite you to walk with me. Know that my heart is wide open and my journey has only just begun. Indolent cancer is not who I am today. Today I am a wild, passionate and relentless warrioress of love, of light and whatever lies ahead in the next and this very glorious moment. Each moment of my journey, like yours, will be welcomed and fully embraced as the gift it is always is. Walk with me as we make miracles out of moments and usher in a world of humane treatment for those with cancer and every other dis-ease. Stand with me for a Compassionate Cure for Cancer. Join me for a life of brilliant love, bountiful bliss and bubbling joy – for every living being forever on our new Earth.

If my message of welcome and gratitude speaks to you, if my path resonates with you, then please read Pelicans, Coconuts & Butterflies, and commit with me, walk with me, hand in hand as we discover our truth, our soul and a new way of being, moment to moment, breath to breath. And when your moment of co-creation with me, with Pelicans, Coconuts & Butterflies passes as you fly to new, unchartered skies, please “pay it forward.” Pass this site, Pelicans, Coconuts & Butterflies, along to those you love, and to those you find hard to love. Hold deep and unyielding compassion in your juicy, unfolding heart.

Embrace endless courage and conviction, as we walk together. Many steps await us, but together our combined voice of love brings unity to our world. Walk with me. And whenever you can, or you can’t: Smile. One smile is worth a trillion moments of love. Walk with me in this unbounded love called our lives.

With deep, heart-blossoming love,

Ani
