Emotional depth within sunflowers and the Roots of Perception

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

“Sunflowers seek the sun, yet their strength lies in their unseen roots. Depth isn’t just what we see—it’s what we feel.”

A close-up painting of a sunflower with vibrant yellow and white petals radiating from a dark center, symbolizing warmth and positivity.

Whether in a tree or a sunflower, with eyes closed or open, color there or gone, roots are the traveling wonder with emotional depth.

~Kerri-Elizabeth~

Depth perception colored or not
Precision and emotion, traveling wonder
Emotions spill upon a silently colored moment
Stillness presents depth with or without the amazement of color
Can you see beyond your vision
Where depth is found by the distance a root grows
Surrender your vision to your heart, where emotional depth and perception truly intertwine
Where emotional depth perception sets you apart
How deep do your roots grow
Where are your roots and which way did they go
How deep have they grown
A tree does not say, this way
It is after the storms where depth is gained
It was in the heart where emotional depth perception remains

The Priceless Love of Grandchildren

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth
Grandchildren are a wisdom and soul level of understanding that give a
new depth to love.

A lifetime of healing through a grandson’s heartfelt message

All drawn out from the heart

A grandsons interpretation

A gift for his Nina (me, his word for grandma)

Felt to my core

In detail he drew a journey

So close to my own

How would he know

He drew from his heart

A soul level child

A depth misinterpreted by emotion

I see as intuitive wisdom

He’s a gift with a message

Listen, he carries a heart key

A grandson’s heartfelt message can reach more than most will ever even see

The love of grandchildren

Each with a gift of sharing their heartfelt messages

Listen, more importantly, hear

Stand with their experiences

They teach at a depth

Unmatched

Love in the Petals

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Where your petals grow I want to go

What are you looking for

What moves you closer to the sun

Is there something more you know

Does the moon move you

Do you stare upon the stars

I want to know your secrets to growth

I want to sit with you on a windy day

Swaying to natures harmony

Your center sings a song

Your petals dance along

Together let’s be

Free to grow

~Kerri-Elizabeth~

Behind the Closed Door

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

I always love the saying, “when one door closes , another one opens. “

It’s so true in life outside and inside, I have been infatuated with doors my entire life, the beauty of what they represent but also the frame work, the absolute amazing styles and the many ways they are used in art .

I traveled years ago to see my friend in Sweden and one of the most beautiful things of so many there is the stunning doors. I couldn’t get enough photos, they were truly amazing and so full of art.

When I see a door that stops me in my tracks ,it always sparks a curiosity, is what’s behind the door as beautiful as the start to the journey to venture behind it?

It always represents the inner work to me, it may seems beautiful and creative , but what’s behind it?

The beauty of opening a door when it’s represents itself is no matter what’s behind it, you have a choice to close it or open it, you can appreciate just the door or you can find out more.

Do you want to find out more?

Change Requires YOU

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Change is life, no matter what we figure out, where do we start and do we finish? It is all the foundation of a place you continue to grow. It is all you know, all you experience all that un-done-ness….. the beginning with no end… a continuation to evolve from every situation.

It is inevitable to change, we experience and learn from the changes or miss the opportunities it gave us in the deciding “I’ll never change, I am who I am and I’ll never change for anyone”.

It isn’t for anyone, its for everyone, we share this earthly place!

It is the resistance or control we hold (not to change)….. a resistance to inspiration we may not be able to reach or hold, a lack of worthiness inside us that holds us hostage from bravery and courage to be more than we are today.

Take a look at the world and what moves you. Being uncomfortable allows us to learn things we never would and always choosing where we think we most thrive limits our opportunities to grow.

Thriving doesn’t just happen where we feel bliss, it exists in the unknown or continuation (actually more so), in the un-done-ness, the stage to dance and the opportunity to be more than we are today, to add new steps with familiar steps and create more. Turn the music on and sing, dance and connect to the changes that re arrange us!

“NOT”, changing for anyone means YOU too!

What do you see?

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Are you someone that sees more of what’s ahead than what’s in front of you?

Balancing seeing ahead and being present are all part of loving every moment too…..right?

This path is one with many twist and turns, healing and failing, falling and bouncing, looking up and down and side to side wondering in moments , are you really present or dreaming ahead.

All are necessary and all require you to be there, just because your dreaming ahead doesn’t mean your not present, it means your presently dreaming ahead.

The most important part is, are you aware that’s what you’re doing? There is where presence requires more of you.

So dream ahead with intention.

Feel at a depth that grows you.

Receive at a depth that knows you.

Learn at a depth that shows you.

Believe at a depth that restores you.

And love every moment that calls you, just be aware of how long you visit.

Do you think you spend more of your day aware or going through the motions of life more unaware?

Can you share your thoughts on this?

Adventure within the gaps

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Are you scheduling your time to serve your purpose and goals?

When organization of time is left to chance , chance will win.

Some days there are interruptions, distractions and things just don’t happen to schedule, however the organization of time allows you to start to feel a pace set, overwhelm starts to disappear and organization begins to lead you to your goals.

Are you getting up a little earlier to give yourself time to reflect on your day ahead with intention and purposefully going into each appt. and goal for the day with presence , or are you thinking about the 100 things you need to do?

Journaling to release the ideas and thoughts that are circling your mind and causing overwhelm will surprise you while gratitude even on the worst days.

“Write It” To reclaim your power… thoughts become ideas , ideas become goals and goals become clear when you journal.

Do you journal daily, weekly or at all?

What time is your favorite time to reflect and write?✍️

Just a reminder my book “Write It “ by Kerri Elizabeth … is available on Amazon and Barnes and Nobles and makes a wonderful gift.

Focal Point

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Have you ever had a disagreement with someone while you’re looking at the exact same thing and both of you see it completely different or you both hear something and hear it completely different?

How can that can even be possible, you’re looking right at it, or hear it clearly and so do they.

Have you ever continued to disagree, trying to convince the other person your point of view or look at them like they lost their noodles, feeling your adrenaline rushing as you’re trying to make them see and hear and feel what you are, needing it as if you need air for that moment?

Frustration , misunderstanding, different interpretations and now a full blown meltdown you can’t get them to understand or see what you see. Rejection sets in, abandonment, turmoil inside is triggered and love is left behind by emotions you had no idea where there.

Over time and through growth and experience the solution is found, seen, worked on, you’ve now come to a place these things just don’t bother you, until one day it shows up again……

How do you react or respond ,not to the other person, but to YOU?

Our reactions and responses are purely from our own point of view, we have to make room for change, recreating , healing and intentionally wanting to be a better version of ourselves , while leaving room for others to do the same, “Write It” and you’ll see.

Has this ever happened to you?
