BUSY or LIVING

Posted on May 22, 2019February 7, 2023 by Kerri Elizabeth

Is life experiencing you or are you experiencing life

~Kerri-Elizabeth~

The rejection dance…..

I hurt so I’ll take time away

I’m mad so I’d rather not talk

I’m in pain so I want to be alone

I’m busy so hold on

I’m overwhelmed I’ll talk to you later

My phones ringing

The kids are screaming

My spouse needs me

My boss is calling

My animals are waiting to be fed

I have to walk the dogs

The kids have activities

I have to make dinner

I’m hungry

I’m tired

I have to do laundry

I need to vacuum

I have to get papers in order

I need to post on social media at least for business

I have to workout

I need to mow the lawn

Pick up dog poop

Weed the gardens

We need groceries

My cars a mess

The garbage has to go out

Oh ya I need a shower

Do I have time to wash my hair this week

I need a coffee

I forgot I had that appointment

Oh no I double booked myself

Oh ya the event

Oh shoot I have three meetings this week

A to do list that goes three pages

I need to call my parents

Oh ya I have to help my parents

My kids want time

My friends need time

My spouse needs time

So rejection follows

It dances in the hearts of our loved ones

Life events own you

There is no control

Your controlling, controlling your schedule

Communication

Who needs that, just text

There’s an app for everything

Download another one, it’ll keep you in touch

Watch your favorites by video

Touching or hugs get you arrested

Gestures are all lost in assumption

Give and take has been crammed into a Marco polo app

There is no time for kids to experience nature

Grandparents are no longer a legacy

Unless you live within 10 miles

There is no time for the silence that heals you

Where is everyone at dinner

There are no family dinners

Phones are not on walls

They are permanently attached to the body with fancy phone attachments

Everyone is a life coach and everyone has an answer

In laws and outlaws fight for holidays

Children wait for gifts and have no idea moments are priceless

Holidays are an eruption of anxiety and arguing over schedules

Splitting each human into more pieces

Nature is no longer a way of life

Real food doesn’t grow its scientifically modified

Fast food and fantasy are peoples truth

Farms, barns and real labor are almost extinct

It’s a life children see on an iPad

It’s a google search so not to get dirty

It will just add more work to the daily routine

I need an island vacation

I need another vacation from my vacation

I miss the kids

Hurry home

Wish you were still at the island

Where is prayer

Where is God

Oh ya I forgot my prayers

Hurried through life

Then, there I was in front of my King

Humbled and unable to change a thing

I missed my mother’s face

My father’s hug

My children never experienced summers at their grandparents

My hair is grey

I’m wrinkled

My muscle tone escaped

My brain is slower

I’m slower

I’m unsure what happen

I missed it

I was too busy being busy to realize I could have been living

SUNSHINE

I have so much to say on this subject, our legacy of life is getting lost in cell phones, iPads, computers and conversation is luck of the draw. Social media connects us but it does NOT CONNECT us! Busy schedules push you through your day so you can get a one week vacation to want another when you get back.

Kids are too busy now days to learn what a farm is, to plant real food, to hike in the mountains and experience where fire wood comes from. Knives are not allowed anymore to carve sticks and create something from nature. REAL guns aren’t allowed so we buy our kids toy guns and tell them at the same time guns are bad.

Food is so modified our children don’t even know what real food is anymore, they think the modification means real. We have no idea who is a boy or a girl anymore and wonder why our society is so confused.

I don’t usually burst out of my sunshine in to a human rant of frustration but life is for LIVING and experiencing and I cant believe the changes in how I grew up to now and the changes that are driving America to DEVASTATION!

Thoughts?

Sunshine for you!

HEART SHOT

Posted on March 30, 2019April 1, 2019 by Kerri Elizabeth

Shoot from your heart it will always give you the best shot!

~Kerri-Elizabeth~

Introduced to the skies
Viewed from the lenses of my eyes
Shot with my heart
Melted in the leaves
Embraced by a breeze
Open to a peaceful ease
I was once fully there
Among the blooms
Looking for you
I saw you
In the bloom

SUNSHINE

I’m a human experiencing life, experiencing me.

For the last almost 2 years since my son got his wings I have completely forgotten who I am, how to breathe , smile and get super excited and why I ever worked out and was super healthy and what it did for my soul and my mind and my body.

I wish I could have chosen my feelings somedays, I know it has been said “you chose it all”, DO WE?

Well I sure the heck didn’t choose my son to have cancer and then jet off to heaven before I was ready and if you think I had the power to change grief, THINK AGAIN!

We choose what we can and then we choose how to change the emotion based on an experience. It doesn’t mean it changes, it just means our thoughts are trying to work it out and create a new perspective so we can survive and preferably thrive.

Trauma changes your cellular level, your hearts memories, your responses are not all immediate. You must train your body, muscles, nerves, thoughts and beliefs to do something different.

I used to believe, just believe it.  If you believe it, you also must be able to follow up.

When my son left( that D word is just not in my vocabulary) I’m telling you that my life was sucked out of me like a fighter jet going through me at double the capacity of reality.

NOTHING seemed to be left… I was wiped OUT inside and OUT.

Im still wiped out in so many ways and Im not going to pretend I’m NOT.

What I am going to tell you is that being present in NOW , being present in the reality of where I am at is how I’m moving and healing. NOT IN where anyone else thinks , but where I know.

YOU CAN ONLY GROW FROM WHERE YOUR REALITY IS! QUIT trying to grow from someone else’s space or the space in which you think you’re supposed to be.

BE WHERE YOU ARE AND LOVE THE JOURNEY IT’S THE ONLY WAY… don’t waste time in the pretending you’re somewhere you’re not. BE where you are, that is the only route to where you want to go!

Just don’t forget their is a route and make sure you keep moving!

Sunshine for you!

HE IS EVERYWHERE

Posted on October 17, 2018 by Kerri Elizabeth

screenshot_20181017-1051071291327803.jpg

 

Emotions are not road blocks, they are the hardware of your internal compass guiding you to success, malfunctioning happens in the chaos before entering presence.

~Kerri Elizabeth~

 

Your my wind

The sun I see

Waterfalls in front of me

Your the rumble of the earths call

Your in nature centering it all

Your the waves in the ocean

My emotions

Your my heart beating

Your the footprints I see before me

Your there

Your everywhere

I saw you fly by

Leaving me a jet-stream in the sky

Your in the crickets singing lullabies

I hear you whisper, “Momma don’t cry

Look at me, wild and free

Success momma, is a place, you’ll see

Your set free to be

No separation from the land and sea

I’m with you MY MOMMA eternally”

SUNSHINE

 

As some of you know and others will hear along the way, my son passed on to his new place on July 30, 2017. There is never a day I don’t talk about him and never a day I won’t. Some people don’t know what to say, others don’t know how to hear the joy in the tears when I share. So silence has been my healing space, a place where Zak meets me face to face.

Silence gives room for emotions without the interference of chaos.

The capacity to understand is beyond me, I simply ride the wave and learn as I go. Emotions take over most of the time. I used to think I had to learn to control  the emotions. In my meditation and silence I agonized in thought I had to accept(which I haven’t and as of now, it not on my list of somehow) that my son is gone. Because to me what works, is believing in the signs he’s here, it’s different that’s clear. However that’s my reality and the way the movie of emotions play in the silence inspired by every wave.

Accepting another way wasn’t working for me, instead I gave in, surrendering to the silence within, visualizing emotion in space, allowing it to be, as if it was a movie in front of me telling me a story, it showed me something profound.

Its your movie, its your story, let it play, let it make sounds, let it guide your way. Surrender to the silence where the movie can play without interference of the chaos in the day. This is where the chaos stops playing and emotions can be set free to find their way successfully.

It is up to you to allow emotions to have wings, they need room to fly, to experience and thrive, they can’t grow or go if they are trapped in the chaos of our minds.

Silence is stillness within, it doesn’t have to be without movement or a physical paralysis, it is within, a decision to let go of the wings you tie down on each emotion found. Let them fly in the sky, let them be free to be, to find there flight path succefully.

 

Sunshine for you!

Explore the Heart

Posted on September 28, 2018September 28, 2018 by Kerri Elizabeth

Some make an impact, some just pass by, some will be willing to share and explore life and the depths that give our souls flight.

~Kerri Elizabeth~

There will be people that will cross your path
Others that will help pave your path
There will be moments of pain
And tears that seems as if your standing in the rain
Others will only experience the smiles
And never know the reasons or the depths of why
There will be people that impact your direction so profoundly
Others that will simply pass by
Never knowing whats behind our eyes
Why doesnt always have an explanation
It is the willingness to travel life
Explore hearts
Be awake to hear your soul
Opening YOU
For more

SUNSHINE

 

My daughter in Law Anita is nothing less than one of the most profound and loving woman I have ever met in my life. Her dedication, her loving manner and willingness to go above and beyond is nothing less than the purest loving heart we all strive to connect to.

Her love for my son that continued on, on July 30,2017 gave me such a joy to know that he was able to experience that before he left this earth to continue on his next journey. He is so present with us and the stories and honor will forever be awakened and loved and forever be firmly planted in our experiences and lives.

In honor of you ALWAYS ZAK I will love and protect your wife as your mother and exactly how you asked me to and thank you in all gratitude for bringing her into our lives.

Your MOMMA forever and always in every lifetime!

Memories in the Mist

Posted on July 27, 2018July 28, 2018 by Kerri Elizabeth

Everything becomes a memory, make your present worthy of it!

~Kerri Elizabeth~

As the mist rolls down my face
A memory embraced
Where unfiltered fun was at our finger tips
Where we raced grocery carts at night
Where trees had secrets
And dusk was not our weakness
Where coins held doors
And smiles never stopped
Where roadtrips held memories
That last for centuries
Where soul talks lasted hours
And notes where written on napkins
Where we defined spontaneous
In a constant mist of laughter

SUNSHINE

When you take time to embrace you and heal, you find out healing is a part of you, it’s the purest acceptance of love.

~Kerri Elizabeth~

 

OMGOSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I have written this weekly addition 10 times  over the last few weeks and within a day it changes again. I don’t send it because as soon as I start writing it becomes a journal of words thrown up like confetti trying to find its place from space.

I woke up this morning and thought, OMGOSH I can’t think straight, I’m all over the board and have so much on my mind it’s like listening to 10 different languages competing for the lead roll.

So, the main eruption of craze, is my son’s one year passing coming July 30th.

I know what I’m doing in honor of him and its going to be epic. I’ll share with you after in photos and emotions that are crashing and rising like tides on a stormy sea.

The growth I have had in the last 6 months is due to the most unconditional love I have had around me. Two people (my Aunt Jeri and Uncle David aka AJ and UD) that believed I was worthy to be loved fully and complete with a space to heal and breathe. When I felt none of that, they some how held the knowing I would find my way, even when I wasn’t sure.

Trusting me to leap into my life again and find what moves me.

I could write a book on the impact these two have made on my life and the love I have learned and experienced through them. It holds a category all on its own.

I’ve taken a couple trips back to see my kids and gather my things and make arrangements to move to a new area, to start new, to leave behind my memories that haunt me and find my purpose again.

THEN THIS HAPPENED!!!!

What an interesting journey it has been, I have never learned so much in such a short time as I have in this last year. THE ONE most pivotal change for me, is one I cry my eyes out with, as I am working on finding words to express it, and hoping it will touch and change something for you too.

Losing my son is obviously the worst thing I have ever experienced but in that it is also the best thing I have ever experienced and as I say that, it holds so many emotions.

Hell no, losing him can never hold the “best thing”, do not mistake my words but listen to my heart.

He changed me!

My son did NOTHING in a small way, not one thing. When he left this earth he gave me something else equally important to this tragic experience. He guided me back to my purpose.

I thought I lost it and I have been digging deep for it. Writing, traveling, researching, talking, sharing, loving, letting go, you name it. What I found in searching my new purpose was that I was searching for something that was NEVER LOST.

I left my purpose and then cried about not having a purpose,WTF? 

How did I miss this one?

When I arrived where I am now in Feb. (the short story is in a previous weekly addition) I was so incomplete, sick, tired, unbelievably lost in every way shape and form.  I barely remember the details of how I got here, but it consisted of small things like, being left in the mountains of Utah followed by ultimatums that would later change my path drastically, snow storms alone hundreds of miles from home and courage beyond what I ever imagined I had.

It consisted of friends that love me and believe in me, friends that reminded me who I am, friends that leant me a hand and gave me unbelievable inspiring energy that lifted and showed me there is more.

It consisted of family and unconditional love, even when somedays they probably want to shake me out of it, but still give me a calmness of understanding to heal more than a moment in my life, but a lifetime.

I flew back to my children a couple weeks ago to stay a day and then get on the road for another adventure, to take photos and jump in lakes and do all the things I love so much.

But my life consists of rapid change and growth ALWAYS, I’ve surrendered to it, its what makes me, ME!

I ended up staying for a week and in that week I devoured time with my children, my grandchildren and friends and as I was there, life started to transform my purpose.

When my kids grew up I thought I lost my purpose, now what? Empty nest hit me like a ton of bricks, then Zak got sick, he needed me, that was purpose of course. Then he passed, all the kids are grown and everything I ever did I did because I was driven by my love for them.

After one year of Zak passing, crying, feeling ungrounded, (I’m still ungrounded somewhat, being completely honest) I’m finally feeling like I’m getting somewhere.

Something shifted this trip for me. My grandkids are growing so fast, our conversations where different, they wanted to ask questions that lead to more and more and more. I couldn’t get enough of it.

I wanted to answer every question and shared their facts with detail, they were authentically interested in the details of life, like how does a bee make honey?

Why do you live so far away?

Uncle Zak died Nina(thats me)…. ughhhh that one hit me like a ton of bricks.

I was experiencing memories left and right, where I raised my children, friends for life, stores I remember Zak parking his bike at the front door. I could hear his voice and see his face, hear his laughter, I passed our old houses where memories still run around the yard as if time stopped.

Then another jolt, a voice I know well, a history lesson of things I left behind, forgot somewhere and they were all surfacing as fast as I can say, WOW! I was back on my bike after a year, I was rowing 3000 meters daily and beat my time by almost 6 minutes within a weeks time. My kids were working out daily and asking me questions and asking me to watch their form and show them specifics.

My fire was being lit, I was needed, I was with my purpose.

IT NEVER LEFT, I DID!

Then a visit to Zak’s memorial space. A shift, another shift, I was shifting faster than a race car on a race track.

I was about to get on a plane and go home and I felt like I was leaving home at the same time I wanted to go home. Chaos took me over and when I got on the plane I wrote Zak. OH MY GOSHH I miss you more than words, or stars in the sky among the infinite missing that I know will never end, Zak I need you NOW.

WHAT NOW??????

Then it hit me!

My purpose never left, I DID!

Everything in me was fighting, I don’t want to go back, I don’t want to go back, the list of pros and cons where sparring for the championship.

Start over AGAIN?

Dear GOD I’m so tired of starting over, plant my feet and let me grow my roots again with purpose!

THATS IT, MY PURPOSE!

I was flying away from it and it hit me like a ton of bricks.

“I don’t want to live where my purpose is, WHAT the HELL Kerri Elizabeth????”

I can travel, I can go back and forth to my purpose, sure I can. I can build another purpose I told myself, their grown, shouldn’t I have another purpose by now? I mean, who’s to say they won’t move away? I don’t like the dark winters? Why do I need to live there all winter? Why am I limiting myself? Why am I stressing?

Its written in stone, my purpose is my children and grandchildren and loving others, being in love again and never giving any of that up.  I love, sharing my inspired heart that has been seasoned with sugar and spice to give more to others, that is my purpose.

I was searching myself for a new purpose and my purpose was still the same, it’s what I created from being me, its the extensions of me, the lives I birthed and the love I know how to share.

Zak brought in a voice that shocked me into position and blew me wide open.

I remember in surgery when I had my intestine removed in 2005( I think), I was under for 12 hours, not what they wanted or planned for but everything went wrong and they couldn’t get me out of anesthesia. The hospital had to call in a voice of my past to shock me back to life.

It worked!

Thats what happened again!

Stop searching, what your searching for has already found you and never left you.

Look to see where you went!

SUNSHINE

Core Restored

Posted on July 20, 2018July 20, 2018 by Kerri Elizabeth

2007-2018-12173532878803000311686661056.jpeg

In the core you will find the rhythm of restoration!

~Kerri Elizabeth~

Mingle into your core
Where life is restored
Where chaos tries to hide
And love thrives
Where confusion and alignment mingle
Where calmess and anxious tango
Where defeat speaks in the same space our hearts beat
What if you just danced with the rawness of that truth
What if trying to prove one of them didn’t exist
Meant accepting space to breathe
And both were able to converse with ease
And the shouting stopped

WILD and FREE

Posted on May 15, 2018May 15, 2018 by Kerri Elizabeth

Release your inner gravity, where your heartbeats wild and free!

~Kerri Elizabeth~

Run into your inner wild side
Leap as if gravity released
Allow your heart to race
Feeling adversity erase
And create a space
Seldom seen
A place where hearts soar
And love is free
A place given and yours to recieve
It runs within you and me
Snapshots in motion
Moments where you’ll remember to breathe
Where gravity is released
Soulfully free

SUNSHINE

Weekly Addition #4

Posted on April 13, 2018April 13, 2018 by Kerri Elizabeth

_DSC5638-3

Through the eye of my lens, my heart sees and dances with my soul!

~Kerri Elizabeth~

This week I’ve decided to share some highlights of my photography journey…a passion that never received full wings and is well on its way now. Between finishing my studying, getting out to practice shooting and staying diligent with my healing and gaining new strength daily, I have to say, being behind a lens and viewing the world in even more detail than I ever did before is a heart opening experience I am over the moon excited about.

I have viewed everything mostly at a soul level, hence my writing. I escape my minds clutter, reach into my heart and dance with my soul and it flows into my writing.

Now I have an amazing dance shifting my entire world and its pure magic, my photography and writing have married themselves in internal LOVE!

1304-2018-09132139742529601241370490849.jpeg

This is my Angel, she was a prescription from the Dr. after I lost my 24-year-old son, July 30.2017. She loves everything outdoors and is my sidekick, literally an extension of my soul and a gift I’ll be forever grateful for. She teaches me so much about what it is to be free to be.

1304-2018-0915213796020557164394664494.jpeg

Healing all happens when you realize you exist to live, not just live to exist. I am so much more in love with life than I ever have been by diving into my photography and going back to school to master it.

1304-2018-09542132965469636761603477333.jpeg

Eating well all the time is a beautiful gift, eating well some of the time is your choice, eating well today is an opportunity, not a rule. Try it when you choose, stressing about it won’t help heal. Healing includes creative color, joyful appreciation, and gratitude for the foods you eat and then is when eating well heals.

1304-2018-1029215328532224561766031291.jpeg

This is one of 5 horses that have changed my life. When I arrived in this healing space, my heart was pulled to this horse, then to another, then all of them to me and then me to all of them. I was petrified at first, I knew nothing about horses except they’re big and have amazing teeth. The journey through the relationship with these horses is a story in itself. One I continue to learn from daily. 1304-2018-09042137255688638801573475587.jpeg

This goat couldn’t get close enough, he’s so adorable. I’m in love with their personalities and the sweetness they behold and the enduring kisses that never stop.

The personality, tenacity, stance of authority and love all radiate at once.

Just a reminder going into the weekend and next week, living consists of whatever you choose it to be, are you living, really living and is your heart and soul dancing?

Unexpected Soul Connections

Posted on April 10, 2018April 10, 2018 by Kerri Elizabeth

Love through the soul is the most moving love to know!

~Kerri Elizabeth~

Our eyes have locked since we met

I can feel your hugs through this fence

You already know my heart

You don’t miss a word

Even a whisper and I’m heard

I’m here

The night arrives

I hear you call

You know I’m near

You’ve helped me breathe

Your love frees me

We’re here

Heart talks

Stillness

You don’t rush me

I don’t rush you

We arrive daily to this space

Healing is embraced

Anxiety is erased

Somehow you just know

My pace

Easing me into the most peaceful place

SUNSHINE

 

PS. My kitty Angel is always in tow, she’s the extension of my soul.
