Thank you for every moment I have the opportunity to live, to feel, to grow and to know without a doubt, love is what    it’s all about.
                          Kerri Elizabeth

The rhythm of the heart.
The beat is where it starts.
Get up and move to the sound of gratitude.
Thank your lucky stars for the spirit you are.
Thank you in the small things.
Thank you in the big things.
Thank you in all things
Creation is a beautiful thing.
Smiles go far.
Mean it when you give or recieve a hand shake or a hug.
Run and have fun, frolick in the sun.
Do you remember a time where you had no worry in site?
Take a moment to rest on the fact, that option allows peace and rest.
Thank you for the way my eyelids give me shade.
Thank you for the way my lips move and help me enunciate words to my inner hearts expression of verbs.
Thank you for the wrinkles that show a map of my smiles through the adventures and miles.
Thank you for the weight I pick up now and then,
to remind me I can let go again.
Thank you for all the times I looked at myself and cried, for reasons now I see are part of growing into the best part of me inside.
Thank you for the messengers that come into my life, to open up old wounds and remind me not to hide.
Thank you for the push to reach heights I’d never find.
Thank you for the lungs that keep me on this earth, they have been generous and given me endurance since the blessing of my birth.
Take a moment everyday to be thankful for everything you once thought was in your way, be in gratitude for the gift to build strength to let it go away.
Sunshine in depth!

Your Life is Your Sky

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Eagle

The world is your sky and you were made to fly, be precise and focus on the energy you exert to manifest exactly what you desire on this earth.

Kerri Elizabeth

The eagle again, wings wide open flying in.

A drive and then again the eagle flies in front of me wide open soaring past like a whisper in the wind.

Coming around the corner for a swoop down and then, seemingly with a glance he tells me more again.

The energy of his face surrounds my heart with a magical embrace.

What is happening is in front of me?

What is the eagle showing me?

Sometimes two at a time coming down right in line.

The confidence, the precise flight, the look in the eagle’s eyes.

What are they trying to say, everytime I leave home there is more in the day.

Near the hi-way or the lake, on a twisted road without a mistake.

Sitting in the living room, I can see so clear their perch.

They are aware and conserving energy for the greater good on earth.

His focus is precise, he maximizes on acceleration and flight.

Soaring through the sky, swooping down right past the height of my eyes, there is a sign.

Open your wings and continue to fly, the world is your sky.

Sending honor and respect always victorious and free.

Glide with focus, time and accuracy.

Take doubt out of the moment and open up your wings.

Life is your sky and you were made to fly.

Sunshine!

Wake Up to Dance

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Your life is your sunrise and your sunset, dance in it, cry in it, love in it, believe in it, it is the promise given to you, what you receive from it will be a legacy you will leave too!

Kerri Elizabeth

Wake up everyday to a smile, a laugh, a decision to have a blast.

Wake up to a day that you decided to join in all the way.

Wake up to the thankfulness of a glow and to smile through every ebb and flow.

Life is a blessing of twists and turns and our flexibility is pushed and returned.

Every bump, big or small invites creativity to how you decide to stand or fall.

In the depth of a moving heart, passion lives in every part.

Dance and sing in the rain.

Smile and laugh because you can.

Turn the music up loud.

Jump in every puddle around.

Get dirty in a tie and a dress.

Climb a tree instead of work or rest.

Be available to see, what life is offering you a choice to be.

Let a tear stray, there will be more along the way.

Every tear goes somewhere and like the sunshine behind a cloud, light will be found.

When nothing becomes a thought or place, everything is an option to take its place.

Roll your windows down and let your hair blow all around.

Feel the chill in the air and let it touch your skin everywhere.

Lay naked in the snow after a hot bath created from melted snow.

Feel the heat under the sun and the smell of the trees in a calm breeze.

Bury your feet in the sand and move your toes if you can.

Find meaning in your life in every single step, there is something in every sunrise and sunset.

Sun Shining for you in every hue.

A Whole Love

Tip your head and your heart to make sure love fills every part!

Kerri Elizabeth

Where lessons show up, strength will interrupt.

Where goals are set, the next step has to be met.

Where there is doubt, there is no trust to amount.

Where there is selfishness, understanding lacks graciousness.

Where there is accusations made, a moment turns into a grenade.

Where there is distraction, comes retraction.

Where there is a dysfunctional control, resistance and defense oppose it all.

Where unkind words become actions on every turn, love is lost and not returned.

Where dishonor is served, awareness is deserved.

Where love exists, time is not a miss.

Where a heart is protected, and arms are there to hold, you will together grow old.

Where your soul is set to fly, love will be bold but never take hold.

Where love is complete you are one before two meet.

Where two become one, someone came undone.

Two wholes are unbreakable strength.

When you lift a whole and share the roll , double bonded is forever a positive control.

Letting go of what doesn’t encourage you to be whole is the key to letting go of what doesn’t serve your goals.

Be in love with all you do and forgive the moments your learning too.

Lessons in Sunshine!

When Color Fades and Your Heart Reigns

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

20150512_132537

When black and white and color start to fade….your heart sees where your eyes perception changes shades.

Kerri Elizabeth

Is it blue or is it purple?

Is it nice or is it great?

Is it sad or is it disappointing?

Are you sick or do you have symptoms of being sick?

Are you tall or are you bigger than me?

Are you short or are you smaller than me?

Am I overweight or am I heavy?

Are you healing or are you broken?

Is your cup half full or is it half empty?

Do you see the sun first or the few clouds around it?

Do you see with both eyes or with your heart?

Do you hear noise or feel a vibration?

Is it grey or is a lighter shade of black?

Is it Yellow or a lighter shade of orange?

Do you see red or do you see Mauve?

Does it matter what color you see it?

Does it matter if you see it the same as me?

Does it matter if I see it the same as you?

What matters is that you are being true to YOU!

Be love in how you see.

Be love in what you do.

Be love in the way you move.

Be love in your truth.

When you love all of YOU, love will be all you do!

Intuitively Living To Feel Life

Feel the power of your life, live and breathe and believe!
Kerri Elizabeth

Feel your way through the day.
Every step and every breath send surges through the inner depth.
If you close your eyes in your day and choose a path to go a new way, intuition comes alive and a new way thrives.
Reach gracefully out with a slow and steady hand to feel the rays of the sun’s command.
Blink delicately in time with the vibrational beat of your hearts rhyme.
The gentleness of a thought out breath changes the movement of the chest.
When you feel the waves of intuition roll in ,the depth of freedom is believed again.
Freedom is in the depth and the width of our beliefs, suttely the intuition of our heartbeats.
Feel and breathe as you believe.
Sunshine on intuition, feeling life with nothing missing.

A Broken Wing Shows You More of Everything!

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

A broken wing is not everything, it shows you more than anything!

Kerri Elizabeth

A broken wing is not everything.

Taking flight in front of me a miracle in life so majestic and free.

Wings  spread open across to the sky as they leap without fear sending sounds that will pierce the deepest place you hear.

Without a plan or a thought, instinct takes over and in flight they take off.

The misty air, the clouds out there, it’s colder and colder every day and the dance of life is where they stay.

A miracle in her wings, gliding through the water with one wing, the other broken wing never stopped her from anything.

She carried her wing gracefully wrapped up on her back; she never missed a beat in her dance she would complete.

In the dance of life we can decide even with a broken wing, that dreams are made for everyone and miracles happen, even when we feel broken and undone.

Taking flight is not just in the wings that might, it is in the choice to choose life.

There will be inevitable ups and downs and there will be upside down smiles and right side up frowns, be the miracle that takes flight, leaving behind the fear that might.

Freedom is in the soaring of your soul, even with a broken wing that is not everything.

Sunshine on your flight!

To Be Calm and Still

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

To be calm inside is to feel the stillness even when the winds blow or the sun glows.

Kerri-Elizabeth

In the calmness of my heart the river of love flows.

In the calmness of my mind the sunshine glows.

In the stillness of my body, I feel the whisper of the wind.

In the gap between now and then I feel the moment I’m in again.

In the flow of the day I can say, no one will ruin what I feel today.

In the worry of yesterday, I lose my today.

In the plans of tomorrow I can say, those things may change on the way.

I used to spend my day figuring out everyone else’s way.

Then someone said to me, “how many hours do spend a day, helping others find their way?”

I love to help others along the way, especially my children; they have been my reason for each day.

Now I can teach them, that we can only give what we have, making sure I gain what I want to give is first my responsibility while I live.

Complaining about what you don’t have is only time spent away from decisions you must have.

Waiting for someone else to lead your way is letting go of yourself and the only way that ultimately gives you freedom in your day.

Make a stance for your own life and expect there will others that will stomp there feet to the beat of their own defeat.

Your energy goes where your thoughts go, what you think of most grows the most.

Are your thoughts where you want growth or are they where you want change the most?

Sunshine on your day!

Awareness Is Awareness and explains Awareness

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Awareness and “I” are one chord in the orchestra that never misses a beat and holds strong through defeat, It will meet you where you are and never go far, it is there to see and will always “Be”, turn up your sound and you will hear, the song inside is “I am” not “you and me”.

Kerri Elizabeth

As my soul awakens and my body and mind join in song with my soul, I hear every note of my own orchestras beat.

When there are no others I am aware of my space, when there is no sound I can hear my heart race.

Awareness is when others are there and you still are just as aware.

When the windows shutter from the winter wind and the raindrops fall over and over again, I am aware to spare a moment is to leave awareness unfolded.

When I am aware of my inner flow, beauty has an outer glow.

To release “me” to “I” gives insight inside for “me” to go away and “I” to reside.

When awareness is, “I” and not, “you” and “me”, then the darkness of the day and restless nights , pass through your light, without a shadow left insight.

Think about this moment now, are you aware of “I” or aware of the darkness that “me” is addicted to inside?

What are you aware of now?

When awareness is there to bare, there is no place for darkness there.

When darkness is your “I” as awareness when your world is the stipulations of the storms in life, then your life becomes a storm of stipulations and strife, not an awareness of “I” but ownership of something that should be free to pass by.

Controlling a storm, holding the trees still, catching every leaf, barreling every rain drop, damming every river and lake so not to flood or make a mistake, is an addiction to tuning out the notes of your own voice and owning someone else’s choice.

When the storms can pass and leaves can fall, when the rivers flow and lakes become full, when the ocean roars and the sea births more, when “I” and awareness are one chord, the orchestra inside is born.

When witnessing “I” and not “me”, when awareness is awareness with a capital “I”.

When every feeling can pass through you as it is not, “I”, it is life’s song and is not meant to be owned but appreciated as a lesson passing by.

 Like the storms of creation, love them and learn from them and you can ask why, the answer will still never be, “I”, it is meant to be an addition to life, learn and listen to the song of life without drowning out your  “I”.

 I am an orchestra of my own awareness.

Sunshining my awareness!

Love IS and Always IS

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

2015-06-10 18.50.54-1

Love IS, without asking or denying, love is in the creation of life that never waivers on judgement or prejudices, it exists as it is, beyond your expectation.

Kerri Elizabeth

Love is more.

Love is the sun shining brightly and revealing color.

Love is the whisper of a tree in the wind, bending and bowing to the call of nature.

Love is the ripples on a lake, sending an electric charge of wonder without any expectation of your delight.

Love is the pine cone that drops to the ground to blanket the earth without cost to add warmth and offer new growth.

Love is in the rain that drops its presence in the mood and intensity it chooses without needing permission or discipline.

Love is in the rivers that flow through the lands showing purpose without a thought.

Love is in the stars and moon that need no arranging or fixing and offering an arrangement full of magical wonder and  imagination.

Love is the clouds that bring moisture and covering to the earth, never hearing from the sun,” can you go away or stop being what you were made to be”.

Love is in the depth of the ocean that holds an abundance of energy and life and surrounds it with landscape much like the arms of a  father or mother’s protection, giving it boundaries and support without defining it as separate or the same, large or small, fierce or passive.

Love is in the air that generously continues without ever needing approval, it just is.

Love is in the sea breeze that partners with exhilaration and offers us an opportunity to feel it or deny it and is never controlled by our presence, it just is.

Love is in the storms that create change and rearrange our surroundings, often perceived as destroying and challenging our perceptions of loss, life, material and emotional attachments, our strengths and our weaknesses without fear of rejection.

Love is in the mountains so brilliantly placed for purpose and intent, offering us the opportunity to climb, explore, reflect, grow, learn, rest, recover, feel excursion, build strength and create new thoughts, inviting us with its presence, never forcing or expecting you to see it.

Love is in the creation of life not in the judgement or expectations, success or failures, feelings or thoughts, ideas or perceptions, objections or compliments.

 Love is before, during and after anything is attached or detached, love is more than, love is and everything else is our own idea, changing, wavering, doubting, withholding, giving, receiving, rejecting, objecting, defence and judgement labelled good or bad or otherwise.

Love is always with no beginning or end, it IS.

Contemplate the depth of Sunshine that never stops shining just because you choose to.
