Strength in the Center

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

The lesson in the reflection is not seen but heard, it is hidden in the silence of your words!

Kerri Elizabeth

 

It is in the voice where the vibration will rise

It is in the stillness when there is a sudden distraction of surprise

It is in the decision, not the defense where you discern

Where enlightenment lights the way

Offensive reactions go away

Where understanding is no longer spoken in words

Where trust is as solid as gravity and not considered a verb

Where the human distraction to compress, stress and not rest,

transforms the literal short, sparked by the persistent bending of cords

The human form is only as strong as the light you see

Loving you in all you do, forgiving you and moving through, learning to be more of you, in all you do there is one direction to follow through, YOU.

Kerri Elizabeth

Loving you.

When the sky is blue I see you.

When the grass is filled with a green tone too.

I’m loving you.

When the silence is clear.

When all I hear is nature’s voice near.

I’m loving you.

When the sunshines on my face.

When my heart enters a race.

I’m loving you.

When the rain is pouring.

When the wind is snoring.

I’m loving you.

When the day is all you want it to be.

When love is all you see.

I’m loving you.

When nothing seems to flow.

When the day has bumps and you don’t know.

I’m loving you.

When the waters are rough.

When pushing through is tough.

I’m loving you.

When the energy is clear.

When your on task and drawing goodness near.

I’m loving you.

When you know inside.

Your passion is alive.

I’m loving you.

The sun will set and the sun will rise.

Everyday is a wonderful surprise.

I’m loving you.

Be the best you.

Be loving to you!

Shooting and Fishing and Loving Life

An unpaved road and a calling on the soul, follow the direction it wants you to go, it’s where you find the key to be whole.

Kerri Elizabeth

She was a small girl with a hatchet of her own.

Looking for things to cut up then skipping every stone.

She loved fishing and hooking the worm, she learned to catch at every bend and turn

She lived in clear skied mountains, where the air was safe to breathe.

She walked the forest daily making friends with the trees.

Memorizing bushes and berries and smelling the rivers breeze.

She was carefree and fearless and ran barefoot everywhere.

Running as fast as she could feeling every rock was her dare.

It seemed time was never about the clock, she never cared.

Time was filled with moments and there was no such thing as going around the block.

Space was outside where two rivers intertwined.

Her irish setter Jake was never far behind.

Playing was feeling the earth and learning nature’s real purpose.

Finding frogs and shooting her bb gun over the river was daily fun.

Creating something new was always on her mind.

She would make anything out of something she would find.

Twine and beads, wood and nails, saws and hammers, even leaves that fell.

Records instead of TV lead music to her soul.

Singing as loud as she could was a daily goal.

Making fires was more than heat to her feet.

It started a flame from a ficker she was born to repeat.

Many years have passed now her children are all grown.

Grandchildren came healing her empty nest syndrome.

More years have passed and a longing from her soul.

Lead her to a mountain where the flame would take control.

Two hearts and two lives, two kindred souls.

Finding out that we grew up to find each others hand to hold.

She has found her mountain man the key to her heart.

We will be fishing and shooting and loving our life.

I LOVE YOU ROB JAMES!

A Challenge Turns To A Celebration Of Change

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

If it doesnt challenge you it wont change you

What is a challenge today will often become a celebration another day!

Kerri Elizabeth

Sometimes your time goes perfectly smooth and other times you look back and it was too easy to lose.

Sometimes there will be a friendship that can stand the times, others will go along the line.

Sometimes there will be approval and other times there will be the no that shows you another way to go.

Sometimes there will be a hug and other times a tear.

Sometimes there will be smiles and often times you go an extra few miles.

Sometimes there will be something you just can’t figure out and you must keep moving about.

Sometimes love is felt and sometimes we have to remember love starts inside ourself.

Sometimes love is given, sometimes it’s received.

Love always begins inside of what we believe.

Sometimes we forget when we tell someone else what to do, we need to look inside of us too.

Sometimes we look at the sky and other times it feels too high.

Sometimes we laugh and other times we cry.

We all have a different why.

Ultimately everyday starts, goes and ends, how will you choose to experience it now and again?

Are You In Overdraft….

When you overdraft yourself the debt has an account and a password protected by you and no one else.

Kerri Elizabeth

When the clouds do their part the sun shines on your heart.

When one story ends another bubbles up to begin.

Look for the sun in the sky.

See your faith and fly.

Smile even when you don’t know why.

There is a solution when you create one and decide.

Listen to the sound of what’s around.

There is nothing that can hold you down.

The power to be is inside of you and me.

The decision is clearly not always free, if your charging yourself a moving fee.

To move is free, the charge comes from the time you take to decide, you’re not in control of others lives.

There is a charge we put on our life.

We add a debt of shame and guilt, worry, procrastination and pain felt.

All of these things add up inside like an overdraft waiting to arrive.

When the overdraft comes through, remember it’s all about what you chose to do.

Throw off your gloves, your coat and hat, get down to the basics and pay off more than the draft.

You’re the only one with this account and the password is, YOU!

To Be Calm and Still

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

2014-05-02-15-59-37

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!

Is it You or In You?

Smile, share, talk, walk, run, swim, sit, stand, go, stay, be, do, live, love, laugh, joy, insecurity, hatred, acceptance, fun, filled,limited or stuck, judged or judging, are you these things or are these things in you, one way can evolve and grow and the other will stay.

Kerri Elizabeth

Into the depth of our growth, there must be a tearing of fibers, a separation that yearns to draw contact back to a new and stronger connection.

As the muscle stretches to its capacity it is able to push just slightly past that in a calling to be stronger and faster.

Pushing past the comfort or the idea that this is all we can do is simply a personal limitation built from a support system that has been shared with us from others such as societies, systems, religions and labels.

We have been given permission to stop where we are at, to go back, to go forward, to stay in place, to think, to reflect, to gain, to lose, to love, to live, to laugh to give.

When the mind allows the connection to our thoughts to stretch beyond our given limitation we have chosen to own, the tearing of fibers is felt.

Our minds are stretched; our heart feels the fibers ripping to capacity, anticipating the unknown and delivering permission to hold up stop signs wherever we decide to put them, at a bend in the road, a long stretch or a standstill with more permission to stay longer there.

Our soul will often open and close to the made up fear of what may or may not be there, often challenging the partnership of heart, mind and spirit in a hurricane of internal chaos, holding us hostage from more.

The thought of more turns into an indecisive exchange of confusion between our thoughts creating the idea of good or bad, also leaving us idle to growth.

Change occurs in the letting go of another’s idea and allowing your own tearing of fibers to be your growth, to listen is not to own, to own is not to live, to live is not to be limited.

Capacity beyond our thoughts is infinitely available, there is no limit, no tearing of fibers is felt by just the notion we must feel pain to grow, what if growth and pain were one, what description would you choose?

Sunshine on your growth every day, where is your root system attached to and are you growing it or have you delegated it to employees of your heart mind and spirit at the cost you’re in debt scrambling to pay others?

Sunshines!!!!

Love IS and Always IS

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

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.

Let It Flow To Grow

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

The streams flow is beyond what the eye sees, touch the legacy of the purpose it shows.

Kerri Elizabeth

Calmness and serenity play hide and seek with the ever amazing beat of my heart.

A feeling that has become one with a thought flowing smoothly like a stream over mossy rocks.

There is no sense or doubt it has a beginning or an end, it has become one with my soul at every bend.

As my soul awakens and my mind becomes more aware, the beat of my heart starts to invite truth or dare without the rush of terror there.

The mere awakening the stream never stops and the moss will never die in the exchange of life and the purpose it holds, opens up a mystery to unfold.

The stream does not lead the moss’s direction or tell it to stay or to grow, nor does it carry the responsibility of the moss’s flow.

The stream of emotions that flow, connect with a thought we often deny we know.

The visual and the sound we hear are part of the stream and flow in continuing to grow.

When seeing beyond the streams flow to the purpose it has there for us to let go, then we gain the freedom of heart and soul.

We live forever in the lessons we leave, in the love we show, in the path we clear for others to go.

It is not me or the stream that is the purpose of life, it is the life of the stream in you and me that leave the legacy for all to make a choice to see.

It is purely and purposely the flow of the stream that leave a legacy for more life to begin.

See beyond the words and the eye into the purpose of life and the depth our soul wants to fly.

The stream does not stop flowing when you enter into its knowing, a streams legacy of flowing is part of the purpose in knowing.

Shining sunshine without a shadow on courageously seeing beyond the eye to the source that gave us life.
