In the Meadows

Does Ease still know my name?

Though I wandered in the valleys of doubt

In the shadow of strain

Swam in rivers of anger

In rage and loathing

Does love still know my name?

I toiled in the mines of Ugly

Tearing away at the walls of disease

Does the light still know my name?

They said, go. Unearth yourself.

Be unafraid of what you find.

And I walked through walls of wind

Head down, my whole body

Fighting against the strength of their power

In this, after this,

Does Ease still know my name?

Can I sit in the meadows of life’s beauty once again?

Will it have me?

In the bright yet gentle sunshine-

Knee high grass and wildflowers

Sitting on the seat of the divine,

Will it still have me?

Do my battered limbs and coal-blackened face

Still have a place

In that meadow?

Will it still have me?

I have over 18 years of experience doing intuitive readings. I've done extensive research into metaphysics, the occult, and faith based religions. I regularly practice meditation and kirtan (devotional yoga). I acknowledge that our lives are made of the seen and the unseen and that Truth is a moving target. I can say only a few things with great conviction after all I have lived. One, life ebbs and flows and it is always up to you to come back into your light. Use every resource you can! Two, the source of all things is light and freedom. You are free to believe whatever you choose to believe, only you can convince or disprove your own ideas. Three, we are dynamic, enigmatic beings. Though society would like us to stay in certain boxes, the truth is we can't. I am so much more than a reader. I live my life with robust joy and great curiosity. Four, I have always been in touch with something that is beyond our conventional ideas of life. I always felt something beyond my five senses. There is a part of me that relishes in diving into the depths of existence. Into those lighter layers of perception. I like feeling where the flow of life is moving. And I truly enjoy doing it with others. Lastly, I am a lover at the core of my being. I love devotional practice. I love adoring the world and everything in it. I seek to shine my light wherever I go. Of course we experience hard times, I just make the absolute most out of all the other times.
