Responses to Day 2: the Winged Heart....


Artist, Sis. Soraya

Greetings Sistahs,
This is like a post-post or is it a pre-post?? I think it is an in-between post... Ok, I got such WONDERFUL and BEAUTIFUL responses to yesterday's question:

"Where does your heart wish to take flight?" If you woke up one day like that little insect years ago and realized that the Creator gave you the magical proteins to fly, where would you go?"

An insightful day for me yesterday. I cannot wait to hear your interview tomorrow. If i had wings I would fly to the grand canyon and take in the space and vastness of it. Then I would go to Thailand and just recieve... massages, food and healing.. I think I would just travel communing with nature /mother earth...

beautiful entry. i'm also a mad scientist in many ways and lately have been feeling very connected to all the amazing birds that shower us with their lovely music and presence. the entire family is bird watching and getting familiar with the array of birds living here with us..not sure why at this time but it's a great respite from the everyday hustle and race of just living...it's really relaxing. i also painted a pic using a bird mama who was suffering from the bird blues..it helped me express some feelings around perinatal depression and loss. i hope to share with y'all. here's a haiku i wrote for us. a mantra. i plan to right a haiku everyday and share it here. peace mama's!


beautiful girl heart
flying to discover you
freedom is your right

I would return to Kemet. Back to the beginning. I would swim in the Nile and let Ra's rays kiss my skin. I would thank Nut for her moon and the stars from which I was born. I would admire the handiwork of my people---how Great the pyramids are. I would return to my Highest Self. My Goddess Self. I would create, love, worship, give birth, live, BE....but for now, my wings will take me into this warm bath of Himalayan salt and rose petals....

I must really be feelin the LOVE in this space because I am never this open with my thoughts/feelings. Thanks Goddesses for creating this space of safety/LOVE.
