Honoring our Breath
She Breathes
We Breathe
Everywhere Water

We all live in our own little worlds
...most of the time.

 Let us not forget, however, 
we all come from the same ball of wax;
and we all share the same space.

It is time we pop our bubbles!
RECOGNIZE
that WE ARE all in this 
TOGETHER!

Love and Gratitude,
Alfie

Remember the Kazoo from Scooby Doo?
He would wiz in from outer space in a flash,
and just as quickly he was gone, leaving us with a little piece of wisdom and a lot of wonder.

Hummingbird, much like the Kazoo,
brings us a swift message.

Did you know that the hummingbird is the only being
from Pacha Mama's belly that is able to come to a complete stop from travelling at full speed?
AMAZING!

This is a very profound message from such a little guy.
Do you hear it?
As we barrel through this life toward some sort of non-existent finish line, it is important to
hover in the moment,
and sip from the sweet flower of life!

Love and Gratitude,

Praying Mantis comes to us with profound lessons, showing us how to still the outer mind and be within ourselves, drawing upon endless power: physical, mental, spiritual, or emotional.  That stillness can be simple contemplation, meditation, deep breathing, or even dreaming.

After the excitement and the busyness of the holiday, it is important that we remember to recharge.  Follow the Praying Mantis's lead, and go within to find your strength.

And don't forget to enjoy the journey...as that is all there is!

Love and Gratitude,
Alfie

Let us not forget where we are,
and why we are there,
Here.
Let us remember to live while we are alive!

It is crucial that we rediscover our connection with nature.  Our Mother's well being needs this.

...that can be a planetary gap or a very fine line...what is and what could be.  Let's make it a fine line, and enjoy the ride.

Amy and I went to a costume ball the other night featuring RJD2 and Medium Troy with the Bohemiam Dub Orchestra.  We decided to dress up as human beings. 

Amy's human suit is super sexy.  She had a hard time hiding her wings, so she pretended they were part of her costume.  I decided to cover up my third eye with an old Grateful Dead bandana and call it good.

We had a blast playing in our human suits...dancing, singing, imbibing the beautiful energy being created and swirling about.  Feeling breath move through our bodies, moving our bodies with the vibrations.  Completely giving ourselves to the 'Now' experience...Surrender is Bliss!  To letting go and feeling the Love!

Love and Gratitude,
Alfie

I mentioned something about a rotten apple not being much of a gift to give in the last post.  It caused me to flip the lens and look within.  I certainly don't want Amy taking a big bite of rotten me :-)

Tough thing to do...look at yourself.  Most of us avoid it at all cost (besides the mirror of course), opting for the easier of our choices...focusing on everyone else.  I am certainly guilty of this more than I care to mention.  I mean, when it comes down to it...I love people watching!  Definitely a favorite activity, and it often goes hand-in-hand with a bunch of useless, unfair judgement...the peanut gallery.

Enough with the Peanut Gallery!  Let's look inside!  It is said that the things that most bother us in others are aspects of ourselves that we are to afraid to acknowledge.  So let's take an honest look at us.  Let's make sure that we like what we see.  It is up to us after all.

This week's drawing is me looking at me.  Take a few moments to look at you today.  You are worth the time. Do you like what you see?  Go from there.  Thanks for being you!

Love and Gratitude,
Alfie
