What is Joy?

Is it the anticipation of seeing one's heart? The thrill of dreams coming to fruition...the essence of one's life...fulfilling all expectations...the rush of sweetness, the culmination of fantasies come to life?

Is joy found in the smile of a child, watching an elderly couple holding hands on a breezy summer day? The sunshine and rainbows that cross our paths? The smell of the ocean, the whistling of the wind...the changing colors of the leaves?

Can joy be found in the eyes of your child? The passing of the days in tranquility?

What is joy? Can you smell it, touch, feel it all around you? Can you taste it, crave it, long for its touch?

What is dignity?

Is it being able to look yourself in the mirror? To know that you are allowing yourself a life worth living?

Is dignity found within your husband, in your wife...children? Can it be found deep inside your heart...do you live it? Feel it? Is it found in one's word? Your name? Family? Job?

Having integrity in all that you do, an infinite grace found within yourself conveyed by actions.

I love this quote by Albert Einsten: "The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to live."

What is Passion? (II)

Is it the tantalizing of senses? The breath upon skin? The taste, smell and ache of your beloved? An intensity which takes our breath away...challenges us to savour life...grasp it with everything we have...what we are...who we become...

Is passion found only within the raw flesh...discovered solely within the eyes of one's sweetheart? Hearing the beating of their heart...aching to be held? A merging of spirits?

Or can it also be found in the creation of a cause? The stirring of the soul for something far greater than oneself? Crying out at the injustices within our world?

Can passion be found as we age....does it diminish with the onset...as we become travelers through time? Is this lost, is this love gained?

What is Faith......










Faith stems from many things but primarily within your heart...your soul...the two are intertwined...so much so we can forget where one ends and the other begins.

Faith means trust..love and devotion...it can be faith in God, faith in someone, faith in oneself.

Being able to release control and understanding that no matter what happens, good or bad...you try and accept what happens and if you can change your circumstance for the better---so be it.

Faith is diverse, a complexity of emotions and even physical strength. Faith is not simple...but has layers for which we build upon in order to continue the diversity of ourselves, in our sense of being and humanity at large.

Faith is the betterment oneself and ultimately in humanity...

What is a kiss?


More than just a touch of lips...but a meeting of souls...two hearts passionate for the other...feeling the breath of the other...slowly dipping to meet with intense anticipation...light, breath, touch, sounds...all encompass the first kiss...a delight to behold...a moment to remember...a kiss can be more than what you want it to be or less...a beginning to something grand...whatever you wish it to be...a crossing of boundaries, a delight to the senses...opening of hearts once embittered by the past but seeking new hope to a new and wondrous beginning...

What is Friendship



Friendship which develops from respect....can lead to passion.

Friendship that develops from faith....can last a lifetime.


Friendship which creates joy....can move mountains.

Friendship that contains desire...can lead to ecstasy.

Friendship which contains laughter....can lead to joy.

The essence of friendship beings with that first step of wanting to share your life with someone of a kindrid spirit...--not being afraid to walk down the road with that person...see what is there...finding someone who understands your joys, your sorrows...who only wishes you the best in life...who wants to see you succeed and is there for you to help you through the darkest of days...and will share in the sunshine of joy, hearts open and giving.

What is Passion?

I decided to post this since I liked the way I wrote it:

Picture of pink roses.

Passion is the melding of two hearts and minds...of the essence of souls...a respect found only in two people who desire to find happiness, contentment and joy with one another.Passion is the embodiment of long foretold hopes, dreams, desires...which two people can share.

Photo of two lovers walking on the beach at sunset.

They look forward to the other's company and miss that person when gone...passion is the touch of the skin, the feel of the lips...the senses reeling from being so near to the other...passion finds itself embroiled within the blood..the beating of each heart, the intake of each breath.... Passion can be found in the eyes of the other person...in the smile, laughter, tears....is more than just physical intimacy...it is a spiritual connection found only within the soul...blessed by God and graced with joy...
