What I Find In Friends ...


In my friends' eyes I see an expectation for great things and in their hearts' .. I see a devotion to making it all a reality. I even compute their occasional confusion in this way and together we make each day better for us all.

We experience forgiveness and willfully do so, because we are aware that there has been or will be a time when we too need to be forgiven.
When we are called towards kindness we turn and welcome it. We take nothing for granted.
We help each other to rise up and put our hand out even if it is not needed; so each knows that the other is there.

We share uncontrollable laughter and wonder why the whole world isn't in on the joke.
We share our sorrows sometimes publicly and also silently. We are simply devoted to sharing.
We know that there are no guarantees and show up anyway in any way we can.
We say thank you to each other and we know that love is not a four lettered word.
We are devoted always in all ways.

When we say " I love you..." It is never followed by " but..." Because love is unconditional.
We are honest even when the truth hurts because we are willing to stand there and soothe that hurt away.

We make no assumptions and do not ever attempt to force that which does not fit.
We know that this thing we call " friendship" between us is the choosing of family for our individual selves.

We have the thrill of the unspoken and the aim to be greater to the world than we each deserve from it.
We know how to solve each others challenges or just listen to what they are.
We respect each others privacy and will applaud publicly our open achievements as the need may be.
We do not laugh when the other has forgotten the words to a song.
Instead we remind each other of the melody, the words we remember and dance to what we declare the remix.

We recall that we are all spirits having a human experience and know that it is okay for some to be higher than others.
We are brilliant, we know it and we share our light so that it is paid forward.
We feel loved and are safe with each other.
We support each others endeavors and are as happy for each others success as if it were only our own.

We hug each time we are close enough to do so and deeply as if we will never have another opportunity.
We pat each other on the back and look on the other in the eyes as we share our stories.
We recognize the treasure that is sharing the same air in this time; breathing together.
We know that there is no such thing as alone and stand firmly in being " all one".
We understand that our friendship is sacred and we cherish each other ( time, company, thoughts, space).

I wish you such a friend in your life and more so that you are that friend to someone else.

Namaste!

LETTING GO....

  L-E-T-T-I-N-G    G-O You have seen these words before..yes? Very simply written in nine letters. “L e tting  go .” Why does it make you uncomfortable?  It is simply an action that you as a human being experience every single day, just by physically and chemically existing.  It is an action that occurs when you have complete trust in your intuition ; that heaven sent voice inside of you. You know the one you may not always agree with, but the angels are so fond of you ..they send it into your ears, head, heart , and sometimes your eyes? If you are reading this your eyes open and they shut very quickly ..it is called "blinking" but in fact it is letting go and it happens very quickly. As we blink old light goes away and we allow new light to come in …seeing the next moment. As you turned on your computer or device you may have pressed a button, touched the screen, flipped a switch. As you clicked on your mouse, stroked and released keys on the k...

The Things I will do Before You Are Gone....

Fully aware of how precious life is and remembering the tender, exciting and amazing muses that I have been blessed and no doubt favored to know.. I wrote this list. Enjoy it. Create a life you love. The Things I will do Before You Are Gone.© By Adrienne Wallace (June 2008) 1) I will tell you, "I love you more than anything ...except GOD." 2) I will squeal with delight when you have achieved something new or gotten more of what makes you happy. I will stay as you pursue your delight and be a part of you capturing it. 3) I will steal your pillowcase when you are out of the room and replace it with a fresh one. I will put the one I steal on my pillow so I can smell your essence when I nap or sleep. 4) I will hold your hand even if you were 'just my manicurist' and look into your eyes and say "Thank You"... Maybe you're touching hands all day, but I want you to remember that mine appreciates yours. They are so warm 5) I will wish you t...

Where Did It Go? The question that comes when ownership is lost.

" Where Did It Go? " This is a common question asked about time, goodness, old regimes, and old relationships, memory and other than that... money and misplaced keys. Where did it go? We hear this amongst those of us who have not set a strategy and intention for what we have. This also the question that comes particularly from those of us who become all too confident in what we have but do not own. Ownership of one's talent,work, innovation, relationships and contribution is either an old or new concept in many places. What is encouraging is the ability to list our criteria for ownership and then be honest about what we truly own. Here are a few that I was thinking of today: Ownership of material things - You paid for it , don't owe anything for it to anyone Ownership of relationships - You tell the truth, engage with grace, and express mutual respect without excuses or references to what does not apply to the person you are relating to Ownership of innovation -...
