be present {a soul mantra}

be present (close view)


be present
a new soul mantra necklace from
the little room


bring stillness in
give yourself
(deep, wide)
permission
to just be present
in this moment
in this life
in your life

allow yourself
to experience
without the swirl
of distractions
around you
(within you)

notice how your breath
moves in your body
notice the beauty
of this moment
of this life
of your life

baby girl,
you are here
(right here)
where you are supposed to be
just let yourself
be present
and
live this life

live your life

oh my...
i so needed this right now...
as i sit here
and
indulge in a little chocolate
and allow myself
to let go
of what a disaster today was....

and also
i feel so much lighter
after sending you that email.
xoxo

Hi Liz,

Thank you for sharing your wonderful thoughts through words,
be present is all I try to do... your poem makes it so clear as to what we need to be doing.
Have you thought of combining your art and words in a book...
