Hidden opportunities to experience more of our world's glorious wonders... I was woken up at 5am this morning by a buzzing mosquito, which isn't the greatest way to wake up!... BUT... when I saw the time, I looked outside at the lake and the sunrise was beckoning me... Mist was billowing over the mirror surface of Royal Lake and the sun was radiant with fire colours... My entire family reunited from out of province to celebrate our mom's milestone birthday, and spending a few … [Read more...]
♥ MIRACLE OF THE DAY ♥
Various art forms created to preserve and convey traditional teachings about the harmony between the stewards of Mother Earth/Nature and us humans... whether through stories, poetry, paintings, carvings, dances, etc. This whale bone pendant was carved by a Polynesian man (known as Ben Muti) who sells exquisite pendants he creates from cow horn and bone, petrified mammoth bone as well as special ones of whale bone. Each one conveys traditional symbols with great meaning. I love that the … [Read more...]

Hearts abound in Nature!... Every day, no matter where I am, I see heart shapes in the natural world... Leaves, clouds, rocks, seashells, branch formations, flower petals, bird formations, ocean bubbles... and the list goes on... I'm sure you can add your own to the list also. Our natural world has a healing frequency that vibrates at the level of love... it radiates what created it - Divine love. I find it so beautiful that heart shapes appear everywhere - a visual expression … [Read more...]

Nature-inspired and co-created works of art are my favourite type of art... Whether using natural materials to adorn oneself or decorate spaces, sacred geometry to create architecture, or images of nature to create visual masterpieces... from simple to elaborate, it appeals to me aesthetically and delights my heart and soul...! I received this gorgeous Hawaiian lei made of multiple types of flowers blossoming on the Big Island, and it's not only visually beautiful, it also celebrates a … [Read more...]

The creative fires of our awe-mazing home in the universe... To experience the presence of Mother Earth's creative fires that burst as lava and fumes from her liquid heart is absolutely awe-inspiring. I had the privilege of seeing Halema'uma'u Crater within Kilauea Crater during the day and then again at night (with a glorious hike within Kilauea Crater in between) with my dear Soul Sis Eva and Soul Brother Lee... It was simply WOW...! I've combined my photo of the glowing … [Read more...]

Every life form is sacred, regardless of our perspective. Each has a divine purpose and how we perceive each other is a very individual, personal thing... What one considers ugly, another considers beautiful... What one considers too wild, another considers inspiring... What one considers plain, another considers exceptional... What one considers amazing, another considers repulsive... What one considers perfect, another considers defective... We all have unique perspectives and … [Read more...]

We just never know who might be co-existing with us in our environment, regardless where we are!... I was quite surprised to encounter this pretty snail this morning, just a few yards away from the lanai door. I hadn't seen one yet on the Big Island and this one was SO obvious, approximately the size of a Brazil nut in the middle of my path! I love spirals and so this little being's shell (in which it was hiding when I discovered it) was a delight to behold... Who might be sharing your … [Read more...]

So many wonders grace our world - the more we focus on them, the more of them we see and experience... I was in absolute awe when I arrived here on the Big Island of Hawaii five weeks ago... and my view was this glorious Jacaranda tree (seen from the Jacaranda suite of Home Heart Hawaii). I was used to seeing lilac bushes of beautiful colours of lavender, but this is a HUGE tree, making that much bigger of an impact!... you can see a picnic table and seat beneath its large branches (they … [Read more...]

A courageous little bird brought me to tears today... After leisurely enjoying the sights, sounds, aromas and textures of Pu'uhonua O Honaunau, I felt guided to spend some quiet time at the picnic area a short walk away by the ocean... Amazingly, for a Friday late afternoon and evening, the space was vacant! It felt like such a sacred space between two giant trees overlooking lava stones and the endless ocean!... Then I knew I was right where I was supposed to be when a beautiful … [Read more...]
♥ MIRACLE OF THE DAY ♥
Another gloriously awe-inspiring sunset over the ocean, seen from Home Heart Hawaii last night on Mauna Loa!... I'm always so fascinated by how high up I am here!... When I see an airplane flying in the sky at eye level to me or lower (!), I realize all over again that I'm as much on Mother Earth as I am immersed in Father Sky!... Mountainous vantage points are quite magickal!... ❤ ***ENJOY tomorrow's powerful New Moon and Solar Eclipse!!!*** With love and wonder-filled … [Read more...]
