I spread my bioluminescence self
you cannot contain me.

You see me before you can scent me
your reward is my presence.

I dim for no one
I am second to none.

Against your will
you are drawn to me

I light your way to see
your own destiny.

Small axe cut down big tree
that's me

On my wings you will be free.

Where You Are

I was just thinking about the fact that when we want to make a change, we feel sometimes like we do not have the tools or that we are not where we need to be to do this. If you are feeling stuck, how do you unstuck? Should you throw caution to the wind and get rid of everything that is holding you back? Or, should you sit and ponder on life’s wonder that has kept you in the same place for so long?

It is easy to cry and complain, but how about if we start where we are to plot our escape. What if we take a new approach, by not resenting people who care nothing about our lives at all because they are busy sorting through theirs. And even if there is a master villain in our lives why not go around or even through them to move further out of their reach?

Where you are is not where you want to be but your attitude there will determine how long you stay. I have come to realise that resentment and anger produce only bad fruits that will poison your optimistic spirit. Hope is good, we hope that things will get better all the time and they can when we begin to work towards those good things. Until then we are just dreamers waiting for our silver lining to be drawn for us. Stop looking at who is doing what, when and how and just focus on what you can do, when, how and where. Look at what you have and work with them, it will work.

For us to achieve those things we want to achieve we need to start where we are and move slowly sometimes toward it, to learn if it is really the right direction. So that if we need to we can pivot get your bearing and go where you need to get to.

Breadfruit Love

Breadfruit Love

I am your breadfruit tree,
I will feed and nourish you,
I will make sure to look after you,
and there'll be no one but you.

From shore to shore I will take you,
No leaks in the boat I make for you,
boil my hair and I will cure you,
give my heart and my love to you.

Like a tower I will gaurd you,
no storm shall disturb you,
deep roots that will anchor you,
keep you safe and protect you.

For there is nothing I would not do,
so my all I will give to you.
