Typically my morning inspirations or thought for the day starts when I arise in the morning and have actually had something to think about. It could be as simple as looking outside, watching the birds or reflecting on a conversation or a tv show or something. But funny thing, I didn't hear a chirp, a cricket or anything of the kind. No, this morning's thought came more fleeting than any other thought, almost as quickly as my feet hit the floor. I figured it was a prompting of wisdom of sorts to release into the earth. And I've learned that those promptings are the most impactful for the longest. They don't feel like anything, they may not even jar any type of emotions. But they express something that the earth wants to move into the circumference of the human ecosystem that perhaps we are interconnected. As my elders say, this means the wind is about to shift. I often laugh at those sayings and wonder why I mention them but I'm learning as I grow older that there is something very sincere and genuine behind it these age old sayings. Perhaps it's experience I don't know but I remember when my doctor talked with me about love and how it shifted my paradigm of thinking and the subtlety of my grandfather's acknowledgement confirmed it.

And this morning I wanted to share this with you...

Let not a woman be conniving or lacking in self-love. But let her be honest, pure, and lovely. For then she has the comfort of leaning on her maternal intuitions that all women are given at birth.  Be good to her because she has already kneeled early that day in rising so that by the time you get to her, she's prepared to love you. For at a woman's feet is heaven and her wisdom is beauty from on high. For a man who lacks wisdom and is blinded by his ego and pride will assuredly cause destruction. But he who knows the truth can tell you of all the nourishment (mind, spirit and body) he's gotten from the honey comb and oh how sweet it is to be loved. But he who knows not of this wisdom holds his head in shame. ~and this my friend were the fleeting thoughts while the dew was still resting at dawn

Moments in Love (I shared this with you in 2013) I thought it was a great way to say hello again and wish you Happy Valentines Day

Moments in Love (Reflections by Taneisa Grier) Real & true love isn't sacrificial. Only fools choose to loose time for tomorrows that aren't promised. It's our "todays" love that even carries us to the future love. Find me a "man" who’s experienced health and prosperity and see if he discounts love as being a measure of that blessing. To each its own though. But for me-bid me a love that is true and sweet. A memory of a portion of "good" love may seem like forever in a short span of time. The feeling never leaving and the essence of a touch, though fading still remembered.   "I traced his steps back to the place" where I first exhaled and realized the beauty of this moment is in the feelings that I carry away after the exchange. If fleeting, we might call it lust. But if this pure moment is lasting, we have just seen the love of God in each of us, mirrored reflection of "on earth as it is in heaven". Might I be a b...

TO THE GRADUATE 2016

TO THE GRADUATE 2016 August 1, 2016 To myself, students, and life learners who understand the value of education, knowledge and wisdom. Getting to graduation feels like a voyage with topsy turvy winds. You finally get the hang of it and realize wow I made it –destination arrived. The last day of your final class come and gone or in the fast approaching and the walk across the once elusive stage is near; it’s actually within reach closer than it’s ever been. The day to change the tassel on your graduation cap to the left has arrived. The last door to the academic building you spent the most time in closes behind you. It was designed with lecture rooms and they happened to house many of your secret dreams over the last 4-5 years. And the sometimes sun shadowed hallways lead the way to several doors that will take you to success and journeys which lead to accomplishments.  photo courtesy of the internet The Commencements both an end and beginning to the possibilit...

Where to...

Thought for the day Ethics should not be reduced so low that we ravage the innocence, moral character, or integrity of society. To do so is to morally bankrupt the fabric of our existence. You don't want to look around and have to wonder if there is anything good left to hold on to. I'll tell you the truth, TV has really opened my eyes. As I've said in previous posts, I've never been a big TV watcher. But the past several months has been a provocation of sorts. Many revelations have been positive and insightful but a great deal more have been heartbreaking. Albeit most shows are meant to entertain but, they still create opportunities to learn, often indicating we've got to check our internal compass to make sure we are headed in a positive direction, making our world a better place to live.
