Etsy

An online marketplace for selling and buying all things handmade!

It's like shopping at the artists market, but from your own home. I discovered the website just in time for Christmas and along with my trip to Blue Banana Market in Toronto, have managed to get almost everyone on my list home made gifts.


Every morning, when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand-new hours to live. What a precious gift! We have the capacity to live in a way that these twenty-four hours will bring peace, joy, and happiness to ourselves and others.

Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. The Question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We don't have to travel far away to enjoy the blue sky. We don't have to leave our city or even our neighborhood to enjoy the eyes of a beautiful child. Even the air we breathe can be a source of joy.

We can smile, breathe, walk, and eat our meals in a way that allows us to be in touch with the abundance of happiness that is available. We are very good at preparing to live, but not very good at living. We know how to sacrifice ten years for a diploma, and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on. But we have difficulty remembering that we are alive at the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive.

Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment. ... Thich Nhat Hanh

Shaktis Love


Uncoiling Herself I delightfully watch
The goddess snake awaken
This vigil of enkindling energy
Abandoning who I once knew .. forsaken.
It is here the fountain of Youth
Flows like a silent stream through me
Purifying the poisons of separation
Offering the sweet nectar of her tree
Hushed like an infant in the dark night
Shadows faintly hum my name
Coolly breathing down my back
She sparks my soul aflame
Her energy fiercely cleanses
Each and every cell of my Being
Breaking the barriers and bindings
This Light of God, Freeing
In supreme silence I sit effortlessly
A painter creates his art
This colourful love reaches & satisfies
Every corner of my infinite Heart
Hear Her gently singing
Hear Her chanting my name
Watch as my hands dance for her
Swaying to the heavenly song, One I become
Like a candle flame
Her song and loving grace
Live within me and You
Her omnipresent Love takes us closer
To a boundless love that’s evermore True
As the sun rises in my illuminated soul
As your ambrosia fills me like a magic potion
I surrender my Self to You my enchanted Goddess
My heart pure and with great devotion
