Matriarchs of the New World
“Matriarchy is a hidden river, rising to bring balance in a broken world”. These words, from my-real life hero, Gina, stir something deep within my bloodlines. Gina, the 52 year old woman who didn’t just survive ten weeks solo in the Tasmanian wilderness for “Alone”, she did it with HEART. She did with the depth of attunement and the power of a woman who takes her place in the wild. Knowing she is not here to overcome her environment, but to connect with it. One creature amongst many, listening with her deep intuitive waters.
You’re not broken
Fuck this parenting gig is hard!!! Yes, that’s right, I just started my first blog with the F word. I’ve taught my kids that swear words are not inherently bad, they just need to be used in the right place, for emphasis! When my 6 year old stubs his toe and says “shit!” I have to admit I feel a twinkle of proud. I’ve been parenting for 13 years now (where’s my medal?) and I wish I could say that its gotten easier…
All parts welcome here
Last full moon I cried for about a week.
A different type of type of tears. Those that know me well, know that “Heart Waters” is not just a FB alias. I’m a woman whose tears flow readily and recklessly… I can’t hold them in. A different type of type of tears. Those that know me well, know that ‘Heart Waters’ is not just a FB alias. I’m a woman whose tears flow readily and recklessly, I can’t hold them in. They are the song of my heart’s deepest aching, for all of life’s beauty and all of the struggle. A language of water that connects to all things.
